  1. He’s not the worst hitter in baseball when used properly as a utility player. If and when overexposed in a role he doesn’t belong in, yes, he can look bad. Most players cast in a role they don’t belong would as well. As for the snarky he’s not good at anything comment, he’s good at being a super sub who can give you good defense at SIX positions, while providing good speed offensively. He’s been here awhile. You should know that by now.
  2. He’s not below average as a utility player given the number of positions that he can play and play well adequately defensively, and he has speed offensively. He’s only overexposed when he’s forced to start as much as he has. Forget the injuries: he’s overexposed partly because this front office failed to solve the second base issue over the offseason, and now Leury starts far more than he should.
  3. Leury is a good utility player who is not allowed to be a good utility player because the goofy manager plays him as if he’s an Allstar, and the front office thought that Josh Harrison was the answer to second base over the offseason.
  4. Who thought this lineup would make Gausmann labor to the tune of 98 pitches through five innings!
  5. Why does it take them so long to cut from the centerfield camera to the camera behind the plate when a ball is put in play!
  6. As of today, his so-called Hall of Fame experience is book-ended by bouts of questionable results during his career with the White Sox.
  7. Unfortunately our Sox have looked terrible against both the Yankees and Red Sox at home this month. We wore the collar of looking bad against good teams last year prior to the postseason. We are looking even more futile in the early going this season.
  8. That is NOT happening under the current owner. It only happens if LaRussa walks away from this himself, which seems unlikely.
  9. In Year TWO he was supposed to use his so-called Hall of Fame experience to clean this up, and here we are.
  10. Steady him with a position and spot in the lineup and then let’s see what the young man can do. Let’s not lose sight of the fact what’s been asked of him at the MLB level with so little minor league experience.
  11. It’s going to be interesting to see who ends up making that decision: the current owner or the next owner.
  12. Weg (if I may be presumptuous enough to refer to you as such!), who would you replace DK with in the rotation? I root for Lopez, because I still believe in the ceiling with his stuff, but for this season, maybe VV is the way to go for now? What say ye!
  13. We probably wouldn’t have seen a start by Dallas Keuchel tonight.
  14. There have been way too many failed acquisitions over the years not to blame Hahn. But I don’t want to lose sight of the fact of what this owner, who has operated on a losing model long before Hahn came along, has inflicted on him to make his job harder than it should be.
  15. But if he’s pinched on budget by the owner, I don’t know, who’s to blame for acquiring the likes of Harrison this year, or Eaton last year, so on and so forth, when far better talent was available on the open market, but obviously more pricey.
  16. The largest contract ever handed out by Jerry Reinsdorf.
  17. They are trying to conflate his so-called ownership of the two franchises. Not one of those six Bulls championships has anything to do with the White Sox. In the 40 of 41 years of ownership in years not named 2005, his team has won a COMBINED “5” postseason games across those four decades, with ZERO playoff series wins. It is arguably one of the most ineffective ownerships of all time.
  18. “They got us right where we want them!”, a wise man once said!
