Y'all remember when we could have hire Bochy?

In the AFL, unstoppable force >>> immovable object

Coffey got decaffeinated

Well, their first baseman will likely have his number retired in Chicago. And Correa and Keuchel are on the Twins. Keuchel may not have been a hitter for the Trashtros, but he was an All-Star that season with a 9-0 record in the first half - and he pitched way better when he had more run support that season. He benefited all the same. So yeah, Altuve and Bregman suck. But unless I'm misreading Baseball-Reference, each team has two members from that team and one has a former White Sox MVP. f*** Jim Crane as well, but if I have to start digging into why I should or shouldn't root for individual owners, Jerry might suddenly end up in a positive light.

Eder's almost got the reverse Dalquist. 3.1 IP, 7 hits, 2 ER (off 2 HR), 1 BB, 3 K Dude gave up 7 hits and the only runs were on two solo shots. Meanwhile, Burke's got 1 hit, 1 BB, 1 K, a stolen base and a run scored. Ramos has a double. Colson's struggling. 0-3 with 2 strikeouts.

Greg, I have a simple question for you: Do you know what the terms micro and macro are?

I'm pulling for the Astros at this point. Most of their cheaters are gone, and if we ding them for having guys from that championship team, the Twins have 2 of them. I know Keuchel wasn't a hitter, but he had to have known (after all, a reliever is the one that broke the scandal). Add in Abreu and the fact that the Twins are the Twins, it makes it easier.

Lordy

A weird day when removing White Sox personnel leads to a defensive collapse.

It's cause Carela is gonna be a 2-way player, isn't he?

For real though, if TA is our current clubhouse cancer, Bauer would be a stage 4 glioblastoma.

I definitely see Touki being retained, with an offseason fluff piece about Bannister sending him to a pitching lab and unlocking his potential.

Hell yeah Jacob Burke.

Desert Dogs are actually putting up runs this game! Burke still leading off: 1 run scored off a walk. No Ramos or Colson.

I dig it.

They're so close to being smart.

Do we know if all games are being streamed?

The scary thought is that we have no idea how Getz operates on the trade market.

Yeah, it seems like the HTML code looks at X.com like an imposter.

Colson popped out, but then made a great defensive play on a hit-and-run. Jase Bowen takes off from 2nd. Benny Montgomery hits a ball between Colson/Ramos, Colson throws out Bowen at home.

Burke reaches first on a fielder's choice. Gets to second on a balk. Colson's up with 2 outs.

Lord have mercy.

Getz: "The previous regime stuck us with a lot of bad draft picks that weren't properly developed."

There's always a fall guy in the Italian Ice stand.
