I just want to say thank you for not mentioning Jose Quintana…..no seriously.

Someone is getting grounded tonight.

I think it was unfair to ask that question. Obviously a 6 year old will answer questions from adults, especially ones he watches on tv. Although, one would of assumed that they were working on locking him up anyways.

Breaking news brought to you by a kindergarten student…SMH.

Man the radio guy must have freaked out. Like no way in hell would I expect a 6 year old to know what their GM dad was doing. Last thing he was probably expecting was an actual answer

Exactly. I doubt Tom Hamilton was grilling a six year old for info on Lindor

I hope moncada stays until at least June so I can see him play down here in Atlanta against the gwinnett braves. I moved here 2 years ago and was surprised by how often the Bulls snd blackhawks are on TV and I get the NFL Sunday ticket but I get absolutely no white sox games on tv.

No White Sox games on TV? You don’t get to hear “Hack Horrorson?” Lucky guy!

Harrell son only calls about half the regular season games now. I haven’t heard him call spring games yet, but I haven’t watched that many either.

I’m only 30, but I’m one of the few who enjoy hawk. I grew up on him and wimpy and I love hawk bc he just in such a homer.to me when I watch the sox, I wanna hear hawk say, “you can.. put it on the board!..yes” or hear him say “duck snort” or “dangnabit” lol
ChiSoxCity
I’m with you, love Hawk! I think most Sox fans do, it’s fans of other teams that complain he’s a homer. Well, most local broadcasters ARE homers, and he’s been doing it for a very long time. He’s earned the right to say whatever he wants, however he wants within reason.

So apparently Indians GM Mike Chernoff said that Brody had overheard a phone conversation about Jose Ramirez.
So it doesn’t look like they are trying to extend Lindor after all. At least not right now
layventsky
Or maybe they are, but Chernoff doesn’t want us to know. He probably just doesn’t want the things Brody hears to become public and potentially affect his negotiations with Lindor’s agent.

How is the system unfair to players when the players are the ones who negotiated it? If you have the option for a Super Two status or free agent status based on service time, you have to have cutoffs for them. In almost any contract, I’d expect the players and teams to both take full advantage of the terms afforded them. The MLBPA would have to be incredibly naive to think that teams wouldn’t hold players down just to get the extra year of control; they agreed to the terms anyway. If they don’t like it, they can renegotiate the cutoff. You can’t police intent, though, because whether a player is ready for the majors is subjective and teams would just use that as a loophole.
If the players really think this is unfair, then rookie contracts should just be for a certain time frame (at least 5 years but not longer than 8 years) that includes both minors and majors time. After that, a player is a free agent regardless of what level he played.

Cubs fans forget Harry was ours first but he’s their God and cold do no wrong. Hawk is that for me..I don’t like the new guy they got last year who’s doing the spring game’s with stoney..he needs to learn how to speak in the mic and not yell into it
layventsky
Is the new guy related to Billy Mays?
thepapacy
Don’t even know his name, just know I can’t stand him. I know he has like a mild form of down syndrome or high functioning autism, which is actually really cool the team hired him and gave him a shot. I just can’t stand listening to him call a game with Steve stone.
