I wonder if JR even thought of pivoting to the "Rail Yard" as Plan B? Given his age I doubt it. Ishbia otoh is playing the long game with owning the team and also building a new stadium. I would think he will want to own the park and not have the ISFA involved. Even from a public relations angle Ishbia is showing his brilliance, Metra is building the new rail yard in Bridgeport. Federal money not State or City money will be spent on the rail transfer at 14th street.

I would have voted Hell Yes, but it wasn't an option. Good vibes for the future, love it.

A call up to start? or a bullpen game?

Here is why JR doesn't matter, have you heard him say anything about what Ishbia's plans are? Bueller? Bueller? Bueller?

I agree that JR can still screw things up in the present for the team. But JR is basically a lame duck on any local Chicago stadium desires Ishiba has.

The Sox entrance to the upper deck was the issue. If the entrance was in the middle of the upper deck and you walked up or walked down to your aisle would have solved the problem. Nobody complains about Dodger Stadium.

JR doesn't matter, this is Ishbia's time.

I don't want to see Acuna in the starting lineup until the Sox are up 7 with 6 games to go.

Let the Twins beatdown continue, Mune hits #30 tonight, the slug is athing.

it already is rolling, without JR

The new park would be accessible from Ogilvie by walking a couple blocks to the Green Line and getting off at Roosevelt, easy peasy. I assume the property's west of the new park would also be developed. Also, I envision shuttle's to parking lots like the Cubs do. If the Cubs still draw hayseeds from Iowa the Sox can draw from the Chicagoland area.

Good info

When the Sox slug, they are no slouches, FEAR The Sox. 26-14 against the AL Central, that is taking care of business.

Romo is on the Taxi Squad

I hope Teel is in the starting lineup tonight.

Teel's bat is the weapon our catching has been lacking all year.

Steve Stone was on the radio this morning and he mentioned if the Sox could tinker with Castillo's arm slot. I agree with you about trying an opener. If they can't get him right, then come up with some fictious injury and sit him down.

OMG , I hope it's not that bad☹️

I drove up to Minneapolis through a snow blizzard to attend the Hormel Foods Baseball Classic on March 1, 2002, at the Hubert H Humphrey Metrodome. The teams were Minnesota, Alabama, Tennessee, and Florida Atlantic. The whole time I was white knuckling it on I-94 I knew there was going to be baseball when I got there. That was the only thing that validated the HHH Metrodome.

Buxton and Joe Ryan are still on the IL. Sox beatdown begins Friday night through Sunday night, Mune and the boys bring out the lumber. Monday will be a day of rest.

Magic Wand Night! Sox start kicking butts and taking names, it's Friday Night at the Rate.

It will be interesting to see how he is used in 2028 either as a starter or relief.

I agree the open-air ball parks are the best. But if we had the terrible summers of Az, Texas, and Florida sign me up for a dome.

Martin looked excellent and if he can pitch like that the rest of the season, it will take care of some the pitching issues. The Sox couldn't touch Wesneski's sweeper. That was by far the best sweeper I have seen go up against the Sox all year. Braden smokes a line drive that Altuve leaps up and catches, then Altuve drops Chase's liner and gets a double play. Sometimes it just isn't your night.

Sounds good as long as Teel doesn't get reinjurned.
