Gleyber Torres is the one with the lazy play in the first place…blaming Rizzo for its pretty rich.

More internships again?

Four seam fastball and hadn't pitched since Sept 18th... Boone just said it was going to be hard to double up Ohtani w/ Tim Hill likely to induce a ground ball...

Gotta be kidding me. Kirk Gibson II 36 years later...1988 WS.

Uribe-esque catch there...Jeter, etc. Ohtani out. Second and third. Should have tied the game. Pitch to Betts? Nah Freeman. Bases loaded.

Should have been first and third if not for the slip on the base paths by Lux... Chris Taylor in as a pinch runner. Cortes pitching against doctor's advice...fwiw.

First Penn alumni since 1912 in World Series...Jake Cousins

Jake Cousins to close it out? Getz slight misfire there...how much cash did JR get back? Not enough to erase Maldonado. Lux's lack of stellar defensive instincts showing up as well this inning. Dodgers left two runners on third with one out in the late innings as well. Of course Edman and Ohtani due. Cortes and ex Sox Tim Hill warming.

Can't give Chisholm two easy stolen bases. Now three in one inning...latest by Volpe.

THernandez Muncy k*** W.Smith Lux due up...

Edman Kopech Kahnle...Sox fingerprints all over. Treinen slider vs. Judge coming.

Oops or nope...?

Edman just saved a run. 2-1 NYY lead on a massive Stanton homer that was higher than the light stanchions.

So much for the death of starting pitching Greg.

Honestly...keeping Sizemore would probably poll as a more popular move with what's left of the fanbase than hiring Phil Nevin.

So that’s all any scuttle about the Jerry selling is gonna be: Leverage. You’ll miss me when I’m gone (to NASHVILLE, snort). Sure, if a megabillionaire wants to fly into Chicago and offer Jerry 150% of what the team is worth, covering what his family loses selling vs. inheriting his White Sox, sure, yeah, he might sell. He’s old, and his team is years away from getting back to the top of the division. Don’t let your anger toward Reinsdorf cloud what is a playbook move — if there’s been a move at all (don’t forget this is all tweet wrapped inside of a feeling in hearsay reporting at this point). Jerry may truly believe that the one thing that will outlive him isn’t Championship Plaza outside of the current park but The 78, a presumed marvel of locale and fan experience. And if we get past his enormous and offensive ask of a billion dollars from a state that can’t and shouldn’t afford it and recognize it as another negotiation ploy, Reinsdorf is probably right. The 78 would long outlive him or memories of 2005 (well, it would live until a new park in The 79 is built in 2080). https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/other/so-jerry-reinsdorf-is-going-to-sell-the-white-sox-and-lose-millions-for-his-family-and-send-a-125-year-old-team-to-nashville-of-all-places-at-the-same-time-he-s-building-his-sandlot-field-in-the-78-got-it/ar-AA1svY3o

Could that area near Kauffman and Arrowhead that had like a Red Roof Inn and a Taco Bell once upon a time look like a destination zone? Not likely. One of the reasons the Kansas side wants to start all over from scratch.

I mean...are they dynamic or athletic players who can run and throw exceptionally and flash at least 3/4 out of the five traditional scouting tools??? Or have the potential to at the very least? Projections...? Solid to above average hitter still might be a major victory for the Sox.

My biggest problem with Thorpe is the Padres have had a TON of pitching prospects go in and out of that system and none of the starters traded have done a thing but Gore and Quantrill and Weathers to a lesser extent... Gore was pretty much the equivalent of a Giolito, already a well known quantity, traded for one of the biggest stars in the game. Now the Pads have given up a helluva former bullpen of studs. Just not many starters have made it. (Ofc you can argue Thorpe is more a Yankees' prospect if that makes one feel better.)
