Vaughn should just start every count 0-2 and save us some time. -

Fletcher has been among the least of our problems. At least one thing is working a bit. -

Is this is a Chris Getz operation too? FFS boys get it together. -
Moncada out 3-6 months, Colás recalled
chitownsportsfan replied to Sleepy Harold's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I'd bet he's back playing games in the minors by the middle of June. I'd bet he's back in Chicago by July. I think he's going to be closer to 8 weeks than 12. -

I think so. And Vaughn trying to produce positive value is his own personal Vietnam, every summer. -
Bleacher Report ranks Sox MiLB system 3rd

It's been so smooth this year. I haven't had a single buffering or other stream issue. Pretty impressive given how s%*# NBA league pass still is. -

In 1700 MLB PA, Vaughn has -.9 fWAR and a 101 wRC+. He's more than a click away, he's a whole continent away. -

If Getz fails as a GM maybe he can try Dubai cloud seeder next. -
Bleacher Report ranks Sox MiLB system 3rd
chitownsportsfan replied to southsider2k5's topic in Pale Hose Talk
People on RealGM Bulls forum are at least saying "team competed" and "played hard" and "made it respectable" given all the injuries and they are right. Like the Bulls are not in any way a good franchise, but as a fan you can take some enjoyment out of being a tough competitor night in and night out. This White Sox team is getting ass blasted 8-1 or 5-0 most nights and is on pace to set the MLB record for most losses. Who the f*** would try and spin that positive? You can say that Getz deserves more than one offseason but that's it. Don't try and justify whatever the f*** this year's team is. And yes, even with payroll constraints, he selected this historically awful 26 man roster. -
Bleacher Report ranks Sox MiLB system 3rd
chitownsportsfan replied to southsider2k5's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Absolutely. That and as @southsider2k5 says we need depth in the system. Sox need to be hitting on some international signings and late round draft picks once and awhile, don't need to be finding stars but just a decent regular once a year that eventually plays in Chicago, from all sources, would be a solid foundation. -

chitownsportsfan replied to southsider2k5's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Even if you take this one guy's report at face value, we're still probably 30/30 in MLB talent. And as we've seen even having several top 50 type prospects and a top farm system is no guarantee of any success in Chicago at the MLB level. So while our farm is certainly improved it's just one of many necessary but not sufficient things that needs to happen before we field the next good Sox team. -
2023 College Football Thread
chitownsportsfan replied to Heads22's topic in A and J's Olde Tyme Sports Pub
Michigan got the corrupt, morally bankrupt NCAA's notice of punishment for Jim Harbaugh buying a couple hamburgers (in the NIL era, lol) and then telling the corrupt, morally bankrupt NCAA to f*** off. -
Good win for them last night. Our former buddy Frankie Montas walked the world and the Mariners shockingly were able to make him pay. Mitch Haniger has been great for them so far. Cal Raleigh, Julio and Crawford continue to struggle. Julio had some decent ABs last night so maybe he's pulling out of it. Crawford and Raleigh I think are average starters who had career years last season. In general, nothing has really changed with my opinion of their squad. They will struggle to remain around .500 unless Julio is like an 8 WAR player, and I just don't see it.

Beni and Vaughn have combined for -1.1 fWAR. This is our 3rd overall pick and biggest contract in franchise history. LOL sell the team. -
Is it wrong to want the Sox to embarrass themselves?

Chuck's paycheck depends on a certain tone whereas AJ's does not I'd imagine. -
