Getz not selling short like this actually gives me a little bit more faith in him as a GM.

They all make over 6 figures, speaking of the actual fulltime hosts. It's still lucrative enough that the Newspaper guys like Mully and Haugh left their jobs for this. But the days of Mike North making $1.5 million a year are long gone. Also, I appreciated what Speigs told the the two Civic Clowns. when he mentioned he's rooting for two healthy baseball teams for this city. He gets it, without healthy sports their jobs are donzo.

Bernstein and Holmes worried about "the best interest of the city" and "tax money spent properly." LOL, these guys are lucky to still be drawing hefty paychecks in a dying media all due to sports. But man, they really love latching on to politics all to show everyone "look at me on my high horse." It's like I told my group of friends, seeing how government just pisses our money in the wind on bullshit, I don't care if taxpayer money helps finance yet another White Sox stadium. And same for the Bears.

And how are the Padres short on liquidity to make payroll?

If only the fans would one day wake up and realize this is a business first, and then a sport.

Disagree. A floor would come with a cap. Each player you listed would know exactly what each team would be able to max out at to get them and not be sitting there being delusional like Snell is for some $270 million miracle that no team has the requirement or will to offer him.

If players union would only agree to a floor w/ a cap, a lot of these veterans would be getting paid what they are worth.

Reinsdorf has owned this team for almost 45 years. He'd be building a new stadium for 40 of those 45 years if it meant distracting us from a bad product on the field.

They wouldn't be discussing this site if that's the case.

How is Rodon a question mark? Sox nation was calling for the end of days when Jerry allowed him to walk away.

And to not see Carolina anywhere in that top 10 with having the worst record is very scary for their future.

This move so late after Sunday tells me they indeed had serious consideration on moving on from Eberflus. It makes no sense to not have dumped Getsy immediately after Sunday if this was the lone move to be made.

I disagree. The Sox have sunk to Oakland A's rock bottom. Nothing they do to make things worse should be a surprise at this point.

Sometimes "statistical data" does not end in positive results between the lines. Which is the case for Bummer. And it's been a few seasons of "bad luck" results. He is what he is, great stuff but bad baseball results.

No kidding. They had a chance to get Cease when they were the leading horse and the Yankees and Red Sox were asleep. Not holding my breathe they will go all in for Cease this time around. The missed their chance.

This guy stinks to be getting $14 million. MLB sucks right now ?

I think Bruce is the last man in America still using 56k modem.

This like Farrah Fawcett deciding to die the same exact day as Michael Jackson.

If only the Dodgers could trade for a TOR SP who has a manageable 2 yrs arbitration $ to fit in. Are there any out there?

Dodgers are the new Evil Empire.

White Hector

MLB contracts starting to feel like NBA contracts, "he got paid what?"

If anyone, the Royals got fucked Royally here .

That's nothing, I go all the way back to a guy looking like this being the OD starter for the Sox.

I saw photos floating around of Reinsdorf attending the GM meetings. I asked myself "for what?" That man went down there to make sure that Erik Fedde deal was not going to get fumbled. What dedication by our owner.
