Yes. We knew he wasn't going to make the team. Who cares if he gets blasted? Now Burdi, different story, but it is March 8th.

Katz will fix him.

Just got an email from the White Sox. They will have pods of tickets available per homestand. Season ticketholders have priority based on tenure and type of package. He said package. They said capacity will be determined homestand by homestand. Masks will be required.

He needs to let Eloy catch the ball. I love that he is aggressive and covers a lot of ground, but this happened a couple of times last year, and they are going to make a routine fly to LF a disaster with the ball flying out of his glove some day, and one or both guys getting hurt.

I get Robert covers a lot of ground and is the better fielder, but with a routine flyball to LF, just let Eloy catch it before they both get hurt.

1 minute 20 second top of the first. Buehrle is jealous.

A ticket is one thing, matching up a vaccine card with an ID is another.They can't just scan the code.

If you had to show proof you were vaccinated, it would take hours to get in. And there is no way the city or county or state is going to leave it up to minimum wage employees to determine if your info is correct. The capacity will be determined by the number of people vaccinated and the rate of infection.

It is going to be interesting how they spread everyone out. They are going to have to make some financial adjustments to some of the people in your situation. Someone is getting screwed.

Whatever happened to a bullpen is a crapshoot? I guess if you have a good one, that is thrown away.

It's 8,122 per game. Probably will start out season ticketholder only for a while. Even a few season ticketholders will be shutout at least a little bit. As a long time season ticketholder, I can say I have been to a lot of games there were nowhere near 8,122 in attendance.

He shit his pants thinking the starter could not give up a run. Then he wound up screwed later on. He was bent over with his hands on his knees the entire series. Seems like a good guy, but clearly not a MLB playoff manager.

Unless someone like Madrigal performs very poorly or someone gets hurt, Leuri isn't going to get much of a shot except for pinch running and maybe going in occasionally to LF late in a game.

What will be interesting to me about the Cubs is their starting rotation. It will probably be by far the softest tossing in baseball. Can that still work? Will it be a huge disadvantage or perhaps an advantage because of uniqueness.

Odorizzi to Houston.

I don’t think this survey is very scientific. One factor is it’s easier to get a beer at a Sox game with smaller crowds, and lines, and a lot more access to vendors. If they were drawing 35k a night, it would be a little tougher to get a lot of beers.

Ruiz has no options left. I can’t believe the Sox were so scared of losing him, they wouldn’t add another real pitcher who would have needed a spot on the 40.

He was a bad signing because when you say you are going to spend money, you almost have to, and the Bulls usually lose the musical chairs game with the other teams that have room for max contracts, and all that usually gets you is Boozer or Eddie Robinson or Ron Mercer. 2 of them who JR paid to go home.

Yes but it was well known he wasn’t the pick of the litter. When it comes to NBA free agency the Bulls almost always get to choice C or worse. Pau Gasol was a pretty good one. But he played cheap, and was past his prime. Boozer was one of the most empty 20/10 performers in league history. No D at all. But he did have that spray on hair line. I also think his teammates liked him. But he wasn’t a guy that would win you games.

Boozer was a sign and trade, and he pretty much sucked.

The teams the Sox have been fielding will do that to you.

Remember when everyone was saying JR's heirs wanted no part of the team when he was no longer around, and I told you it was the exact opposite? I had a really good source.

They would be in a spring training type of thing. So it still could be done. He would just stay in Glendale.

Dick Pic Mick is one of the greatest nicknames of all time.

I would imagine it would be when they get the go ahead for some decent capacity. I would think they have more than enough in season tickets or at least extremely close right now to fill a 25 % capacity.
