Rebranding the home of the White Sox for the first time in the history of the franchise wasn't a big deal? Apparently you don't remember 2003.

The idea that the Sox wouldn't be willing to utilize Soxfest as an attention grabbing time period is absurd and false, and contra to history. Perfect example. When did the Sox announce the renaming of New Comiskey Park to US Cellular Field? When you have a concentrated group of both fans AND media in one place for the sole purpose of the White Sox, why wouldn't you take advantage of that? Just because you don't like Soxfest has nothing to do with the organization not taking advantage of a great chance to bite at the apple without sharing with any other sports teams in Chicago.

That's 1 top 20 guy if you still believe in Fulmer and want to assign him a prospect status.

Yes, why would a business that struggles to get attention and publicity utilize the one time per year when local sports media is concentrated almost exclusively on their organization to garner as much attention as possible? What a dumb idea.

It is worth pointing out that the players in the Shields trade were known for something like a week before the trade was actually announced.

After an injury like that, I am going to guess the opposite, that he is a guy who gets off to a slow start. I am going to say Luis Gonzalez out of the more well known guys, and out of the others, this is Curbelo's year to breakout.

This will be the worst cold in about 5 years. Fun.

I'd take that money in a heartbeat. Old doesn't mean stupid, and you are talking about a guy that has understood the future of technology better than most people in his lifetime.

Which means he will absolutely crater in 2019.

Like not even in the same stratosphere happy. That is a great move.

Bruh.

I'd be down with that.

I have no idea what the deal will look like, just supplying the context of the original post.

He has a 3 way switch.

That was the original people in the very first place this deal was mentioned, with Bush being the one named as a possiblity for #3.

Rick Hahn to the rescue!

This is where I am, but that is not a universal agreement.

That's why his inclusion in a trade now would be a big red flag.

Had to pick the low hanging fruit.

In all seriousness, Tyler Johnson may well be our best reliever prospect if Burdi is broken.

On the surface I would hate it, but I would also then think the Sox know he is broken on the first reflection.

You think of Johnson, I will think of Bush.

Now THIS is interesting.
