Shoeless Joe will come back as transgender. Wonder if he/she will then return the money he took from being a part of the Black Sox ? Yeah, I know he hit .350 or something like that but for a guy that supposedly couldn't count past ten, he sure knew how much $5,000 was. Considering that was more than his salary....

Yeah, but can't take the dough, and then feign ignorance when the story comes out. Old man Comiskey was a horse's ass all day, every day, but those guys ended up losing in the end. And Jackson was one of those.

Those guys coulda had themselves a sweet run at the top for a few years had they not taken the cash instead. They were that much better than everybody else, for the times.

Sounds like Ross will be next manager.
I think he can be a good manager but the roster is shit and full of underachievers.

Nats have Stassburg tonight. Strohs could easily be down 2-0. Another factor, Washington has been hanging around for a week,while Houston battled the Yank-mees in 6. Bregman slumping as well.

Circus hire for a circus team. I don’t see any middle ground for this hire. Either amazing or disaster. I don’t think it was smart though to hire a guy that was the drinking buddy for many of those still in the clubhouse. Theo’s nuts are fully on the chopping block now.

Agreed, there weren’t many other options. They are just doubling down on the good old days. Really comes down to what offseason improvements the FO makes.

Looks bad for Houston. Ross maybe a great manager, but Cubs need to get some smarter players. SO many mental mistakes. A Leadoff hitter and a starting pitcher or 2, and about 3-4 new bullpen parts would help.

Joe Girardi to Phillies. Always liked him as a TV analyst and a Manager even though I hated The Yankees back then.
