We know you’re not going to provide a trade of your own…apparently everyone prefers a 4-5 year rebuild.
I assume you’ve looked at who is receiving at-bats in the 2024 projected Fangraphs outfield.
2023
Luis Robert 5.0
2nd place 1.4 fWAR
2022Dalton Varsho 4.8
Jose Abreu 3.8
2021
Anderson 4.6
Moncada 4.0
Varsho 2.3 in 95 games would be roughly 3.5-4.0 extrapolated out for a full season
2020 Abreu 2.8 (would have to be projected)
Anderson 2.4 (would have to be projected due to Covid season)
2019Moncada 5.5
Anderson 4.5
Lots of 4.8 fWAR and above seasons in there…
Buddy I’m not contributing to your fever dreams, just laughin and gruntin

Bears hiring Eric Washington as Defensive coordinator. Eberflus will continue to call defensive plays. He is not a serious head coach

The Sox need a lot of things. Jerry isn’t gonna do a majority of these things.

It sounds unhinged but this guy is such a lifer I wonder if there is any coach he'd consider helping. More likely he goes to an advisory role while he waits out a gig. But I do joke about that moment where Belicheck was so laudatory to Flus after the bears whipped the patriots last year.
This cycle was wild to me. I'm embarrassed to be shocked that Brian Flores got no real traction after what he did in Minnesota this year. I'm pretty amazed Macdonald may end up without an HC role. Vrabel not being immediately snatched upf loors me.
And mainly it's because they are choosey, but considering some of the coaches (1-year OC in Canales, LInebacker coach in Las Vegas, Non-play calling OC in TN, Linebacker coach in NE) it's very surprising.
But also kinda good news for the bears as when I really was tipped over the edge on us not getting a coach was when it was clear vrabel would be available. That guy can coach.
I think Flores will forever have what happened in Miami as an albatross around his neck. Absolutely wrong, he shouldn’t, but owners are a boys club that you can’t cross
-
Man, it’s looking increasingly more likely that Belicheck gets iced out. That’s crazy
-
Bucs OC Dave Canales to the Panthers as HC
-
I wonder where Vrabel ends up now. Would be cool if the Bears brought him in as DC although I doubt Flus would want that situation breathing down his neck

GRF may never see major renovations, but Area 78 is never going to happen. lmao.
Man talking about building a second deck on an-almost 35 year old stadium has thoughts on things not happening, lmao

And also Balta, you are also correct that they aren’t putting a second OF deck on 35th and Shields lmao

This is a MAJOR project, fwiw. It will probably cost less than the full 78 site, but you're basically talking about spending so much money that you might as well build a new ballpark. The outfield isn't built to support the weight of an entire second story on top of it, so you are completely rebuilding the support for the outfield while also stripping off and redesigning the infield - while also considering how this will change factors like wind, sunlight into the luxury boxes, etc. It would be difficult to strip off most of the upper deck while still preserving the luxury boxes, and that would look straight up odd in addition to being a high cost.
If you're going to spend hundreds of millions to renovate a park into something monstrous at a bad site, just pass on the idea and spend more to build something FAR BETTER at a good site.
For example, if your options are a beautiful domed football stadium in the suburbs or building a monstrosity on the lakeshore that looks like you landed a spaceship inside a once historic building that everyone hates because it is awful and hard to get to, do not build the stupid space ship. It will be a massive waste of money, it will look ridiculous, and in 20 years you'll be tired of it and wanting the actual professional building in the suburbs. This may or may not be relevant to any other team.
When referring to the other team, that stadium was also the third smallest in the league the moment it was completed 😂
(and now, 20 years later when all of the above you wrote is also true, it is the smallest by almost 2K seats)

Ah yes, not signing for 5/150M in January = done
but seriously, I bet RME JICO and Mr Showtime have thoughts also

I think it's more that the lease of the current ballpark is up in 5 years and they need to start applying leverage to the state to work on the deal.
But it probably does ay a factor.
Is this in response to something I said?

Neither Chapman is “done”. No idea what he talking about.
Certainly not the one who posted 4.4 war on a playoff team last season (granted his elite defense makes that number pop)

Are you talking about Matt or Aroldis. Because he is talking about Matt, and Matt doesn’t seem to be done at all

There's no way in hell our Sox are moving downtown. Book it. It's a stupid move bucking all trends regarding inner cities. You move to the suburbs or another city in another state.
https://www.mlb.com/news/mlb-parks-from-oldest-to-newest
I don’t believe most of the last 10 stadiums built in the MLB support your theory, but the last two were out of their respective cities(Newest)
Globe Life (Texas Rangers)
Truist park (Atlanta Braves)
Loan Depot Park (Miami Marlins)
Target Field (Minnesota Twins)
Yankee Stadium (duh)
Citi Field (Mets)
Nationals Park (Nationals)
New Busch Stadium (Cardinals)
Citizens Bank Park(Phillies)
Petco Park (San Diego)
if I am not mistaken, all but the last two are right smack dab in their cities

obviously it's something to discuss, but when you think about it, this whole thing is laughable. The state will significantly help build a new park, while they have another a short distance away in perfectly fine condition?
Or Jerry Reinsdolrf is going to spend a billion or two of his own money building the park? C'mon. man.
Unless Jerry has decided to pass on the team to Michael, it really doesn’t make sense. It it not likely that Jerry will be around to see the team play at another location in the city and doesn’t make sense that he would be all in on it

Ha, oh man this hoge and jahns with the Seattle beat writer. Basically states all the good things in seattle were because of Pete and the players and all the bad things were Waldron.
Parkins and Spiegel had Dave “Softy” Mahler on today and he said a lot of the same stuff, he said that Waldron is very boring in his playcalling and hasn’t made anyone better. Very reassuring

No those are three of the best head coaches in the league that have done it successfully. I watched Flus ignore the offense for two seasons and had his fucking DC go AWOL and now he is back doing what he wants to do, being a DC. We already knew he could do that, he sucks at making sure the other side of the ball is in order
also, all three are offensive head coaches and the bears as per usual throw a wish and a prayer that the OC is doing it right
