The Game Presents: White Sox General Manager

The Game · 11-23-2023, 01:43 AM

Trying to see how well of a White Sox GM I can be. Real White Sox players in the year that they debuted for the Sox. Sim only league. 27 man rosters. DH al only Extra inning rules in place. No draft. No extra players. I can only trade current Sox players for former Sox players.

My team:

The Game · 11-23-2023, 02:26 AM

Sox are predicted to be the AL's worst team. Not a good start.

We have the lowest payroll.

No good prospects.

The Game · 11-23-2023, 02:29 AM

This 1st year is to get rid of many of the Sox players that I hate so I don't have to bring them in later on. I do have some good players in Colon, Wells, Belle, Santo, Rollins, Kimbrel & Peavy.

The Game · 11-23-2023, 02:36 AM

We have a ton of $$ for extensions and I do plan on re-signing several players.

Doubtful that I will accomplish any of JR's goals.

A lot of FA to be. Many players will not return but some will.

The Game · 11-23-2023, 02:41 AM

MGR Terry Bevington and his staff. As time goes on I might bring in former Sox PC.

Guaranteed Rate Field

Our minor league ranks 28th.

Using ghost players at AAA.

OD roster.

The Game · 11-23-2023, 12:22 PM

Jake Peavy will miss 3 months. P Jerry Reuss was added to the 27 man roster.
Charlotte Mike Olt was named AAA POTW.
P Jerry Reuss will retire after the season.
DH Adam Dunn has a 3 HR game.

The Game · 11-23-2023, 12:26 PM

We have the worst record in ML:B in April.

The Game · 11-23-2023, 12:29 PM

6-23 .207 11½ GB AL Central

Nothing positive to say. I was expecting around .500.

The Game · 11-23-2023, 12:31 PM

Castillo, Blomberg & Belle are the only positives on D.

The Game · 11-23-2023, 12:35 PM

Rf Jon Jay will miss 3-4 weeks. Rf Daniel Palka has come up from AAA.
Re-signed Lf Albert Belle to a 7 yr extension with an opt out after year 2.
SS Jimmy Rollins will miss 4 weeks.

The Game · 11-23-2023, 12:57 PM

Added SS Sammy Esposito to the team.
SS Sammy Esposito will miss 3-4 weeks.
SS Chelsor Cuthbert will miss 3 weeks.
Charlotte 1b Andy Wilkins has a 6 Hit game.
SP Bartolo Colon is suspended for 6 games.

The Game · 11-23-2023, 12:57 PM

We still suck.

The Game · 11-23-2023, 01:02 PM

5-24 in May, 11-47 .189 25½ GB AL Central

Is it over yet? At least Belle is doing good. DFA'd 1b Adam LaRoche. He will be released if no one claims him. Because I added Esposito, I will not add anyone else to the roster but I will probably DFA 2 more players because I badly need middle IF.

The Game · 11-23-2023, 01:04 PM

Belle led the Offense in WAR in May.
Wells led the Pitching in WAR.

Castillo & Belle are the only good players on D.

The Game · 11-23-2023, 01:05 PM

Fan interest has increased, oddly.

The Game · 11-23-2023, 09:54 PM

SS Sammy Esposito was moved to the 60 day IL.
Added SS Jim Baumer to the team.
RP Ross Detwiler will miss 6 weeks.
Released 1b Adam LaRoche.
SS Jimmy Rollins is injured again, this time for 4 weeks.

The Game · 11-23-2023, 09:56 PM

Signed 1b Rom Blomberg to a 1 yr extension.
Signed 2b Cesar Hernandez to a 2 yr extension with yr 2 being a Team option.
JR is not happy.

The Game · 11-23-2023, 09:57 PM

Charlotte RP Johnny Nunez is named AAA POTM for June.

The Game · 11-23-2023, 09:58 PM

Still in last place.

The Game · 11-23-2023, 10:07 PM

7-19 in June, 18-66 .219 32½ GB AL Central

Slight improvement. i knew going into the season that Jimmy Rollins was my only SS on my roster so I figured I could add a few players at some point. Esposito & later Baumer. This will be the last time I add players. From now on players will have to play out of position.

Belle, Blomberg & Hernandez are all going good this season, so I am happy I have then for next season. I can build the future around those 3. Almost all of the rotation and pen will be replaced.
