I'm worried that both Eloy and Abreu won't be on the team in 2023. The 2 best hitters on the team being gone would be terrible. I'm under the impression that Eloys days are numbered here. Just in the last week and a half he was benched 3 times. Eloy has been great since the All Star break and he has been benched recently for no good reason.

Is there anybody who really thinks JR cares about the fans? He is simply in the baseball business to make money, of which he has been very good at.
-
I heard on the radio yesterday that the Bad Guys on the Northside are going to have their convention in January. I'm assuming that there will be a Soxfest 2023 and it will be announced soon.
-
He did get a great stadium deal, Problem is he got it built in a unpopular location and the stadium has a miserable upper deck that nobody likes.
-
JR also went on all the TV and radio shows and bad mothed Himes relentlessly after he fired him. It was really a a low class thing to do.
-
I've always found it interesting that JR fired Larry Himes (one of his most successful GMs) but has kept Hahn all these years. This looks like Hahns 8th losing season in 10 years.
-
Good catchers are hard to find. There are rumors that Oakland might move catcher Sean Murphy.
-
I will renew. The White Sox are the only team in the only sport I care about. Also, I wish this season was over with. This has been a very troubling season. I'm already looking forward to the 2023 season.
-
If they put Burger at third base, so be it. I have no doubt that Burgers offensive numbers will be better than Moncadas. Lets hope that Burgers defense improves. But yeah, I would rather have Burger at third than Moncada. Moncada has had 3 bad years in a row offensively. Its time to move on from him.
-
The team released Keuchel this past season. I'm expecting them to do the same thing to Grandal. Hopefully Moncada will be moved to another team. I realize that the team will have to eat alot of Moncadas contract but I'm still hoping There's a change at third base.
-
I agree with you. 2023 should be a much better season. Hopefuly they're able to replace Moncada and Grandal.
-
JR doesn't respond to my letters anymore. Its really a shame because I've really had some good ideas for the franchise. He knows who I am. I've talked to him a few times at Soxfest. He simply won't respond to me anymore. Being a season ticket holder you would think I would get some type of respnse from him but thats not the case anymore.
-
Wonder what the reaction would be if TLR was brought back to manage the White Sox in 2023.
-
The wife Of George Lucas bought 30% of the White Sox last year. Maybe she will buy the rest of the team one of these days.

9/25 Tigers @ White Sox - The No Game Thread Yet? Gamethread
WBWSF replied to Middle Buffalo's topic in 2022 Season in Review
1) Is there any reason why Eloy wasn't in the lineup today? The Tigers had a lefty going and Eloy was on the bench. 2) The White Sox drew over 100,000 fans for these 3 games against the Tigers and seemed like they were just going thru the motions. -
9/24/22 Tigers @ White Sox 6:10 PM CDT
WBWSF replied to CaliSoxFanViaSWside's topic in 2022 Season in Review
Just curious. What makes you think Anderson won't be on the team next year? If they moved him, who would play shortstop? -
Dick Allen who was on the 1964 Phillies said years later that Mauch should have pitched there young pitcher Fergie Jenkins. Mauch hated Jenkins and didn't pitch him. When Jenkens was traded to the Cubs in 1965 Mauch called Jenkins a piece of garbage.

I've never admired Hahn as a GM. I thought he should have been replaced years ago. I don't envy him. He has to make some hard decisions this off season. Moncada and Grandal are making some serious money and both of them are useless. They have to be replaced before the 2023 season. Grandal has one more year on his contract and they might just release him and eat the money. Moncada is owed $48 million over the next 3 seasons. They are going to have a hard time moving him to another team. I would think the only way to move him would be to pickup most of the money owed him. Moncada hasn't hit since 2019 and his defense is starting to go bad. He looked awful defensively in last nights game. I think this off season is going to very interesting.

The upcoming homestand against Cleveland and Detroit will be very successful. The White Sox will be in first place by the end of the homestand. This should lead them into the 2022 Playoffs. There's an old saying, The White Sox are coming, Tra La, Tra La!!!!

9/12/1976 - And That's A White Sox Doubleheader Sweep!!
WBWSF replied to South Side Hit Men's topic in Pale Hose Talk
The 1976 season was just awful. Even White Sox manager Paul Richards dumped on that team at the end of the season. -
He's now become one of the most dangerous hitters in MLB.

That's a White Sox Come Back Series Winning Winner !

This was really a big win. The White Sox Are Coming, Tra La, Tra La!!!! -
9/2 GT: Sox v. Twinkies 710CT - A new leaf turned?
WBWSF replied to ChiSox59's topic in 2022 Season in Review
I'm trying to regain pennant/playoff fever but then I see Martin the starting pitcher Friday nights game. I would rather have Lambert starting. Does anybody know when Kopech will come back? -
The White Sox offered Giolito a long term contract a few years ago. He declined the offer. Looks to me like he made a serious mistake. If he has another bad year in 2023 he might be out of baseball.

Fox. Aparicio, Pierce and Wynn liked Veeck as a person. They thought Veecks trading of Mincher, Cash, Battey, Romano and Callison was wrong They knew that all of those players were talented. All of those traded players had All Star years. The media always liked Veeck. I never understood it. I thought he was a terrible owner.
