We have a nice dumpster out back.

I am so old I remember when he was a bust.

CALL CHRIS GETZ 877-CASH-NOW!

RIP Robert

The women's event being able to stand on it's own makes it more likely to remain separate because they can profit from both

Well then he has a lot in common with Leone.

You need guys like Leone to have a 130 loss team and not vice versa.

4-5 good years before age 30 is the definition of sustained success in 2024. Having a 20% above average ERA for your non-"prolonged" career, including 7 of 10 + 100 era+ seasons is getting all of the controlling years of a $15m/yr SP (2nd or 3rd rotation slot) for minimum and arbitration prices. For the Sox that means getting all of their good and cheap years before they become a free agent or get traded. He will most likely be long gone before your theoretical collapse. While you always hope for Hall of famers, if you get that out of Thorpe, that's a win for the Sox.

I don't actually believe that is true.

With a list valuation of $2.05b, that's probably an accurate open market sales price. Cash option for the powerball after taxes is probably something like $400 million.

You could win the entire powerball and take the cash option, and still not have enough money for even a majority share of the White Sox. Not even close.

11 year career. 119 career ERA+, 3.53 era. 2 full seasons with an era over 4, and 3 with an ERA+ under 100. We should be so lucky.

It is relevant because we lost Rodriguez to get Clevinger.

I will be honest, I fully believe that Getz knew what he was getting with this group. Guys to fill a position and not rush the guys who you think will be taking over in the near future. Guys who show up and work hard every day to give solid examples to learn from for the next generation. They weren't really supposed to put up stats. It's Clevinger I don't get.

Odds point to...

You called a pitcher becoming Kyle Hendriks a worry, and another prospect a problem because he was too short and I am trolling? You might be too fragile for this.

Same injury as '21.

This is the kind of analysis I have come to expect.

Not sure why that is a worry. An all star front line pitcher would be pretty nice.

Dumber and dumber.

That's just wild.

Let.It.Go.

He came because of Soxtalk

I was actually at Seton Hall for a college visit with the oldest kid. We noticed it and wondered what happened. Felt like being next to a heavy freight train. Looked it up and found it on the USGS page.

The funny thing is 1-7 (.143) actually improved our RISP from 3-25 (.120) to 4-32 (.125)
