His Facebook post. It's very interesting. But he basically calls out the media in a very big way and asks to be taken off the ballot. He brings up some very legit points...but it also seems on par with his polarizing style they disliked in the first place

Schilling is a really interesting case. His regular season numbers are good, his postseason resume is legendary, and since his retirement he is a total dick in life. The letter he wrote today probably keeps him from ever getting in at this point

Ah. I got you now. Took me a hot second.

Because he is a troll and we are all dumb enough to fall for it.

Seriously. Raga, imagine being a twins fan this off-season.

Pretty fair deal for both sides. And a good bump in salary over the #2 best catcher in baseball...

Good thing we don't have a rolling eye emoji that was anonymous...

so is Bob getting played to get another higher offer? No way any other team in baseball will give him 37-38 a year. I just don't see it.

haha. oh yeah. the playoffs in the NL is gonna be a bloodbath the next 3 years.

Why? He goes to another league, will massively underperform and in hindsight everyone will be glad that Sox didn't pay him 38 mil a season. If anything this is best case scenario as the Mets/Dodgers/Padres can all beat the hell out of each other and the Sox can destroy their division. Bauer was a dream. We all wanted him...but just because he was the shiny object. Also...if they went record breaking AAV....that is NOT going to get good return on investment.

Hey, positivity! Love it. You should really try it sometime. It's nice

You said Lynn and Keuchel are both due for regression without giving any reason why. Post one positive thing you've said this off-season. One.

Kluber replaces tanaka (I'd rather have tanaka given kluber's injury) and talilon is coming off a 2nd TJ. They are flat ...and according to resident negative Nancy...you regress automatically if you are over 30.. and yankees have many over 30.

You didn't answer my question. How have the Rays, Twins or Yankees improved this off-season? Heres a fact check...they haven't at all. And you are deflecting.

Okay, riddle me this...what have the Rays, Yankees or Twins done to fight regression this off-season? I'll wait for a realistic answer.

I think 95 wins is not ahead of anything. It's realistic without major injury. IF and it's a huge If...Katz has unlocked Cease it's better than any free agent other than Bauer this off-season. This team has flaws. All do. But I just can't see why people could possibly be down on the next 2-3 years

So eaton replacing the biggest black hole this team has ever seen and Vaughn (hopefully) replacing negative value DH value aren't major improvements? Why the duck is Lynn going to regress? You don't just find spin rate and effectiveness out of nowhere. And news flash....Keuchel is really good. If anything why aren't you talking about the definite improved production out of moncada, Eloy, robert, madrigal and potentially giolito that is coming?

4 of 10 cy young candidates. The most complete young lineup In the league and arguably the best bullpen in team history. A new analytical pitching coach and as much as I hate to say it...one of the best coaches in modern history. This is NOT some random year. The cynicism is understood from past years, but to think this team is anything but a 95 win team and a threat for the world series is baffling. Ask the Twins fans how this off-season has gone...

If you think this is an 88 win team gtfo. Seriously. You don't deserve to be a fan. Horrible division. Mediocre AL and the best offense in our lifetime.

Got it. yeah, that makes sense. Honestly I could see them merging the minor leagues into camps again. Another lost season of prospect advancement will cripple trades and talent evaluation. If you have any helium prospects...you probably should trade them now before they burst.

So...do you put Vaughn on AAA team and move him to MLB as soon as it starts? I really can't believe AAA would start before the bigs do though.

the ONLY way that Sox have any chance of getting Bauer would be if it's a 2-3 year deal...and Lynn would not be resigning at all for payroll reasons. I like the Lynn addition a lot (especially if he gets a 2 year extension), but seeing how the FA class has been slow to sign, no way the Sox expected Bauer to be this available still. I can't blame Hahn for that, but making that Lynn move so early in the offseason may have been jumping the gun a bit.

Well put together...don't sell Lynn short though. If he is what he was the last two years ..thats a plus advantage

The white sox are very likely to be in the ALCS and potentially the world series. The Cardinals have zero shot. That alone is reason...and with his ability to still be average or better... A #5 spot in the rotation is a nice landing spot for him. This move is fine. If he sucks he is being replaced by Kopech anyways...but if he is healthy...he won't suck.

F all of you for not giving Katz and Cease love. You all are gonna eat crow
