  1. Is this the obligatory nickname for every player that has a name starting in Yo’? Of course it is.
  2. Satisfied may not be the right word. But they are compromising, and have low standards for their dollar/approval.
  3. I hate the Cubs. Yet as long as the Cubs are ahead of us in the standings and overall development of the roster and organizational support systems, it’s difficult to take a lot of schadenfreudesque cuts at them.
  4. That being said, we should just make it clear up front that we aren’t keeping any superstars we might be lucky enough to bring up as our own prospects. Just tell us the truth, man.
  5. That POV and determination a loss for an organization and fanbase going in. That’s like saying we’re losers. We suck, but we’re trying to make the best of it. Gaaaaaaa!
  6. MLB ratings may be moving in the right direction, but more KPop is not traced among factors.
  7. WWE, Magic Mike, children and youth oriented cornball is not for everyone. Entertainment is in the eye of the beholder.
  8. Curious to know if most of the haters are indeed “old”. Myself being one of them could help indicate age. Choreographed Hot dogging in sports has always been cringe to a lot of people, and this is like the World Series of choreographed hot dogging. Enjoy.
  9. I don’t know what you do for a living, but it’s not real estate. Taking that perspective into a meeting with your client seller will get you fired.
  10. It’s not about recouping value in general, it’s about value relative to what you should and could be getting
  11. Look, the old Sox would have held onto dysfunctioning players until death do they part. If the Sox lose the deal, I wouldn’t hate the thinking. Players that aren’t producing, lets have higher standards and move on. Most of time it’s gonna be the right move
  12. I begrudge somebody. Just not sure who it is or who it should be.
  13. Ah. So basically, the light went on for maturity *reasons* which have less to do with special development work or repairs. I just don’t believe teams deserve as much credit or blame that they get. Teams that are good at signing talent get lauded for their developmental ability. But really they are just signing better ballplayers
  14. The good ones hit mistakes. But boy, that was a mistake.
  15. So he is so good that Carleson already being here makes no difference. Positional value and BPA still
  16. —-Rick Hahn listened to his staff and players. He refused to move Gonzalez and gave him a shot in the big leagues. But once Hahn was fired, GM Chris Getz did not have the same reverence for Gonzalez's intangibles and potential. The White Sox designated Romy Gonzalez for assignment on January 26, 2024. They have lived to regret that decision and the entire baseball world is now shaming them for letting Romy Gonzalez get away ENTIRE BASEBALL WORLD! https://southsideshowdown.com/white-sox-get-shamed-romy-gonzalez-underrated-mlb-star-news
  17. 50-60 home runs sort of speaks for itself. If there is a Sox tax on marketing exposure, that’s a shame. But some people just care about the baseball.
