Vaughn 1500 ABs - 0.9 WAR Burger 600 ABs - 2.5 WAR Vaughn is untouchable, Burger got traded for a broken AA prospect

Lifes short, might as well raise hell. Almost 20 years of straight futility while the owner kicks our dicks in. Baseball is important to me and cheering for a Sox brand I can be proud of is what I want. Cubs fans calling us trash and we roll with it like cuckolds. Years ago it we wouldnt. I want to be a proud sox fan again and I know there are many out there like me who are tired of this and just want their voices heard for one night. A's fans are more excited about it than Sox fans so far, the latter apathetic and barely engaged. Maybe the wrong franchise is getting moved.

See post in the whitesox subreddit:

I do remember them, and I would always remember a crowd of 30000 yelling SELL THE TEAM. It will be burned in my mind forever and it would be amazing. A banner held by 2 kids and a small billboard wouldnt compare.

Pedro is clearly not the man for the job, but this mess predates him. It starts at the top. Sox fans need to organize and do a Sell the Team night like in Oakland. Hell, we play the A's soon. It would be amazing to get a sellout playoff type atmosphere chanting SELL THE TEAM. This would embarass the FO more and also show some love to our A's brothers and sisters. Anyone know some big Sox personalities to get this rolling?

Im ready for a fresh restart. Core, FO, everything.

What i love about this post is that it was at 1:30 in the morning. Ive been there after a few drinks myself. Ive been there sober too. This is the darkest era of my White Sox fandom. I was born in the Chicago suburbs. My dad was a Yankees fan but I wanted to cheer for a team that was local. I watched both the Cubs and Sox growing up and loved both of them. I regret not ultimately picking the Cubs. I dont see us crawling out of this rut the FO and Jerry put us in. It will take YEARS for me to find my passion in cheering for baseball again. I will drink the best champagne when JR finally croaks.

I had dinner with a former Sox player a few years ago andthe topic of JR came up. I mentioned that as a fan that I couldn't get behind JR and that I didn't like him. You would think I just talked s%*# on this guys dad. This wasn't even a major player for us, but JR SET HIM UP for the future. He had him take economics courses, and got him to invest in real estate down in Houston. This player was in the league for only a few years and now owns about 15-20 rentals in Houston. He thanks Jerry for it. Its no wonder there are so many players who admire and stay loyal to him. If only he gave a s%*# about the fans.

lol Eloy grimacing after running down to first base, im so sick of him. Injury #40

A few more decent starts and Dunning will have more WAR than Lynn since the trade. Another big W for the Harvard wizard.

Of course the FO prioritizes sending off good vibe players like Burger instead of the cancers. Isnt this why KW employs Boston? For the clubhouse scoop?

Who knew that a high school pitching coach would see to all our pitching prospects decline

I have a feeling last year was a Cease fluke year, and not trading him at the deadline will haunt us

The cost of rushing him back for positive PR. Well done Sox!

Lynn has around 1 more WAR than Dunning since the trade. Dunning is signed thru 2027 ?

Funny how the Sox didnt even try and market like this, or care about the fan experience at all for that matter.

Dunning is going to throw up a 3-4 WAR season, I think Texas got exactly what they wanted here. Pretty good considering they have him thru 2027.

This is probably Bob being passive aggressive that Jerry didn't fill him in on the Burger trade.

Voted C, like the small trades, but doubling down on his failed acquisitions (Moncada, Eloy), not landing a haul for Cease, and being delusional by thinking they will be competitive next year is just terrible.

So happy he was able to get a job after getting canned by the athletic. I was so mad at them i cancelled my sub

Another brilliant pitching performance by the 4th year rookie bust

This. Shelf Grandal and go with Lee with Zavala as backup.

The Astros have a worse farm than we do, but i havent looked up anything on this guy

Is this true? HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?
