projected 2027 top org prospects "White Sox: Braden Montgomery, OF (MLB No. 55) A switch-hitter with prodigious power and arm strength, Montgomery bashed 62 homers in three college seasons at Stanford and Texas A&M before breaking his right ankle on a bad slide during the NCAA Super Regionals last June. Drafted 12th overall by the Red Sox, he'll make his pro debut with the White Sox after they acquired him in the Garrett Crochet trade at the Winter Meetings in December." https://www.mlb.com/news/projecting-each-mlb-team-s-top-prospect-in-2027?t=mlb-pipeline-coverage

8:13 a.m. ET: The Golden State Warriors might not be done dealing, Brian Windhorst reports on "Get Up." Windhorst said the Warriors have multiple expiring contracts to deal, and could be looking for a big man who can shoot, like the Chicago Bulls' Nikola Vucevic. espn.com

Can we please stay away from SEC SS's? Beckham Gonzalez...

And, on the plus side, they won't have been mathematically eliminated before June...

Guerrero Jr. already turned down $340 million and won't negotiate against after Feb.18th.

Which one is missing then? I just counted 28 for March April May. It's not the Cubs. Never mind it's 27. But not very many compelling opponents. Best case they pick up some Red Sox and Brewers' fans to outnumber Sox fans for those home series.

So all the games but Opening Day?

Aug 23, 2024 · Got my season ticket renewal this week, have a full season outfield ticket plan, and our 2025 cost is going up by 15%. Some are seeing up to 40% increases. Otoh, you can get a full season pass for $249 in an un desirable seating area.

With the way Toyota and Nissan both are going...

$125/28 games=$4.46 per ticket...minor league prices. It's the parking that will get you haha. And why would anyone want a Charles Comiskey Bobblehead? To deflect attention from JR...?

Enjoy the greatness of Barkley vs. the Chiefs' defense...there's that at least.

NL Central is going to be a dogfight this year...not because of Pham, but all five teams could make cases. Pirates just passed $90 million in 2025 payroll.

https://sports.yahoo.com/grading-the-lakers-second-stunning-trade-could-mark-williams-be-the-missing-piece-132709173.html Guess I haven't been watching enough Charlotte games...Duke and Kentucky always have these guys who are stars but only play 20-25 mins but are hardly noticed until the NBA because they are frequently overshadowed. A+ grade for Lakers

If there's any certainty in the future, it's that a massive contract needs to go to a true five tool star player with plus defensive skills and not a 2ish fWAR 1B in his thirties. Haven't we learned from the likes of Dunn LaRoche M.Cabrera Alonso and Encarnacion??? The contract that the Astros gave to Abreu? The White Sox have sunk more money into DH and 1B with less oositivet results than any team baseball the last 10-15 years. If we really think signing Alonso's the answer...it would have been far more logical to put Burger at 1B. 28 years old, far cheaper, and Alonso only beat him 1.8 to 1.4 from an fWAR perspective.

Well, it would be nice to have an example to the contrary where an underalded prospect like Wikelman Gonzalez goes 2003 Loaiza.

Letterman/Benetti meeting...

"Alonso also reportedly had a three-year, $71 million deal from the Mets on the table but took the shorter one to bet on himself."

In Will We Trust...but yeah, the Tokyo Series ticket prices are actually more interesting. Should have sent Sox Rockies Marlins instead to suppress prices.

"L.A. agreed to send rookie Dalton Knecht, Cam Reddish, a 2031 unprotected first-round pick and a 2030 pick swap to the Hornets for Williams, sources told Charania." That's a lot to give up for Mark Williams...

Shouldn't I be cheering for the Cubs? To be honest...we were there in 2023 at Tokyo Dome and while it's an interesting cultural experience, it's not a great way to watch a baseball game. In general, unless it's Minnesota in 1987/91 WS or Skydome back then...not a great atmosphere. That said, the Japanese people who are so crazy about baseball will be in heaven, though.

Just talked to my cousin in Dallas and he's given up on Cowboys and Mavs...can you get Kyrie Irving to play defense?

More like The End by the Doors lol.
