Kopech is already turning back into the real Kopech in LA. Burger is, at the very best, a .750 ops DH. They're both pretty much trash.

Vaughn also started off putrid. He's probably a 1 WAR player when all is said and done. I'm just not as mad you guys. Every single bad thing that could have happened to this franchise actually happened. It's extraordinary. As trash as this organization is, it's crazy that Cease and Lopez were the only parts that actually worked out. Gio, Robert, Moncada, Eloy, Kopech and several other all turned into trash.

It seems like Vaughn and Benintendi have had really good second halves, but were just so bad that who cares.

This organization is impossible to "ball fondle." Hold on, why is "ball fondling" bad?

It doesn't seem like a toxic team or anything. They're just very under talented. That's why I don't really get the vitriol. The team seems like it's full of good guys that aren't very good at baseball. It's not the type of team that we should keep kids away from because the players are toxic. They're more like a team full of Crash David's than Nick Swisher's.

His bat is good enough to get him DH reps on Lee's catching days. He has plus power for a catcher and a plus, plus k:BB ratio.

I don't see the issue. If healthy, he's as ready as he's going to get. Getting a to travel with the big league club is an experience few players will ever get, even if it's on the worst team in history.

The main thing I'll remember from this year is that WhiteSox2023 found a way to post 6000 times in a year the site hit an all time low in traffic. That's seriously the craziest stat of the season.

Bummer had a 6.79 era over 54 innings when he was traded. Wtf were people expecting?

Unprofessional? It's baseball. It's not serious. They're making light of a shitty situation. I'm sure it made the 28 people who actually read Sox Twitter laugh.

So are the people sending those Tweets. They're joking.

Have a sense of humor.

So little is really understood about fitness, health and conditioning, that I don't think there's a whole lot to take from this. For years, the Sox were an extreme outlier in staying healthy and in the last few years have reverted to the mean. A good example of how little is understood about strength and conditioning is the philosophy of the US and Russian weightlifting programs. The Eastern Bloc programs were all about lots of heavy lifting, heavy reps, no diversity in exercises and little recovery time. The US programs were heavy weights, low reps, tons of diversity and tons of recovery. They were polar opposite programs and had very similar results over time. Neither philosophy was right.

He's only 22 and still showing an impressive k:bb ratio at an advanced level. It's still too early to call it.

That's just wild.

I'm cheering for the kids more than the uniform. They're fighting for their professional lives and their dream. It makes me sick to watch people gloat when they fail.

McDougal has such a weird release point.

Reylo was a stud his last 3 years with the Sox. Plenty of reasons to hate the Sox without saying stupid s%*#.

No, I trust medical professionals more than you.

The Sox are obviously a bad organization, but I'm still going to trust the judgement of a medical staff more than a group of 6 terminally online Soxtalk posters who aren't bored by posting the shame s%*# over and over everyday.

Did they say they never found a bone spur? They're just announcing the surgery today. That doesn't mean they didn't know about it already.

Literally nobody is saying Getz is doing a bang up job - literally nobody. A handful of us realize he took over the very worst situation possible. He took over a team where every single asset failed other than Cease and Lopez. He took over a team with a notoriously bad owner, hardly any MLB assets and a bad farm. What's he supposed to do? I wish we had a different GM, but I'm not going to hate Getz for the Sox situation.

Yeah, they're bringing Iriarte up to appease the 18 fans who even know who he is. Some of you guys need to touch grass. In reality, they're probably getting his feet wet in hopes that he pitches well, has a good Spring and might be able to fill a back end starter role next year.

Worst idea in the thread.
