The Mighty Mite Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 (edited) 2nd game in a row I have a hard time agreeing with the attendance figure. The Rate seats 40,000 and was more than half full last night and today. Edited August 24 by The Mighty Mite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 My favorite subplot of the season is the players they make sign autographs for the kids on the concourse on Sunday games. Two weeks ago, it was Vargas, Meidroth, Thorpe and Altavilla. Today was Korey Lee, Owen White, Tyler Alexander and Peguero. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 only 5th worst RD now. It's too bad we won't spend 40+ million as it sure as hell would get us closer to 80 wins than not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bro we need like 25 WAR from pitching. We are projected to have like 5. Even if you sign two TOR types for 20 million AAV we ain't even close to a WC. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said we could get to 80 wins, a wild card could be had for maybe 85 wins, the Mets right now are the NLs third WC and are projected for 85 wins. If the number was 90 wins, I would agree with you.

If you told JR he could have 4th place and $5 million in profits while declining the 2026 option OR $15 million in losses but a distant second place which option would he actually choose? It would definitely make Getz look like an idiot, but he did the same thing to Hahn with TLR over Hinch. Edited August 25 by caulfield12 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never understood how a guy pitches 4.2 innings leaves the game with the lead and a reliever comes in for 1 inning and gets the win. Maybe he gets a hold but the guy from the start should get the win. Edited August 25 by NWsideSoxfan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 Teams blew it in not offering the Sox a lot for Robert. Somebody coulda stole him. He's been healthy all year and when motivated appears to be special. The arrival of Colson seems to have woken him up. I mean when you are playing with complete stiffs like last year it has to wear on you. Now he has Colson around. Plus Teel is for real folks. Quero is tremendous and shoot me if you will but I like Tauchman and Beni. Tauchman has had a lot of good games and is light years better than somebody like Pham. Hope the Sox build around the core and spend a few bucks to contend. They have way more good players than last year to build around if they wish to do so. We all know the pitching staff isn't good nuff to do anything special. Nice win over the Twinks who own us normally. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
