The Dodgers lol. This league is just dumb. Best is those who think there are no issues. "Free Market."

White Sox contracts worth more than $100 million.... I dont think I've missed any.

Trey Mcgough (Eloy trade) decided he doesn’t want to be retired anymore and signed with the Mets.

Stiwarts Valdez is a Dominican center fielder who is 6-foot-4, 200 pounds with a standout combination of size, righthanded power and speed. He’s a plus or better runner underway with big bat speed and power for his age. He’s an aggressive hitter who will expand the zone and there isn’t a lot of rhythm to his swing, but it’s potential plus to plus-plus raw power and he has shown the ability to tap into his power against live pitching, making him a potential power/speed threat if everything clicks. Franchel Crisostomo is a Dominican righthander who is 6-foot-2, 165 pounds, a loose, limber build with significant physical upside to add to a fastball that has already been up to 93 mph. He throws his changeup with more frequency than most amateur pitchers his age in the Dominican Republic Yordany Marte, signing for $275,000, had been an outfielder until last year when he converted to pitching. His athleticism shows on the mound and he has a quick arm to run his fastball up to 92 mph, but his best pitch is his curveball, a high-spin pitch with good shape and depth that should collect a lot of whiffs. Dominican shortstop Felix Lebron is a quick-burst athlete at 6 feet, 175 pounds with plus speed, good hands, body control and a plus arm to go with a quick swing from the right side of the plate.

Isn't it fun to always talk about players we will never get?

I already posted about the McGough signing.

A "hard worker" who won't listen to instruction isn't really a "hard worker".

He's Nick Madrigal. Cocky and hasn't earned anything. "hard worker" is meaningless. everybody that makes pro ball is a hard worker. At this point in his career he either has the talent to succeed or he does not. "hard work" will mean little if it's ineffective.

Embarrassing. Jerry is a joke.

Capping referrals is fine but I love when the Dodgers do this and makes me want a cap less to shove it to Jerry.

I don’t think the Mets are a very desirable location.. I think he’s going back to the Yankees or wouldn’t be surprised if he goes back to LA at this rate 😂

Getz better pick up the phone and call the Mets. Layoff the ridiculous asking price and make a deal.

This list is correct, confirmed.

That's just it, they don't. They just want it more

This league has gotten more and more hard to watch. They are going to continue to lose viewership when one team just dominates

If not a salary cap, at least some sort of cap on deferrals

Dodgers contracts worth more than $100M: Shohei Ohtani: 10 years, $700,000,000 Mookie Betts: 12 years, $365,000,000 Yoshinobu Yamamoto: 12 years, $325,000,000 Kyle Tucker: 4 years, $240,000,000 Blake Snell: 5 years, $182,000,000 Freddie Freeman: 6 years, $162,000,000 Will Smith: 10 years, $140,000,000 Tyler Glasnow: 5 years, $136,562,500 But nothing is wrong with MLB and money.

You’re having even bigger wet dreams than @Chicago White Sox these days, I see.

100%. There is fucking parity in this stupid fucking league. If I didn’t absolutely love the Sox for some sick reason, I wouldn’t waste a second watching the MLB.

Hello lockout, my old friend...🎶

Wonder if he just got Tucker stolen from him

Ol’ Cohen seems pretty jazzed about it. I can’t think who else it might be about. 🤔

Stolen from us

Cohen for pope?

I know but the song will be a little weird if they do move there lol. I think they'll stay in Chicago ultimately. They'll figure it out. I have no information to make that up other than it's my gut.

"Bear down, Chicago Bears. You're the pride and joy of...Indiana..."

His transaction history shows he retired May 2, 2025 and was released September 23, 2025.

If he retired while still under contract, wouldn’t he still be under Sox control?

Better than the players we actually have...

BLAST!!!

Paddy? Def. Sox have spent entire pool basically.

OBP is still a thing. So is Tucker’s usual SLG.

Just to up the stakes a little, Tucker is the best available FA hitter for the next couple of years. The list of hitters that will be free agents the next two years is pretty ugly.

Yeah, he isn't getting as much love as he should. He will still get a massive contract though.

This Tucker market seems ridiculously below expectations. I really Ishbia was in charge right now because we should be all over this guy at the price points and length being discussed.

To White Sox?

"Yes, Luis Robert will defer $15M to facilitate that trade!"

FWIW, Alberto had an introductory Zoom call and Paz will have one next week. I’m not sure I recall Rule 5 picks having these types of media sessions either.

Good for him but that's kind of a bummer, I was hoping the Sox would hire him to the front office/player development staff.

Get that bag AV

MLBTR does a huge story exploring where the Pirates can turn for a bat, and they don't even include a blurb on Luis Robert. Yellow journalism, I tell ya. Where Can The Pirates Turn For Another Bat? - MLB Trade Rumors Old friend blurb:
