Pour one out for Curt Flood.

Too much dick.

Have some respect for the Sox teams that had the misfortune of running into a dynastic buzzsaw. And we can get credit Comiskey's cheapness (sound familiar?) leading to the Sox being uncompetitive for decades. Basically: Charles Comiskey and Jerry Reinsdorf suck, but don't lump the teams that tried to compete in with this.

The crowd sure hated this:

While I'm not condoning it, if we're really gonna start making big deals about players cheating on spouses and what not, it's probably time to start clearing out some clubhouses.

I mean, Gordon talks a lot about how he let mental pressures get to him. I'd just like to see the Sox get some extra outfield help and not place the task of replacing Jose Abreu on Colas' shoulders. I think Colas could be that guy some day, but I'd like to see them give him some room to struggle if he does.

I love Colas as a prospect, but Houston was less relying on Pena and more "supplementing a loaded lineup with Pena."

It's cause he's a shortstop isn't it? We famously only have stoic shortstops on the Southside.

I'm all aboard this Mets bandwagon, hot damn. Imagine a team having James McCann in their lineup and going "we're not gonna rely on that rinky dink bat. Better fill the holes with fat stacks of cash."

I only need 15.1 WAR - I just want him to set the record and dethrone 1923 Babe Ruth

And what glorious at bats they were.

The Yankees: "Oh, no. Please, stop. Not Josh Donaldson, we could never afford to lose him!"

In a world where we can have nice things, give me Rodon - then spend "cheap" money on Gallo and Profar to appease Jerry. Assume Carlos is $30M and Gallo/Profar are $10M each - you've suddenly got a shored up outfield defense, lefty bats, some rotational depth with, a lefty (an ace to boot!) --- the payroll would be at $218 million, which would currently be 5th in MLB (just behind the Braves, far behind the NY teams and Philly).

Because people want to be proven right on his risky health. I wanna see Carlos get the bag he rightfully deserves and that the Sox should have given him.

I hear you, but also, Michael Conforto.

Honestly, I'm beginning to feel for the scouting department.

Imagine if we had locked him up with some escalating options or something a few years ago. Just imagine we had former Sox major leaguers Jose Abreu, Carlos Rodon, Chris Bassitt, Marcus Semien and Jose Quintana.

Engel and Victor Reyes are much better AAAA depth than we're used to. The problem is right now we don't have the OF depth to make them AAAA depth.

Give me nine dudes who bat flip and are All-Stars.

Everyone else: Arms race Reinsdorf: "You all hurt Tony's feelings, so no."

Dear Lord.

Steve Cohen is just flexing on the rest of the league my GOD.

Put some respect on former White Sox top prospect Simon Castro! For real though, if anyone thinks the current farm is bad, the Nestor Molina / Simon Castro days were real bad.

Clearly not grasping for straws here.

Ethan Katz with Carlos Rodon vs. Don Cooper with Carlos Rodon?
