As the team that protected a molester for a decade, I don't think they have much room to think of their image.

Oh I got your point, I just don't think you understand that winning 63 games this year instead of 55 and then losing all of those guys anyways makes a damned bit of sense when a team is as bereft of talent as the White Sox are right now.

Here's the thing that makes that unplausible to me. The Sox already ate something to the order of what Pedro would make over the next two years to sign Bryan Shaw for a week and a half. If he was really in that big of a cost cutting mode, they wouldn't be signing Tommy Pham or Michael Clevinger. The numbers are WAY bigger for them than they are for Pedro.

No, the tank era started when every single player regressed from 2021-22, and turned the major league roster into a dumpster fire. Being ignorant of the teams position and failing to get a return for expiring assets would have only compounded the problem that this team was already facing. It is sunk cost fallacy. The failure already occurred. It's what is done afterwards that can cost the team years and prospect capital.

The Lions won as many games as the Pistons this year. I wonder if the Sox can match the Bears... (sarcasm)

It is so early for that. Again people need to keep in mind with the broken foot last year Eder is still in the conditioning ramp up phase post TJS. He needs innings and could still be physically recovering his stuff. If you include AFL, he is at about 60 inning post TJS as a starter.

They might not have gotten as much as the year before, but they would have gotten a lot.

He's hurt, shouldn't people be mocking him for being injured again?

You knew he was slumping when his numbers weren't getting updated daily.

This draft, as in three months from now, #5.

Montoyo wouldn't have taken the job of bench coach if he wasn't willing to take over as Mgr.

If you can manage the 40 man to get him here, there's literally nothing to lose, but it is worth mentioning that he screams 4A splits. AAA career 282/.366/.456/.822 MLB career .242/.298/.354/.652

Here's the thing. Mendick is not on the 40. We already have 2 40 man moves in coming with Clevinger and Pham. That would mean we need to figure out a 3rd guy to boot.

This seems like it should be really, really obvious, but apparently not for some.

He's probably pretty happy tbh. He thinks Brooks shoved him out the door.

That's fair. True crime is less brutal and gory.

He's got like 60 million reasons why.
