Games are not played on paper; they are played on television.

Thats why there’s no shot in hell they become buyers. Way more likely to be sellers. That’s totally fine.

I agree. But who? Maybe bring up Gonzalez and see if he has any value.

We can’t sell the core guys so that leaves guys that nobody wants.

It looks like Rikku Nishida is being called up.

Don’t think the training staff had anything to do with his appendectomy.

He was joking since the training staff started getting blamed for a lot things by a lot of people who are ignorant and ran with the narrative of incompetence .

I mean the whole narratve that got so bad people were blaming the TJ surgeries on Bannister. People just making up stupid reasons to blame anyone for misfortune.

Or the runnimg arguments betwren ptatc and Lip. Everything got blown out of proportion by people without knowlrdge of any particular wrongdoing.

As far as actual malpractice and cases that go to court thats a long process and not sure if there have been any verdicts so its still extremely speculative. If there is one long article to point me to as far as a large number of training staff errors feel free to give me as much info as there is that is proof.

Offered without comment, from my November 2022 story on the State of the Sox where I spoke with a half dozen sources connected to the organization in various ways:

On the constant injuries 

“Alan Thomas (Author’s Note: Thomas was the Director of Strength and Conditioning) was let go because his son was draft eligible and he was told the Sox no longer wanted to draft sons of members of the organization. Turns out his kid is playing center field for the Diamondbacks. I’m not saying he’d be playing center field for us but he’s good enough to be in the Major Leagues. I don’t know the new guy they brought in, but guys are getting hurt left and right.” (Author’s Note: I had heard Thomas disagreed with the results of the Sox injury study conducted last winter which was never released to the media or public. I was told he felt the Sox issues were only caused by the COVID restrictions. “The Sox play checkers where others teams play chess” when it comes to injury prevention, conditioning, nutrition, sleep schedules is a phrase I had heard mentioned.) 

“The White Sox playing shorthanded started in 2007 when Jermaine Dye got hurt and Kenny Williams refused to call up Brian Anderson or Ryan Sweeney. Maybe they were cheap, maybe they wanted to protect Herm’s record of keeping guys off the DL.” (Author’s Note: Herm Schneider was the Sox longtime head trainer and for years the Sox were among the league leaders in keeping players healthy.)  

“Jake Peavy made the comment one time, ‘They have no reservations about playing shorthanded.” 

“You know about Mike Reinold right? (Author’s Note: Reinold is the White Sox Senior Medical Advisor) He was fired by the Red Sox because he was injecting players with Toradol.” (Author’s Note: Bleacher Report had a story on this situation published in February 2013. Here is the link to that story: https://bleacherreport.com/articles/1530943-ex-red-sox-trainer-mike-reinold-injected-players-with-controversial-substance)  

“Given the inordinate amount of soft-tissue injuries they have had you’d think that they would do a complete change in the training, conditioning and nutritional areas.”

I'll let others again reiterate their comments about guys being rushed back, Robert playing with basically one arm et al.

Didnt see anything there that could even remotely called proof do you ?

Like I said highly speculative. Not one player with a complaint against anyone mentioned so its just innuendo .
