I would love this...regardless I hope the staff is top notch, curious who will join it, but having a young, up and coming bench coach would make a ton of sense There's some good internal options like Zaleski for PC or Jirschele for BC, but there's also plenty outside like Espada from HOU I saw Willie Harris got an interview, he'd be interesting BC as well
-
Really wanted us to draft him in '12 and have always liked him, but at this point, I think he's highly overvalued
-
Interesting, however prefer managerial experience over all
-
How is Cohen a crook? I'm genuinely unaware
-
Not passionate about any specific individual, I'm confident CWS will get their man I bet Hinch is the guy, but I could see Cora as well Unpopular I'm sure, but I think I'd like Scioscia, even Ron Washington interests me, or even Joey Cora My dream of a staff with Ozzie, AJ, etc. is over La Russa seems like a smokescreen and Bochy doesn't seem legitimate Let it be known I wanted Francona after Ozzie, things could have been different here
-
Was there bad blood? I don't recall with Coop Cease and Dunning absolutely deserve a leash
-
No Ricky! Crotchet is fine! Madrigal fine! and Kopech back! Hallelujah
-
back in June of 2012 I wanted either Stroman or Giolito in the Draft...Be nice if we had both (although I think Stroman's best days are behind him)
-
Good attitude, hopefully he'll be fine

White Sox Post Very Strong Viewership Numbers in 2020

Blows away NBA ratings (if accurate) -
Yeah it was awful and a pathetic way to leave, but that 2011 team wasn't exactly going anywhere
-
I think Cooper's best days are behind him, but the hate he gets on here is a bit over the top...He's old school

Guess the pitcher we add in the offseason
ChiSoxJon replied to thxfrthmmrs's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I know he's a question mark, but I think Kopech helps a ton next year...Additionally, I think Cease and Dunning both further develop, they both were good in this messed up season, that's 5 starters right there, but if a vet is wanted I don't think a Bauer is necessary...Maybe a Hamels or Q or Paxton or Kluber I think for the sake of our pitching and lineup depth, McCann is a top priority to retain...What an advantage it is to have him and Grandal, I also think Vaughn will be up to DH and obviously that's major...maybe a platoon OF like Pederson is signed as well I'm a proponent of retaining Colome as well, but understand the skepticism of some relating to that In house signings are my priority, the young players will continue to develop and improve, which will be more beneficial than most FAs -
I'm sure Ricky is a great guy and the players love him Undisputedly, however, he is a pathetic strategic manager IBM Watson would be a better manager in terms of strategy

Looking at how good Detwiler was this past season and saw his previous stats... How was he still in the league? wild

Q seems obvious, but I'm gonna go with Hamels -

Such a shame his career path has been, so talented, so fragile and inconsistent...sucks I don't see either, but who knows...I don't think a TOR arm is our most pressing need That'd be interesting if fairly cheap -
RF Joc Pederson, LHP Cole Hamels...On top of McCann, Colome, Leury, and Marshall Flier on Kluber would be worth it to me as well if cheap Liam Hendricks would be an awesome, but better ways to spend $, what a talent
-
They absolutely should (probably last year), but they absolutely won't God I'd love Alomar, Ozzie, AJ...anyone
-
Joc Pederson seems like an obvious FA target, even f Castellanos opts out (which I doubt), don't think CWS can afford
-
Perhaps most important, how do we about shedding Mazara? non-tender? trade?
-
C; Grandal, McCann 1B: Abreu 2B: Madrigal, Mendick, Yolmer 3B: Moncada SS: Anderson OF: Robert, Jimenez, Adolfo/Rutherford/FA, Engel, Leury DH: Vaughn Rotation: Giolito, Kuechel, Cease, Dunning, Kopech Bullpen: Colome, Bummer, Marshall, Fry, Heuer, Cordero, Foster, Johnson, FA

McCann was my top priority, but my optimism on a return is fading Colome was next, nothing longer than a 3 year deal...Well deserved I know we want Bauer/Stroman, but I don't see SP as such a pressing need, another arm would be nice, but with Kopech back and Cease/Dunning progressing, I'm less eager to overpay for an arm in the offseason Not sure what to make of RF, who's out there? Adolfo and Rutherford are...possibly, internal options Really love a super bench w/ McCann, Mendick, Yolmer, Engel, Leury, but we'll see what happens, hope the roster stays at 28
