June 13, 2025Jun 13 9 minutes ago, Baron said: It's not. Considering we've drafted and developed one position player into an all star for us in the last 30 years, it certainly seems more exclusive to the White Sox.

Civale: Oh, I think you misheard what I said. I said I wanted a FADE, as in a new haircut. Sorry for any confusion! Brewers: Too late. Civale: I'll go to the bullpen and be good. I won't complain at all. I swear! Brewers: Sorry, it's a done deal. Civale: *stomps foot* I hate you!

June 13, 2025Jun 13 Good luck to andrew. Quite honestly I hope he figures it out and becomes a good hitter. That being sad, he was never going to hit when he played for the White Sox.

June 13, 2025Jun 13 Inevitable, to move on from AV. I'm not sure we have the future answer in house, but AV had no real future on this team.
June 13, 2025Jun 13 Gavin has put up more WAR in 60 games in SD, than he did in 435 games in Chicago. Maybe it isn't the player at fault, but the organization and their choices?
June 13, 2025Jun 13 1 hour ago, southsider2k5 said: FIP of 5.53 could be scary coming here. His last 180 IP haven't been great, but a lot of that is related to a change in pitch mix that hasn't worked and has been odd - hes moved away from his slider which was one of his best pitches and hes moved away from his curve which is his best pitch. He's become fastball heavy. The arm talent and strength is still there. Edited June 13, 2025Jun 13 by Look at Ray Ray Run
June 13, 2025Jun 13 Another failed very high draft pick by this organization. Seemed like a nice guy but simply isn't very good in professional baseball.

People will say this is hindsight but I was leaning more towards Sheets if they were only going to go with one going forward in the offseason, basically just because of the lefty bat. However, I didn't really want to bring back either though, especially not Vaughn. Edit: this isn't like an "I'm pissed they didn't keep Sheets" post. Because I also doubt he would be doing here what he's been doing in SD. Edited June 13, 2025Jun 13 by Bob Sacamano

That Osik dude was probably right and Vaughn is just a lazy ass that took his talent and career for granted. Edited June 13, 2025Jun 13 by WhiteSox2023
June 13, 2025Jun 13 I do like that Barfield was giving quotes yesterday about how much of a professional he was while they were in the process of LAUNCHING HIS ASS.
