Continuing the Clarence Carter theme...

I don't know if we have done this before or not, but anyone got any favorite Podcasts they want to share? Right now I am bingeing History that Doesn't Suck with Greg Jackson My all time favorites are Freakonomics and Revisionist History Main Justice is a great legal podcast following a lot of the biggest cases in modern politics.

Was very encouraged by the royals series. They battled and were piranhas for the first two games. This team is not as bad as their record indicates.

I feel like reality is they need someone else in if the Bears really want to retain Chicago / Illinois - get a new fresh voice of leadership to work and build alliances to get it done right. So feels like it could be a win for both - but very clear in my mind that they have not really made much progress from 4 years ago.

They had to rewrite it after 2024

Yup. Sox landed at 7:52PM - Cle didnt land in KC until 2:21AM

Clevinger

Oh no! Hawk Harrelson used to say, you win 60 and you lose 60. It's what you do with the other 42 that count. If that holds true, looks like a Rockies sweep.

I'm sure they got back to Chicago by like 8 PM. Cleveland probably didn't leave Boston until midnight. They'll definitely be hungover.

Chill

Guys are having fun. Somehow within 20 minutes of the end of the game, they are "hammered" it's called celebrating. My guess is they had fun and were perfectly fine come this morning. Trap games occur because you look beyond your opponent. Every game is a playoff game until we are set at WC or Division champs.

Yeah him. Idk why I forgot him lol but he's my guess now. I remember someone from that core being on that list.

At the age most of these guys are at most of them were probably perfectly fine by noon

Pretty sure TA was on the list for a minute.

The game is at 6:40 tonight and they're young. They'll be fine.

I would guess more recent than that. I feel like Luis Robert that one year maybe.

Working with a killer hangover is no joke . I understand why they had to party, but judging by the pictures that I saw they got totally blasted . I wish they could have waited.

The 18.6 fWAR improvement from the team as a whole is 3rd in the 21st century. Behind 27.5 fWAR from Boston in 2013 and 21 fWAR from Kansas City in 2024.

Look, we won't "know" anything until it happens, but even before he has owned the team, the work Ishbia did around getting the Sox a new stadium puts anything Jerry did in his near 50 years here to shame. I know this is a free preview, but I think I am going to keep my subscription to see what happens.

A change in ownership is necessary, but not sufficient, to improve the fortunes of the Chicago White Sox.

16.4 fWAR improvement from the position players. Went from 3rd to last in 2025 to 5th best in 2026. And mostly on the backs of guys under 27. Really impressive from Getz and Will gets credit too for leading all the youngsters. We could have folded at numerous points in the 2nd half, never did.

Look I will take "can be" over "absolutely and I have almost 50 years of failure to prove it".

As well as the smile on his face like he knows something and you don't.

Yeah Sabrowski is just a little bit better than Thielbar

Maybe Frank Thomas?
