Maybe Houston to replace Abreu, who's batting .073? Woof. ? But, yeah, Vaughn has to head to Charlotte and try to figure it out one last time.

Last year, there were 35 doubleheaders, with 16 total sweeps (45.71%). 9 of those sweeps were by the visitors. If any team can get swept at home in a doubleheader, it's the 2024 White Sox.

Props to the 1B ump on getting that bang-bang play called right in real time.

I won't miss those - they can bring them back for a year in 2033.

Who let this guy in here anyway...

He looked great. If he keeps it up, do we keep him or flip him is the question.

They have a nice lake? Or a good restaurant? Let’s talk about that instead ?

I’m ok with the 7 HRs in 10 games for some reason (you’re not going to homer in every game, right?)… but, 15 runs in 10 games is an embarrassment.

At first I read this and thought “hey, middle of the pack - not bad!” Then I thought about for a second… “ooooohhhhh…”

It's a lot of the same stiffs, though - Moncada, Eloy, Benintendi, Vaughn. Half the lineup is still the same hurt, underachieving crew.

You're already paying $1M per year for earthworm reproduction research (that's true btw). There are going to be 2 sides to this forever - and we'll never agree :)... One is "don't give a cheapskate billionaire owner more money". One is "you're pissing away our money anyway - let's get a cool park on the lake".

We don’t want this to devolve into a political discussion. But, let’s be honest. Illinois in general - and Chicago in particular - tax the hell out of everyone. Residents, tourists, passersby… We may as well have a cool stadium complex to show for it.

I’d be all for relegation - I’m so over this “tank for 3 years” thing.

Just Spring Training, but worst run differential in the league. I don’t think it’ll be much different during the regular season.

#10 farm system ranking notwithstanding, I'm not super-excited about any of these guys - Montgomery included.

What a mess ?

There’s no way they’re adding. This schlub team of has-beens and never-wases was put together for the sole purpose of hoping for bounce-back years to get lottery tickets at the deadline.

The fact that MLB.tv isn't free during Spring Training still boggles my mind. I'll have to follow along on Game Day until T-Mobile gives out the free MLB.tv on 3/26 :/

That's a good point - and probably right. I could totally see people saying they were trying to copy Wrigley.

If anyone can pay $370M for something that costs $152M, it's the government ?

Wow - that Kopech comparison. Looks like they grabbed a shirsey off a Walmart rack.

That site is a clown show. They’ve run 4 articles on the new stadium - all of them negative. Sure, there are concerns, but they’re in the very early stages of this thing.

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 ?
