Jose Abreu

The White Sox signing Machado, McCutchen, and Corbin yet still trotting out Adam Engel as the every day center fielder would be a travesty

It sounds like that's exactly what happened

The same reason they're trying to trade Swarzak right after acquiring him

I don't see why that's so bad. Would people rather have him be fired via text or phone call?

Tomorrow, to be exact

The report from Jay Glazer this morning said he was "good enough to play"

By starting Daniel over a (reportedly) healthy Trubisky, the Bears pretty much were signaling that they were fine losing that game. I warned earlier in the week that it was a bad move but most were underrating the Giants. Now the Bears have very little room for error.

Based on what I've read, I think Collins has an even better eye

Agree with all of these but I'd add that I would hope/expect a healthy, 24 year old Dunning to be in Charlotte by June. I also think Luis Gonzalez is a guy we should push to AAA if his numbers are similar to what they were in Kanny/W-S

LaVine is already benefiting from the added spacing Markkanen provides. Lauri looked rusty as expected but great to see him out there for significant minutes

That article is as valid as your opinion or mine, in fact probably even less valid. When they made the predictions, they didn't even remember that the White Sox existed, and I'm being 100% serious. They had a section for their teams who are predicted to sign none of these guys, and the White Sox weren't even listed in that section. They were the only team that was not mentioned a single time in the article. It took a few hours and some Twitter comments for them to go back and revise and add some comments about the Sox.

Why are so many in such a rush to trade half of our prospects away?

He's awful though. Might as well have kept Kevan Smith if we're gonna sign someone like him

Lauri's back.

I'm not a fan of Duber. I admittedly do not listen to the podcasts but just based on articles, Duber seems even more pessimistic than Fegan, who is already sometimes tough for me to tolerate

I'm thinking of the tweet about being nervous because there was an "Arab" on his flight. I was sure it was Kelce but now I can't find it anywhere online.

I believe Kelce had some racist tweets but not sure about the other ones

no

Here's a thread of Ken Rosenthal delivering the Cubs endless praise for the situation...?

And despite all that, he's still probably a top 3 all around catcher in baseball. I also wouldn't call him a "liability" vs LHP (just based on numbers); he's certainly worse but not to the point where he would need to be platooned

They're pretty clearly going to make multiple signings

Good. No real reason for him to get consistent ABs. He was a black hole post-April

You don't remember correctly. I don't know why you need to make a dozen posts spreading misinformation when plenty of posters keep correcting you. It's not that hard to click on a link. https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/c/colomal01.shtml

Reds non-tendered Billy Hamilton. If we're really gonna give Engel another 400+ PAs, I'd rather give them to Hamilton.
