  1. On one hand, TLR shooting down the speculation that Jerry is interested in selling to a Stewart led group with ties to Nashville is a positive. One the other, it means Jerry isn't selling in the near future, and will continue to destroy his own franchise from within. So, yeah.
  2. Required Qualifications: A): Will work for Jerry at below market rates. B): See A.
  3. He'd be better off staying with the Guards. Both of these teams are dumpster fires, and the Sox job is a career killer.
  4. Phil Nevin, come on down...
  5. A .250ish(?) hitter with a little pop at 1B is not a good player. He's no gold glover either. Non-tender him and move on.
  6. " It’s worth mentioning that McCullough is also thought to be a contender for the White Sox’s current managerial opening. Bruce Levine of 670 The Score called him “a leading candidate” for the role in September, although his name was noticeably absent from Heyman’s list of “leading candidates” published earlier this week."
  7. Showalter must be absolutely desperate to want to come here. But is he enough of a yes-man? I can't see Jerry signing off on someone they can't control absolutely, which, if memory serves, isn't Showalter. I still expect them to announce Nevin or some first timer.
  8. Why hasn't anyone thought up outfield swimming pools? *That's* what GRF is missing!
  9. Someone also hasn't been to Bridgeport in a while. Silly/offensive I tells ya.
  10. How many years did they refuse to pay the luxury tax while leading the league in attendance? Jerry has cared more about getting his revenue sharing free money than fielding winning teams for two decades. Different orgs, same JR.
  11. So they are calling themselves 'research & development' so they can hide from JR & TLR, right? No use of data under the new watch, boss, strictly old fashioned "scouting" and TWTW...
  12. There is just something really sad about rebranding your analytics department. Or needing to rebrand your analytics department.
  13. Ah, I pay so little attention to sports radio that I assumed Parkins was still with the Score.
  14. Manfred is completely two faced, so I wouldn't take him at his word, especially on a local Chicago show. If there is a way to line his and Jerry's pockets by moving, he'll be all over it. Oakland is the perfect example.
  15. I too hope these things hold true, but you have far more confidence in Getz than I do.
  16. I watched him play, and I still don't believe he's a real person.
  17. Look at all of that delicious parking right across the river that could easily be contracted for games.
  18. On any given weekend Cubs game, there are busses lined up on Irving Park road waiting to take fans back to the suburbs. If suburban Cubs fans can handle taking their kids on a bus full of other fans to Wrigley and walking a few blocks, there is no reason Sox fans can't do the same.
  19. Armour Square park. Armour with a u. But a Martha's Vineyard resident wouldn't necessarily know that.
  20. Psst, Jerry is a greedy real estate person...
  21. Look at the roster Getz assembled in 2024. Even if Getz lucks into a great on-paper hire, it's not going to make a bit of different with the "talent" on the roster.
