Are the Nationals breaking up their rebuild to start another rebuild?

Ok. You said not adding seems to fail in the postseason. And then you said the Cubs don’t need to add when the rest of their division is subtracting. So, not adding is bad, except for when it is fine?

Come on, we all have that one hobby we love that we completely suck at, don’t try to get better at, and don’t actively participate in.

These seem contradictory, no?

Joke’s on them. The 2026 White Sox would beat a team fielded by only Kyle Tucker 7 times out of 10.

I miss the bears

I wanna give a shoutout to @Kyyle23 for sharing all the "good better best" locker rooms videos each week. Helped make a really fun season and an engaging soxtalk community even better.

He keeps saying it

Honestly the Dodgers should sign me for like $2 million. Just look under the couch cushions.

Houston’s D is nasty as hell and really fun to watch. I think they’re gonna give the Patriots all they can handle. If the Texans can get any sort of offense going I think they have a pretty good shot here.

Damn you. I read this in his voice and now I’m preemptively mad about a signing that won’t even happen.

Hey, let's make it about that: https://www.mlb.com/news/top-100-mlb-players-for-2026-by-mlb-network Colson #88. I choose to believe this is as low as he'll be on this list for several years. Obviously no other Sox crack the list.

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.

What a shame if his final NFL pass is a pick 6 to seal a playoff loss.

He missed almost 50 games last year. It’s still an overpay, but if you’re a contending team and your main focus is to not overpay for a good player, well, you’re not gonna be signing any good players.

I wonder how Bregman fares hitting in Wrigley. He has a similar pull heavy profile to Isaac Paredes, who struggled big time in his stint with the Cubs. That left field corner is no joke.

Except you don't actually know this and therefore you don't automatically get to decide that it's true.

And lol at "at least 7 years"

I'm almost always in the camp of "get the guy you need now and worry about the back half of the contract later" but 7 years for Bellinger would be wild.

Ha! I have no recollection of him.

Go get this guy. Also, who is this guy?

30 rec, 350 yds, 5 td. Bears win in triple OT, naturally.

Oh hey aren’t you the guy who knows for a fact what Eloy’s motivation is for playing winter ball?

Anything specific you like about that matchup? The rams offense vs the bears defense feels like a nightmare scenario to me.

With a cool 1-3 playoff road record during that span. Also you’re missing 4 home wins in your breakdown.
