Or trade 🤔

😆

At least we’re only 5 weeks from baseball games. Can’t come soon enough.

Can I have a contract too? Pretty please? 🍒

All the Vargas’s!!!

Bad FIP… high walks… low Ks… ERA+ in rookie year was good back a couple years… Seems like a project.

Yea man - I remember the Advanced Media sale to Disney. Insane how much money is in baseball now compared to when we were growing up… You even more so… you likely have distant memories of when this country actually promised hope.

Ah good to be corrected, I thought we were not a revenue sharing team and that is why we’re not eligible for competitive balance picks.

They’re also an easy target… they’ve earned it.

For shits and giggles I evaluated the biggest trades from 2014 to 2020 using WAR as a comparison between established player value and eventual prospect player value. The team trading for the established player got more value 6 times. The team trading for prospects got more value 5 times.

The fact that we’re not listed as a revenue sharing team should speak volumes.

Insane

So sad… so true. Only one place to go from here? Right?? 😆

He didn’t want to sign with the other teams… so actually, they couldn’t have. 😆

Alrighty… which of you got this badass gift?

Alrighty then folks… we have entered a new level of offseason pain. To help pass the time, I propose a community task. Using AI, illustrate scenes from the upcoming 2025 season. Think of yourself as the Stan Lee of White Sox lore with the ability to foresee the future.

Oakland.

https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2024/12/largest-contract-in-franchise-history-for-each-mlb-team-2.html Most expensive contract from each team in the league. No surprise, only one team in the entire league has a number lower than us. Care to guess who?

I am so bored without baseball.

I tried… everything sold out already.

I tend to agree.

Cotton Candy grapes are worth trying.

Here’s the case for Colson breaking with the team, specific only to his offensive performance: - AA (Birmingham Barons): 27.9% - AAA (Charlotte Knights): 23.3% - AFL (Glendale Desert Dogs): 15.8% We know our staff now is focused in large part of cutting down strikeouts. If it is true that he was affected by some off the field issues, they may not be giving much weight to his AAA numbers… His AFL performance could be seen as him integrating those issues while checking some of our prerequisite boxes. With a strong spring training, they could have further confirmation and pull the trigger.
