I think they should knock down the ballpark and put up apartment buildings. The Park District has a right to not lose money on something only a few dozen people care about.

Levine interviewd the asst gm Saturday. After Levine great guy praised him and the future is bright talk. He said they hope to upgrade analytics. Rebrand and overhaul I've seen to. But no actually spend more mention.

What a mess. Fix it probably actually cutting spending I'd guess.

Buck Showalter sounds about right. He could throw bats into the shower room and call them lollygaggers.

He is exactly the kind of manager this team needs. Buck is good at getting teams from shit to good. He can't get them from good to Champions but getting them to good is priority 1.

Good managers are extremely rare. I count about four. Neither of them are in the world series.

I'm available.

The White Sox have a projected payroll of $70M in 2025 currently. It was $133M in 2024 according to Spotrac

Ethan Katz can't coach. He can't even show them where home plate is. If the Sox need me to show the staff where home plate is, I'm available. I'll put in those little utilties flags around it so they go, "oh yeah, now we remember."

He was a nice role player for the Cubs but is 34 years old. I don't think he's likely to repeat last year's production for the White Sox.

Seems likely that they are looking to move Benentendi/Robert...but they seem to be cornering the market on end of bench OF's that they are determined to use next season. These types of moves won't help them at the trading deadline either. Would much rather see them sign someone who was good, but coming off a below average season to a 1 year deal and try to move them, but they don't want to spend $$$. Getz is picking players from the bottom of the barrel and is probably being told he needs to cut further. It's all about the long-term. No excuse why they can't do both, but they have conditioned us into believing that we have to start over and develop.

The Marlins managed to turn Jake Burger into three decent prospects, the Sox got one useless pitcher for him.

He'll undoubtedly win a Cy and World Series for them and we get prospects we will trade.

The Burger trade was the last straw for me. Any person who knew anything about baseball knew that this guy was a very solid 3-5 hitter for any team. The list of guys who have hit over 60 home runs over two years is pretty small. Fuck the stupid ass White Sox. From the owner on down, they have the WORST BASEBALL MANAGEMENT IN MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL. NOONE IS EVEN CLOSE:( :roll: :roll: :oops: :oops:

Well now. There went our only all star and talent. Maybe we can call Roberts talented but he has all the signs of being a lazy piece of crap ala Moncada and I feel he will not get much in trade value. With Rinesdork in charge and wanting to take his money with him when he croaks, look out Nashville. Don't expect to receive any talented baseball people gracing whatever field of play this jerk-off will provide for you to watch. The possibility of a White Sox team ever competing again in major league baseball especially as fucked up the league is right now is never going to happen. Find a high school or college to watch. Or support a girl's softball league. Whatever, boycott major league baseball and especially the Chicago/Nashville WhiteSox "club".

No worries, USA says they are just a couple tweaks away from competing
