That's actually fairly normal in the conditioning in the recovery season post TJS. He never really got that time to recover last year with the broken foot.

It amazes me that a cross section of our players have been banished forever, but a guy with the history of Kopech? No problem.

He's also playing half of his games in a horrible hitters park.

Taylor is another one rebuilding himself into game shape

Quality work to ask him to justify something that hadn't happened yet when he made his post.

They also start their pitchers once a week.

To be fair greg told is this was a .460 to .480 winning percentage team.

Maybe if the internet goes down.

It's been 64 years...

You CAN quantify those odds. We know historical information for 10s of thousands AB, complete with counts, match ups, situations etc. But odds and probabilities are all they are. You are trying to make them into something omniscient with all you are putting on them. It's not perfect for sure, but it is WAY more accurate than pure randomness.

There was a reason he was a free agent in April with his bat.

What in their algorithm do you disagree with specifically?

You and numbers don't really get along.

The story then was that the Eloy part was agreed to early, but the deal got done when the Cubs stepped up with Cease.

I am just going to say it. There are a million news stories to say that you are wrong here. Jerry Reinsdorf himself went to Springfield to lobby for money for this exact project. Unless you have actual evidence, and not just your own spin, you are 100% wrong here. If that bothers you, either show some evidence or go away.

You don't say.

Forget it, he's rolling.

You are going to die anyway, so kill you now and get it over with.

Of course they did. Welcome to 2024.

MLB cares about money, and there is a LOT more of it in Chicago than anywhere else left to put a baseball team, especially if we are talking about a couple of billion for an expansion team. With Vegas off of the map, it isn't like there is some huge market waiting for a team. Chicago is just under a 10 million person metro area. That is like 3 million if you even carve it down to 1/3 of the market. Every single market of that size already has a team in the US. The closest is Charlotte at 2.8 million. Nashville and Indianapolis are like 2 million people. Portland is 2.5 million. Salt Lake City is 1.2 million people. No where else nearly that small has a team in MLB today. Remember there will two expansion teams, and the odds are if the team moved, it would be to one of those markets, so essentially that means Chicago has a HUGE size edge on anyone else. It's not about emotions, it is about dollars, and Chicago has more of them, even divided up, than any other market place left.
