Good to the them battle through adversity and pull out the W, last season it would have been ball game ova after giving up the lead

This.....all series long....you would think the Royals were world beaters if you didn’t know any better

Anxious to see how Gio pitches this year, it would be huge if he could figure it all out....

Is this a serious post? You have got to be joking, right? April fools is tomorrow man....

Yeah it sucks to see, couldn’t put any weight on the leg....

Well at least I saved 60 dollars now by not buying MLB The Show.....maybe next year

No opt outs.....wow just wow

These contracts are the new norm, and if you are expected to be sitting at the table from here forward for premium free agents then yes you are cheap. Harper does so much more for your organization that Machado would ever do just based on marketability alone

And yet again, the Sox and JR are cheap.....if it’s 10/330 Sox should have been all over this

Annnndddd the streak of absolutely terrible luck continues!! Yay for us!!

I have zero interest in Joc as a back up plan to either of those two, now as a second piece to one of them it would not have been a bad idea

Philly fans whine and complain all the time though, this wouldn’t be any different, hell even when they do sign him there will be fans out there complaining about him and/or saying they didn’t do enough this offseason...At the end of the day they’ve added mccutcheon, segura, and realmuto which has drastically improved their team.

Are you talking Phillies here? Even if the Phillies strike out here they wouldn’t get as much backlash as the Sox because they landed one of the best catchers in the game.

I think he’s referring to the obvious KW/RH....the Phillies have made moves, the Sox on the other hand put all their eggs in one basket and got burned

Jay and Alonso serve a purpose for one year with or without Machado. They don’t hurt the Whitesox in anyway shape or form moving forward. They had more value to us on the roster than not and I don’t blame managements forward thinking in acquiring them.

Would it be worth the extra 10 mil a year to legitimize your franchise again? We act like we are up towards the cap already, I would pay Bryce whatever it took to get him here. We have the cap room and it just gets bigger in the following years.....

You know what the crazy thing is the White Sox have a chance to fix their mistake and save face right here with Harper and it appears they are not going to do so. Even if they are behind the scenes trying to make something happen it is going to be looked at by fans like the front office just rolled over and gave up after so much press/confidence surrounding Machado.

I agree on the part of going to bed uneasy, if that was Hahn getting cute on his part with the contract negotiations and Jerry had agreed to go to 300 million then Hahn is an idiot and deserves to be fired, however he cannot be the one to blame if Uncle Jerry said this is the only way we can make 300 mil work for us...

This, you my friend have won the day. They have never been in negotiations like this before and came up short. Maybe next time, if there ever is a next time, they actually pay the $ required to get the player they want. At least that’s what one would hope....

Not a chance man, maybe in 2028 check back then

So in reality Lozano said 300 million is what we will sign for and the Sox tried to get to it and past it the cheap way and San Diego didn’t play games, gave him the guaranteed $ and we lost out because of it.

In all fairness Moncada had been working at 3rd throughout the winter

This speaks volumes, yes we are in a rebuild, I get that but at the same time 30 hell even 40 mil extra doesn’t put you at the league average, so no way would signing either of those two have broke the bank

He might be right but putting a date down for a presser 3 days from now isn’t that far fetched to come up with on a guess....

So you are telling me that they did not get a chance to up their offer before he signed?
