Yes especially when you have no idea how much Yas can catch.

Will the Sox ever outdraw the Cubs again?
In Philadelphia, the Football stadium, baseketball and football arena, and baseball field are all in one complex. I just don't the the Sox fanbase is in Arlington Heights. Their attendance might drop.

What is status of Luis Robert?
I wonder if it has anything to do with when he had Covid.

What is status of Luis Robert?
Usually he knows his movies. I've always liked his reviews.

JR: No comment on TLR job security
If Tony were stepping down during the break, I doubt it wouldn't have been announced or at least someone with more credentials leaking it. We are stuck with this clown.

FanGraphs on TA's Speed
He's had a lot of hammy and groin issues. I don't think he neccessarily busts it a full 90 feet, but picks it up at the end if he needs it. Would love to see him with no leg issues fully busting it. I doubt he still would be 80 percentile.

The other problem would be the vast majority of people in Arlington Heights and surrounding suburbs (its where I grew up) are Cubs fans. The place would probably be even more empty.

Will the Sox ever outdraw the Cubs again?
If Fields winds up sucking, I think you would have no problem finding enough people to embrace a 2nd Chicago team. They used to have 2 teams. As long as the McCaskeys own the Bears, a 2nd team has a fighting chance.

White Sox select Noah Schultz #26
The guy is always going to be able to go back to college and will instantly be a multi-millionaire. Plus, at least for the top prospects, there is usually a provision in their contract that will have the team pay for college if they ever decide to go back.

2022 MLB Draft Thread
6'9". touched 98. MLBN guy said they had him in the middle of round 1 before he got mono. Other than 1st round HS pitchers usually disappoint, he has some potential.

Aaron Bummer status?
Read about late strains. They average. A out 3.5 months missed. He'll be lucky to return this season.

Eloy is dead. Again.
I'm not giving up on Eloy. The talent is there for an easy 40 HR guy. Somehow he has to figure out how to remain healthy and he will be the position player version of Rodon.

Whitesox @ Twins 6:40PM The Chase to .500 continued
He’s been hitting the ball pretty hard lately. I was there on Sunday and he hit 3 or 4 balls on the nose and maybe had 1 hit.

Minor Leaguers raise issues with Whitesox application of new housing policy
Most A ball players make $500 a week, AA $600 a week, AAA $700 a week, and that is only during the season. Getting your own place is going to trim the food budget to cat food. The guys who received big bonuses should be fine, but the vast majority can’t do it.

Minor Leaguers raise issues with Whitesox application of new housing policy
Especially when you are willing to blow $9 million on a couple of months of Yonder Alonso. The money they waste every year at the major league level would be enough to house and feed minor leaguers in luxury for decades. I guess the mentality is the vast majority won't make it, but why not give everyone the best chance to do it?

Whitesox @ Twins 6:40PM The Chase to .500 continued
I want the Sox to sweep, but if they do that means more Tony for sure, even if that report has any truth in it. Just win.

Hope hes OK. The leg was never 100%.

He wasn't paying attention until it was too late.

7/13-White Sox / Guardians - The Fall of TLR Begins —6:10
It shouldn't be that tough for an athlete of TAs level to get away from a batted ball on the bases between 2nd and 3rd. I can't remember ever seeing a runner hit by a batted ball between 2nd and 3rd.

7/13-White Sox / Guardians - The Fall of TLR Begins —6:10
He started having good ABs and hitting the ball pretty hard last weekend.

7/13-White Sox / Guardians - The Fall of TLR Begins —6:10
For fuck sake, he's 140 feet away from the ball. It could have easily been avoided.

TA has been pretty dumb on the bases lately.

Fire Tony Chant
IMO it's because sports teams are usually owned by business people who made a ton of money, so were very successful running other buisinesses, and its the only way they know how. But pro sports doesn't work that way, especially for winning. You have to take big gambles, you have to be prepared to lose lots of money at times Profits can't be that high on the priority list,if you really want to be a team that wins all the time. JR is fiscally conservative. That can work in other businesses, but it's not going to bring you titles in MLB.
