Oscar Colas declared free agent
The MLB needs to either have an international draft or allow them to enter the traditional draft when they hit 18. While they are at it, they need to get rid of the stupid rule requiring college players to finish their junior year before entering the draft.

@KrankinSox is this Bernie guy legit? He isn't named after a food or an appendage, so I'm skeptical.

Joe Musgrove Thread
Madrigal ain't hitting .340 in a regular season. He also may put up a sub .030 ISO. The guy has absolutely no muscle on him.

Madrigal and Rutherford. Get er done!

All depends on the cost of course. If all it takes is The Little Magician and some lesser pieces, sure. Sign La Stella to replace him and you're good to go.

Andrew Yang filed to run for mayor of NYC. Bill de Blasio is terrible. I will be pulling for Yang.

Badler: Sox expected to sign Yoelki Cespedes
@Y2Jimmy0 @Y2Jimmy, do you expect them to play him a year in the DSL like they did with Robert? I hope this isn't the case.

Tommy La Stella Emoji of a Target Discussion
La Stella would be a great super sub on this team. He'd definitely get some good playing time, especially when Vaughn is still in the minors. I assume he wants to sign somewhere as a starter, though.

Kyle? SS2K5? Amigos?

They throw a bunch of crap at the wall + steal info from others. To be privy to all the information they spew out, they would have to be Rick Hahn. They also somehow know every other team interested in whatever player the White Sox are pursuing. They are frauds. Even if Portillos has been correct, he throws way too much other crap at the wall that isn't correct.

From what I can tell, they seem pretty evenly ranked.

Badler: Sox expected to sign Yoelki Cespedes
I was so appalled by TLR's hire that I almost stopped cheering for the team. Were you that appalled? Didn't think so.

Why would Paddy stay with this organization? I'm surprised he hasn't bolted to somewhere that would provide him with additional resources and spending.- 2020 Election Thoughts
Yes, we get it. The rich get bailed out and play by different rules. News flash: it has always been that way and always will be that way.- 2020 Election Thoughts
I have student debt still, about 10k left. Would it be cool if they paid it off for me? Of course. Do I need it? Not at all. Were in the middle of a pandemic and many people have lost their jobs. We're really talking about bailing out the college educated up to $50k while there are people struggling mightily that have gotten only a fraction of that in stimulus checks. Believe or not that isn't very fair to a lot of people, and that does matter.- Since 1990 who is the Sox 2nd best player?
That was Abreu's MO before this year. Always a better hitter with nothing was on the line. He dispelled that a bit this year. I'll have to see it one more year before I'm convinced.- 2020 Election Thoughts
People with student loans are generally middle to upper class folk, who have the ability to make more money due to their degrees. You're b****ing about bailing out the rich, then advocating for a bail out towards the middle to upper class. How is that fair to those who never had college as an option in the first place?- Tony LaRussa to plead guilty to lesser charge
I'm not going to waste my time digging around for it. Somebody said it.- Tony LaRussa to plead guilty to lesser charge
Some people here want the team to lose rather than win if La Russa is the manager- Tony LaRussa to plead guilty to lesser charge
