Those Naperville Nicky jerseys gonna sell like hot cakes I’m sure…..?

Might have sold around 100 Benintendi jerseys all of last year.

Ohtani would sell that amount per Chicago block.

It’s not already that way?

We’ve been in Florida 30 years and yes when I do return to visit relatives I’ve noticed that the Cubs get most of the air time. It’s not new and I remember it was that way in the starting in 1982 when the Tribune bought the Cubs and Harry Caray became the Cubs TV play by play guy however the Sox did become the first Chicago baseball team to draw 2 million in 1983. The Sox became a little bit more relevant in the early 90s with the new stadium and good teams but except for 1991 the Cubs have out drawn the Sox 99% of the time even in 2005 and 2006. Trouble with the Sox down through the years was never being able to sustain long periods of great teams unless you go back to the 17 straight winning seasons in the GO GO era and even then because of the Yankees they only made it to the World Series one time in 1959. 

 

I hope this is it.

 

10/700. Passan confirmed.

 

my god

I’d rather have 7, 100m players than 1 700m

I wonder if the airplane tracker dudes can confirm this.

How about .1 players that make $7 billion?

Baseball is ruined. Seriously. Contract 10 teams at least, because all free agents will be 200+ mil going forward and shitty owners wont pay.

My Lord.... 700 million

 This dudes kids kids kids kids are good

Ohtani going to Toronto would have been so great for the game. Oh well. Dodgers winning out should come as no surprise.

Agreed

Dodgers. That Number is ridiculous…..

Edited December 9, 20232 yr by Scubadentist

The fact that they have a 700 million contract and the sox haven’e even been close to 100.

Damn 

This was always the answer, IMO

 

 

The dodgers now have a player paid nearly 10x the highest contract the White Sox have given lol

Comparable market size 

Dodgers get Ohtani, and seems he gets paid for years after this deal is up. 

Can’t imagine how upset Angels and Jays fans are.  I’m pumped it wasn’t the Cubs.

Cease to the Dodgers seems likely now

Agreed. Their fanbase would be insufferable

I am hoping this signing is the move where Jerry calls a board meeting and says it is time to exit baseball and they put the team up for sale. 

I hope Kikuchis sushi dinner was very nice
