  1. Most of the guys are playing themselves off the team, the only position guy that will be here next year is probably Benintendi because of his contract, maybe Lee but he has really regressed as the year progressed. Fletcher might be around as 4th outfielder. Robert will probably be traded as well as Vaughn, the rest are DFA candidates.
  2. Sheets didn’t help with a bad throw on a tailor made DP ball.
  3. The pathetic numbers are just plain mind boggling with this team.
  4. Andrew Vaughn is an idiot, all he had to do was tag the runner. I wish MLB could somehow fine JR for putting a MLB team this bad on the field, just an utter disgrace. I know it won’t happen but it should.
  5. Jerry Reinsdorf, a name that will live in infamy.
  6. This clown said the roster he put together at the beginning of the year was going to be competitive, competitive teams don’t lose 100+ games.
  7. Agree, I’m not sure if Schumacher is the guy, like you said, they need to conduct a thorough search and wind up with the best guy available, if Schumacher is the guy then go with him.
  8. Those are my thoughts also. Maybe they decide to keep Robert, they can then move him to RF, prolong his career by cutting down on all the running in CF.
  9. Damn I keep looking at the standings and say to myself how can an MLB team be this bad then I come to me senses, this is a minor league team put together by a idiot for a GM who was hired by the worst owner in Professional Sports.
  10. Me too, I think they gave up on him way too soon yet we give guys like Sosa forever to figure it out and they never do.
  11. They came up short of 3 million both years 2,934,154 in 1991 2,957,414 in 2006 White Sox, Royals, A’s, Rays, Reds, Nationals/Expos and Pirates are the only MLB franchises that have failed to draw 3 million fans for a season and yes the Marlins drew over 3 million their first year in 1993.
  12. Those low boxes were bad at Comiskey as the field was pitched, players in the dugout could only see the outfielders from their waist to the head. Wasn’t rectified until 1982.
  13. Walt, that’s the way I felt back in those days but I liked the Bears too, I never liked the Cubs but because we lived up by Loyola as a kid I went Wrigley quite often from 1957 to 1960 but always rooted for the visiting team, It wasn’t until 1960 that I went to Sox game without an adult.
  14. I made to one Cardinal game, their last year in Chicago was 1959 and they played in Soldier Field that year. My cousin and I went to a beautiful Suday afternoon game in October and they lost to Jimmy Brown and the Cleveland Browns like 34-7, pretty typical. I had a golf buddy here in Florida who died a few years ago, he was a few years older but lived near Midway and he and his buddies would go to Sunday Cardinal games at Comiskey, head downtown for something to eat and then head out to Chicago Stadium for Blackhawk games. I did that with buddies maybe twice with Bear and Blackhawk games. One other Cardinal tidbit, their last 2 or 3 years in Chicago they played 2 home games a year at Metropolitan Stadium up in the Twin Cities.
