In a sick twist of fate, it seems like Yonder Alonso and Jon Jay actually convinced Manny Machado to sign with the Padres. All right, maybe convinced is too strong of a word to use, but the two White Sox players certainly didn’t tell Machado anything bad about San Diego. Sure, Alonso and Jay were […]

The Chicago Bears free agency plan is known only to them at this point. Everybody is uncertain on what they intend to do both in regards to their own free agents and the outer market. Two key moves have already been made though. Bobby Massie was signed to a new extension and tight end Dion […]

Slowly, but surely the Cubs are building back up their minor league system. When you have as many prospects graduate to the big leagues as the Cubs have from 2014-17, the farm is going to take a hit, especially when you also factor in big trades to add to a team competing for championships.

The loss of Vic Fangio was always going to be tough for the Chicago Bears. He’s one of the best defensive coordinators in the NFL. One does not simply lose a man of that caliber and expect things to stay the same. Granted, they did a fine job in securing a replacement. Chuck Pagano is […]

I’ve accepted some time ago that the Cubs aren’t going to sign Bryce Harper. Fine, but the team has no excuse not to upgrade another position when it’s become pretty obvious that it won’t make a dent in Tom Ricketts’ wallet. Yup, I’m talking about the backup catcher spot again. You may not think it’s […]

After the disappointment that was Manny Machado agreeing to a deal with the Padres earlier this week White Sox fans were hoping the team would turn their attention to Bryce Harper. Unfortunately, that won’t be happening. White Sox GM Rick Hahn was on 670 The Score Wednesday night and was asked about the team’s pursuit […]

Few general managers in the NFL are better at keeping their cards close to the vest when it comes to the draft than Ryan Pace. Multiple times over the past four years he’s managed to catch the entire football world off guard with his moves. Last season with his move for Anthony Miller. The year […]
