Sox are getting 6 on MLB Pipeline list
You clearly aren't a huge prospects fan...and try to post a live list on a mobile phone while it's still being announced on MLB Network. The whole thing will be up at mlb.com in 22 minutes anyway.

Off-Season Pass the Time Catch-All
"The young collector who pulled the Paul Skenes 1-of-1 Rookie Debut Patch Autograph card has decided to sell the card at auction -- and it will help out a good cause. The Skenes card will be sold at the Fanatics Collect March Premier auction. All of Fanatics Collect's proceeds from the Skenes card will be donated directly to Los Angeles fire relief funds." https://www.mlb.com/news/paul-skenes-rookie-debut-patch-card-auctioned-for-charity

NC State?

Getz: "We are... building from the ground, up"
FV doesn't necessarily correspond exactly with fWAR...catchers usually don't amass massive numbers since many only get 100 games.

Getz: "We are... building from the ground, up"
Well, when we don't have any position prospects that project at 2 fWAR or higher right now...maybe we do need 3-5 potential guys at every position like we currently have for 3B and 2B. There's depth...and then there's quality depth, so that remains to be seen with a very fluid in field situation. At any rate, we shall see what they end up doing with Quero. Unfortunately the White Sox usually work from the "outside in"... rather than taking SS and CFers and allocating them across the diamond to the corners. We take 1B DH 3B (Burger/Ramos)...and try to put them in the outfield (or at 2B), like Vaughn/Sheets as well. And now trying to make a SS in Meidroth out of a 2B/3B.

Rubenstein of O's pushes for salary cap
The average MLB fan age has trended downward to 43. Attendance/revenue/ratings (hello Yankees Dodgers) are up across the board. Meanwhile NBA and men's college BB trending in the opposite direction...down 12-28% across various platforms.

Cubs showing "significant interest" in Alex Bregman...

Getz: "We are... building from the ground, up"
Well at least we have cornered the market on LHSP and catching...so there's that. Not sure how Quero fits now/exactly. He might be good enough to DH or play first...for the Sox. Just not sure about a legit playoff contender. Maybe he's worth more to another organization seeking a catcher. With Teel now being ahead of Salas at Pipeline...he definitely won't be the one traded as Getz is getting a lot on him and Braden being meaningful contributors.

Colavito, too...

Getz: "We are... building from the ground, up"
You realize he has been one of the most loyal season ticket holders and game attendees around until recently???...this is not the "dunking on" you think it is, when a lot of die hards in their 40s 50s and 60 and their children have given up entirely on this franchise. It's just sad it has come to this, actually.

Soxfest back for 2025
"Getz said, lauding the effort of selling the White Sox as a happy landing spot for veterans seeking bounce-back years. “Because Will (Venable) demonstrates it, others do in the organization: We’re very honest, honest about where we currently are and where we want to go. We might find something we feel we can improve.” None of this honesty was present last year. Guess that was Grifol's fault now, or Dayton Moore on overselling his positive attributes to the Sox...

Watch as he emerges as the closer in SD after they dump Suarez on the market....

Lots of talk about an Ms starter for Mayo...Woo the most prominently mentioned.

Which White Sox hitter (after Robert) will be MLB Top 15 fWAR?
Robert is too easy... The more interesting question is who...if anyone...should be ranked 2nd?

Roki Sasaki Free Agency - Dodgers vs Blue Jays for Roki's heart
Would have been an interesting dilemma with Iguchi and Takatsu involved...Japanese culture is so much about face and respect. But RedSox have had guys like Dice K Yoshida + relievers...Mets with Senga. No interview. Yankees Hideki Matsui Chien Ming Wang and Tanaka. Really seemed heavily influenced by what former Blue Jay Kikuchi said about Toronto...but no really big FA has committed to Toronto as of yet.
