Oh I know, I live in Bridgeport.

That stretch of I55 is always a mess when I have to drive that way. I walk to the Target right there and it’s incredibly pedestrian unfriendly already. It also won’t be any better of a draw for casual fans/tourists than Armour Square. If they are moving within the city, that really needs to be something given real consideration.

I’ve never been to a game at Soldier Field so I don’t rightly know about fan shuttles/trolleys. If they don’t it’s an easy answer. It’s a trek from the L on foot and the busses aren’t much better. As for car access, the museum campus is physically more limited than 35th & Shields, there is no side street access, and LSD backs up far more in my experience on days with events at Solider Field than at GRF. Maybe it’s not all that different for the average commuter, IDK.

A game day shuttle between the new Damen Green Line stop and the Blue Line might make some sense on the Westside, but the footprint of available space is incredibly limited near the UC.

I get wanting to tap into the tourist traffic frequenting the museum campus, but even with added service on the Metra, Soldier Field is still far too far-centric to be a realistically functional location for 81 baseball games over a summer.

The best available space is where the original Comiskey once sat. Where else in the city are you going to have direct access to three transit lines and an expressway, without needing to drastically alter how fans reach the game?

81 games at Soldier Field... and they think attendance is low now...

I’m right there with you. I’m not thrilled about Getz, but Moore might be the end for me.

While we're at it, might as well require a tie and a dinner jacket to enter the stadium. No more baseball caps either. Fedoras at minimum. All these fancy gimmicks and merchandising ruined a fine American sport!

Bring back muttonchops too damnit!

More pipe organ damnit!

All baseballers should have 70s staches, mullets, pants as tight as Robbie Ray, rock a half buttoned jersey like Rodon, and wear more bling than Mister T. I'm sorry if you don't like it, but thems the rules.

Just playing around, on my desktop the link is twitter.com and it embeds fine. On mobile the copied link is x.com. I have to change it to twitter.com and delete everything after the ?, including the?, then cut and repaste.

The Sox play in the worst division in baseball. If they played Tex, Hou, Sea, & Shohei a dozen times a season theyd be a 90 loss team already.

Both. Bottom 5 in most categories. -300 run differential too.

There were plenty of ‘sell the team Jerry’ chants last inning.

“SELL THE TEAM FISHER!”

35th & Shields?

The wording of the article still makes it feel like speculation on Morosi's part.

Can you fire someone that technically doesn’t work for you?

This is my thinking as well. I think Getz is a lock, I just hope its as a GM doing the everyday duties below a legit baseball ops person and not as *the* decision maker.

Hopefully.

Because keeping Yaz around makes SO much sense...
