Also apparently the first time anyone wore a throw back was the Sox wearing these in the 90s which blows my mind

I hope they don't force everyone to wear the goofy high plain white socks like when they've worn these in the past. Also not trying to go 1-to-1 replica on these was a good choice.

To be perfectly honest I watch every pitch in abject terror after what's gone one this year

Who's saying that? Cease over Keuchel is a no brainer right now imo

You're right but not many guys have turned 20 mil into 3-4 billion just from owning sports teams. For better or worse (definitely worse) Jerry might be THE key figure in the total commodification of sports

Every owner in sports is living the JR Model (TM). When it comes to making money, there are very few better, and that's all anyone who owns a baseball team cares about.

He'll probably be around on the 28-man, but I am really struggling to think of a single use case for him in a playoff series.

I don't think he makes any sense to carry on a playoff roster at this point at least

My one thing is I am really struggling to see how this plan ends in a title though. At least I'll actively enjoy Bulls basketball now though.

It uhhhh certainly seems like. Zavala is back there again today.

People getting legitimately pissed about this is the first time I've thought to myself that they're are people out there just dying for a pick with tony. Was it over the top? Yeah, probably. But get lost if you're going to get high and mighty on a soap box on this one.

He was also hurt when they drafted him.

Conversation came up last night. Is Kimbrel a HOFer? Probably not but he does feel like one. probably the best reliever since Rivera

I don't think madrigal has anywhere near the ceiling Torres does and did. And while that trade hurt, it was Quintana that killed them

Yes

Will say it’s kinda neat to see the two best pitchers of my baseball watching days in the same rotation

Nats got two top twenty guys. So no I don’t think so. correction I misread 61 as 16. But still no.

Dodgers paid like a tiny bit more for trea turner and max scherzer than the Cubs did for Jose Quintana lmao

nobody cares. I’m saying it’s fucking baseball dude. Literally anything can happen in 7 games. And I’m taking the field every single time

Friendly reminder that the 2017 White Sox won 6 straight games against the eventual champion

I’d prefer the brewer knock them out, but it’s far from impossible.

Playoffs are like 85% luck man

If I see another person say any given playoff team can’t compete with another I’m gonna lose it I tell ya

Padres feel like those early aughts Red Sox teams

Just gonna be a more fun story when the giants hang on
