Chicago White Sox

Yup, has averaged about 32 WAR/season since 2018.

Behind who? Rays, Twins, & A’s?

Role models? They legit fucking cheated. Why should they be celebrated?

This is almost certainly false and no idea why you think this to be true.

But at the same time those guys are relatively cheap for the next three years and with limited holes, signing an impact reliever makes all the sense in the world to me.

Reinsdorf definitely hoping for some pivots!

That’s always the big giveaway unless the source is somebody in the player’s camp. The problem is a guy like Al’s Beef has done this with multiple players so it’s very clear he’s at minimum slinging some shit against the wall even if hearing some stuff second hand.

I don’t understand how so many people spell “Vaughn” wrong.

Wasn’t Robertson almost traded to the Nats for Luzardo?

Between him and the Sox or his market in general?

If they don’t add another decent starter, then they aren’t serious about competing next year. A proven back-end reliever would also be nice.

Definitely a strong possibility

Spiders is the right choice, but this is Cleveland so expect something lame like the “Rocks”.

Truer words have never been spoken. I don’t even watch the games anymore because no good can come from winning at this point. We need to clear house and tank for draft position, but a few meaningless wins are all but a certainty with this fucking franchise.

I think it’s pretty clear the Sox are being cautious with payroll this year due to COVID. I think next offseason will be more telling if Jerry is actually going to spend or be the same old cheap fuck he’s always been.

Look at the chart I just posted.

Pretty good correlation there.

Just because it isn’t the primary revenue source doesn’t mean it isn’t one the of the main factors driving payroll budgets. TV related revenue is mostly fixed, so the biggest variable portion is going to be attendance and things driven off that such as merchandise, concession, & parking. If you’re saying projected attendance doesn’t drive planned payroll you’re 100% wrong.

tray’s morality tiers from most to least acceptable action: Getting a “stationary” DUI and pleading your way out of it Exposing teammates to deadly virus and lying about it Not snitching out your teammates for a cheating scandal

Seriously

That’s true, but I do think the majority of the board would have been good with Joc.

Don Cooper

100% agree.

He doesn’t have to fake anything, but as a result of those voiced opinions we’ll never have basic gun regulations in this country.

Just out of curiosity, but when did you become a liberal?
