White Sox historian Richard Lindberg once wrote that building the upper decks in 1927 changed the character of the park and should have never been built.

I like your positive opinions.

2/27 GT Mariners vs White Sox, 2:05PM CT, NBCSC, ESPN1000
WBWSF replied to Tnetennba's topic in 2023 Season in Review
Burger can hit but can't field. Moncada can field and can't hit anymore BUT makes millions of guaranteed dollars. Something has to give here. The only way out of this is trading Burger. I can't imagine anybody trading for Moncada or him being released. -
The Sox Will Win the AL Central in 2023
WBWSF replied to Chicago White Sox's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I like you optimism!!! I agree with you. Its going to be a great year and the team is playoff bound. -
I can't help but wonder how Cohen reacts if the 2023 Mets have a bad year.

Andrus to the Sox, expected to play 2B, 1 yr, $3 mil
WBWSF replied to Heads22's topic in Pale Hose Talk
A good move. He'll help the team get into the 2023 Playoffs. -
Its going to be a playoff year for the White Sox. White Sox fans will be dancing in the streets this October.

Mike Clevinger under investigation for domestic violence
WBWSF replied to RibbieRubarb's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Its going to be a great season. The White Sox will be going to the playoffs in 2023. -
I read on the CWS site that they think Montgomery could be switched to third base. Both Andersons and Moncadas contracts have 2 years to go. Maybe they might sign Anderson and put Montgomery at third base in 2025.

If the White Sox had moved to Florida they would have played in a Minor League stadium in Tampa during the 1989 season. (Al Lange Field) They would have moved into the Suncoast Dome in 1990. It would have been the biggest mistake of JRs life had he moved the team to Florida. He has said in the past that he would have sold the Bulls if he had moved the White Sox to Florida. So instead of being part owner of the Chicago White Sox, Part owner of the Bulls, Part owner of the United Center and part owner of the Chicago Tv station his teams are on, he would have been part owner of the Florida/Tampa Bay White Sox. The Tampa Bay Rays have been thru 4 ownerships already. If they don't get another stadium when the present lease runs out that team will move somewhere else. Another positive thing happened after the White Sox remained in Chicago. Eddie Einhorn left the scene. He was the one person who really wanted to move the team. When that didn't happen he sold most of his White Sox shares to JR and left Chicago.
-
I've given up on being the GM. JR doesn't respond to any of my letters anymore. Its really a shame because I've told him some of my ideas for the team/franchise and he doesn't respond to me. Oh well.

When I use to work for a living it was hard going to the White Sox games. Now that I'm retired I'm glad to be a season ticket holder. I'm in a 20 game package and I usually go to at least 30 games a year. I'm thankful to be able to do this. I love the team win or lose. Its the only team and only sport I care about and I'm glad to renew every year.

The White Sox over/under for 2023 wins is 83.5

My feelings exactly!!!! -
The White Sox over/under for 2023 wins is 83.5
WBWSF replied to Chick Mercedes's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Over 90 wins. -
The White Sox over/under for 2023 wins is 83.5
WBWSF replied to Chick Mercedes's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Easily over 83. More like over 90. -
I always found it odd that Einhorn was one of the owners here. He was never happy about anything. He was the one who wanted to move the White Sox to Florida and when that didn't happen he sold most of his shares of the team to JR and he then disappeared from the scene.

White Sox Interested in Naperville Legend Nicky Lopez
WBWSF replied to Sleepy Harold's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I can't imagine that Burger is going to be on the White Sox opening day roster. That being the case I would imagine that Burger won't be too thrilled being sent down to the minors again. If you can get Lopez for him in a trade, why not do it? -
Other than the fact that the Cleveland stadium is in downtown Cleveland, ( The White Sox stadium should have been built in the South Loop) I think the White Sox stadium is better than the Cleveland stadium.
-
Cleveland extended their stadium lease last year. They are staying at their present location for another 20 years. The White Sox lease expires in another 5 years. They're not going to do anything major to the present stadium unless they renew the lease.

White Sox Interested in Naperville Legend Nicky Lopez
WBWSF replied to Sleepy Harold's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Jake Burger for Nicky Lopez? Why not? Burger isn't going to play for the White Sox. He's blocked at 3rd base by Moncada and blocked at DH by Eloy. -
The White Sox are going to the 2023 Playoffs.
-
Jason Benetti & Steve Stone back - options picked up
WBWSF replied to South Side Hit Men's topic in Pale Hose Talk
If both Stone and Benetti don't come back I can't help but wonder who would replace them. Would Kasper then do the TV? -
Its going to be a Playoff year for the White Sox in 2023 IF the team stays healthy.

What happened to the White Sox signing Sanchez?
