Mitchell with 2 perfect passes?!

Maybe Balta's view of Achilles injuries has been skewed by Jake "Double Cheese" Burger

Bulls = dogshit

The reigning and unanimous recipient of the worst poster of the year award strikes again!

I got clowned on for suggesting we don't sign Jose for over 1 year. Look who everybody agrees with now. Funny! Either give him the QO and hope he declines, or sign him for less than the QO on a 1 year deal. A 3 year deal would be a disaster.

DJ and Benetti

This is just hilarious.

Anybody else hesitant about going after Strasburg with the amount of innings he's pitched this year? His career high and MANY more than he has pitched in a while.

Stone was on 670 today. He still hasn't signed a contract with the team. It sounds like something will get done at some point. Reiterated that his contract with the Sox is very low on the totem pole in terms of upcoming signings.

The White Sox FO has made it clear that they have been cutting costs the past few years so they can spend big. They set the expectations.

How quickly people forget. Did you see how far that thing went? BOMB. CLUTCH BOMB at that.

I agree with the Avi talk. I'd rather sign Avi cheaply and use what you save on Ozuna on another piece.

They're going to pick up his option, no doubt.

Agreed about two quality players. However, when has a player like Moncada been traded? It's possible his value is too high for other teams to entertain. The trade would need to include 3 studs in it, plus at least one other quality prospect

I'm slowly being sold on the idea. Advocating is too strong of a word at this point. If Yoan brought back an unprecedented prospect return, I may be for it.

Those guys weren't actually part of THE rebuild. The White Sox tried to compete for years with them. That was a half assed, old school rebuild. Trading those guys signalled the beginning of the current rebuild.

This is what I'm referring to. The idea is intriguing. There's no denying that. This is a move that could pay bigtime dividends.

No, 2nd generation as in trading guys from the 1st generation of the rebuild for more prospects. I don't mean a generation as in 1 year. It's which rebuild they were part of.

The Marlins never did the 2nd generation rebuild correctly. Sox could do it now if they were committed.

Only 7 carries today in total by ours backs? Am I seeing that correctly?

The season didn't matter. I think they were aware that Palka was horrendous in RF lol... They aren't that clueless.

This thought has always crossed my mind, and I saw another poster talking about it recently. The White Sox are known to be a stingy organization. The idea of the rebuild was acquire cheap, young talent through draft picks and trades. That talent gets supplemented with established players who will cost more. In typical rebuilds, you trade your high end players for a bunch of high end prospects (Sale, Quitana, Eaton, etc.). As far as established veterans who have been traded, these guys had just about the best contracts out there. Cheap and under control for a while. Trading a player like Yoan would result in an unprecedented return. You could absolutely stack the system and once again have one of the best, WHILE being loaded with young talent in the majors. Now, I'm not advocating trading Yoan, but the 2nd generation rebuild might be the true way to develop a multiple championship dynasty. Interesting to think about.

The priority should be signing Rendon and moving Moncada to RF. The defense would be lethal.

Edinson Volquez consistently has poor stats, but always gets another shot. Looking at his WHIP is laughable.

I can't think of many worse ideas than a rap demolition night on the south side of Chicago
