Off-Season Pass the Time Catch-All

I said Jonathan Cannon, at one point, but yeah, why not deal from strength in a crazy pitching market?

I’m all for trading Martin.  He’s not old but he’ll be turning 28 next month.  But you would have to get decent value for him.  If he’s a decent back end starter he has value.  He isn’t a free agent until 2031.  So it might be better to wait for him to put up a good full season next year before moving him.

I’d also rather keep the much younger Cannon and see if he breaks out.

Sox can’t even win most aggrieved fans. ESPN did a ranking and placed them 3rd, ahead of the Angels and Mariners cuz “things can turn around in a hurry”? Why the Mariners and Angels? God only knows. What about A’s fans? Their team left.

Angels had the two best players in the world and did literally nothing with them. Not sure about the Mariners.

Mariners went 20 years without a playoff appearance, while the Angels won a ring in that same span. M's ownership is cheap AF and continually makes cost cutting moves that make the team worse. Angels ownership at least spends money. They spend in the dumbest way possible, but they spend. Angel's fans at least got to watch two of the best players on the planet play every day while their FO tried to spend their way to winning. There are much worse positions to be in as a fan base.

A's fans just had their team ripped away from them, and Sox fans suffered through the worst season in modern baseball history. Both of those trump never winning with Trout and Ohtani IMO.

Most expensive contract from each team in the league. No surprise, only one team in the entire league has a number lower than us.

Care to guess who?

Pittsburgh?

Alrighty then folks… we have entered a new level of offseason pain. To help pass the time, I propose a community task.

Using AI, illustrate scenes from the upcoming 2025 season. Think of yourself as the Stan Lee of White Sox lore with the ability to foresee the future.

Was hoping this was you, but he’s got a much weaker beard.  I hope whomever was looking for a record-setting Sox shirt for Christmas a few weeks back saw this one.

All facts.  Period.
