I don’t need to play any fantasy day-dreaming “what if?” game with this team. The truth is in the standings at MLB.com. I see a team that is on pace to finish with a worse record than the 2003 Detroit Tigers. Your “what if?” game means nothing, but I’m sure JR, Getz, and Grifol would love to use it as an excuse.

6/27 Chicago Slappers vs. Atlanta Shredders 3:10 PM
WhiteSox2023 replied to DoUEvenShift's topic in 2024 Season in Review
What a pitching matchup for the ages. I wonder if it’s tough for Getz to decide on who to call up amongst all the studs he has acquired like Brad Keller, Jake Woodford, and now Chad Kuhl? -
No one with fucking basic common sense and reason would have expected Yoan, Eloy, and Robert to stay healthy so why do you keep bringing up this garbage? Benintendi was terrible last year as well and Vaughn has been mediocre every year of his career. Why the hell are you banking on injury-prone and mediocre players? Their record would be better but they would still be terrible. Congrats, I guess? You want a cookie?

Fletcher isn’t ready? Dude will be 27 in a couple months. He played last year and hit well in a small sample size. Getz obviously thought he was the real deal to give up Mena for him. If Fletcher isn’t ready now, he’ll never be ready. Which would mean he was a bad acquisition. My point was you just made up a complete and utter bullshit excuse for two of Getz’s acquisitions — that they somehow tanked with their bats cuz they had to play CF.
-
Fletcher and Pillar crumbled when they had to play CF? Interesting. Not sure how you can just pull this assumption out of somewhere… Fletcher hit well for the Diamondbacks while he playing some CF for them last year and Pillar’s bat sure doesn’t seem to be affected by having to play some CF for the Angels once he left the Sox.

Nah, JR is usually smoking a $50 dollar cigar and either blaming Sox fans for all of his supposed woes or laughing at how stupid Sox fans are as he puffs away.

Spot on. Only 19 strikeouts and a poor 1.42 WHIP in 31 innings. Shuster’s 3.48 ERA is the ball finding Sox gloves. He’s bad but lucky. Gowens has some nice strikeout numbers but he will be a 25 year old finishing Single A. I don’t see too much to be excited about but he’s the only player of value they got back. Soroka, Lopez, and Shewmake are all terrible and should be gone after this season. Hahn or Getz probably could have received a better return for Bummer by going for quality (1 or 2 prospects) instead of quantity like Getz went for, just to fill roster spots cheaply (and poorly).

Sorry, I was being sarcastic Lip.

Yes, and I don’t think tray intended it that way but I immediately noticed it and called it out in a post. But he also called me a moron so who knows? He has a bit of a temper. Better than being called a member of the KKK I guess…

So now I’m a member of the KKK because the census numbers are the numbers? You should be banned.
