What's the modern-day record for fastest GM to get fired? I guess one of those guys like Jared Porter with the Mets.... But I mean someone who actually got started on the job and was fired due to "baseball-related" incompetence?

Bauer hasn't looked all that great in Japan... So basically you're sending what type of marketing message to female fans of the White Sox? It really doesn't matter, because threatening to blow up your entire clubhouse/chemistry when you have just spent the last 2-3 years dealing with precisely this issue on an everyday basis seems to be the definition of insanity.

And where is the scout who signed the anomalous Montgomery?? No longer with the White Sox, of course But interesting he was a pitcher. Justin Wechsler was named the pitching coach in June of 2023. He begins his first season as an assistant coach in 2024. Wechsler is no stranger to Ball State, as he was a pitcher for the Cardinals from 1999-2001. Definitely knows the state of Indiana… Justin Wechsler Position: Pitcher Bats: Right • Throws: Right 6-0, 255lb (183cm, 115kg) Born: April 6, 1980 (Age: 43-166d) in Anderson, IN us Draft: Drafted by the Arizona Diamondbacks in the 4th round of the 2001 MLB June Amateur Draft from Ball State University (Muncie, IN). High School: Pendleton Heights HS (Pendleton, IN) School: Ball State University (Muncie, IN) Full Name: Justin Andrew Wechsler Pronunciation: \WECKS-ler\ View Player Info from the B-R Bullpen

2001/2002/2004 all had numbers in the 30 millions or close. 2001 peaked at 39 million for Game 7, but the rating/share was 23.5/34. Surely the audience has become more fragmented when comparing cable and satellite options versus what was once just 2-3 national television channels in CBS NBC then ABC. It's much more relevant to compare the NBA and MLB based on length of series and the singular marketing phenomenon which are the Super Bowl ads and half time performance. The NBA is less profitable but arguably more popular but MLB wins the revenue battle by $14 vs. $12 billion. NFL at $25 billion nearly doubling both leagues

Rockies have played well recently...well, comparatively.

Sounds like most of the 2000's and early 2010s when we kept drafting football players such as Courtney Hawkins and Keenyn Walker and trying to refine them into baseball players.

Because the value is more as a running back somewhere under Bijan Robinson...

With the White Sox...about as good as any of the 23-24 Bears. Would fit in quite well. Guess we can't overreact on DJ Moore since the QB can't consistently get him the ball. Unless he's on your fantasy team.

Fields is closer to Jalen Milroe or Joe Milton of TN. Secondly, amazing how many QBs have OU/Riley or Bama ties in the NFL right now. Mayfield Murray Hurts Williams (Alas no Rattler.)

Gordon Beckham quality insight.

33/75 837 ops Ahe rate he's going, he might even catch Robert in OPS and he actually wants to play baseball every single day, too. Genuinely seems to enjoy being part of a playoff push and is responding to the opportunity well. Heart and character traits the Sox are less familiar with since they aren't measurable. https://www.mlb.com/gameday/716546/play/69 Exit Velocity 111 mph Distance 446 ft Launch Angle 20 deg

QB Tyson Bagent RB D'Onta Foreman WR Equanimeous St. Brown OL Nate Davis DL Khalid Kareem DB Josh Blackwell Inactive list today

Salvador Perez just had a concussion or concussion-like symptoms as well. Wonderful.

Preseason Vegas odds that Santos Shaw and Banks would all have Sox saves this year?

Safety check on Ron883.

Iowa State. Yikes. Colorado suddenly looking quite mortal without Hunter. They're going to be crushed by Oregon and USC unless they figure out a way to win without him.

That said...Sosa was a huge aspect of the Cubs taking over Chicago for good in the 90's. Especially the 1998 home run race with McGwire.

Amazing how tight that race is with so many twists and turns already...two more weeks to go. Not to mention Marlins without Alcantara and Robertson lost the closer's job too.

By that argument, you're taking a massive risk holding Luis Robert Jr. the next two non competitive seasons...

Mission Accomplished!!!

Trying to snatch defeat from jaws of victory...

Helped to make the team nearly unwatchable if that was the goal...

Shaw appearing in third straight game lol.
