Dick Allen

He sounds like Kermit the Frog.

If KW read Schwarbers goodbye tweet to Cubs fans, he may offer Kyle more than his arb number. In it he said he loved to grind with his teammates. He’s a grinder.

The other thing with people freaking out McCann won’t be there for Giolito, there is a simple solution. Have Giolito call the game and have him give Grandal the signs. Problem solved.

Exactly. It’s not worth gambling an injury or a bad year. Make your money, you earned it the last 2 seasons, the White Sox need to move on and get a back up for Grandal. Maybe it’s Collins, maybe it’s someone else.

I think other than not using him vs, Berrios I believe, I think he is the one McCann kills and Ricky had him riding pine a couple of times, he used him masterfully. This is a guy a lot of Soxtalk were irate the Sox signed in the first place thinking he was no Kevan Smith. And I agree, I think over exposure may hurt his numbers a bit. But he has earned a shot at a regular job. Hope for him it goes well he seems like a good guy.

Exactly. It’s not worth gambling an injury or a bad year. Make your money, you earned it the last 2 seasons, the White Sox need to move on and get a back up for Grandal. Maybe it’s Collins, maybe it’s someone else. if I am Hahn, I am asking my scouts who is the best framer, thrower and game caller of the back up type free agents, and that combo is who I am going after. Framer and thrower might be more important as I think LaRussa likes to call pitches unless they have a HOFer baseball person, someone who is legit, like Fisk, behind the plate.

I read where 10% of places generate 80% of cases. They are what we all know. Restaurants, bars, gyms, places of worship. All fit your description.

I was like everyone else, stunned when they dumped Coop. But it was time. You look at Lopez, he's not getting better. I think they were afraid of the same thing happening to Cease, and perhaps Kopech. Of course there were injuries, but Rodon didn't really develop. Giolito got better, but went to outside help, ironically, Coop's replacement. They all said the right things, but it was pretty obivous, a change was needed.

Even if the Sox matched it, why would McCann stay when he can be the man? I have a feeling, if the Sox really want him back at some point, they will be able to get the Mets to trade him and send along some money in a couple of years when Grandal is done.

But Trump mentioned their containment. Of course the question could be what could they possibly have done to keep it from going worldwide. The other issue is Trump now blames China for his lack of action. He was soft because he was afraid his trade deal would fall apart for one thing, and who knows what else. He is Mr. Projection and has mentioned many times how Biden is in China's pocket. So I suspect Trump must be.

That's one issue. These people are nuts. This is a cult. Millions need to be de-programmed. They have lost all sense of reality;

FL Republican lawyer telling a group of republicans to move to Georgia for a couple of months and register to vote. He was pressed on this by the enemy of the people, the press. He then said he was joking. The fake news reporter checked. The day after he gave this talk. He registered to vote in Georgia.

I think the new regime can only help. Krause was Krause, although the Bulls always got players to play with MJ to get rings. Gar was a known liar. There is no reason to spend winters in Chicago if you aren't treated like a king or your path to the finals has obstructions. You look at the NBA, if you are in a cold weather city, unless you drafted a no brainer, you're pretty screwed. Especially now when the great ones have no problem moving on. Thibs had a decent rep, but Fred wasn't going to wow players and Boylen was a joke. I think they are on the right path. Hopefully someday soon, guys like AD will want to play for the Bulls while he's in his prime, not just to grab money like D Wade.

The Roger Stone is saying some ships from North Korea docked in Maine and unloaded shipfulls of ballots for Biden. I really think these people want to test the tipping point. They want to see how far out they go until the lightbulb finally goes on in their cult members' heads that they are being fed a load of shit. Telling them their money is going into Trumps pocket doesn't matter. They think democrats run child sex rings from pizza joints and eat abortions. There may be no outer limit.

The US death toll yesterday was higher than Japan's total for the entire pandemic. I give Trump an A.

This is classic.

China and President Xi have also been doing a great job. Very transparent. Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump · Jan 24 China has been working very hard to contain the Coronavirus. The United States greatly appreciates their efforts and transparency. It will all work out well. In particular, on behalf of the American People, I want to thank President Xi!

If you remember when the task force meetings first started, the number of deaths was going to be 60,000. I remember Trump saying it probably would be less maybe 50,000. He's doing such a great job, he's getting calls from all over the world. The enemy of the people, truth tellers,, be damned.

Breaking records. No one thought it could be done. People are dying at rates no one ever thought possible. Trump should be proud. I thought Don Jr. told everyone to go to his instagram page, (it's probably another grift, he probably gets paid for the hits) where he has information no one is dying anymore. Probably just fake news.

What about Hector Noesi? Coop had big plans for him.

No surprise. It was time for Rodon. They don't have time to mess around anymore.

Engel should be used vs LHP and as a defensive replacement. If they pick his spots, he has a better chance to succeed.

He can throw. You could put him in RF and give Luis Robert some track shoes.

I think there used to be a rule where if you didn't offer arb and didn't sign the player before the arb deadline, you couldn't negotiate with him until May.

In a lawsuit challenging election results in WI, the brilliant ⁦@SidneyPowell1⁩ demands “48 hours of security camera recording of all rooms used in the voting process at the TCF Center for Nov 3, 2020 and Nov 4, 2020.” The TCF Center is in Detroit. Oops, wrong state. She really should be sanctioned at least, and perhaps have her law license revoked.
