December 5, 20232 yr Just now, Chicago White Sox said: There should be exceptions in the CBA that Reinsdorf owned teams shouldn’t be subject to revenue-sharing paying team rules. What a fucking crock of s%*# that this old f*** has hijacked this franchise. And he'll end up living past 100.
December 5, 20232 yr Ive always wondered if the Sox crowd will cheer up on news of Reinsdorf croaking.

The rule for next year's pick sucks ass though. This is the correct take. They are pretty much picking where they should be. Would have been nice to be top 3 or outside of 6, but luck is a fickle mistress. Such is life.
December 5, 20232 yr 2 biggest winners of this stupid lottery -- Twins and Cleveland. Biggest losers: A's, Nats, Sox.
December 5, 20232 yr What a bust. Might as well add to payroll to fill 1yr holes and try to build a 3rd place team.

The rule for next year's pick sucks ass though. it sucks because the White Sox will suck as bad or worse in 2024, but cannot pick i believe above number 10 (like Washington) for 2025 based on the rules, as the Sox are not a revenue sharing ballclub.

I think the answer to that is an overwhelming yes….. but on the other note it just shows karma is a b**** for an owner who doesn’t want to spend money. No top 3 pick for you lol

Oops, already filled a couple holes with Paul DeJong, Mike Soroka, and possibly Erick Fedde. Fill the rest of the team with high AAV 1-2 year deals. Edited December 5, 20232 yr by Bob Sacamano

December 5, 20232 yr It sucks because of being 5 or 6, but hopefully we take a very good player at 5, who is there every year. Cool reaction from Antonetti. Must be nice.
December 5, 20232 yr only way he sells the team is if attendance keeps plummetting to the point where he's humiliated into selling

Right or wrong
December 5, 20232 yr I think the Sox fan base's cynicism has reached a new level that hasn't been seen before in the last 30 yrs, i wouldnt be surprised if more front office firings happen in 2024, it's gonna be a s%*# show and I think the ballpark will more than reflect it. it'll be even worse than 2023 can you dig it
