the late great Bill Veeck, they don't make baseball men like that

anymore. I'm glad he was a part of white Sox history. thanks, douglas

 

 

Thats because most organizations have switched from creating a circus in order to draw fans to trying to win baseball games to draw fans. Again, it has been said before in this thread, why are you more concerned about the Sox being a headline silly story than winning games? If a manager and general manager creates a team that wins games, the headlines will be there regardless, without the drama

My introduction to this fine forum was not very pleasant . But now that we know each other,

I'm looking forward to a very good 2015 season. With the additions made so far, I hope

we're not done, there's no reason the Sox can't manage the front page all year. thanks, douglas

It's just because people like me use this place partly as an escape of "real life." There's no wife, no kids, no clients, no employees, no bills, etc here... And it tends to lead to sarcasm.

 

Seriously thou, I do wish it was 1992 again. Then I'd be able to create Google and would own the White Sox in present day. Damned it.

lol how did I miss this thread? Holy crap

if you don't mind, some newbies comes to the site and starts of

slowly. if one comes to this site, to start a fire and create havoc,

i am sure the other sox site, will gladly have you.

 

i think you are a troll. prove me wrong with quality post.

lol how did I miss this thread? Holy crap

one of my favs. haha

the other Sox site? I did find one powered by vBullitin, but it wouldn't

accept me because it didn't like yahoo mail. Maybe I won't be welcomed

here, someone earlier said this forum was for professional white collar

folks who know a lot of stuff about a lot of stuff and don't like being talked

to like a grandpa would talk to his grandkids. Anyway, I love the White Sox

and I like to reminisce about baseball characters like Bill Veeck. thanks, douglas

You are more than welcome to stay and post. We understand that you're a huge Sox fan and we'd love to have you around, but we also want you to be respectful of others' beliefs and opinions as well. There's no problem with disagreeing, debating, and arguing over points, but veiled attacks and insults are not allowed here.

Thanks, douglas

give me a break. these mods / admin are the best and impartial group

of poster i have ever been around. their tolerance for stupidity such

as you are posting is far greater than i would have allowed.

 

you are a troll. a once a night, skulking person who post dribble and

then disappear. prob reading what kind of chaos you can create.

 

~~~ edit -- i posted some improper usage of words. so i am deleting

this sentence. after thinking of what i wrote, i was wrong in this

sentence.

 

peace.

There's plenty of space, all we ask is that you be courteous and respectful of others' beliefs.

i will reissue this same question with the new year being in. what can

we look for from Hahn.

 

what kind of bench type, player do the sox should be looking for?

 

remember the soxfest is around the corner and spring training is

after that....

Add me one "Marcus Semien-like" bat for the bench/IF and I think this goes from a weak bench to a strong bench.

yeah that trade did hurt alot, but i can understand why it needed to be done,

i will be extremely satisfied if that help the sox get to the playoff and further.

 

i just wish, we as fans can get an idea from the sox brass, what is next. maybe

we will find that out in soxfest.

 

i was looking at the remainder of the free agents, there are a few names that

can still help.

not a troll, my real name is Douglas Rome and I do live in Elburn

and I am 68yrs old. I'm in the book, look me up. thanks, douglas

I'm not sure what book you are referring to but you are cool with me Douglas. You seem like a nice guy.

Welcome to the board Douglas. I used to haul garbage out of the Elburn Waste Management transfer station on Kesslinger Rd. so I know the town you speak of. I miss running around that area as its so beautiful and open. I need to move...

Welcome to the board. I'm new here myself. I'm a long time reader but recent poster because there hasn't been much to post about in recent years – at least not much good to post about. It's a lot more fun to speculate about how the White Sox are going to get better in the coming weeks.

 

As far as further moves, if a trade for Zobrist is too expensive, maybe Adam Rosales could provide a "veteran presence" while Carlos Sanchez or Micah Johnson settles in at 2B. Rosales could play late innings at 3B while Conor Gillaspie shifts across the diamond to spell Jose Abreu at 1B.

 

Emilio Bonifacio has been mentioned several times, and he could also fill that need.

as far as i am concerned, i think Bonifacio would be the ideal players.

 

but as someone said yesterday or implied, the cost fact may be a problem esp

if the sox are near their spending limit.

Phone book. Remember those?
