2024 MLB News not AL Central related

What can we dream on for Fedde?
Seems you have come to symbolize the Getz Regime around here...even moreso than Kelenic. It could be worse...getting swept at home by the Rockies in front of 35,000 fans per game.

5/15 Games
Ummm...the moment he becomes an everyday MLB player and not a utility guy, then you can start crowing. But for now he is Marcus Semien and Tatis rolled into one.

1b of the future
Wolkow if he doesn't stick in the OF.

Here we go again...Baltimore stans will descend to say how he's not available to the Sox, lol.

Story on Sox trade possibilities...
This offseason was the time to strike...now that he's finally SEEMED to figure things out, the Angels have pretty much zero incentive to move him at this point in time with where their organization stands.

White Sox acquire Corey Julks from HOU for RHP Luis Rodriguez, option to AAA, recall Dom Fletcher, Ortega DFA'd
That's most trades under the KW 2000-2012 model...even then, he had lots of solid trades like Carlos Quentin/Carter and picked up so many under the radar guys like Thornton, Marte, Jenks, Sergio Santos, de Aza, etc.

Under what scenario would you consider offering Crochet and/or Kopech extensions?
"The team’s two biggest trade chips might be outfielder Luis Robert (owed $12.5 million in 2024 and 2025, with $20 million club options in 2026 and 2027) and flamethrower Michael Kopech ($3 million this year with one year of arbitration-eligibility remaining)." mlb.com Mark Feisand

Re-bump.

We have a troubling trend of adding guys who will age into their 30s before those younger 20ish counterparts can even be dreamed on like Mena or this guy. We already KNOW they are certainly not going to be members of the next White Sox playoff team...so what's the point beyond repairing this year's major league record on the fringes?

Has a Top 30 number near his name of some sort...well, he can't be any worse than Ortega and has more pop I guess.

No way JR will eat that contract before Year 4.

Does this mean the end of Sheets in the OF? Probably not...

Still pretty unproven quantity at this point. Wouldn't the Orioles' fans go nuts if they started him as part of their playoff rotation (after Flaherty fiasco last year)...unless there were numerous injuries across that unit? Still needs at least 4-6 more weeks of results before this looks like a realistic scenario. Because then you're also going to have to push more guys like Thorpe or Iriarte up since Nastrini/Cannon both don't look ready yet.

Lol. Burger was way too young compared to some of these guys. Apparently...the goal is for them to gel together and hit the ground running when they are all in Years 30-32. It's ridiculous Ortega even got so much play in the first place. One thing Burger at least had last year was elite EV/bat speed compared to the majority of his teammates.

Sox looking at building in South Loop
The Jacksonville Jaguars' "Stadium of the Future" is a go, as the franchise and city came to an agreement on a $1.4 billion project on Tuesday. The proposal will see each side contribute $625 million to the project and Jacksonville would chip in another $150 million to get EverBank Stadium ready for construction beginning in 2026. The team will also not include any new taxes to pay for the rebuild. Now that the plan was presented to a city council on Tuesday, members are slated to vote on it in June with a majority of 19 members needed to pass. Then, it would advance to the NFL owners meeting in October where they'd need 24 of 32 votes to reach final approval. With construction set to begin after the 2025 season, the Jaguars would play in front of a reduced capacity crowd in 2026 and then host home games in either Gainesville or Orlando in 2027. The updated look of EverBank Stadium was revealed last summer, representing the next step in the team's efforts to transform downtown Jacksonville. The Jaguars plan to make the stadium four times as wide as the current one with interactive social areas and food local to the city. The stadium will include state of the art technology and a shade canopy to reduce heat retention by 70%. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/jaguars-city-of-jacksonville-agree-on-1-4-billion-stadium-of-the-future/

Jake Burger
KW lol? From the Marlins' perspective, they made the playoffs because of Burger and Josh Bell. Let's wait and see if Eder provides anything close to that as a building block...
