For the IG slueths, Escobar currently follows 994 people and no Sox players as far as I can tell.

Hey man, the White Sox used to have a guy named Eduardo Escobar play for them too, so it's only fair. ?

Late night Boob Bomb on my birthday? Hopefully it's something small like the Escobar for Luis Gonzalez mock that someone (Sox Machine?) threw out recently.

4 weeks from now (minimum) would put him right at the All-star break. Give him 2 weeks in Charlotte, that could have him back in Chicago for that Indians series at the end of July. End of July seems like best case scenario, so even Mid-August seems very likely. If it's any longer than that, there was a setback.

What an absolute bomb, considering it was oppo. You rarely see a no-doubter hit the opposite way like that.

Anyone got the new BA top 100 list for Sox players?

....right.... Yea, so anyway, I hope as many people in this WORLD have access to the vaccine and we can stop deaths and spread of the virus WORLD WIDE. I can't imagine giving a flying fuck about the precious shareholders of Johnson and Johnson over millions of innocent lives across the world. Color me, not giving a fuck about a "political loss of face" during a world wide pandemic when lives can be saved.

Should India, China, and Russia not have access to the vaccine? I don't understand the issue.

At least with this news, no one is benefitting from it. You could argue his Nelson Cruz info was to help his buddy Nelson Cruz get more money. Same for Ozuna. This scoop doesn't make anyone more money. If anything, it hurts the chances of a FA getting signed to fill the hole. But ultimately the Sox will know way more about his actual timeframe than anything that could possibly be speculated in the media.

Just signed up in Indiana today for the J&J vaccine for me and my wife. I'll be fully vaxxed by Cinco De Mayo. Can't wait!

ONE MORE PERSON NEEDED. I usually try not to ask Sox fans, because I hate seeing guys like Moncada and Anderson get taken by the 2nd round ?, but we need 1 more person for our league. Draft is this Sunday at 9:15 on ESPN. Buy-in is $50. It's a 10-team, 2-player Keeper League, but we added 2 teams this season, so anyone joining would have a blank roster, but automatically get 2 of the first 4 draft picks instead.

Holy shit rental car prices have gone through the roof recently. They have doubled in a month. Even our flights went from $130 to $190 in about 2 weeks. I looked back at my trip to AZ in January of 2016 and my rental car was $13 a day. Now this trip to AZ my car is almost $50 a day. Insanity.

One of these risks is $340M on one player. The other is $200M for 3 players. These are not the same types of risk.

It's hilarious to me the amount of people on Twitter who are assessing this from the Tatis side of "I dunno, he is risking potentially selling himself short by $100M or so by taking this deal so early" and not from the inordinately obvious side of the amount of risk the Padres are taking on by giving $300M to an young kid who hasn't even played a full season yet and has already sustained multiple injuries. The risk is HEAVILY on the side of the Padres here, not Tatis, who at minimum now has $340M if his career ended tomorrow.

Yes, because that's exactly what I said. Excellent reading comprehension.

What a joke of a punishment. They don't even lose a pick, they just get the 40th pick instead of the 30th pick? Lol

He turned down an extension offer? Why was he even given an extension offer?

God I hope this is over and he actually goes to the Mets. Never wanted any part of that clown.

I would love to be in a situation to eventually replace my wife's Hyundai Elantra with a Model Y, but with us planning on getting pregnant this summer, I don't really know how much I should be budgeting for a child. But either way, we both have sedans and we already have a dog, so something might have to give because the dog and a car seat in the back seat at the same time may prove difficult.

My first car was a 1995 Honda Civic. I owned it from December 2006 until February 2011; 5 years. Then I was forced to sell that car (which I loved) and got a 2004 Mitsubishi Galant from February 2011 until September 2019; 8 1/2 years. And then I got my dream car, my Tesla, in June of 2019, and I've had that for about 20 months.

Bauer and Mickey Callaway didn't get along huh? What if I were to tell you the Angels found a way to get rid of Mickey Callaway....

I'm talking about the timing of it being curious, less than 2 months after he takes down an entire sports organization and while he's receiving death threats.

And did those allegations come AFTER he whistleblew on the Astros for cheating? Would be curious timing for a rumor like that, eh?

I meant they robbed other teams and fans of Arenado being available in Free Agency.

Fuck the Rockies. They paid 1 year of a 7 year contract extension that the had no intention of ever paying. They robbed baseball of the chance of Arenado on the open market so they could pay $50M for 5 prospects and sell a shit load of jerseys and tickets for 1 more year. This is bad for the sport.
