Not a real good deal, but much better. It just wasn't realistic for them to get it all in one contract. Incremental is key.

  • Lets take a trip down memory lane shall we... Quite an odd revealing statement, said unprovoked.  Seems pretty anti player to me. Reason why he thinks the players should have caved in mi

  • Saying "I want the owners to get more money so they spend it on cool stuff for us" is the funniest most unrealistic expectation of this thread, thank you for that

Micker Adolfo will still be a member of the White Sox organization....I think he has been for the last 18 years

He is still out of options unless something else was changed.

How were service time manipulation and tanking derailed?

 By getting the MLB players lawsuits thrown out... Oh no wait, that wasn't it.

That's what I thought.

YEEAAASSSS!!! What a great thing to read after getting home from a long day of work!! And it's a good deal. Yes!

Wait they're not canceling any games then and just delaying whatever was cancelled? How will that work? Double headers, delayed playoffs?

Nope, he is on the 40, so he has to be optioned to the minors or held on the main 26 man roster.

Yes on all of the above.

 

I want to know what the new playoff format will look like with 12 teams.

So he will probably be thrown in a trade?

Season is getting extended by 3 days to make up 3 of the games and doubleheaders to make up the rest.

When's the Sox  Home Opener I NEEDZ TO KNOW

If the details we heard are still in there...theres a limit to how many times in a row a team can be in the lottery (1 for big market teams, 2 for smaller market teams) so teams get penalized if they try to lose for years. 

There was also supposed to be a reward of additional draft picks for teams that have a top 150 prospect and call them up on opening day rather than waiting until April 15. (note that this would not affect the White Sox since they have none).

4/15 vs TB unless they were home 4/12-4/14. My bad, if so

I thought the lawsuits were for COVID related items? Or were there multiple lawsuits discussed?

All 162 will be played with a few scheduled 9 inning double headers.

Could be.  Or will wait to see if anyone claims him at the end of ST.

Ya don't say. Boras tried his best to extend the lockout.

Yeah, play an extra series at the end of the season and make up another series with doubleheaders. Fortunately for the Sox, they were playing ALC teams so should be easy to make up.
