9/11 Games
Vasil has good/decent stuff but hardly ToR material…we shall see. He’s has been very effective in his limited role so far.

2025 International signings thread
With the limited resources and scouting budgets already made available by JR...this seems like such a huge risk if you have a big swing and miss. It's certainly gaining a lot of attention. Just the money for the buscone/agent alone is life changing. He seems to be at that age the equivalent of Yordan Alvarez for his age...but how does that project to any premium positions at such an early age? Is it enough validation that the Yankees were already in on him? How much of this is the piggyback effect? The last time the organization won a signing battle this high profile was Luis Robert, Jr.

Shane Smith (White Sox All Star)
I'm assuming you mean Rule5 and not Civale trade/s.

Packers look dominant. Doing all this without Reed and Watson. Kraft looks like first team All Pro TE. Defense basically shutting down WASH.

If they get to 63 wins? Which player...Montgomery or Teel? If Montgomery eventually flops, you can always switch to Braden later on and save money on the stitching. Dumbest jersey news is S.Sanders #6 in the NFL lol.

Pepiot "fatigue" doomed this one for TB, bit still a long ways to go with Burke on the mound.

Resilient White Sox/AL Central Attendance, somehow up 1.8% YoY for first 21 home dates
SD small market for media and somewhere in between medium and small (Albeit wealthier) for population base. Hence losing the Clippers and Chargers... You have the weather and stadium/environment going for them, as well as 4/6 playoff appearances. Cardinals are the biggest drop...were always the best-attended of small to medium markets. Milwaukee has pretty much replaced them as fans in StL have grown disenchanted by perceived penny pinching on payroll. Also note how low Baltimore is coming off two consecutive but terribly disappointing playoff appearances.

Getting tired of the "give the ball to a child" meme
If the equivalent of Sydney Sweeney, Livvy Dunne or Alabama Rush like girls switched places with the skunk haired witch …everyone would be teasing the father for being seduced into giving up the ball. Without the Karen approach and appearance, wouldn’t be hearing nearly so much outcry. It’s pretty cut and dried.

Shane Smith has taken over as story of spring
If Bieber proves he's healthy and at least at 92-93, it's going to be a much bigger number than anyone thinks...especially if he does well in the post season. A lot of teams will hesitate on Michael King and Dylan Cease at the top of that FA pitching class. Cease is too similar to Snell and had a lot of innings/bitches since his TJS. King has been hurt but has the 5th or 6th best starting pitcher's ERA over the last two seasons...at just right under 3.00.

9/9/2025 - Rays @ Sox - Houser contre Gomez, 6:40 pm
They must have a deal to trade him to a contender for the final 17 games or whatever. SD...with Adam out, Philly, NYY, Mets, Seattle, he will get traded based on the "wow factor" behind that single pitch last night that had so much movement bearing in on RH batters. Otherwise is jus takes about zero sense. Would much rather have him than Wilson's misleading numbers. White Sox have 40 lose from ahead games already this year. That's second in all of baseball to the .500ish DBacks (43).

Haha...not willingly after allHouston winning years in Houston. Plus they may be without Garcia now into next season. There's also something to be said for starting your White Sox "All-Star" Shane Smith on OD versus anyone else reasonably within sight.

Rattler... Hurts... Mayfield... Kyler Murray... K.Williams... Mateer? Jackson Howard at Auburn? Michael Hawkins Jr. And then there's Sam Bradford as well. How much of that success is/was the OU system vs. Lincoln Riley vs. sheer raw physical talent/recruiting? 5/32 starting QB's tied to just one school is pretty unusual. Or was it more Riley? If so, what happened? Or just the incredible amount of talent surrounding QB at the skill positions for much of that time?
