On topic, The Celtics were just sold for $6.1 billion. Look the bubble for the sports market could burst any time, but it sure hasn't done so yet.

Why? it's what they did last year and late the year before that.

don't even joke.Then cut him. Quit wasting roster spots on guys who have zero chance at being here in the future.There's an above zero chance Colas is around in 5 years. There is a zero chance that any of the 1 year older FAs are around.14 since the beginning of 2025, and 4 are White Sox? Is that accurate?A steaming pile of dump.It seems like just yesterday we were wondering about the competency of the Sox medical and training staff.The Sox would love nothing more than to feel like Colson is ready to give the job to. They are looking for any thread of success to point at to give even a sliver of hope to people. They are doing everything they can to get these guys up here.Discomfort of the elbow. Awesome.He's earned it, let's hope he is more Johan than Covey.Rinse, repeat.Because they are ditching other players to keep Coals buried.Rinse, repeat.Yet we are going to have Mike Clevinger on this rosterThen cut him or trade him. Quit wasting a roster spot 9n a dude you have no interest in playingThey also still didn't replace those missing hitters.So your argument for RUNS OF SUCCESS is isolating parts of 3 seasons down to 1 80 AB stretch where Vargas hit .239/.313/.423 for a whopping .736 OPS, with negative defensive ratings, ignoring the other 2/3 of the same continous season where he absolutely crated to .102/.215/.170 and a -1.2 WAR and are telling me that is him playing WELL? That's what you want to call REALITY?A new shake was totally going to be my bold prediction.And still no one wanted Clevinger.No one wanted him 2 seasons ago. No one wanted him last season. No one wanted him this off season. The White Sox are the only team in MLB willing to bring this dude into their locker room since 2022.To be fair the best indicator of future performance is past performance, but obviously it isn't absolute.I don't know why these meme has taken off, but it is absurd. No one is going to be mad if a Sox player has a good year. Surprised, sure. Mad? That's just dumb.Children? I sure don't see it happening "with ease". Some do, but not a ton.
