Chicago White Sox Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Manfred may be a great negotiator, but he’s as unlikable as they come. For the love of god keep him out of the press to avoid angering your fanbase with his BS & lies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 So your better off playing the stock market than owning a baseball team. How dumb does Manfred think we are? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcq Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 The value of team equity is so marked that they owners should be making offers just to take the glare away. Anyone holding a team for five years has earned a lot of equity. They need to be fair with revenue under these circumstances. Having both seems a bit greedy.

How dumb does Manfred think we are? If you cherry pick a few stocks I'll bet it's true. If you use any index it can't be close to true. Yeah, buying Bitcoin early was better than owning the Pirates.

Some highly paid experts recs haven’t matched the overall market and you have to pay them. What exactly is the huge risk owning a baseball team? Who ever went belly up? There is always a couple of billion waiting for you when you can’t handle the pressure anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should be the same in each league. I think it's special letting the pitchers bat in one league. Let them go up there and hack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't really think of it as two individual swaps but two for two a big and small for two smalls. I didn't notice it they balance AL and NL, coasts and Midwest, etc. I think with JRs history getting him out may help negotiations to move along.

If you go to the offseason thread, there’s a graphic of salary over the past 10 years, and I believe Seattle was just ahead of the White Sox having spent more than them.

Small market teams wanna cut costs no matter what. Big market teams are gonna want to start the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
