If that is the case, as with all trolling, how the f*** do you not have anything better to do?

Great idea. Agree that Hawaii is pretty magical and I was skeptical before the trip. Some other thoughts: Disappointments St. Louis in general. What a ghost town. It might make Cleveland look cosmopolitan Whale watching boats - Any time I go on one of those 2 hour trips I can pretty much guarantee a headache (and minimal to zero whales seen) Great Trips Vietnam - No matter the flight cost and time, this is one of the cheapest and friendliest places foreign or domestic. We took a 10-11 day roundtrip to DaNang and had a blast. We quickly headed to Hoi An and also spent time on China Beach. Beautiful countryside, history, and excellent coffee and food. The cheaper mid-tier hotels on the Hoia River were wonderful with delicious traditional Vietnamese breakfast. Renting old bicycles for a few bucks a day and riding through the rice paddies and then visiting the silk village was exhilarating. Acadia National Park in Maine- If you like hiking and lobster, you can't beat it. If you are a good hiker, you can pick tougher trails and avoid the crowds. Way better summer temps than places like Yellowstone, too. Greece - Athens is a pretty modern city now and the Parthenon's exterior scaffolding was removed last year so the experience is amazing. Plenty of beautiful islands to fit your tastes (particularly Naxos), but the mainland Peloponnese is still the most authentic experience. Get a good rental car and get lost driving around to places like Nafplion, Olympia, Monemvasia, Epidavros, etc. Outside of Athens and tourist hot spots, it will be way cheaper than you would expect.

With posting fee, they note total outlay of 85 million. He would interest me.

The MLBPA already shot that idea down.

One factoid today: November 4, 1965 – “The Senor,” manager Al Lopez, resigned his position with the White Sox for health reasons. Perhaps the greatest manager in franchise history, Lopez had nine winning seasons in his nine full-time years as field manager. He won the 1959 American League pennant and was coming off of back-to-back-to-back 90 or more-win seasons in 1963, 1964 and 1965. The Sox averaged 96 wins a season during that time span. His 840 wins are second most in team history. He returned to manage for parts of the 1968 and 1969 seasons.

I like Leila to be honest. Don’t like Payton and Haugh. Score needs to bring in new talent to mix with their current roster, not recycle friends and family of the program though. a Tyler Aoki or Shea Norling would do wonders for them.

At first, I was sure he was just angry and bitter and perhaps scared because he really really really doesn't want the Sox to move to the South Loop and he's lashing out at Ishbia because, unlike Jerry, he actually has the wealth to make this happen. But, I'm coming around to the idea that he's indeed just trolling us. I mean, much of the stuff he's spouting is so comically over the top and detached from facts that I think @ron883 is right....he's just playing us. And to be clear, fans can legitimately have the opinion that the Sox should stay at Rate Field or at least at the current site permanently and there are pros and cons to each option. But that's not what's going on here. It's just one angry gaslighting post after another with nothing insightful being said whatsoever. So, I'm leaning toward the "he's a troll" camp now.

Takes one to know one 😉

Not to be confused with bench coach W.McKinven (came from MIL) also drawing interest from other teams around the league...

Yes

Unfortunately, Jerry hasn’t sold the team yet so he is still responsible for the payroll this offseason.

"The main question is whether the weaker position player class means that Sato can get to six years and/or $25 million in AAV; I have him just missing both, but wouldn't rule out him reaching both. This contract would mean the signing team sends $19.125 million in posting fees to Hanshin, making a full outplay of just over $134 million. My guess is the upper range for Sato is the full outlay of Kyle Schwarber's $150 million deal from last winter; Schwarber is a very proven player and a similar type, even though he hit the market for his age-33 season compared with Sato before his age-28 season." Seem to be moving off 3B for Sato to RF LF 1B DH. Taira because of his size and durability concerns is going to be fascinating...$72.5 million would be just under biggest Sox contract to Beni

Have had that same projection up for a month or more "So does Tuesday's news mean anything? Not really, considering how much the cap remains a nonstarter for the union. Above all else, this latest proposal is a sign that the league is attempting to shift conversations about the cap from the theoretical to the actual. MLB's openness to delaying the cap is a recognition of the inevitable logistical conundrum that rolling out a new system would cause." yahoo.com/sports

Not even Thanos Musk Zuck Bezos Ricketts Soros Bloomberg Thiel Ellisons can stop the Ishbias!!! They are simultaneously invincible omniscient and irrepressible.

Perhaps they're looking for people a bit more youthful (no offense).

The only way to find out is to not respond, sadly, which takes away from the entertainment.

Getting Nashon back might be the move. It’s not flashy but he knows this staff

See Jaylon last year. We were so pumped for his return

Obviously I/we all don't expect this to happen, but TIFWIW.

Davis Martin is ambidextrous?

Lot of days off built into post season. Davis Martin also only pitched 1 inning of mop up ball

The White Sox are on the rise, but they need veteran enhancements across the board, and that starts at the top of their rotation. King would be the undisputed ace and most proven starting pitcher in Chicago's starting rotation, providing a needed lift to a unit that was 26th in ERA (4.60) and tied for 24th in WHIP (1.34). Moreover, their starting staff was last in innings pitched in the regular season (674 ⅔) and manager Will Venable only got 17 ⅔ innings from starting pitchers/openers across the team's seven postseason games. How is that last note even possible? On the bright side, right-hander Sean Burke (3.34 ERA and 4.2 wins above replacement across 27 starts and 32 appearances in 2026) looks like a future All-Star and left-hander Davis Martin (3.95 ERA in 28 starts, 29 appearances) has shown promise. Add King to their rotation, and the White Sox have their veteran leader

This guy is trolling us...right?
