2026 MLB Draft Thread...White Sox Control Draft/Emerson gaining
I know there are the historic odds, and then the odds were adjusted a bit because of missing teams. I think we went from like 25% to maybe 29% because of teams like Colorado and Washington not being eligible.

We do a lot of that. Similar happened with Taylor.

White Sox sign Anthony Kay to 2Y/12M deal
This is the type of signings the staff needs. Even if he is still a 5+ era guy, his ability to eat innings will help a young staff. if he's Fedde2, hopefully they do well trading him something like 18 years worth of potential control.

ZIPS projection story...
A 5 paragraph personal attack all because he doesn't agree with you. Open-mindedness my ass. A few of you are absolutely determined to ruin this page, and every discussion that you don't agree with, all because you don't get your way. Tox-Talk indeed. Back when you could actually stick to debating a topic, you were a decent poster. This whole personal attacker thing just tears everything down. If you want an echo chamber, just say so.

Illinois High School Football Thread
Yeah, I don't know about anyone else, but Indianas state finals are at pro facilities when available. It does help to have the most populous city directly in the middle of the state. Basketball is played in the Pacers arena. Football is at the Colts. Baseball is at a AAA facility. Track and Field is at the facilities they built for the Pan Am games. Same with swimming.

ZIPS projection story...
As to #1, I am guessing the algos are taking in his massive slump into the equation here. Keep in mind it was only months ago he was so unplayable in AAA they shipped him back to Arizona to rebuild him. When you discuss possible outcomes you can't leave that part out. Was that mental? Was that the Colson we get when his back bothers him? We never really got told the why of things go so bad to have a better idea of the likelihood of a repeat.

Just stop with this. No one complained after 2005. Not even Lip, me, or any of the others who ruin your life by not liking bad baseball.

2025-26 NFL Season Thread
I think it is time to think these Bears might be for real. They have been no where near full strength all year long, and yet are 9-3.

When you are a combined 122 games under .500 for 2 seasons, mediocre is a large improvement.

Dylan Cease to TOR, $210mil/7 years
I mean two things can be true at the same time. Jerry Reindsdorf is embarrassingly cheap AND this is a bad contract.
