So all that "new network, more spending" was bullshit, right?

Well, they are short term screwed with the massive debt used for fans that won’t materialize for at least a few years.

Long term the Cubs will continue to have a significant advantage over the White Sox, at least until there is a change in ownership.

I clicked Steamer, here are the depth chart comparisons (Zips + Steamer)

Cubs: Hendricks 2.8; Davies 1.3; Mills 1.2; Alzolay 1.2; TBD.

White Sox: Giolito 3.1; Lynn 3.1; Keuchel 2.0; Kopech 1.5; Cease 1.2.

Until they clear up that fraudlent ownership structure, they are screwed.

The Cubs dumped their best pitcher, are in absolute teardown mode, and have zero hope for anything but steeper decline on the horizon.  The Sox are one of the hottest teams in the league, just added a top 5 in CY voting starter, and have two months to add more.  The general mood and level of despondency on the teams’ respective message boards is roughly the same.  “What a league.”

Remember the Phillies and their “H2O” trade when they acquired Roy Halladay to go with Cole Hamels and Roy Oswalt? This reminds me of that. Everybody panicked and were afraid of them but it didn’t quite work out like the Phillies planned. 
 

So you’re saying don’t trade for good players?
