Illinois gets the #3 overall seed and potentially avoids Gonzaga until the national championship. Nice win vs. Ohio State in the B1G tournament, even though Ayo and Kofi looked really bad in the last 10 minutes of the 2nd half.

Robert had no issues hitting mistake breaking pitches. It was the high fastballs and sliders way out of the zone that he had issues with.

I'm not sure I understand this signing. Cain is playing this year right?

Am I dreaming? The Illini are up 28 on Michigan without Ayo. On the road too!

Yup, just had to wait one more month and I bet nobody would have complained about opening up. Now I gotta deal with people not wearing masks cause the governor said so. ?

Bad call, but even dumber play.

If we can't sign Cruz for more than $13 million there's no way we're going after Ozuna.

They can always franchise tag Robinson if they get someone like Wentz. But then like you said, they can't add anything on the o-line to protect him.

I'm sure if the Sox had a guaranteed spot for him with an MLB deal, he would have came here. He's from the Chicago suburbs. One of my friends in college actually caught for him at Minooka.

He did say he wanted one year deals. This is almost that.

It took a while, but Bauer got pretty much everything he wanted.

They need a better offensive line before they bring in a QB who's only had success when he had an elite o-line blocking for him.

lol absolutely. I think Wentz is probably fixable, but I don't think he'll ever be the QB he was in 2017 pre-ACL injury. However, if I'm giving up at least a first round draft pick and picking up at least $60 million in guaranteed money, I better be getting a decent QB in return. Right now Wentz is not that.

The only thing he was accurate on was White Sox related stuff. And that's probably because he's KW/JR's mouthpiece.

lol @ Bob

If Wentz costs 1 first rounder and Carr takes 2, I'd take Carr just about every time.

I had Wentz in fantasy in 2019. He was consistently mediocre.

Is this the good news Hector was talking about?

Archer got $6.5 million. I can see why the Sox ended up with Rodon.

Rodon should just be a reliever at this point. He had great velocity in the times he did come out of the bullpen. He just couldn't throw anything for strikes. His issue has more or less been staying healthy and being a reliever will help alleviate that issue quite a bit.

This so much. We have Engel to play vs. lefties. It was a perfect situation for someone like Joc, but we instead got an older guy who helped blow up the clubhouse 5 years ago.

Turns out the offer was non-existent.

I feel like if you're Minny, you can't afford to lose Cruz to your biggest division rival. If that means going 2 years, you have to do it. In the end, I think Cruz will get his 2 years with the Twins, because I doubt the Sox will give him 2 years.

Kind of like that pitch Ruiz threw to Jose Ramirez in Cleveland.

He just had a hole in his swing. He could never catch up with high heat in and never pulled inside pitches well. Once pitchers found that out half way through his rookie season, he was screwed. Like you said, he tried to adjust and tinker, but it never worked.
