RT @JoshuaPotash: If you're seeing that Omicron is from South Africa, this might help.
It is November 27 and the lack of #WhiteSox moves has breathed new life into the “Yasmani Grandal is not a good catcher” movement. We have reached purgatory.
RT @soxmachine_josh: Grandal can catch. We need to move away from this whole narrative.
White Sox fans should know what bad catchers look like. Check the tape again when Grandal was on the IL. https://t.co/woNY7VUYuB
Grandal can’t catch (well at least). Vaughn and sheets can’t play right field at all. And if Moncada could carry his weight we wouldn’t be so dependent on a “lefty bat” and could’ve gotten marte.
I need someone to draw up the Venn Diagram of White Sox fans who believe Yasmani Grandal can't catch but believe that Andrew Vaughn and Gavin Sheets can play RF.
The wife is making us get family pictures tomorrow. I’ve known about it but it didn’t dawn on me to get a haircut til this morning. I’m cheating on my usual hair cut babe. I feel dirty.
It's a good plan, IMO.
For those worried about Grandal not being able to catch 120+ games, I get it. It's a legit concern.
But that's not a Grandal conversation. That's the "Why is the 2016 first-round pick still struggling" conversation.
@soxmachine_josh 100 games of top 10 ish catcher play seems good, I dunno. if a fully healthy Grandal can catch ~100 and 1B (which is yikes defensively) or DH for ~30 more, that’s good?

Michigan fans should storm the field if they win. Been a long time and life is too short not to celebrate
Just for you, John, the next Sox Machine Player Review is going to be Yasmani Grandal.
@soxmachine_josh Please disband your podcast, it’s got to be a complete waste of time and energy for anyone involved!!!! Grandal is horrendous and you can pretty much see it on display any game catches get it any game
RT @Mark_Bussey: @soxmachine_josh And if that doesn't reinforce the point enough, start looking at the tape of every White Sox catcher since Tyler Flowers left
Kind of hard to throw anyone out when the baserunner is halfway to second base by the time Grandal has the ball. White Sox pitchers did a poor job of holding runners last year.

@soxmachine_josh Can't hold on to anything thrown from the outfield or cut off men. Pitchers stay away from their sliders because he can't stop them from going to the back stop. Sure, he can frame. BTW, did I mention he can't throw anyone out?
That's a perfectly fine concern. I share it, too, but the FA backup catcher market is pretty thin. May need to trade for one.
@soxmachine_josh He's still only caught more than 120 games one time in his long career. My worry isn't that he's a bad catcher--he isn't. My worry is that the White Sox will have to find another catcher to catch about 60 games next year. Moreover he needs rest on his knees to be as productive.

It is my long held belief that you should ALWAYS go for 2 if you’re up by 7.

@soxmachine_josh If Grandal can’t catch, 2B and catcher become the two most gaping holes. Still need a SP pitcher as well. In this scenario, Vaughn/Sheets/Engel/Adolfo/Cespedes become your RF so you can spend budget to fill those holes.

RT @DoughBoiSvo: I can’t physically share this with all of you but I wanted to let you know that this was because of the good nature of all you’d guys! Wish you could have seen the look on the lady’s face when I told her about White Sox Twitter, I love you all even @buehrlecat https://t.co/gPPOHeSi6f
I'm expecting @MrDelicious13 to purchase the hoodie Reggie Bush is currently wearing.
Why on earth would they ever move away from those jerseys. They’d be so much more likable if they wore those all the time.
