Cons: Royals org Pro: His analytics stance, his non-Menechinan home run stance, Spanish-speaking, bringing an experienced manager as a bench coach, canning the non-Katz staff. I'm cool with it for now. Feeling a lot better than I was before, even if it is just snippets people are dumping in here to hype him up.

The other possible take is the Royals wanted him, but hired Quatraro after Grifol told them he'd go to the Sox.

When it was good from 2004-2006, but then Ozzie started buying into his own mythos and put us through the nightmare that was the Mark Kotsay/Andruw Jones rotating DH nightmare instead of bringing back Thome, who hit that fucking monster shot off of Thornton. In case anyone needs me to drop a source

The fact that we learned Willie interviewed after the fact was all we needed to know about it.

"Dear Blue Jays outfielder Kenny Williams, The White Sox should call up Frank Thomas."

Woah there Chris Sale, them's fightin' words.

That's just gonna be the going rate at this point. Which we all know is why the team should have shelled out for 26-year-old Harper, but Jerry had to Jerry.

Left handed centerfielder with a career .269/.385/.827 slashline isn't a good skillset? And if you're counting 2016 (limited at-bats), he has 4 healthy seasons, because 2020 was 55/60 games.

I still have no idea why people keep bringing Wheeler up as a failure. The Sox didn't land him because Wheeler's wife is from New Jersey.

Of all the things for someone to get upset about, Frank Thomas hitting third in a lineup is not one I'd expect.

You are now the White Sox manager.

Either this is phenomenal parody, you've lost your sanity following this team, or you forgot to login to an alternate account.

If Willie didn't score the most iconic run in franchise history, no one would look at him as a possible nepotism hire.

Nah man, this is a high speed train wreck.

But why the quote marks?

This needs three options: As a kid. As an adult without kids. As an adult with kids. Cause adult Halloween parties >>>>>>>>>>>>> trick or treating, because they're one of the few times it seems everyone is just goofing around (if you have the right group of friends).

Kirk Hinrich!

I've mentioned this a couple times (for reasons that will be obvious in a moment), but in my 2010 Road to the Show I got drafted by the Cardinals. My guy was hitting .375 with 30 homers or something stupid, but because I didn't walk, Virtual Tony LaRussa benched me. So...yeah.

Inexplicably, it works, leading to 29 other teams firing their managers to save cash. Jerry smiles.

I think he can still get the benefit of the doubt until 1) The Sox hire someone else 2) Espada is hired somewhere else Until then, you're asking him to explain himself because other people with sources are saying his source is wrong. Wouldn't they then need to explain themselves if they're wrong?

1) f*** the Astros 2) Validates spending big on a superstar free agent Yeah, go Phillies.

Lol Zach liked this.

What's Bryce Harper worth compared to Gavin Sheets?
