They can’t even keep an In-N-Out burger 😂. I’ll be seeing an A’s game in Vegas, though.

All I could find is him reporting on the same "tapped in source"

The billionaires are still going to be billionaires. And, we’re going to pay the same taxes either way. We can either have an awesome ballpark and not have the potholes fixed, or not have a ballpark and not have the potholes fixed 😁

Agreed - it’d be a huge win for the city. I really hope it gets done 🤞

Honestly, I don’t understand the “I don’t want my tax dollars going towards a ballpark” thing. A baseball stadium is something tangible. You drive past it on your way to work everyday. You pop in and catch a game and have a churro every so often. You see it on TV. If there were only 600 politicians in Illinois making $100k per year, I’d rather my money go towards a $2.1B stadium than 35 years of their salaries. But, that’s just me.

I don’t know about that - I’ll definitely be planning a weekend trip in Vegas to see the Sox. I imagine a lot of baseball fans of other teams will as well.

ISWYDT - Happy New Year!

Ugh - take it to sbnation, man.

lol - you joke, but I’d be fine with them putting Eloy back out there. Who cares about “injury risk” at this point. Maybe he surprises and we can unload him at the deadline.

Kenny always gets his man! Wait... are we still doing that? 😅

We could talk about all the guys we’re “out” on?

This got me excited for a second. We need a last name in the thread title.

Yep, I think Nashville is a foregone conclusion at this point. For nostalgia's sake, I'd like to see Montreal get their Expos back. For my own selfish reasons, I'd like to have the "Austin Texans". In the end, I think it probably goes to Salt Lake City.

So, we're the frontrunners in the Nashville sweepstakes now?

I'd take being in the postseason hunt every year over being basically eliminated in May. Every. Single. Time.

That's incredible. And in 2018, they 'only' won 92 games. In 2017, they won 104. I wish we had nice things.

What could we get from the Cubbies if we give them back Cease and Eloy?

I hope Swisher is in there. We should have a thread about Top 10 Disliked Sox... maybe it'll make us feel better about the current roster

Put me in the "Trade Robert" camp. The chances of the Sox being competitive in the next 4 years are low without an infusion of young talent. Robert is the last real chip we have (after Cease). The problem is... most teams aren't willing to part with what he's worth.

It's really bad. And, it's going to be really bad for at least a half of a decade. But, there's no way in hell that MLB will allow this dysfunctional club to exit Chicago. There's almost 125 years of history here.

Yep - interesting stuff. A falling bullet can definitely injure you, but the odds of 2 landing that close to each other have to be almost zero. Either way we’ll never get an answer.

The same time it always does. Whenever you want to pay 😕

Worth a shot.

Thank you! I would’ve missed this one. Ordered 😁

Why bother, though? Just release him and call it a day.
