September 21, 2025Sep 21 Obviously it depends on the valuation purchased in at...as well as what time frame/s you're looking at. It's a lot closer than most would think in terms of ROI.

I think we can all agree, regardless of the specific numbers, that sports is not merely a leisurely, hobbyish money sink...they're making a bunch of money on it. I suspect Cohen is wealthier after buying the Mets...though my conspiratorial thought is that he's simply spending his money before the SEC takes it away.

Yes I know Sec and Exch Commission.

This isn't about "different perspectives" It is about a factual statement completely ignored and misrepresented. Again. Which is exactly why I bowed out before the inevitable meltdown, again.
September 22, 2025Sep 22 29. White Sox (previously: 29) Kyle Teel. Teel won’t end up reaching 80 games this year, but the 75 or so he has played has shot him to the top of nearly every White Sox statistical leaderboard. (He leads them in WAR, playing less than half a season.) The White Sox have some young exciting position players in Colson Montgomery, Chase Meidroth and Miguel Vargas. But Teel is the best of them. mlb.com names Teel best Sox player of 2025 over Colson S.Smith Tauchman Meidroth
September 23, 2025Sep 23 It would help if the Sox would stop trading for declining prospects and use the July trading period for positive end. The #3 TB prospect pitching against the Barons was #26 for Seattle a year ago; their #6 prospect, part of the same Randy A trade, was Seattle #14 a year ago. Trading for decliners is lazy. And one thing Getz shouldn't be is lazy. He should be all over the other teams' systems, including his buddies in Tampa.

No franchise was paying up for a dude like Hauser. It does take two to tango.

And one thing Getz shouldn't be is lazy. He should be all over the other teams' systems, including his buddies in Tampa. I don't think many teams give up valuable prospects in July. So many trades are often rentals. Trade just to trade is basically it for bad teams along with paying a player not to play for them. So often the consistent winning teams come out ahead in those but even that is temporary if they don't extend them.

Tied for 24th now and could easily be in 27th before the weekend is over. With the Tigers and Mets winning tonight and the Getz’s losing again they are 26th in the league since the All Star break, which is in fact better than 29th.
