Friend who works for an NBA team in scouting. Cubs’ fans never tire of poking fun at Sox attendance…guess that helps them get over the Brewers’ series.

Try looking at Conforto or Santander for $$$ spent per fWAR. Or Benintendi’s entire Sox career so far.

And then? They’re still in last place without breakouts from H.Smith and/or Schultz. And you sure have a lot of faith in a pitching coach who hasn’t done anything yet with the Sox. Civale was 22% below league average, Gomez 13%, Wilson 37%. The biggest successes, Fedde and Houser…were turned into players highly unlikely to contribute to the next Sox playoff team. Shopping at the Dollar Store consistently just leads to more extended poverty.

Plus they have the Abbott tariff money on incoming NYers lol...

Edgecomb was oddly quiet as well. Thought they blew it when Vuc missed the tap in and Buzelis and Giddey had some empty possessions but Philly kept missing. Great environment down the stretch run.

But how about those Bulls/Bears/Darryn Peterson at KU?

Must have fallen in love with city/fans and wanted another run, and not to relocate family again. Gausman Yesavage Bieber Bassitt/Berrios Lauer...Scherzer probably gone?

Why are an ice cold Embiid and then Quentin Grimes taking those key shots? 26 point turn around. 75 first half 36 second for Philly. Just win baby!!! (for Greg). Giddey for MVP lol.

With Breece Hall, there was an offer on the table for a fourth-round pick for Breece Hall," Hughes said. "I was told it was from the Kansas City Chiefs that were willing to trade for Breece Hall. The Jets were steadfast in wanting a third." Chiefs going to have to get by with K.Hunt and Br.Smith.

Wat the hell are the 76ers doing?

Bulls a lot of fun to watch now... Giddey w/ a triple double.

Read another way. We're cash poor right now...and are still using the Covid year losses to operate like the Bill Veeck White Sox. The $50-55 million lost in broadcasting revenues are just killing the Sox, (Twins and Guardians too) right now. Along with interest payments on accrued debt. The only question is how long to off load Robert and how much will they eat in money or prospects to dump Benintendi. At least M.Perez is saving them $10 million...

https://www.yahoo.com/sports/article/3-moves-dodgers-must-winning-145519617.html Meanwhile LAD (at least one writer) wants Tucker, Edwin Diaz OR Suarez AND Murakami. That would pretty much make a long work stoppage unavoidable with the interests of 12 bigger market owners clearly pitted against the remaining 18. (The one and only time I have agreed with WestEddy, paying Kyle Tucker $400-425 million is insane, especially when you have minor league outfield prospects galore.)

Cubs lol? I can understand how the majority of baseball would not want to pay that full freight for 5-6 innings per start and the possibility of another major injury. Michael King 3/$75 million has a lot less wear and tear due to his years as a reliever in NY. He's the "bargain."

Cheryl Hines?

That and Magic's point forward spot demonstrating that poditional versatility would be required in the NBA of the future...

And one of the first examples of a MLB team getting outbid by the SEC for their pitching coach... https://www.mlb.com/news/wes-johnson-leaving-twins-for-lsu

The Marlins are hiring Chris Hess to replace Derek Shomon -- who is reportedly being named the White Sox hitting coach -- as the club’s assistant hitting coach, sources told MLB.com on Tuesday. Shomon was an Assistant Hitting coach with the Minnesota Twins in 2023 and 2024.

He had so much freedom he felt the confidence to stage a coup against a SVP who won only the third Sox WS and a highly paid GM with a Northwestern-Kellogg/Harvard Law background who'd won MLB Executive of the Year in 2019. Where did all that confidence come from?

Can he bring Kyle Stowers or Ramirez with him?

Don’t put it past them…if Perez doesn’t need their $10 million to make him their third biggest contract until Robert is traded. Ofc his mom or family already bad mouthed the Sox on social media. There’s always Clevinger, lol.

Wacha and Lugo and Singer were all very solid in 2023 as well. Ofc that requires spending REAL money on FA pitching. It’s also why KC is ranked around #10-14 going into next season.
