20 games below 500 and it's only the beginning of June.

This is horrendous even by Sox standards, a bleeping disgrace.

Bleep this permanent rebuild. Fire bleeping everyone, starting with that no good Kenny Williams.

Why does Rick Hahn still have a job? He's a bleeping loser.


I dont think you really grasp how a rebuild works. Would you be happier with a couple more wins? No matter what they were not going to be good this year.

This way they get another high draft pick and more of their young guys will be ready to go next year.


They have been selling the rebuild for years. The true rebuild begins when Williams and Hahn are both gone.


I wont argue with you on the need for Williams to be gone. I think that is long overdue. But I dont think it is fair to lump Hahn in there just yet. I think he has done some nice things and deserves the chance to see it through.

In the past they have tried to rebuild on the fly. This is a different type of rebuild. They tore the house down and are putting it back up. No guarantee that it will succeed, but you have to give Hahn some credit for taking a new route.

Agree with that.

However, today's lineup featured two sub-.200 hitters, and Adam Engel wasn't one of them. It's frustrating in that even when they play well, they often still don't have a chance to win.



THey pretty much have 4 decent hitters in their line-up and no team can win with a lousy bull-pen. There is no excuse for the White Sox to have a lousy bull-pen. That is completely on the general manager.

I was expecting to see the W Sox this year like the Braves are this year. Young exciting fast team. Their wins are FUN.

Is that going to be next year then?

Nope. The pitching staff is going to be very weak and they still will have big time holes in their line-up.

2020. Expect to see Kopech and maybe Eloy late this season but definitely next year. They need to build up the bullpen and find a catcher that doesn't have a needle sticking out of his ass.

By 2020 will there be anybody who cares? They are getting crowded out and it's getting worse.

Crowded out by who? They are making money hand over fist on 35th at what can only be considered their low point. Franchise is a sleeping giant.

How are they making money? I do not see it even though their pay-roll is as low as it gets. This franchise is a losing organization with as bad a major league roster as exists in all of baseball. Then expand that roster to a 45 man roster and it is worse..

:lol: :lol:
