Back in the day, minor league affiliates would threaten to pull their player development agreements if the big league teams failed to provide competitive teams on a consistent basis.

What part of .500 baseball isn't competitive to you?

My patience with this team is wearing thin… finally. ?

But we aren't to the 54 game mark when you really have a solid idea of what kind of team you have.

"Mercifully for himself Keuchel is out of the game."  Red Sox broadcasters with a sense of humor at least.

Might have been Dallas Keuchel's last big league start.  Stuff just doesn't play in the bullpen.

All of our minor league affiliates have played .500 baseball for the last 2-3 seasons?

We were talking about torturing Charlotte fans by sending him there.

That won't happen. This will be his last appearance for the White Sox.

What do we have, like almost 65 million dollars tied up in Grandal, Keuchel, Harrison, Pollock and Kelly

The fine art of acquiring fading talent.

The whole point of a rebuild is to build a team strong enough to be able to come back from a lead like this early in the game.

Rebuild teams lose this game with little fight put up.

Championship teams fight back and either come back and win the game, or make it awfully close.

My bad...I was talking the big league club.  I see your point now.

Without Moncada Robert and Jimenez...not happening.  Pretty sure Grandal might now have the worst/lowest qualified OPS in baseball.

its all going according to plan!

Get lucky in the draft a couple times (Tim Anderson... and... I dunno who else?)

Sign some old veterans (the money will be spent!)

Throw the rest of the money at bullpen arms (it never fails!)

Call up some kids from the minors that are good (rebuild complete!)

Call it a competitive window (lose in the first round of the playoffs two years in a row)

Fans will keep coming to the games, buying merch and watching on tv/www.
