It’s very likely that Nastrini doesn’t even leave Chicago. He’ll be back up in a matter of days.

The lakefront is a great location for an open air stadium. Putting a dome there is criminal.

They aren’t getting a new stadium. Both the lot 78 stuff and Nashville bs are a pathetic attempt by Jerry to strongarm the state into renewing the favorable and borderline criminal lease terms he has at GRF right now.

No he’s literally paying himself and will massively cut costs. Think broadcasters working multiple sports/teams, co branded content, etc. If you throw in some cheap Bears content, it easily outperforms Marquee and gives him leverage with carriers. Long story, short, putting the teams on Stadium makes Jerry money and that’s all he cares about.

Because Jerry is paying him for two more seasons. It’s not the correct answer but it is the answer in this organization.

They are tied to the Bulls and Jerry because of shared UC ownership. Stadium is also headquartered out of the UC so I imagine there is a financial situation that is pretty significant for an NHL team if they can get MLB/NBA money. Don’t forget that Jerry is a real estate guy and that late how he makes his money. Look no further than the borderline criminal lease agreement he has for GRF.

.228 would’ve been the second highest BA in the lineup today. Just saying…

Correct. I was talking about the 2025 pick. Regardless it doesn’t matter. The guy that was the Director of Player Development and failed all of the recent highly rated prospects is now the GM so…

I certainly don’t disagree but it’s a business. Pedro and Getz are very likely the cheapest manager and GM in MLB. He has a sweetheart stadium deal. Revenue sharing is still a thing. Short of hiring Ozzie, which he won’t do, no one is watching the team anyways. If he drives down attendance and viewer ratings he can get a lower price to move the teams to Stadium to pad his own bank account. Don’t underestimate how much of a piece of s%*# Jerry is…

We knew last season that he was in over his head. It’s been reported that Jerry has told insiders that he knew by mid-summer that Pedro had put in a fireable effort. Pedro is on a 3 year deal. He will be here through the entire season and likely start next season. Jerry isn’t going to pay two people to manage a team that’s going to lose 100 games regardless.

The towel was thrown in 1981…

It’s #10. It doesn’t matter anyways. It’s not like they can develop talent anyways.

Under 64.5 looks better every single day.

I’m very interested how bad it has to get before they can someone.

Wasnt Rodriguez a prospect with at least a bit of possible upside? How the hell to you trade him for cash? I mean, I know the answer since JR is the owner but still…
