They might turn this thing around the make the playoffs. They might continue this trainwreck and lose 105 games.

Regardless, this is the most valid nomination of a sports team ever in the history of this board. This team is absolutely fucking putrid right now.

It seems so obvious that the best thing to do right now @ .500. And still in the mix for the division is fire cooper n Ventura..bring in guillen and whoever he wants as a pitching coach.

Great nomination. They need to trade Sale and Eaton, fire Kenny, Hahn, and Robin, blow the whole thing up and start over. Fire and trade everybody associated with 2016 White Sox. Hopefully Reinsdorf dies soon.

Wouldn't Ricky Rentaria be the logical choice?

The logical choice is anybody except Robin Ventura. Pull up a base coach from Kanapolis.

I think guillen could get more out of em.than RR..but Coop n Robin gotta go before they are too far back to matter.

I still have faith in the Sox. Apparently tonight's game wasn't a "Big Game".

Never hated a team like this before. Probably never will again, my relationship with the White Sox has been permanently scarred by this.

There are a few posters here who spent a good portion of last year saying the Cubs should have signed Shields instead of Lester.


Sox are not this bad and they arent 23-10 good. They can be decent.

If by decent, you mean .500, yes they can and probably will be. I still believe they will finish the season around .500 even a couple games over. Yes, I correctly predicted they would fall under .500 a while back and predicted their slide of the past 6 weeks, but a lot of that had to do with their schedule as well as some corrections to the mean for some players like Latos. But despite believing they will finish around .500, it's not a true contender and adding more salary in the form of older players like Shields who has dropped 2-3 MPH on his fastball since signing as a free agent with San Diego, doesn't make sense. They have too many older players past their prime. Getting younger players who are approaching or in their prime should be the goal. Yes, blowing it up would be the right way to go. But JR has never been one to do that. So the idea of bringing back Ozzie is one I agree with. It's a desperation move, but it just might work and it would certainly create a buzz. Interest would be restored and the downside really is insignificant.

There was no need to proceed any further after this.

Getting very discouraging watching these guys lately.

Took the dogs out last night and when I returned Shields was still throwing batting practice in the first inning.... felt like a half an hour.

Promotions at the park are awesome if you are bringing a 5 year old. Anyone going to Christmas in July?
