Get him signed quickly in 26, give him his low A/A experience, then see if he can run the three levels by the ASB/September in 27. He's one of the most league ready hitters to come through the draft in quite a while. He will tell you by his play as a pro if he can do it.

Especially if the Bears ultimately stay in Illinois, they will 100% throw billions at the White Sox. We all know how much Uncle Jerry loves other people's money. Keep in mind this is a team that hasn't been in the top half of the AL in attendance in a non-COVID season since Gordon Beckham was a starter. I know the "fans won't drive" thing is going to be repeated ad naseum like soil samples and ingresses, but "fan's aren't driving" now to see the Sox in Bridgeport unless they think they are seeing a playoff team. If you throw out the COVID years, the sox have been higher than 10th in the AL in attendance once since 2013. That is fucking terrible for an original AL team. Not sure what we are supposed to be scared of here, but low attendance is already here.

They aren't getting fans to Bridgeport for anything but championship teams.

It's not the craziest thing ever done by the Sox.

Are there that many now? Honestly they should be in the 78 above all else. I will worry about Indiana when something credible happens

Getting his kids out there for team team pic was awesome

100% This is a 5-1 game without him.

They could also take 94 or the South Shore. Also plenty of side streets and highways like 12/20

The US was so outworked and outplayed, but the G just stood on his head. Bounces want their way in OT for the GWG! Great match

If you subtract out 2020, 511 games in 5 seasons, so an average of 102. Dump out the 145 outlier, and 90 looks pretty normal.

Probably the usual spring training optimism, but we will see how many games he plays.

I called this one.

No, you know the rules and still pull crap like that, and then play stupid. It's insulting.

US v Canada in the mens as well. This is going to be fun.

I know Jerry is mad now.

NICTD is opening up a southern spur that is supposed to be really close.

I mean I get all of this too. I do think that each of these entities is acting in their own financial best interests, even if they narrow the focus to short of a time period instead of looking longer term.

Pretty sure the NFL puts up loan money to teams for stadiums.

To be fair, the state COULD have made a lease extension through the termination of the payments a part of the deal. They did not. They also could have chosen a payment schedule that paid more up front, instead of the back. They also did not. That is really poor financial due dilligence.

So what's up with Colson?

It wasn't when Cole was drafted.

Always looking to start something. Thread is fine, and you have to drag this BS in. We see you.

OK who trained ChatGPT on rayrays posts?

What a great finish to the Gold medal hockey match

The Bears are a for profit business. Why in the hell wouldn't they shop for the best deal?
