Better than the Honeybunch. Or perhaps not, depending on who you're married to.

Hasn't found a job yet...a lot thought she would end up in NYC with the Commissioner's office.

A bit like the Trayce Thompson game for LAD early last year.

At one point this year, RH hitters were 1/59 against Cease this year. Has a twin brother named Alec/k. Owns two tournament-caliber frisbee golf courses in FL and GA. Dabbles in acrylic painting. Took up bee-keeping (no relationship to Jason Statham) with his father during Covid in rural Georgia.

"The switch-hitting Grossman has better stats against left-handed pitching. He hit over .300 against lefties last season, posting a .952 OPS in 137 plate appearances. That OPS ranked sixth in the American League against left-handed pitchers (minimum 100 plate appearances vs. lefties)." More likely they dump Jankowski because Carter is way too young and talented to be a platoon guy...granted, the strong side of one. https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/mlb/rangers-reunite-with-robbie-grossman-in-trade-with-white-sox/ar-BB1m2GJc

Didn't he have like a 300ish OPS at Charlotte of all places?

At least he spent the majority of his development time with the DBacks...

Promote Sergio Santos.

Vivek Ranadivé, owner of the (Sacramento) Kings and River Cats, expressed optimism about Sacramento’s potential to secure a permanent MLB team. “I’ve been in touch with the commissioner ... they will be creating a new team,” Ranadivé told reporters during a press interview last month. “They want it to be on the West Coast. They’d love for it to be in California.” By showcasing that Sacramento has the market and can “make the team successful,” he said there’s a chance to get the new franchise. “There’s no guarantee,” he added. “You know, we have to show what we can do, and I have complete confidence that if we set our mind to something, this is an incredible city.” https://www.yahoo.com/news/mlb-stay-sacramento-oakland-called-123000921.html

Jiménez, 27, has struggled to stay on the field his entire career with the White Sox. He's played over 100 games in just two seasons of his six-year career. His career high for games played in a season is 122, a mark he set his rookie season. He's a phenomenal talent and is inarguably the team's best bat when he's on the field. But his injury history is detrimental. And because of his injuries, the White Sox are hesitant to play him in the outfield on defense, making him a one-trick pony. Jiménez's contract is an appealing part of his trade value. He has two more years under club control after this season. Though, he's slated to make $16.5 million per season from those two seasons, a rather high number for his current abilities. Who writes this stuff? https://www.yahoo.com/sports/rumor-white-sox-expected-trade-004323758.html

Thorpe about to fall under a 1.00 ERA. Unreal. He'll be up at AAA soon unless they want him to stay all the way through the Southern League All-Star game...enjoy some accolades/success before moving up to the bandbox. And with Sox pitchers, might be better just to send them directly from BIRM because Charlotte might as well be Colorado.

There's zero reason (or than current injury, but that's a recent development) not to just let Colas play and see what happens... Ortega will garner no trade return and his playing time should be going to ANYONE who could be a legit part of the future.

Hopefully we can dump Maldonado on the Cardinals as a Contreras replacement...but Getz will probably trade Lee instead.

Pretty sad when even a routine play turns into something that needs to be congratulated or encouraged, lol. It is what it is, though.

His time with the Red Sox and Yankees when he (still) had folk lore status...especially Beantown.

Setting up in a specific direction instead of being more "loose/fast-twitchy" at the bag and ready to move quickly to his left or right for errant throws always seems to elude him. It's something quite basic Bryce Harper picked up in a matter of weeks.

Or he needs a much bigger target and more athletic 1B...

"The San Jose Sharks won the draft lottery on Tuesday and earned the right to have the No. 1 pick in the NHL draft for the first time in franchise history. The Sharks finished last in the overall standings and retained their position in the lottery. Now San Jose has the opportunity to select Boston University center Macklin Celebrini, who is ranked first among North American skaters by NHL Central Scouting." Not even sure how much more excited Sox fans would be with this possibility...guess it would depend on the upcoming draft class. With the White Sox luck, it would be 1-1 at the top of the 2024 NBA Draft (as opposed to 2023).

5-5 for the last ten?

Scheduled for Saturday, May 25, the Hall of Fame East-West Classic presented by Boeing and fueled by assistance from Major League Baseball, will feature more than two dozen former big leaguers, with White Sox Assistant GM Josh Barfield, Ken Griffey Jr. and Ozzie Smith among the Hall of Famers who will serve as the East and West teams’ managers and coaches.

The Tigers were considering designating Torkelson to AAA and look at his 2023 numbers compared to Vaughn's... Also, Ramos has the one Sox .300 average but still a sub 600 OPS. Give him 2-3 more weeks to get it under .500, I guess.

JR wants to extract his full money's worth of suffering...just like Grifol. Should sue Hahn lol.

It's beyond that. This isn't a tweak of his stuff. It's just gone.
