Give me a team full of crybabies if they can perform like Sale and Eaton…..Sure Sale had his fit over the uniforms but he has always been a team first player..I have never known him to throw his teammates under the bus for playing poorly behind him, generally says team first things…..and besides how often does trading away a legitimate ace and one of the very best pitchers in all of baseball work out. How many examples are there of that happening?

It’s about holding Hahn to his stated goal of sustained success. Contending or even winning a division with this group and then going back to being bad isn’t going to cut it.

Like seriously, you complain about them rushing Sale? You think he wasn’t ready or something? You say you need 25 players, but you want to trade 7 good major leaguers for 10. Okay cool.

You contradict yourself all over the place even on your own terms. All I take away from this is that you’re very upset.

Come onnnnnn. Stop with this win now crap. Reinsdorf doesn’t spend enough to try and won now year after year, and the white sox don’t have the DEPTH while rushing almost every single legitimate prospect (Beckham, Sale, Rodon, Fulmer, Burdi, Collins) in the past 9 years. Turn 7 players into 22 players. Obviously not all are going to pan. But 10 will be major leaguers. Pair that with Anderson, Saladino, Rodon, Fulmer, Collins, Burdi, Ynoa, and whoever pans out of our current system and you’d have something. Sign fowler. And cespedes. And whoever else you thini will help. Not only do you lose draft picks which the sox desperate NEED to add to the infrastructure, you still don’t add the depth that’s desperately needed. You can’t win with 11 good players on a roster. You win with 25 players plus additional prospects beyond that to overcome inevitable injuries which happen to EVERY team. Why are you insisting the white sox continue to keep doing what they have failed to do? Why? Cause they have 4 very legitimate players? (Sale, Q, Eaton, Abreu). No Frazier isn’t legitimate either cause he hit 40 bombs. They guy hit around .200 with a trash on base. GO GET 10 TOP 100 GUYS WHILE THE MARKET IS ATROCIOUS. There will never be a better time to sell on Sale or Q or Nate Jones. The free agent market for starting pitching will be wayyyyyy better a year from now. And if you sell your pitching you damn well better move Abreu and Eaton and Frazier by the trade deadline in 2017 cause Abreu and Frazier are 30 or over, and Eaton’s value is sky high right now. Eaton will have no value once he loses his speed and D in his early 30s. Not to mention Eaton is an immature crybaby just like Sale. Don’t be dumb, do it right, add the depth and elite, cheap, young talent. No guarantees it works but damn, do something different after being awful for 10 straight years.
