Trying to hype myself up for the future of the White Sox, so I bought some tickets to watch Roch Cholowsky.

Sounds like Leury Garcia.
Luisangel Acuña offers defense and baserunning, and if his offensive tools get unlocked at all, it’s a bonus. That sounds a lot like the dude he just got traded for, even if it’s still hard to believe this is how it all ended up for Luis Robert Jr. and the White Sox.

Could've been worse, could've been better: White Sox trade of Luis Robert Jr. matches his tenure - Sox Machine
For someone present on the day the White Sox introduced Luis Robert Jr. back in 2017, with both Jerry Reinsdorf and José Abreu on hand to tour him around a field he wouldn’t play on for another three ...

If Ozzie Guillen was a better manager, there's a very good chance Andruw Jones would have reached the playoffs with the White Sox.

If you're a "Big Hall" type of person, Jones would have been one of FIVE HOFers on that hypothetical 2010 Sox playoff roster.

I hope Lenyn Sosa is traded to a team that loves and appreciates him (and gives him 150 starts).

In soccer, they always say not to fall in love with loan players. In baseball, the saying should be not to fall in love with utility infielders during rebuilds.
Can confirm Jeff Passan's report that the White Sox have traded Luis Robert Jr. to the Mets for Luisangel Acuña and Truman Pauley

I have the chance to do the dumbest, saddest, White Sox trip of all time in a few months.

Using only mileage and paying nothing out of pocket, I can fly to Sacramento in the morning, watch the Sox play at a fake stadium, and then fly back home after the game...

Should I do it?

So the FA is going to seize all the American owned clubs in the Prem this week, right?

Good on Anthony Rendon, truly.

It's a shame he didn't continue his superstar path, but taking $250m from shitbird Arte Moreno is beautiful work. Original devious lick.

Finally got around to framing this jersey today.

Winning this kit signed by the entire squad at a Brentford event in Chicago was one of my favorite moments of 2024.

As a perk of a gig I was working, I now have an abundance of mulled wine. 10 liters...

Knowing there's no way I could (or would want to) consume 10 liters of wine before it goes off, what else could it be used for in bulk?

I know I can poach pears and use it for baking, but I need more uses...

It's wild that Philip Rivers hates being around his 24 children so much he'd rather go get a brain injury than spend more time at home.

This is one of the dumbest looking cards I've ever seen.

This card looks like it was designed by the dudes who used make labels for HGC.

One guy I would have liked to see drafted in the Rule 5 is Ian Mejia.

Is he a good prospect? No.
Is he a great pitcher? Not particularly.
Does he have great stuff? Nah.

But I love pitchers with absolutely no velo that still get results.

He absolutely could eat a bunch of innings for the Sox.

The Nationals did very well to acquire Harry Ford.

It's clear that Keibert Ruiz is never going to develop. Harry Ford has a shot at becoming a decent enough starter to offset that awful Ruiz extension.

The club can also maximize value and gain a draft pick with a strong ROY finish by Ford

I think it's really fucked up that a person was able to acquire a mummy that was undoubtedly looted and stolen from Egypt, and it has now been cut up to make a trading card.
A "original piece of an Egyptian mummy" in every box.

I tried to take a step back from Spotify this year and instead did a lot of listening on Radio Garden (highly recommend for random world radio stations).

That said, I'm undoubtedly sucker for Southside rap, sapphic alt-country, Bakersfield sound, and communist jazz from Guinea.

I'm not sure if Mark Buehrle ever gets elected to the HOF, but honestly, this is the year it should happen.

It's a weak class, and he's arguably the best player on the ballot without steroid allegations.

If Buehrle played for the Yankees or Dodgers, I think he'd already be in.

I don't hate this deal. I'm not sure how Ponce will be in his MLB return, but for $10m/year, he doesn't need to be a star to make the contract make sense. Hell, he doesn't even need to be particularly good to make that commitment worthwhile.
Blue Jays are in agreement with Cody Ponce on a deal that further augments their rotation per sources.

@ken-rosenthal.bsky.social was first & Passan says the deal is for $30 million over three years

I may love thousands of miles away from Chicago, but there's still only one thing I'll leave the house to buy on Black Friday...

Even as breweries merge and corporations reign supreme, BCBS remains really, really good stuff.

Brother, there has got to be something else you could say about the new White Sox first base coach.

Face of steroid era outliers Brady Anderson joins good ol' boy Adam Eaton and Kurt "MAGA" Suzuki on the Angels coaching staff.
