GreenSox Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Very amateurish 3rd inning. AKA clownshow. But the clubhouse is happy and that's what's important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Jul 2, 2016 -> 04:18 PM) Do you really want to see this front office attempt a rebuild? Let JR sell the team first. I would rather see them try to build it from the ground up than what they are doing now. We know what they're doing now doesn't work. If they want to prove they suck running the organization both ways, well at least they tried something new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 QUOTE (soxfan85 @ Jul 2, 2016 -> 10:20 PM) GREAT point on that. That is the problem..this front office is so incompetent, it is very hard to trust them with any type of rebuild. Hell no should Hahn be allowed to lead a rebuild. He's failed enough at too many transactions to be allowed to make major ones going forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Side Fireworks Man Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 2, 2016 -> 03:20 PM) Well how long will that be? 5 years? 10? Then we'll have wasted the years of our core and not get anything back. That's why our only slim hope is "catching lightning in a bottle" and we see how that's working out.

southsideirish71 Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 2, 2016 -> 04:19 PM) They'll let Robin ride it out and only reason he'll be gone is his contract expires. To be replaced by some other legacy who played for the organization at some point. Hoping that those who used to have their posters in their room will overlook their lack of experience. This organizations plan is to try and catch lightning in a bottle and hope for regression by the rest of the division. They will never risk a full rebuild because of "these kids can play".

Problem with blowing it up with current regime is they can't develop hitters. Good luck with a full rebuild if you can't develop one side of the ball.

Bigsoxhurt35 Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Sale and Quintana alone would revamp the system. Then you add in others like Abreu, Frazier, Melky, Jones and Robertson. Maybe Lawrie since he's playing well sell high on him if there's a good deal to be had. I would keep Eaton, Rodon and Anderson. Build from there. This isn't working now.
