Tim Anderson in Field of Dreams

I have complete faith that the Bears will screw this up.

As Whataboutisms go, We did it before, so why not keep doing it the same way is a pretty awful one. There is nothing wrong with learning from what you know today and adjusting your thinking to match. As for Curt, I always kind of felt his peak didn't last long enough, or wasn't great enough to overcome the rest of his career. He didn't hit any of the big key numbers. He never won a Cy Young. Close, but not quite for me.

It would absolutely shock me if Jose Abreu weren't on the 2024 White Sox.

He's not in the top 50 is all I have seen.

No idea where he fits in, whether it is here, or just a general MiLB signing.

I would guess some signings haven't been announced. Our classes are always small, but I expect it to be more than 3.

Ortiz getting in is a joke.

Boras is cleaning up.

So it won't be long before he Cease's to be a White Sox.

I think the evidence is really heavy that the Sox are WAY more comfortable waiting for the inevitable Cuban exile to pop up, than allocating millions to 13 or 14 year olds.

Your sample size is zero. Look I have no idea how many people we are going to sign, but I don't know why the assumption is that this will be our worst class ever.

2018 was our first year in the penalty box after signing Luis Robert when we were not able to sign anyone for more than $300,000.

So interestingly enough, apparently the comp for Prieto... is Nick Madrigal. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2022/01/details-on-the-orioles-signing-of-cesar-prieto.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=facebook

We have never had a class of only 3 players announced.

Sounds like he will be here whenever 2022 season starts.

I wonder if it has anything to do with there being a small chance of him making it to Chicago this year if everything goes right.
