Yep, we don't need to do anything....but Wright is hurt, Pomeranz again struggling, we need to kick tires this off season. I'm all for picking up a top of rotation starter.
-
I knew it was a long night when Pomeranz refused to pitch to butterball with runner on 2nd base in the first inning. He's such a f***ing pussy. Note to the management. Pussies can't play in Boston. Give these f***ers a pussy test. Pomeranz is a f***ing pussy. Got it?
-
Why even play this f***ing game? Oritiz not playing. Sandy on the bench. It made more sense to play Sandy tonight and rest him after a night game, ie Saturday. Pomeranz is a big f***ing pussy but JF didn't give him a chance to win. JF needs to be canned. He's a horrible manager.
-
But we will be trading from strength....we don't really have to do anything. There's some chirping on White Sox end to rebuild. It's also better for them to make a trade with some team control years left on their aces. Otherwise, at some point, teams will wait out for free agency and White Sox get nothing.
-
Will Moncada, E Rod and Kopech entice White Sox for Sales?
-
I don't like to bring guys back that we parted with for whatever reason, thus my staunch opposition to signing Napoli. Trumbo is definitely an option we should pursue. We will need a power bat to replace Ortiz. AL East is made up of bangers. We can't completely ignore it. And if we do win the whole thing, Sox should pursue White Sox starting pitching. They will be rebuilding in my opinion.
-
Blue Jays lose. Every game matter until October 2nd. Get the damn Yankees.
-
I believe Papi is not playing. That puts Hanley as DH or maybe Young. Keep Beni in left field. Hill at 3B and Hanley 1B. Young DH. Or Young in LF. Hanley DH. Hill at 3B and Shaw at 1B.
-
Or his cavalier attitude about the 'new' strike zone. He was sticking to his principle, damn the team so what if I'm striking out looking. For that, he can stay in Cleveland forever where Tito is willing to kiss his ass every day. No f***ing thanks.
-
Any idea how soon in 2017 Smith will be ready?
-
DD if nothing else is programmatic. He's methodical when addressing needs. #1 off season issue = lining up the bullpen #2 off season issue = additional depth/upgrade at starting pitching #3 off season issue = dealing with not having Ortiz Koji, Ziegler and Tazawa are all free agents. I have a bad feeling JF is high on Tazawa. I will scream if he says Tazawa struggled because he was overworked. On paper, we look to be strong with our five, assuming Wright returns to norm. What to do with Clay....good grief, it's never easy with the guy. It maybe that we go next year with what we have, plug in Hanley and Young at DH, move around Shaw and Moncada. It should be a fun winter. White Sox may be ready to go young. What are we willing to give up?
-
Pass on Napoli.....why the love affair with the guy that was big part of Sox trending downward? Move on, quit romanticizing the past. Hell he's definitely past his prime. Spend the money more wisely. I don't want to see a 180 strike out guy in this dynamic lineup.
-
I get it that Beni is technically a rookie, but everyone else should be moved up one. He ain't coming back to the minors. I'm intrigued by power bats, Bobby Dalbec and Josh Ockimey. I think Dalbec will always strike out much like Orioles Davis but looks to have legit power. It will be interesting to see if the Sox will reshuffle the deck and trade for a top of the line SP. You've mentioned that White Sox maybe rebuilding. Obviously we'll have to give up some players. Will the Sox be willing to clean out the farm system? Price, Porcello, Sales, E Rod, Pomeranz, Wright looks formidable.
-
Very good point. Other teams have 2 less games to make up ground. We don't have to gain ground, although that would be helpful, but we just need not to lose ground.
-
i was trying to be funny
-
I wished we hadn't traded away Wade Miley......
-
Realistic View 2016...Clay still afraid to throw strikes....what the hell is Hambree doing in a meaningful game? Is everybody in the pen tired? What a bunch of f***ing pussies.
-
Get two outs and walks a guy on 0-21 streak on 4 straight pitches... Bunch of f***ing pussies.....get him the f*** out.....he's sucked. Put Koji in there....this was a winnable game and we're f***ing around like its a meaningless game...... Farrell can choke on it....
-
Big test for E Rod today. He seems to pitch well against the Orioles. Too lazy to look up what he's done againt the Blue Jays. I like what I've been seeing from him. With Wright being out indefinitely, Clay B appears to be coming back. I hate it that he does just enough to sucker us in again. But that's for this off season discussion. Having Koji back definitely helps. Next up, Benintendi. We're beginning to look like definite contenders.
-
Obviously Moncada at some point will be our 3B. But I'm not married to him at this point. This is all about winning the Division. I don't care if we do it with 9 midgets. Everyone has to do whatever it takes to win every game. That has to be the mind set. Pedey gets it. Everyone needs to shut up and play. Like it or not, John Farrell is commanding this team. Be smart, John.
-
He needs to keep his thoughts out of papers and get the job done. I'm sure he's a great guy but you have to earn your right to whine in the majors. He's got no street creditability.
-
Xander batted .219 in August....He's 3-15 in September......Kimmi may disagree but I wouldn't bat a guy hitting .219 in second hole.
-
Xander batted .219 in August....He's 3-15 in September. He's completely lost at the plate. I understand loyalty but you have to do what's best for the team. Holaday is 4-28......Hanigan at .173...some ugly numbers.....
-
We're not tough......Exhibit 1....Xander Bogaerts. People keep saying that he's out of slump but I don't see it. He needs to be moved down in the line up. He's become a rally killer. I haven't even checked the stats. It just feels like he's not hitting. I used the analogy of a SEC team running up the score on mid major team. That's us.
-
Yep....this Sox team runs up score and offensive stats on mediocre pitching......our offense is overrated because we play in AL East park. They can't hit good pitching.
