Chicago dweller. Fear & loathing White Sox/MLB thoughts, Soccer, NBA, Illini athletics, and a little too much tequila. Seldom serious. I also collect a little cardboard.

I enjoy consuming TV/Film/Books that portray characters on a spectrum of good and bad.

You can't always pander to the masses who need everything in black & white. There are countless hours of children's stories they can watch.

There is no better way of building relationships with MLB owners than pandering for a salary cap so they catch less flack for not spending their billions.

Do we think chili spaghetti can protect Elly De La Cruz in the lineup or should we just add a little more cheese to the chili dog and hit it leadoff?

Either way, they don't have the pitching necessary.

The Reds are another team that have been in a perpetual state of rebuild for 30 years now.

Patience and lunacy are not so distant cousins in sports.

Also a 1.2% chance the cutting board was Cody Bellinger

It's okay. That pick ruined me as well.

Hagen Smith's pitch location 🀝 My self-control when it comes to telling jokes about White Sox ineptitude

Better?

Just think of the rebuild they'll kickstart when they trade the Red Sox Schultz and Hagen Smith in a package deal.

You're honestly surprised that internet trolls have a humiliation kink? Most predictable thing ever.

Instead they had games on midweek during the middle of the day. I seriously think the MLB hates it's own product.

But honestly I had fun doing fantasy baseball for the first time in a number of years. Thanks to most of you for being active and competitive 🍾🍻

Winning the inaugural fantasy.bsky.social MLB fantasy league feels even greater now that Jeff Passan congratulationed me.

Fresh college grads are in a world of hurt. I feel bad for the market they're entering.

Maybe the final two innings of today's game watching their hitters haplessly flail away against Clase was the deciding point they need to target offensive talent.

Three straight exciting offensive picks. I have no idea if they'll work out but I can commend the effort by the White Sox tonight finally reading the room. πŸ‘

Refusing to use federal funds twice in the last decade to use on a warning system. It's not the current administration's fault, but the cause is endemic of a much larger problem of overpoliticalization negatively impacting people's lives.

White Sox picked him up weeks ago for this exact situation

Vinny Capra was made for that moment.

This just feels right. Build the tower and put on the sides.

Ugh, so gross.

Penn State back at it again because they refused to fully uncircle the wagons the first time.

Bring him up. I can't handle any more Vinny Capra ABs.

Probably not? But let's focus on the positive that he had a good game tonight!

They lack tradeable assets across the board. Which I feel is a fundamental step to make this rebuild successful.

Vasil has been solid but what are they really gonna get? Maybe if they package Vasil and Wilson together they could get an interesting guy.

In Noah Syndegaard's last start against the White Sox on 8/5/23 he gave up 4 HRs (Robert, Vaughn, Andrus, Colas), and 4 stolen bases (Robert x2, Andrus x2) over 6 innings of work.

Getz gets creativity in signing a guy who hasn't pitched a competitive game since August 2023, so I'll give him that.

They both came to him weeping. Powerful men, exclaiming, "Sir, we need PEACE! Only you can do it. Thank you so much Sir!"

THANK YOU MR PRESIDENT!
