I find them no more credible than any other talk show masquerading as providing information to the public. I mean do we take John as credible as to what is happening in the White Sox organization because he knows everyone in it and talks to them regularly as a part of his job? Do we do that for Chris Getz or Jerry Reinsdorf? Of course not. They have something to sell, just like the Score does. The more controversy the Score can generate, the better off they are. They love every minute of this, because they know people are going to run over to hear what they have to say about what John has to say about them. It's their reason for existance.

Because the Sox have very little talent, and even fewer quality prospects pushing them. There are a couple of moves that should be made to get some of the more recent trade acquisitions on the roster to play, but when it comes down to it, if you cut those last three guys out of the pitching staff, who are you replacing them with?

Please do not ask me to equate "popular" with credibility, quality, or anything else in 2024, other than popular.

This ump has a Greg Maddux strike zone.

I mean at some point someone like Brooks Boyer should have told him to STFU, but that would require leadership.

Yeah he is never going to be a front line guy, but not everyone needs to be. If he can give you back of the rotation action, that's a win for a guy who you got as a 14th round pick.

Neither one of them are regarding anywhere near Witt.

Nice play by Lenyn.

This part I do agree with. Just shut up and ignore them, like they deserve.

The idea that someone can pick a fight with you, and then you are obligated to go refute them and aid their ratings is absurd. I get the not going on the air thing with them, but he would be so much better to completely ignoring them instead of treating this like some kind of WWE feud where you need the last word.

I mean you need to have losers in order to have winners, so...

Didn't see his first start, but Martin is moving the ball around nicely and keeping on the edges of the plate for the most part.

That is quite literally step one here. Step two is that it is working because John keeps shooting back and giving them validation and oxygen here.

What about them makes you think they are Witt?

It was a terrible call for sure.

"If I am not the worst LF in baseball, maybe I can get traded out of Chicago"

I would be curious to know who you think should be on the Bobby Witt Jr path in the Sox organization and why.

Say what you want about his announcing, the guy knows his stuff.

Well it is nice to see that Benitendi seems to be remembering how to play like a major leaguer.

Thankfully the Sox would never overdraft a guy based on where his dad is employed.

I have no doubt that Sheets finishes the season the major league roster.

Because there is room assume the worst about the White Sox AND the worst about a tabloid radio station.

Me too.
