  1. Can Shane make history and make it 5 for 5 on 0 ER given up by a starter? That would be pretty cool...
  2. This team is bad...but they seem at least like they have a direction from Veni and staff.
  3. only 11 teams in MLB history had starters allowing no runs in 3 games, and 4 in 4? Wow! Don't stop now boys!
  4. Hope springs eternal! Strap it on and strap it in...because we will all be sitting on it by June!
  5. Hello! I have recently been co-commished on our Soxtalk fantasy baseball team as someone needs to take a year off. It's a very competitive keeper league (only keep 3), and we need someone ASAP to fill a role. Any takers? We are going to draft on Sunday evening (I know...we are late). Thanks for anyone interested!
  6. Getz isn't it. Hopefully it doesn't take Jerry dying for action here.
  7. I am going to watch very few games...but the ones I do will be young starters, call-ups and late inning replacements for that very reason. Need hope or this is a completely lost cause until Jerry sells or dies.
  8. I am very interested to see where Teel ends up. i think Teel, Quero and could be a real good 1B, DH, C rotation, but interested to see whom sticks at 1st with Andrew most likely playing his last year with the team (I think he get's flipped for a weak prospect this summer). How this team doesn't have a real 1B prospect is just incredible. Elko, Wolkow don't seem like major league players.
  9. I have a die-hard Mets fan friend. His comment upon the news "it's not my money....weeeee". If you aren't a Dodgers or Mets fan, your chance of signing a marquee free agent has to be below 10%. This league is broken and honestly makes it so much easier to just let go being a Sox fan. Until Jerry dies there is zero point to even care.
  10. the mock ideas are going to ruin us all. i am NOT getting my hopes up that this will be a good trade.
  11. dumpster diving before the dumpster is even full. The Getz effect!
  12. Possibly the biggest disappointment in franchise history for a position player other than Joe Borchard? The hype just never was realized and outside of 1.5 years the bat was so frustrating
  13. This is the only team I am acknowledging from the organization this year 😬
  14. If they would have canned him at the all star break (which was the obvious solution) they dont get to a 21 game losing streak, nor are they definitely going to break the all time worst record. Getz sucks so so badly
  15. that is the thing about Benintendi....he doesn't have power...but he SHOULD be a .275/.340 guy every year based on his swing and body type. But Sox have either tinkered with his swing too much or the bad has rubbed off on him. Was it a bad contract...yep. Should he suck as much as he did first 3 months...nah.
  16. insanity is hiring from within over and over...
  17. Keith law actually doesn't mind the deal for all 3 teams and thinks the Sox got 2 everyday starters in Vargas and Perez (in 3 years). Still hate this, but at least he didn't shred them apart like i expected.
  18. I'm Done until Jerry dies or sells. f*** the Chicago White Sox.
  19. welp i will wait til we get official. but this might be it. Im DONE. trading multiple pieces should net top 100 returns. if we are going for quantity of 2B utility guys we are so screwed long term. Getz made maybe the signing of the offseason with Fedde, and didn't do a damn thing. Should have kept him if this is all we got back. I hate my life.
  20. Saucke has really fast wrist speed from those highlights (reminds me of Juan Gonzalez). very anti Sox long swing mashers.
  21. I am so pumped. I moved here last year and LOVE going to Pirates games. they are my new backup team, so them getting Griffin/Rynders and some great pieces we all wanted, I will get to enjoy them.
  22. teams are ALL OVER the board in round 3. shows you how weak this draft is. Only a small handful of BPA players so far
  23. Watch this video and cry about hitters. In 2026 the Sox will have the best young rotation in baseball. Pitching and defense wins championships. A bat would have been great, but this draft is weak and their track record with lefties matters. I'm good with this. Now if Jerry dies in the next two years, a new owner only has to buy a couple outfielders and they will be set. They are set at catcher - Quero SS & 3rd base have promise in Colson, Gonzalez and Ramos Wolkow is something. DH at the least. Baldwin is a wildcard. So yeah, they are gonna have to pay up for some outfield and potentially power, but the starting staff is cost controlled until like 2030. That matters.
