Is it worth giving up anything for JP if we don't sign Harper or Machado? Next year we'll be either bad or just so-so with out them. Adding JP probably wouldn't change that. When 2020 roles around the outfield might start to get crowded as well.

LA is a tough place to hit. Pollack should have signed with the Rockies.

Sinclair deal falls thru. Cubs on espn 8 {the ocho} next season.

The 1 thing that will make the Sox good in 2020 is bringing up 7-8 talented relievers in 2019 and let them take their lumps. We probably have more quality relief prospects than any team in baseball. With Dunning, Kopech, Cease and others joining the rotation in 2020, pitching could soon be a strength.

I hope #5 was in jest.

dick allen,wilbur wood,oscar gamble,richie zisk and mark buerhle. in some ways wilbur wood was more than a baseball favorite. the knuckle ball almost seemed to make life more fair for guys who weren't born with much athleticism.

Compare these 2 players since turning pro. I hope I am missing something with Walker, because Alex Call dominated Kannapolis at the same age that Walker couldn't hit .190 there. Call is considered to be better in the field than Walker is as well. Call has shown that he belongs in AA, and going forward he has a real chance to reach the majors. I don't know Calls best outcome, but his floor appears to be a productive 4th outfielder. I'll admit I don't know much about Walker. Was he fighting a minor injury after playing all year in college? Is that the reason for his unimpressive debut? If anyone has info for Walker please let me know. All I've seen is his top 30 page on white sox.com . Going by this limited info I would have kept Call and traded Walker to the Indians.

Yuck, YA at 32 will probably be terrible. I know we had guys ahead of AC but he does have a chance to be a really good 4th outfielder. Dick Allen is right about Machado angle.

If he is that cheap, he brings what Sale brought. The difference being Cleveland has better judges of talent.

Harry, you're hands are freezing.

6 years of this crap is almost more than I can handle. Next year looks terrible and 2020 who really knows. I've been watching for 50 years and the thought of 2 more seasons like this feels like a death sentence. I wonder what i'll feel like when my seasonal affective disorder kicks in.

Would someone post some good news please? I wouldn't even care if it was made up.

Fire everyone, including the janitor. We need new eyes in this organization.

Fulmer does blow, but lots of teams would be happy to have Kevan Smith.

Well, at least one guy on our team this year did some thing to make me happy.

does this guy have extra strong wrists? The real Dick Allen had tremendous power because of strength in hands and wrists, not size 5' 11" 175.

don't sugar coat it. renteria is a stiff. fire him monday morning. i'm not as down on hostetler. coaches should be axed including cooper. start over and tell hahn he's 81-81 next season or sayonara.

I'd gladly pick sixth if we could knock the Cubs into second place this week end.

I don't think he is as flawed as you think. In his minor league career he has always walked a lot and hit for a higher average. It wouldn't surprise me to see his OBP go up quite a bit next year. That being said, his home runs might turn back into doubles as well. Either way he's still a good offensive player. I totally agree about his flawed defense though. Maybe he should go play 1st base in the winter league.

Why not center field?

pull the plug.

I honestly couldn't care less.

Good luck, we hope to see you back sooner than later. Some times investing emotionally in a team can be really tough.
