The Cubs knew that before the trade. If he’s the player next year he was before a freak foul ball injury last year, that’s a massive boost to his value. No one knows if he can be that player again, so there’s a big issue with valuing him. If he drops an 8 War MVP caliber season next year we might look at him as a $500 million player.

Oh wait totally my bad this was about them going to arbitration with him. Yes, you're right.

January 15, 20251 yr Spring training begins on Feb. 12 for the White Sox. The start of another lost season.

Baseball fan hell is alive and well. I don't know. I'm excited to see the infield competition, and how that shakes out. I'm also very interested in watching the young rotation of Cannon, Martin, Burke and Thorpe. Last year, my senses were dulled to Lopez, DeJong, Pillar, Flexen. At least we're watching the next team develop, a bit.

At least we're watching the next team develop, a bit. I get that. There are definitely some things that, in theory, should make the season interesting, but I just can't get myself to care all that much. Maybe that changes a month or two into the season if some dudes start to stand out a little more.

But we're finally at year zero of the next rebuild. Last year was like the plane crash on Lost. This year is like early season one, where everybody's just gathering provisions and making friends.

January 16, 20251 yr New friend alert: Apparently the answer is 100. Am told Lake Forest native DJ Snelten has a minor league deal with the White Sox after pitching in the Mexican League last year.
