Chuck Schumer is the reason Angie Nixon lost. Hakeem Jeffries refused to endorse Zohran Mamdani until he had no other choice.These people cannot lead our party for the next two years. Far too much is at stake.WE DEMAND NEW LEADERSHIP. IT IS NOT NEGOTIABLE.

In all likelihood, Rodon/Boras would rejected the offer and the White Sox would have gotten a competitive balance pick between the 2nd and 3rd rounds. Aka picks 75-80. Amongst those picks:
Remember when the White Sox didn't give the qualifying offer to Rodon

(boston also gave him a FAT bonus to sign, which I'm sure we wouldn't have)

The Sox have moved on from John Schriffen as their play-by-play announcer. How did John do in his three year stint? Who will replace him? Join @Sean_W_Anderson & @Ecnerwal23! They’ll hear from @OptimistSox @ 2p LINK: youtube.com/live/vb4RKbsvHdQ…

well damn, my Schriffren audio soundboard will forever be an unfinished project. If anybody just needs to hear his voice again for their own reasons you let me know.
The White Sox have informed John Schriffen that his contract will not be extended as the club’s lead play-by-play announcer.

Fox Sports always bringing the weirdest mix of music cues in and out of commercial breaks. Been that way forever.

Again, you’re either newborn baby level naive or a disingenuous troll if you’re arguing in favor of a salary cap for “competitive balance” purposes. The league itself is saying it.
MLB literally admits that a salary cap wouldn’t change the thing they claim to be standing up for on behalf of “fans” (outcome based competitive balance) 😂😂😂

And again, the question isn't just whether MLB couldn't do a better job at their revenue disparity, but why the *players* should have to foot the bill for an owner vs. owner problem.

Likening it to private equity is so on the nose too. Couldn’t have written better if it was manufactured propaganda from the players side. Straight from the leeches mouth 🙏
He just single handedly decimated one of the owners biggest arguments for a salary cap

Worth emphasizing over and over. Would also suggest baking into your brain immediate skepticism regarding any messaging coming from Manfred or the owners. These are 1% elites with nobody's best interests in mind but their own.
Baseball players are still the proletariat by definition. They still sell their labor and don’t own the means of production. And they’re still engaged in a class war with those that do.
