What Jeff Torborg did with that 1990 team was simply amazing!!! The greatest job of managing a pitching staff Ive ever seen. Of course THE JERRY fired him because he stood up to Him & Kenny.
RIP Jeff Torborg. I was on vacation in Montréal when Torborg replaced Felipe Alou. Neither I nor the Montréal press and fans were happy about that. I found out at the game (I think it was the Phillies at Olympic Stadium) from another visiting fan.
I just have a gut feeling ( been there, seen that ) that even should guys like Thorpe, Cannon, Schultz all become stars, they’ll just trade them for prospects

Are you a Washington Nationals fan now?
@bigb8115 No, just couldn't. I left baseball entirely for 15 years after the 2004 relocation. I follow the Marlins now.

Sox only have control of players for 6 years. This is why the rush-em-up strategy of so many commentators is insane.
Barring an extension.
EDIT = White Sox winning World Series by 2133
