Rusty Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 (edited) 11 minutes ago, WestEddy said: I carry water for logic. Seriously, you wrote way too much about the White Sox not replacing a .550 OPS hitter with another .550 OPS hitter from AAA for 7 games. Did you know that The Taliban just outlawed the sound of women's voices in public in Afghanistan? There's something to get pissed about. Not flying another shitty infielder to Chicago to help carry the equipment back into the clubhouse after another loss? Not so much. “Replace”? Are you serious? One player was injured and didn’t play for SEVEN CONSECUTIVE GAMES. That isn’t “replace.” It’s filling a void. One would think in a multi-billion dollar professional sports franchise, each one of the 26 available active roster spots is a pretty damn valuable position. I’ve been to Afghanistan multiple times and literally spent years of my life there so you trying to bring that into an argument about the worst baseball team in history….go f*** yourself.

And you told us this team would have 45 wins by the end of July so we got to eliminate that carrying water for logic point real quick. I told you? LOL. The question at the time was to guess win totals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost five percent of a professional season for a billion dollar sports franchise so yeah…I’d say it’s a lot. Do you want the $40 bucket or is just one of the free ones from Home Depot the best? The $40 one has a locking lid so at least you wouldn’t spill any water. Edited September 5 by Rusty 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capn12 Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 Ramos is back in Chicago. That is great and all, but it'd be even cooler if he actually got to play over the likes of Nicky Lopez. But another night, another 'ride the bench' for him, in favor of Lopez as the leadoff hitter! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s been overshadowed by the trade returns and overall suck of the team, but Sheets and Lopez continuing to get at bats down the stretch is one of the larger things that makes me question what the actual f*** Getz is doing. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moncada whatever...but both Sheets and Lopez at this point? It's as if they hardly ever concerned themselves with the actual consequences of guys like Sheets Vaughn and Palka in the outfield. Or whether Pollock was still an everyday outfielder period, for instance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramos shouldn’t be sitting. He should be playing 3B . Vargas isn’t a 3B,, Let him DH, LF, and 1B. Gavin Sheets shouldnt be part of the future unless the goal is utter mediocrity, which, considering JRs other franchise, is not out of the question.Sit his ass. Sit Nicky’s ass. Or just tell them to go away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still not even sure what Lee is at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 https://www.mlb.com/gameday/white-sox-vs-red-sox/2024/09/06/746912/preview There's zero reason to even play the first five hitters tonight.
