Sorry Robin but..... Lots of Kenny Williams leaving rumors out there

Nice of Bob in his latest article update to put White Sox fans on blast for not accepting poor results.

Hey...I know...we can hire Tom Thibodeau...he can coach the Timberwolves and the White Sox right?

Yeah the Jaguars have the same problem...they have Gus Bradley. He's the 2nd worst coach since WW2 I believe record wise. Hey maybe we can get Robin to break some records.

Just wait...they'll sign him and then wont add any players. It would be the ultimate f*** you to the fanbase.

Here we go with again with Dick Allen bringing the bulls*** train home. This news makes me sick...sick to my stomach. This makes it obvious that they want to go for it again.

As much as I hate Foreman and Paxson what they did this offseason actually made sense. I mean the best thing to do was a rebuild if you could. But Boston tried to win the trade in which they would get Butler and probably would send back not nearly enough.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 16, 2016 -> 01:59 PM) I'll believe it when I see it. If RH has been JR and KW's pool boy since he got the job, I think you can blame him for sticking around this long. There is no way you can single one of the 3 out and say none of the problems are any of his fault. Yeah that's stupid too. He sounds completely oblivious if this was the case.

Kenny should just put Rick Hahn out of his misery and take control then.

I'm not holding my breath...sounds too good to be true. Although I would like Cuban as an owner(not going to happen). Now there's someone who hates failing just as much as we do....well most of us.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 8, 2016 -> 03:13 PM) Didn't their minor league system get a real high ranking from many of the "experts"? For a while yeah. But you cant only have that and fail everywhere else. Once they are ready you have to supplement their arrival with signings.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 8, 2016 -> 03:07 PM) Another good place to look is in our own division at the Twins. They went into rebuilding mode, and are now seemingly starting over again. That's what happens when you have an incompetent GM

QUOTE (miracleon35th @ Aug 6, 2016 -> 01:22 PM) Agree. That should be obvious to others as well, which makes it rather curious that some pine for that. Who's actually pining for it? And no Jimmy I would not take that offer. Allen it doesnt matter if they could afford him money wise. They still have to trade prospects and there's only a handful of teams with a farm system that can do that. I guarantee you they rather not have him and keep their prospects while settling for a lower player/ paying him. That's the universal rule in all sports. Young assets/draft picks > paying players over market value. If they dont change their price they are both going to be on the roster next year and pretty much forced to go for it again. That's just reality. They better make up their minds soon. Sale's value is probably going to drop off after next year.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Aug 6, 2016 -> 12:21 PM) It was also stated that Moncada is off limits. They can f*** right off then. People in the media and even Sox fans on this site act like it's not the Sox that have the leverage. Sale and Quintana are the assets. It's not the other way around. I don't understand this thinking that they purposely asked for too much. Any of the packages that were traded at the deadline aren't even close to enough for Sale or Quintana. It's absurd. Sale is owed $39 million over next 3 years. Quintana is owed $40 million over the next 4 and yet there are some on this site (Yes, Baron I'm referring to you) that want to trade for $0.75 on the $1.00 just because they want change. It's a really incredibly stupid thought process. Ever think that maybe their price is ridiculous and they might never get traded? Or do you just automatically assume that whatever price they are asking for must be correct? There's a reason they will probably both be on the roster during Spring Training. The price is silly and no one wants to pay it. I think Rick Hahn fully understands that and he doesnt actually want to sell them. Plus let's shoot down this whole notion that because more teams are involved that definitely means they'll be traded. There's something called free agency. Now whether you think that talent is scarce in free agency doesnt matter. Free agents only cost money. Chris Sale costs prospects. That's going to hold up the whole process for months. Teams will wait for Hahn to lower his price if he even wants to trade him which I really doubt.

Rick Hahn may think there are going to be more suitors. But that doesnt mean the price will be met. Heyman in his last article posted pretty much the same thing from another front office executive. Just because there is more people doesnt make your price any less ridiculous. Does anyone honestly think their price is going to be met? Or that they actually want someone to meet that price? I actually think they dont want their price to be met so they can keep on going in their dream world where they can just add a few veterans and compete.

Well JB s*** is coming back to the team

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 2, 2016 -> 07:52 PM) Avi has 9 lives Well his father Rick Hahn is still running the operations part

That looks like a hammy explosion

QUOTE (GreatScott82 @ Aug 1, 2016 -> 05:26 PM) I know this is too good to be true. But is there any chance JR told KW and Hahn to stand pat because he plans on finally firing Hahn and KW at seasons end? Perhaps he wants his next GM to be in charge of the rebuild? That's way too optimistic. That would be the correct thing to do.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 1, 2016 -> 04:14 PM) Like that will be any better I dont know if they make the playoffs. But they have a very good foundation to be in that mix for many years.

Football right around the corner guys.

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Aug 1, 2016 -> 03:55 PM) What speech? I just made up what he was going to say after we stood pat. It was pretty much exactly what he said today.
