True, winning seasons in 90, 91, 92, 93, 94 and 96 with a playoff appearance.

Strange, isn’t it? Although Elias still didn’t really give up his top prospects here either.

The stadium thing is really easy. The owners of the Bears do not have the wealth to build the stadium alone. They need assistance or leverage the team. They could save 30% if not more building in Indiana and probably at least 15% building outside of Cook County. If the state is not going to help offset the cost of building in Illinois and Cook v Indiana they will not be playing in Illinois. Indiana having two great domed stadiums while Illinois has no legitimate stadium in the entire state. Illinois pisses away billions on nonsense. This is a no brainer for Illinois and I do not care if Economists say it is not worth it. A good amount of government expenditures are nonsense. I'm Ron Swanson and I approve of this message

I would think this gives them the biggest bonus pool.

Too bad they weren't willing to do this a couple of years ago, it might have kept their window open.

Collectively the offense needs to be more in sync this time around. I expect DJ Moore to perform like he is paid and for the backups and other weapons to move the ball and execute this Saturday. They have to be in sync from the beginning if they want to beat the Packers. Don’t let the Packers offense get those explosion plays and the defense needs to live up to its identity if they expect to win.

Must have been a substantial deal. I wonder who/why?

LF/1B. He can be a third catcher allowing Teel and Quero to be in the lineup together. Just an idea.

The competitive balance pick is huge as well. Extra bonus pool space and pick number 33 is massive for a team like the Rays. Sheesh.

All. The. Catchers.

We’re trading him for D. Rushing.

Starting pitcher Grant Taylor? Or reliever but non-closer Grant Taylor?

How about Grant Taylor?

That’s the Orioles #10, #11, and #30 prospects according to MLB Pipeline, and I’m sure the Rays chose wisely as usual.

What a haul.

Wish we had some pitching to sell. What could Davis Martin bring back?

They had an agreement fall through apparently.

Jerry is running a 90's era payroll...

One of their best eras of winning.
