Unfortunately I didn't get to see it, but at least it did remind me of this sweet strain of weed that we had back in the day that had the same name...

Can we please please please fire Pedro now? Who would’ve thought I would be longing for Terry Bevington!

I'm starting to get the feeling that this team isn't very good.

The team’s currently losing streak is incredibly their second run of 14 consecutive losses this season, tying their single-season record for longest skid.

According to Stathead, the White Sox are now the only team in American League history to have two 14-game losing streaks in the same season, and are only the second team in MLB history to achieve the feat, joining the 1935 Boston Braves.

They are on pace for just 41 wins, which would be an MLB record for fewest victories in a 162-game season.

Finally, in a bit of a punch to the gut, even if the White Sox tossed out their two 14-game losing streaks, they would still have a record of 27-53, which would still give them the worst winning percentage in Major League Baseball.

"It became clear to me that he [Getz] would be one of the major candidates, alongside these other candidates. And then when I started thinking about the speed I owe the fans, I realized that if you bring in somebody from the outside, it's gonna take him a year, he's gonna have to evaluate everybody in the organization. So you'll lose a year."

Imagine how long we'd have to wait to hit rock bottom with anyone else at the helm.

More Pedro that Getz although he whiffed the 3 way deal.

The draft rule changes are horrid - no higher than 10th??  It’s a crime and the rules need to be addressed

Btw - I almost lost this board address - it took me a long time to find it.

That's one of the funniest parts of all this - they can't even tank correctly.

It makes me wonder - how much fun would Jeter be having right now through all of this?
This team was made for him.

The Athletic spoke to nearly 40 current and former White Sox employees and MLB sources about issues plaguing the dysfunctional franchise.

Sky point Jheter.  He would have thoroughly enjoyed this complete Bucket of Suck and would have had some damn funny posts about it.  The level of Sox Suckiness is just so sad it's hilarious.

Ha!  Now Jerry is letting it leak that he's willing to sell the team.  Obvious leverage ploy? 

Pretty good read:

A report that Jerry Reinsdorf is open to selling the team shocked many in and around the White Sox. But the confluence of conditions that would make him consider it are in place

  Doubt the “leak” came from the White Sox as the report didn’t come from Bob Nightengale.

Next two weeks will tell us if this team is for real.  Phillies, Braves, Dodgers and the hated Yankees.  Gotta hope they at least go .500 through that stretch.

.500 is a good goal against those teams, i had not looked ahead other than Phillies.
