The last thing the White Sox need is to have an infielder try to play out of position.

Hasn't the last few years of this lunacy taught us anything? Let the people you mentioned actually learn and become very good at the position they have been playing most of their lives. 

In two years time after another 100 loss season in 26 and the labor impasse derailing at least some of the 27 season, the Sox need to go out and actually gets some outfielders to go along with hopefully, Braden Montgomery.

How has it been a disaster for the Sox?  A lot of middle infielders turn into excellent outfielders.  That’s one reason why teams load up on them in the draft.  Thank goodness Vargas can play multiple positions.

I just love seeing some left handed young hitting finally. Love how he went down and pulled that hanger.

He’s a goofy, entertaining dude.  Great interview with WSD.

WSD kissing any and all Sox players’ asses is far too cringey to watch.  🤣

Kick a guy while he’s down?  He’s an adult man who got a $3 million dollar signing bonus to play baseball.  No one should feel sorry for him.  If he can’t hack it in the majors, he will be okay.

Also, who is “they”?  This is an open forum, where people are free to post wherever.  I didn’t realize you were the gatekeeper of this site.  Good to know.

Don't play stupid with me unless it's not an act. You've been here long enough to know how things work around here. 

Future Sox has always been a sanctuary from the s%*# talking that goes on in Pale Hose Talk. I don't know when that was established or by who but it is a thing .Ask any long time resident here. There is precedent around here to keep overly negative comments away from the Future Sox section. Just because you feel you are in the majority and have the backing of mods who are just as down on the organization as you are, doesn't mean you can flaunt long standing rules of decorum. 

And yes kick a guy while he's down . A small sample size of poor performance of whoever posted that small sample size of 3 hits in last 29 ABs that prompted your he's a bum stuff . You don't think I can follow a thread ? 

Do you hate him or yourself that you didn't have the talent to make $3M sure signing his 1st contract  , so that makes him fair game to be ridiculed ? That's so meatball using money as a barometer for attacking a young man who is just one step below the best in the world. You don't even sound like a fan unless it's of the Cubs. Hell some Cub fans are more gracious about the Sox than you are.

There was a balk called in every game this series, right? How often does that happen?

MLB seems to have no shortage of players with poor fundamentals.

There's also an insane amount of catcher's interference.

No, your post was ridiculous.  You are not a mod but yet are trying to be one.  In fact, I just posted in the Future Sox forum and didn’t burn up like a vampire in the sun.  If you were so adherent to the “long standing rules of decorum”, you wouldn’t chase around posters that you don’t like, whine and moan about their posts, infer that they are stupid, and call them a Cubs fan.

But that’s okay, Ron Willie, as you are the first person to hit my Ignore list.  I hope you do the same for me.
