I know we only have 2021 to go off of, but going off of that and his entire career, I wonder if Lynn shits the bed in the playoffs.

For the Barons you've got Nastrini, Mena, Cannon, Bush, Thompson and Kelley working on piggybacking. That's pretty fun. As for Mogollon, let's get on the hype train.

Well Pedro, I admit my mistake. Elvis will lead us to the 2025 World Series.

Just build the Armor Square Field design and name it Wintrust Field at Comiskey Park. It's so fucking baffling that this team was offered one of (if not the) best ballpark designs (Camden) in MLB and the best possible name and passed them up both times. Imagine the Camden Yards design, facing the skyline, but it has the words WIN and TRUST in the name. The White Sox way.

Granted I haven't been to The Cell in a while, but like you say, after renovations it decidedly felt great. Also driving from Kankakee and back was easy. The Sox really shouldn't be talking about this until they need one. And when that time comes, they should just build it where Comiskey Park was.

"Engage in a transaction that will remove the Chicago White Sox, formerly known as the St. Paul Saints, from your ownership Mr. Jerry Michael Reinsdorf."

It is important that Elvis gets reps so that that Sox can win games.

I'm struggling to understand Gavin's presence.

When you're doing everything you can to keep Shohei, you do everything.

My guess would be that it was mostly a "1950s newspapers didn't use tildes a lot" thing to begin with, then stuck. It's definitely a more recent widespread adoption as a pronunciation aid - so people pronounce his name like how he did and his family do: Min-yo-so vs. Min-oh-so.

I'm guessing the implication is that KW Jr. is simply cashing them checks.

How could you forget Chappy's 8 first time home runs?

Maybe it's meant in a "he's untouchable because no one will try to touch him" kind of way.

Colson heard the doubters.

The absolute madlads.

Dream scenario is those two are resurgent in their contract years, then get traded for pitching while Colson and Ramos tear up Charlotte. But Pedro must prioritize the wins!

We're having very different outlooks on tank job. I'm saying punt 2024 and let their current prospects — the ones they already had, drafted, and traded for — work towards 2025 and 2026. Robert's age and contract line up with that. Same with Vaughn and Colas. I was fine selling Cease because he's regressed, I don't see them paying him, and it was a seller's market.

Hawk also constantly comes across as angry and bitter and has since before he was not-fired.

@South Side Hit Men out of morbid curiosity what's TA's win% and his win% with Moncada, if you still have those on hand?

Curt Bloom doesn't believe in Lenyn or Colas confirmed.

Mike Shirley becomes the definition of the "I'm trying jennifer" meme. But also, I understand where you're coming from.
