The Astros were hacked by a member of the Cardinals FO.

I’m sure it has been noted, but if true this would mean our two biggest contracts were given to guys who had never played a mlb game. Weird.

Pick a team.

I’ve lived in a few cities but I consider Toronto my home. Wouldn’t be hard to find a new team, in theory. But the White Sox will be my team until I die. However, I already cancelled a trip to Chicago this summer, and will go to the east coast instead. Not many other ways to express my displeasure than to not give my money.

Didn’t see that but good idea.

People saying they won’t be fans anymore are hurt, betrayed, etc. You don’t feel that way unless you care. People react differently when they feel that way and as long as they aren’t hurting anybody fuck off and let them get the frustrations out.

You must be bummed the Cubs didn’t sign him

Yeah, I’m not really bummed about Harper just bc I had no hope for them signing him. But this has been an awful offseason for the entire front office. Not only did they completely botch the whole thing, but they did it in the most fan murdering way possible.

Damn good for the Phillies.

“We’ve been in contact, but comfortable with what we have blah blah blah.” That he wouldn’t say anything I would take as an indication they are on information lockdown....thus meaning there is actual information to lock down. Thats how how I interpreted it.

I saw this earlier and found it interesting he didn’t give a typical fluff answer. He doesn’t often flat out reject answering a question like that. This would be the sort of thing that would have previously given me hope. Lucky for me, I know now that hope is the devil and life has no meaning.

Yeah my optimism is gone, as is my excitement for the season and overall will to live.

I’m alarmed at how little I give a shit at this point.

I think the Phils paid for some of what Thome was owed.

Gomez just reiterated something someone else tweeted earlier after he was asked. And his his info was mostly accurate, especially when compared to others and ESPECIALLY Dan Clark. I believe that’s all that was being said. I don’t think there’s a chance in hell the Sox get Harper, but your assessment was wrong.

What a clown show.

Santana will make the Opening Day roster if he’s healthy. They rarely offer that kind of guaranteed money on a minor league deal if it isn’t agreed on already. The MiL deal protects them from injury and buys some time to clear a roster spot.

These dickheads aren’t signing Harper. They’ll sign Adam Jones or something and rave about his leadership in camp.

I’m in Cuba right now so I’m trying to delay my disappointment until I’m home. But I had made plans to take the lady to Chicago this summer for a weekend, and those plans won’t be happening anymore. Going to go somewhere less depressing.

It’s kind of impressive that I’ve lost interest in the season and it’s not even March yet. Usually it takes all the way to June for that to happen. Progress!

Acuna or soto

I might need a break. I’ll still be a Sox fan because I’m a fucking idiot, but this is too much. The only thing this franchise seems capable of is disappointing the few fans stupid enough to stick by them.

Haha, yeah. He’s from rural Ontario, same as the show takes place.

The expression doesn’t refer to women. It just basically means let’s get going, hurry up, etc.

Great show. My dad always used that expression growing up also. Appropriate given the circumstances.
