Expand This is true to an extent, but if the Sox had a deeper fan base, the decreases in attendance would be smaller, and the team could take things better. But this team has never been interested in building a base, Instead, they would rather alienate their most loyal fans and then wonder why attendance is still a problem. 2024 was a disgrace. This rebuild is a disgrace. This FO has no credibility. This is little reason to go out to the ballpark when this team is doing next to nothing to make this team watchable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the meantime, they need every small win they can get, and they need to stop tripping over themselves by doing stupid stuff like this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Chappas Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 He is a major league arm. I would guess 90% of real fans couldn't care less. I had to look up who Slater was as I forgot all about him. The White Sox are so far in the rearview mirror I am not certain Bauer would negatively impact them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm here for the lol's. Expand lol…I love that you are pretending the only issue with Clevinger is the domestic violence accusations against his wife & child. How about when in the middle of a pandemic he lied to his teammates, went out partying with his buddy, and put his immuno-compromised manager at risk? Is that ok too since he wasn’t convicted of a crime in a court of law? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
