Mike Shirley resigns
there won't be any "glory" without a new stadium in place by April, 2033 the only alternative would be the ASG at the Field of Dreams that could be tied into White Sox and 1933 ASG history...but hard to avoid 1919/Joe Jackson references, though can't really play it at Soldier Field without some major modifications

“The 78” + "The Railyard" = the future of the Sox and Fire
Well, here's one positive about PE/billionaires/corporations: "As the Seattle's mayor chases her own agenda, CEOs from corporate heavyweights like Microsoft, Starbucks, Costco, Zillow and Nordstrom are demanding a “credible public-safety plan” that tackles deadly violence, open-air drug markets, and lagging police response times." nypost.com

That missed FG from 45 still would have been enough but you start gaming out how to get to the end rather than putting foot on the gas...it just snowballs, avalanche going against you

Did Kyler Murray get hurt or pulled due to ineffectiveness? Also crazy Loveland had zero FP when they put up 59...two targets

2026 MLB Catch All (Non Sox, Non AL Central)
Toronto making the postseason seemed pretty inconceivable two months ago...even dumped Varsho SD will be just 1 1/2 GB of the Cubs if their 5-0 lead holds up... Phillies also +16 tied for 4/5 WC slots 6 seed would likely open up at Atlanta unless LAD tank DBacks a full four games behind the Cubs

White Sox at St. Louis 9/13 Sandlin vs McGreevy
Doyle was 2/5 against McGreevy previously, but another offseason fixer upper if they even go to arbitration with him.

Mike Shirley resigns
All I know is he was very close to former Sox scout John Tumminia...who I'm pretty sure is related to Chaim Bloom or Cherington through his daughter's marriage. Talked to him a number of times about his international youth baseball teaching/life skills camps in the Americas and Africa.

Isn't pro/advance scouting already less than five??? Didn't we just have a graphic recently...that the Braves somehow had zero, but it was actually at least 1.

It's also interesting if he ever wore that hat while representing the Sox outside of their own facilities...like the Area Code Games, and whether anyone ever spoke to him about it and how it made others feel. We can talk about free speech until blue in the face, but not when it collides with a pro sports franchise worth billions and its organizational perception...there are limits to what anyone under the owner's box can get away with, especially since 2015, but also Me Too/Epstein. Heck limits on billionaires now too. That's just the cold hard reality. It's also why the owners would prefer AI and data centers to replace human scouting as much as possible without being sanctioned by MLB NYC HQ. I guess even going into a Hooters Restaurant would get you in trouble with someone these days...at one point, they even had an airline. Interestingly enough, Vietnam has an airline where flight attendants wear bikini tops, run by a female CEO. https://vietnamstar.net/vietnams-bikini-airline-named-worlds-best-ultra-saver-airline-2025/ Guess it's just select promotional flights and not on a daily basis.

2026 MLB Catch All (Non Sox, Non AL Central)
Seemingly in speaking about his client De La Cruz, this is what Boras said> "We don't care what dinner time is. When you're the steak, you sit there and wait for what? You wait for what the market brings. And you listen." There are two ways to read that. On the one hand, Boras implies that De La Cruz won't rush into a deal and will listen to the cases made to him from every team down the road. Maybe that leaves the door open to an eventual decision to stay in Cincinnati. But on the other hand, Boras is saying De La Cruz won't be signing an extension before his deal is up in Cincy. That would be the opposite of waiting for the market, and he evidently feels that De La Cruz deserves to get to free agency and bring out some big contract offers from around the league. yahoo sports
