Pitching staff has a 5.71 ERA Fangraphs advanced ranking 27th
The hitters have a .238 .302 .386 split Ranking 25th
Team defense no advanced stats yet but they are 22nd in fielding percentage.

20 guys have a 0 WAR or less. A few are gone. Some notables are Cease, Anderson, and Benitendi.

Gavin Sheets and Adam Haseley are top 5 players on this team. Sad!

Catching is a black hole. The only reason Grandal is a negative WAR is because he's TERRIBLE BEHIND THE PLATE. He can't catch and now he can't throw. Jesus Christ, enough already.


I don't want the current regime making any big structural changes and I don't have the stomach (I'm not sure many people do) for a full rebuild, but at least half the guys who are on the team this year, need to be playing somewhere else next year.

Tickets are already 5 bucks on StubHub. I'm definitely up for some cheap baseball later this summer.

Grandal leaves the game with a strained ego.

In the old days, someone who had knowledge of the seating charts could buy an upper deck ticket on StubHub and then carefully photoshop the printed seat assignment to a corresponding seat in the 300 section. Not that any of you would do such a thing.

Even though I'm a Cubs fan, I usually hit up a Sox game or a few every year when prices are what they are right now. A day at the park is fun, no matter if I'm a fan of the home/visiting team or not.

Keep your stank ass out of the Southside, Hawaiihawksfan. Cubs Cards tickets were six bucks Monday night.

Moncada is supposed to be back tomorrow. As I said earlier this season, its just not a White Sox roster move without a Cuban going on or off the IL. We'll get a 2fer tomorrow!

Dont buy anything yet.

Just show up like a minute after first pitch and those $5 tickets gonna be like $1-2 bucks.

You can treat a family of four to a MLB ball game for $4 instead of $20. Remember....good things come to those who wait! :thumleft:

Yeah. I called it watching the game with my son. They should have loaded the bases. No reason not to. As soon as this no hitter catcher came up, I said he's going to bunt and they will not get the out at home. sure as shit. Its okay since if they went into extra innings they were going to lose anyway.

I wonder if Uncle Jerry will go on tour lecturing on how to run sports businesses? Be a short speech:

1. Buy a team that has Michael Jordan.
2. Bam! Billion dollars.

Thank you. Good night.

Every team gets an All Star. I suppose it would be Robert? Maybe Giolito with a good month.

This year's Sox would be the perfect example of why every team doesn't automatically deserve to have an all star.

Giolito will be gone by then. He could be gone by Memorial Day if they don't start winning some series.

It was a heavily White Sox slanted call last night with Benetti and Pierzynski. I loved it, but I don't know how the people in Houston felt about it.
