I don't trust Rick Hahn or the minor league player development for another rebuild.

I truly don't think people are going to the games to watch baseball. Check the attendance on non gimmicky giveaway days, it's brutal.

Benneti must be trolling Stone with White Sox 2nd guessing.

Stone has ZERO to do with the performance of the ball club.

This feels like a post game firing of the batting coach. Fall guy for the embarrassment. Then it's business like usual after that.

Our 3 best hitters, what a half inning.

Selfish TA in full display

I'm going to raise my hand and throw in the towel on Gavin Sheets. Have to admit when one is wrong, and boy did I get fooled by that short run last season.

It's sad but I'm to the point in cheering for injuries in order to take away the Old Fart's toys.

Robert and the Sosa watching video as the dugout clears, I like to see that.

Or Memento

That was a better AB than of Leury's ABs all season.

Our specialty.

Nothing was routine from any of those plays.

Mullins is a better CF than Robert. Yes, I said it.

Their 7th inning reliever is better than anything we have. Meanwhile Rick tied up 30% of our payroll in our bullpen.

It's been like this for a while now, and they have been scoring runs.

Amazing how Abreu just keeps sucking it up and playing thru pain. That guy is built so much different, and probably more to do with heart than physically. For a team full of grapes, it's so noticeable. Build that man a statue the moment he hangs them up.

Yeah, I was ready to blow up myself but if he literally just walked into the clubhouse at 3PM when guys are probably already doing preparation then I understand why he isn't starting. However, what kind of damn travel arrangements did they get for him if Mendick was pulled off in the early part of of a day game? He should have been on an evening flight here or one first thing in the AM.

Reinsdorf put him on a Spirit flight and now the kid got here late to get the start. SMH

Maybe some financial compensatory loop hole with insurance that Reindsorf discovered.

Let's just thank God the two involved were not AV and TA. Since that is due to happen also.

I don't think they're promoting what has now become the team's prized prospect from AA to the Big Leagues without the intent of giving him the chance to claim an everyday role on this team. I think if Mendick by some miracle avoids the 60 day, he'll simply comeback and either go to AAA for insurance or Harrison would have finally been DFAd.

Well, you're answering your own question there. Part of the same bad hand you were dealt was not only the injuries but the unexpected regression by key players on the this team. Lucas, Moncada, Grandal, Eloy were expected to provide about a combined 20+ WAR. They've combined for -.70 WAR so far.

You have to re-adjust your bar based on the hand you're dealt. The Sox have been destroyed by injuries and yet still hovering the .500 mark. Making the playoffs and having a puncher's chance would feel like a huge win to me at this point.
