Or you could just do both. Trade him for the return you so badly need in position players/prospects AND then go and try and sign him in free agency. But again, we know those odds as well.

You aren’t going from 50 wins in 2025 to competitive in 26 with that roster. Even if the fantasy of all of that pitching works, this is still one of the worst offenses in baseball, and as a bonus you just lost Crochet for nothing as Jerry was too cheap to make Garrett a qualifying offer.

This relationship is in the best shape of its life!

Where are you getting this from? There is zero actual evidence to support anything and all publicly available materials contradict that Jerry isn't on board with it.

What if I told you that statistical changes have happened over the history of baseball and the Hall of Fame adjusted to those changes? The game of baseball in 1901 is not the same game we play today in 2024.

Nooooooo not Nicky!

I don't believe that Daniels, or anyone else, would be succeeding with the Beras.

I can't understand why they wouldn't tbh.

You get a choice of 100% for shorter periods of time, or a lesser percentage for a longer period of time. I don't know why the Boomer crowd gets so bothered by this, but it is physiological fact. You can't run a marathon at the same pace you run the 100 meter dash. Why do people think you can pitch at a full out rate for 200 plus innings? That's why their bodies are breaking down. Besides Gossage was a reliever himself. He should understand this better than most.

It checks out.

Knowing the Sox penchant for communications, we will find out something when pitchers and catchers report in February.

The Bears are trying to make the White Sox look professional.

I will say this much, if this kid is anything like Ohtani, he will make tens of millions of dollars off of the field in the next few years anyway, so his signing bonus, while nice, isn't going to be nearly his primary means of income until his second contract anyway. Getting into a bigger Japanese community for endorsements will probably pay him a ton more than his signing bonus will.

That is a crazy number for the NFL, let alone NBA.

The bar is so low that these days, not making an obviously stupid hire is a thing to be celebrated.

And what if I win the mega millions this week?

This honestly reads like the Dodgers are avoiding tampering charges

Aren't you the one pretending that Jerry didn't go downstate to get money for this very stadium project a couple of months ago? You need to take your own advice.

Boy you could just as easily be talking about Jerry at 35th here.

The funny think is I bet the Sox have one of the largest unused pools for next year, like usual, and probably could be a leading bidder, but i doesn't matter at all.

Why does it bother you so much that people are pissed off after the worst season in MLB history? Oh right.

But I thought all our hires were amazing?

#1 No reason for him to want to come here. #2 Not enough Yen even if would come.

Could be?

As opposed to being mad enough that people are mad after the worst season in MLB history that they need to gatekeep what everyone is allowed to be mad about. Speaking of inventing things..
