I think the Roosevelt L might be closer to Clark than the Red Line is to Shields right now.

How far of a walk is Clark from State St? (There is a major L hub at Roosevelt/State)

He's going to get traded before his team control is up, but it probably won't be this offseason, and maybe not until next deadline. It depends on how he pitches this season.

This offseason yes. The gap between how the Sox value him and how other teams would was obvious. It can't be bridged without Cease pitching 1/2 the season for the Sox in 2024 and showing who he is. I think he's going to get traded at the deadline unless he is hurt or sucks.

yeah......that is a fair point.

Just like the Machado thread, 300 pages for something that isn't happening and never was going to happen.

From whose perspective?

His value is whatever other teams are willing to offer, not what Getz or this board wants in return.

ummmm Bruuuuce says 0% chance, Grifol names Cease OD starter. Bruuuuce wrong again?

Freddie Garcia I also nominate Jose Valentine for SS.

Ok, thanks.

please let this be true. @Y2Jimmy0 You know anything?

Ryan Howard was blocked by Jim Thome for a while. They traded Thome so they could give him a spot. Not that Howard was great, but he was very good for a while.

They should have been booing Uncle Jerry, not Krause. But I think this is because of the state of Chicago sports in general, this city is tired of losing and frustrations boiled over in our own Philadelphia moment. Not that it's any excuse. Everyone hates on Krause for what he did, but Jordan was 37, so was Rodman and Pippen was 33. They were old. It was time. They got high picks during some terrible drafts. Krause is probably the single greatest executive in Chicago history. He might have been an asshole, but that doesn't take away what he accomplished with the Bulls. Stan Bowman is the one with a large amount of success that deserves that kind of reaction.

It cannot be stated enough how badly the Bears fucked up by not taking Stroud last year.

Pitchers and catchers report in a month or so. Expecting Cease to be at Sox camp. Why? We're White Sox fans and we're not allowed to have nice things.

Bingo.

I've never been so disgusted by the state of Chicago sports. The Bears, Bulls and Sox are all clown colleges and it seems they all have the same philosophy. Not truly interested in winning championships. Sneaking into the playoffs (Playoffs?!?!?!?!) Is the goal. Chicago fans should turn them off and quit going to games en masse. It also may be that the Cubs are interested in taking this route as well now that they're off the schneid. The Hawks are so deep in a rebuild that it will take a while to see what this FO has.

Pete Carroll is like 75 years old. I'd imagine he's done coaching.

So we're looking at another lost decade. Great. Why do we even follow the Bears, Bulls and Sox at this point? Nothing they have done has proven that they have any idea what they're doing. ?‍♀️
