How are people still thinking it made sense roster-wise to bring back Abreu?

I just looked at the FA catchers and SPs and chose the first two uninspiring options I saw.

Kyle Gibson and Tucker Barnhart ?

Sociopathic for sure, and honestly kind of sad. It's always strange to me when that type of thing is praised or seen as a positive trait in someone.

But they had a coupon for one Gavin Sheets

Well, anything deemed controversial being labeled as politics ruins everything. Identity? Identity is good.

I know all fan bases are generally pretty insufferable by nature, but Braves fans have gone next level this postseason with the bye sob stories and reaction to the Arcia stuff. Hope Philly smokes them again tonight.

Twins have regressed from “actual playoff team” to “AL Central winner” today.

Maybe so in terms of rest, but the advantage of getting to skip the first round of the playoffs should more than make up for whatever "rust" narratives are being thrown out there.

To be clear, I have zero interest in defending the Astros, but isn’t this more of a f*** mlb post?

The more the Sox piss me off, the less energy I have to hate the twins in that rivalry way. Dare I say I’m even enjoying their playoff run? Correa is a postseason cheat code and Pablo López is a stud and seems like an excellent dude. It’s kinda fun to watch ?‍♂️

You clicked into this thread just to say this

But that IS the problem. He was a golden spikes winner and considered a very polished hitter who can quickly advance to the big leagues. He was a high pick for a reason, and with that comes lofty expectations that he’s yet to meet.

I could see Dbacks-Dodgers being uneventful (sorry Dbacks), but pretty stoked for the other series.

This is the paint by numbers White Sox offseason.

What do you mean by this?

The biggest story around the Sox is how they suck and how it sucks being a fan of them. How are you surprised that that's being talked about so much? It's virtually impossible to "talk about baseball" without it being centered around how much they suck.

I’ll be so annoyed if they don’t reach 100 losses. They don’t deserve to dodge that mark of futility.

I'm on team Stay in Chicago, but...there are also kids in Tinley...? Maybe I'm missing your point.

In a disastrous season where he was the only bright spot, he earned the right to go for some personal milestones. Obviously sucks that he got hurt, but hindsight aside, you gotta let the kid play out the season.

Touché. I simply ask that we keep it to one at a time please.

How many Pedro Grifols does one city deserve?

Maybe there's a Weird Al version of the song we don't know about that's all about how the Sox are trying to be the Royals.

I love how they’re saying these two things at the same time: 1) We can compete next year 2) We need a bunch of very different players Seems fine!

Right, they are high in the food power rankings and the talking about culture power rankings.
