At what point do we start to believe?

It never ceases to amaze me that even when the team is playing well, there are so many people who spend so much time worried about what others think instead of just actually enjoying it, especially since we all know the chances of it lasting. For all of the talk of "not caring about what other people think" why is every other post, about what other people think?

1) We enjoy the baseball.
2) Person responds to our posts, mocking us for enjoying said baseball.
3) We respond, saying, "dude, I'm not seeking out your approval", or reasonable facsimile
4) You scold us, telling us to shut up and take it, tell us we're "gas-lighting", moving goalposts, calling people names, getting personal.
5) Other people on board pipe up about the bickering
6) We feel bad and stop, you continue on

Wash and repeat.

    Your 2026 Chicago White Sox.....We no longer suck!!! And for now, that is enough to stay in the Central race way deeper into the season than I thought. They have been way more watchable since Colson

  • I'm in the camp of enjoying this team because they are so much better than the teams of the past few years. I recognize they are still not a great team, but they are getting close to not bad. This t

And when will you officially believe?

The propagandists want everyone off the fence as soon as possible.

Defined positions must be declared.

Will they sign Seiya Suzuki or Imanaga, for example, before Dec. 1st...?

I don't care if you sit on the fence cross-legged or English style. Just make sense when I get a notification that I have a response to a post.

I hope it’s not a pressed spear or pointed picket fence.

Again, you just proudly proclaimed that when you get old, you don't care what other people think, yet here you are chasing people around still mad about what they think.

Again take your own advice.

My advice to myself is push back on the punks who troll me.

We need a SoxTalk dictionary. I’m sure I’m missing a lot more…

I said it earlier, in this thread. Declare your position now, it must be done, no delays

Acuña would have to be replaced by an infielder.

Does he though? He's played SS 4 times the last month. I know his innings at SS are minimal, but I think Antonacci could handle spotting Montgomery once a week. (Can also cover 3B and 2B which Acuna has started 0 games at)

In more likelihood you could do Chase SS Ant 2B on Montgomery off days

Yet here you are insisting people agree with you, otherwise you will chase them down to mock them, all of the while telling us how you don't care.

On any given day, they have a catcher, 2 OF and Acuña sitting on the bench. If they lose Acuña for Pereira, say, they have 0 (zero) IF on the bench, and Antonacci is the sole backup.

I can only assume you do this last word game in order to generate more posts. You know that mirrors work for you too, right?

Keep assuming.

Get rid of whoever you need to, to assure Colson is the only starting SS on days when he plays the field. Jfc.

What are your thoughts on Jacob Gonzalez and bringing him up to replace Acuna?

-(Pick one of the AAAA OF's)

+Braden Montgomery
+Jacob Gonzalez

I'd have Gonzo up for Acuña yesterday. I think they'd like a RH bat, but they're pretty LHH heavy in AAA. I'd be surprised if B. Monty's up before ... July 1(?) I thought they'd leave him down until after the TDL, but if he's hitting and they're actually in a divisional race, maybe they try to tutor him while in the bigs.

No point to bring up Gonzalez and just park him on the bench.

He's not going to replace Meidroth or Antonacci at this point...or Vargas at third.

Psh, phone? I haven't had access to Soxtalk on my phone since like February. Absolutely blows.

Strange - the only place I access Soxtalk from is my phone. Works fine… even created an app icon for it.

Well lucky you.

They gotta fix it. Ever since the update. My Soxtalk consumption down like 1,000%.

Did anyone share if there's a "jump to last unread post" button like they used to have? I'm exclusively on the phone.

I can't seem to find that since the update and it really impacts my Soxtalk consumption; I want to pick up where I left off in a thread, not just go to the most recent post and have to arrow backwards. But I'm also an idiot and I'm probably just missing it.

As long as the Sox don't play him at Shortstop over Colson, I'm fine with it!

The default changed, you have to change it in your personal settings.
