As someone who works in the convention industry, convention planners absolutely care about the hotel tax rate. Chicago already has among the highest hotel taxes in the country and a 2% increase would put it right at the top. The convention industry is still recovering from the pandemic and has been losing big conventions to other major cities. An increase would effectively kill the industry in Chicago.

If Rangers and Giants were also in to the end I would expect something "steep" if all three were bidding against each other.

Keynan Middleton rips White Sox 'no rules' culture
Sockin replied to maxjusttyped's topic in Pale Hose Talk
It would not surprise me at all if the Sox fed him this. Their new agenda is putting blame on the players who were traded for everything that went wrong instead of blaming themselves. Something that they're completely incapable of doing. -
Fegan on Score @1225 pm to discuss Sox remaining moves
Sockin replied to caulfield12's topic in Pale Hose Talk
These two statements are at odds with each other. No, we won't compete in '24 so lets keep Cease for no reason whatsoever and not trade him in a massive seller's market for a haul now -
Liam Hendriks coming up in trade discussions
Sockin replied to Sleepy Harold's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Honestly it’s the best way to cut money. -
I’m hoping the crazier these contracts get the more it’ll force/push Jerry to sell.
-
Why are people freaking out about Ozzie when Harold literally said no one, not even Jerry, wants him to be the manager.
-
How funny is it going to be when he comes back, they're in first place and the team loses 4 or 5 in a row and he still comes back next year.

Jays

10-15 min. Beat reporters will mention if they've done anything or not usually.

Twins get Fulmer
-
Fornelli usually trolls with the eyeball stuff but we'll see.
-
Honestly they do have depth at SS. if they replace Harrison and TA with Sosa and Sanchez it might be good enough to get you through until/if TA comes back and lets you know if both of those guys can hit MLB pitching.
-
Get Sanchez and Sosa up here if he has to miss extended time.
-
I mean if he’s done for the year they have to go sign Conforto, right?

OF Help at last!! White Sox acquire Haseley from Phils
Sockin replied to KrankinSox's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Hoping this is a domino effect and we see more moves now. -
Offseason Part 3 - Because Part 2 Was a Dud
Sockin replied to CentralChamps21's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Same, it’s a good problem to have and you have no clue what Colas and Cespedes are going to be. All reports are Cespedes might not even be a big leaguer. -
Harold said he was their guy but something tells me they’ve been priced out at this point.

Sockin replied to CentralChamps21's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I know they know people in the org but I don’t know how legit the sources are. -

Sockin replied to CentralChamps21's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I know one of the guys who run that account and they’re thinking a Kimbrel for Bellinger swap. I don’t think they have any legit sources though. -

Sockin replied to Chisoxfn's topic in Pale Hose Talk
The 3 bats the Sox are interested in are Schwarber, Conforto and Castellanos. -

I think the Sox would like a bidding war.
