That's not to say though that the rebuild hasn't stalled big time and Hahn should be ashamed with what has taken place. And the Sox aren't??? I have zero faith in the current Sox "braintrust"(LMFAO) to accomplish jack and shit. At least there is some form of accountability with other organizations. This one is so incredibly dysfunctional. They make GarPax look like super geniuses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GermanSoxFan Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 5 minutes ago, Jack Parkman said: Honestly, the Sox might be the furthest away from competing of all rebuilding teams in baseball. I can safely say they're as far away as the Orioles now. The Sox had a 2 year head start and 3 great assets to trade and they completely bungled the whole thing. The Tigers and Royals will have passed them by 7/31. That might be the hottest take I have ever seen. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 2 minutes ago, fathom said: Nothing has ever been more fitting though of Sox pitching getting shelled while Garland talks about how much Cooper helped him and the other pitchers back in the early 2000s. Man has the game passed him by. It's really amazing he's still here after stuff he did nearly 15 years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The results speak for themselves. Any other team would have fired a pitching coach that underachieved as much as his pitching has the last few years.

Well yeah, they've had a ton of games against the White Sox pitchers. I will say that Mondesi looks like a star and Dozier is hitting the crap out of the ball.

That’s an absolutely insane thing to say. The funny thing is that you would say the exact opposite if the Sox were leading this one fucking game by double digits.

Outside of Palka and Jimenez, it's been fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cordell? Alonso? Sanchez? Rondon? LMAO dude. None of them are any good and none of those guys are better than the other teams's scrubs. Sure, Moncada, Garcia, Anderson and Abreu have been good but the rest of the lineup is a joke. Edited May 5, 2019 by Jack Parkman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sad because I got a little emotionally attached to some of these guys success in the bigs and they probably aren't going to win anything here. If it does end up coming together, it will happen right before everyone is getting ready to walk in 2022, and that is if they play baseball at all that season.
