  1. Ouch. I hope he gets exposed to some of the newer treatment modalities.
  2. Hopefully Rubenstine will soon be doing his advocating from a jail cell.
  3. I don’t think anything can beat our great triumph from last season.
  4. Even horseshit terrible white flops baseball!
  5. Why again would he sign here? I suppose we have the pitching guru and there’s the certainty of basically guaranteeing himself a playoff spot via trade deadline season.
  6. Wow - really amazing the amount of talent that has opened up from Japan. He’ll be on the Dodgers too… they did an amazing job capturing the Japanese market. With honor and virtue being held so high culturally in Japan, you have to give it to LA for creating an alliance with their country and their stable of top talent.
  7. In the past we’ve seen player driven rebuilds… which is what you’re describing here. What we are experiencing now is an organization driven rebuild… which will take longer and will require more “wins” outside of free agent signings and trades. Placing a rookie in the seat of that car while claiming we’d get to our destination sooner because of it… boy, that one’s rich Jerry. The state of White Sox affairs have unfortunately been moves that don’t fracture a fanbase — they have been moves which totally derail it… Until it works.
  8. The Hall of Fame List, for the win… yet again.
  9. At least we’re only 5 weeks from baseball games. Can’t come soon enough.
  10. Can I have a contract too? Pretty please? 🍒
  11. Bad FIP… high walks… low Ks… ERA+ in rookie year was good back a couple years… Seems like a project.
  12. Yea man - I remember the Advanced Media sale to Disney. Insane how much money is in baseball now compared to when we were growing up… You even more so… you likely have distant memories of when this country actually promised hope.
  13. Ah good to be corrected, I thought we were not a revenue sharing team and that is why we’re not eligible for competitive balance picks.
  14. For shits and giggles I evaluated the biggest trades from 2014 to 2020 using WAR as a comparison between established player value and eventual prospect player value. The team trading for the established player got more value 6 times. The team trading for prospects got more value 5 times.
  15. The fact that we’re not listed as a revenue sharing team should speak volumes.
