Why would WGN TV not want to broadcast baseball? Is it because they don't want to pay more money?

The trading deadline is coming up. I would like to think the White Sox will be active. I would think that Hahn will try to improve the team if he can. I would like to see the White Sox trade Moncada and Kopech back to Boston for Chris Sale. Does anybody think Boston would make the trade?

I think Hahns contract runs out at the end of the 2019 season. I would like to think if the team isn't improved next season he won't be renewed. At least I hope not.

I never said there was a $200 million dollar profit. But there is a huge profit. If you think the White Sox are losing money, you are misinformed. JR would run for his life from this team if it wasn't making money.

No the White Sox don't have the revenue of some of the other teams. Still Forbes magazine has said the White Sox gross $260 million dollars. The teams payroll this year is $60 million dollars. The team is 29th in MLB payroll. JR and his investors are laughing all the way to the bank. I expect the 2019 payroll will even be lower.

Always remember what Bill Veeck said, "The future is now. 5 year plans usually lead to new 5 year plans".

I've written letters to JR for years. He's even responded to some of my letters in the past. He didn't respond to my letter last year when I requested to be interviewed for the job of White Sox GM. I feel the time is right to write him another letter. Its obvious to everybody that this White Sox season of 2018 is a complete train wreck. I sure don't see any light at the end of the tunnel with this team. I can definitely see this team fighting for last place for years. The team is at the bottom in the standings, attendance and TV ratings. One of his players (Lopez) said yesterday that they're playing like clowns. I think its time for a very drastic change. I'm going to request that he put the team up for sale. I realize he's making nothing but money with this team. Still, at his age how much money does he need? The franchise is a disgrace. We need a new owner here. I know of at least 3 groups of people who want to buy the team. I'm curious to see if he responds to my letter. Better yet, hopefully he'll put the team up for sale.

I remember when the 2013 white Sox season collapsed Hahn traded for Avi Garcia which Hahn said was the start of a rebuild. The team has gone nowhere in the 6 years Hahn has been the GM. He should thank his lucky stars he still has his job. If he had been the GM in virtually every MLB city he would of been fired by now.

1) Older White Sox fans remember how Robin Ventura didn't do well his 1990 rookie season. Ventura turned it around his second season. Moncada is struggling this year. Hopefully he will start to do better the rest of the season. What troubles me about him is his bad defense. Hes making errors on ordinary ground balls. I can't help but wonder, if Moncada is this bad next year will the White Sox go in another direction at second base? 2) Bruce Levine said on the radio this morning he expects Jimenez to be brought up to the White Sox in another 3-4 weeks.If he's brought up I hope provides a spark to this team. This team is really hard to watch.

I had a interesting conversation with a Cubs fan this morning. He maintains that Theo Epstein wants to own a MLB team. I was thinking that if we had the good fortune of JR putting the White Sox up for sale, wouldn't it be something if Epstein bought the White Sox? Epstein has produced winning teams at every stop he has been. I would think that most White Sox fans would welcome him with open arms if he became the White Sox owner.

"The Commander", Bob Elson was the 3rd announcer inducted into the HOF. He was heartbroken when the White Sox didn't rehire him after the 1970 season.

How about Moncada and Kopech to the Red sox for Chris Sale?

I've sat through a few seminars with Hahn and he mentioned at those seminars he expected Fulmer and Giolito to be major parts of the rebuild.

I realize that this 2018 White Sox season is a rebuild/tanking/throwing up the white flag season. Still. to have Giolito continue in the White Sox rotation is a farce. Is Hahn too stubborn to face the fact that Giolito can't get anybody out. They sent Fulmer down to the minors earlier this season simply because he didn't get the job done. Its beginning to look like this so called rebuild is really going to take years before it becomes successful. Too many players counted on to turn this team around are not performing as well as expected. Giolito should join Fulmer in the minor leagues. Hopefully he can turn his career around down there.

Face reality we're stuck with Hahn and company as long as JR owns the team. Hahn has been the GM for 6 years and the team hasn't had one winning season. Most other MLB owners would have replaced him by now. That unfortunately is not going to happen here.

I hope he doesn't take a couple weeks off. SoxTalk is the best site for White Sox fans. Everybody gets to express their opinions without any censorship. Freedom of speech is a wonderful thing especially on SoxTalk.

It looks like Palka can hit in MLB. Stone said on todays telecast that Palka is working hard to become a good outfielder. I can't help but wonder. What happens to Palka when Avi Garcia and leury Garcia come back off of the disabled list? Does Palka alternate with Davidson as the DH? Or do the White Sox trade either Palka or Davidson or maybe even Avi Garcia?

I keep reading that Madrigal will be a shortstop when he plays in the minors. If that is true does that mean the White Sox will not bid on free agent Manny Machado this upcoming off season?

I remember when the White Sox had Carlos Lee. He was bad in the outfield. During one off season he worked like a mad man improving his defensive skills. I'm hoping Palka does the same thing this off season. He looks like he could have a good career hitting with the White Sox.

I don't think anybody thought Covey would be this good. It seems like he turned his career around. Hopefully Fulmer and Giolito can turn there careers around also.

Your post is one of the reasons why Soxtalk.com is the best site for White Sox fans. Your post is rather harsh but still you're expressing how you feel and its accepted by the people who run this site. If you posted this on some other White Sox site (WSI) you would be banned by now.

Because I'm The Worlds Biggest White Sox Fan (WBWSF). I go to 40 games a year, win or lose. I think its pathetic how bad this team is. I like to win.

Say what you want about Tyler Chatwood but who would you rather have on the White Sox, Chatwood, Fulmer or Giolito?

It certainly is a awful franchise. But the franchise is making nothing but money for this ownership. I read yesterday that the White Sox are 29th in team payroll. Oakland is the only team with a lower payroll. Forbes Magazine has said that the White Sox franchise has a gross income of $260 million dollars. With this low payroll JR and his investors are making some serious money here with this horrendous team.

There's a old saying in baseball. Good teams win games, bad teams have meetings.
