  1. I agree that tanking should be behind us. There are available people right now who would help us be competitive while giving up nothing.
  2. I hope the FO isn't afraid to bring up Robert & Madrigal a little earlier than thought. Being on a major league field with great players would probably develop them sooner rather than later. When we drafted Madrigal we were told he was the player closest to the majors. Playing with better players should help advance your development. It would also give fans something to be interested in. Sox are after all in the entertainment business.
  3. I get where your coming from. Winning is more entertaining than losing.
  4. Hahn might act when you least expect it. He said the money would be spent.
  5. With all of Tim Andersons community work and professional skills...if you can't make him known to the casual fan your not trying.
  6. I sure hope we have plans for McCann.
  7. That's why no one is held accountable. JR certainly cannot hold those accountable who agreed with him. To be clear...if I owned the club I would want to poke my nose into it as well. Most of us would. It takes a certain kind of owner to set the budget and step aside. That's the owner who can hold his GM accountable with a clear conscience.
  8. What did the Cubs give up for Chapman when they needed a closer?
  9. This is why people are unhappy with the Jon Jay and Alonso acquisitions.
  10. Please have more of these "And That's A White Sox Winner" forums.
  11. Giolito, Kopech and Cease all have TOR potential. Lopez has #2-3 potential IMO. An already establish TOR pitcher and another Lopez type would make us dangerous. The club would be very close to competing for all the marbles. Robert and Madrigal are key to speeding up the process.
  12. No question Abreu is at minimum a border line star. Wish we would just extend him or have someone overpay us for him. I'm good with either. Just don't take some nothing return for him.
  13. The Sox are in the entertainment business. When they fail to entertain someone isn't doing their job.
  14. Lack of accountability has been a problem in White Sox Land.
  15. I feel Kenny has been far more responsible for Sox problems than Rick. Kenny has one of the best jobs in baseball. Nice salary and responsible for absolutely nothing.
  16. Keuchel &Kimbrel are still available and the season is not lost yet.
  17. Someone needs to find the phone #'s of Keuchel & Kimbrel.
  18. Jerry will never work with a GM that wants only oversite from the owner. Hahn is a good soldier and probably works as well as anyone with our 3 headed management group. For Jerry's part... it's hard to hold others accountable when you play a major role in the decisions they make.
