It was at least two different series over multiple years, right?

Soriano was a lousy signing too.

It's like letting James Ferentz pick your recruiting targets on offense... Running a system fifteen years behind the rest of the country and about to be blown out of the water for a decade.

Without a strong cheering interest...just hoping for another 7 game series. Pretty shocked Nola collapsed at home with how well he's been going in the postseason. Big decision to pull Kelly when he had a run of consecutive batters retired going there.

Have to favor Javier in that particular matchup...need an ultra quick hook for Max, unless he can rise to the occasion. 2023 Postseason G W-L ERA IP SO WHIP 2 2-0 1.69 10.2 12 0.94

Who are the starters tmrw? TBD on mlb site obviously. Haven't been following so closely this year.

Garcia's revenge...

Being the worst team in baseball is more damaging than the value of gaining pick 11 vs. 15-17.

Luis Robert wasn't a finished product, but he would have been tough to mess up for nearly any organization.

Series back on in the NL...

No fucking way I'm ever going to cheer for the Astros...

Rangers cursed in the postseason. Shouldn't have allowed Dak Prescott to throw out the first pitch.

Gary Pettis, one of the few coaches ever pushed out by the White Sox, but seems to be doing fine just now with Houston.

How would signing Abreu to that particular contract and either trading Vaughn for scraps or playing him out of position have improved the 2023-25 Sox? It was never about Benintendi versus Abreu. At any rate...Adolis Garcia just turned this series upside down again.

Is TexSox cheering for the Rangers or Astros? He's been teasing an allegiance change for a couple of years now...

If the Sox got him he would be back to hitting in the 160s.

Looks like Abreu won it. Dunning wilted.

Turns out that starting both Scherzer and Heaney were pretty critical mistakes because they could have put the series away...and now they're going to be in a dogfight from here on out. Rangers' offense has been so unpredictable in the second half of the season...just never know what you're going to get, but obviously the potential to explode at any time.

Wasn't it stated that they would be FA signings? Bieber's best days are behind him and Glasnow is so injury prone that both feel like classic "buy higher then recede" and hamstring the payroll Sox moves...not far off from the impact of Keuchel and Lynn in the Sox collapse.

https://www.yahoo.com/sports/kim-ng-first-female-general-180733038.html Looks like likeliest eventuality for Ng is a return to the Commissioner's Office...unless more jobs were to suddenly come open.

Any relationship with the famous fireballing lhp Aroldis Chapman?

It's all but a done deal, and Trevor May isn't holding back his feelings. https://sports.yahoo.com/trevor-may-retires-from-as-with-message-for-dork-owner-john-fisher-sell-the-team-dude-044452684.html

Baseball is STILL a good 'ol boys club, after all. The Marlins (including their owner) still don't quite 100% believe a female is capable of leading the organization...or can only get the team from Point A to Point B, for example. For the finishing touches, it requires a man's experiences in the industry. That's the prevailing wisdom.

And then Getz's promise to Grifol to keep him around for another year...at the very least, to start the season.
