Imagine what his value would be today in the glass arm era.

even below mediocre is expensive these days

So did most of MLB. That's how you lose 100 games

LOL, Brewers are the king of the 90+ win seasons but always fall short in Oct. At some point that loses excitement with their fans and probably most of the MLB fans. People believe in the post season anything can happen. Cheapass seems to fail in the post season. You can crank out stud pitchers but even that will have a valley. The Cubs rarely need to add when the rest of the division is subtracting.

Let's always forget Getz was a failed farm director unless you are into always blaming the guy above

It is sad that White Sox fans have too much in common with Marlin, A's, Pirate fans.

I will evaluate it on Robert's performance with the Mets. I will be looking at it to see if this organization is truly baseball hell.

at least 10 ST invites

take that money and pay for Benintendi to go away

So we lookin at only losing 99 and consider it a victory

seems like a Getz move

allows cheap owners to stay cheap owners

The winning teams viewership has to outweigh the teams who can't have nice things or in a forever rebuild. With price of streaming that will always go up eventually people just stop. I can no longer justify the price of even a spring training ticket. How many people can turn on a TV to watch a game without having an upgrade type package. It still lags compared to the NFL and NBA. Post season wins matter. The Brewers are the best record team that falls short.

that's also what happens when a fan buys a ticket

Isn't it fun to always talk about players we will never get?

filed under they have no clue what they are doing

Waiting for the teams in their division to get weaker.

But this is the White Sox we are talking about,,,,,,,,they don't do such things

not exactly a Sox trademark but more often like the other F word

Moncada had a solid 2025 - how does one define that? He played in 30 games?

As for some fans it always relates to how the Cubs do. Rejoicing in another team's failures - yawn. Competitive should only mean making it to the post season regularly. The Brewers are competitive. Close but not playing in Oct. with expanded playoffs is mediocre. Our bar is always much lower.

I just don't want to walk in those shoes. I'd rather guess at lottery numbers.

I wish I was giddy about this. The only positive it is someone new. He's not a proven MLB player. If he fails I understand why Reinsdorf is reluctant to spend money. The organization is not good at scouting in the big leagues. If he is a success after one year I assume they will trade him. That's the typical pattern of budget teams. Small market fans are so conditioned to this. Those fans can never have nice things. I think that really hurts baseball.

Just think the Sox offered him more money.

I would say that was the biggest change in 2025. A 100 loss Venable team was worth watching compared to a 100 loss Grifol team.
