Who do I write to get the White Sox to bring this logo back?

The Sox current logo/color scheme is legit fantastic.

I'll give you that the home uniforms are excellent, but as a hat logo, meh.

Apparently it's 10/300. I doubt the Sox were anywhere close to that

Good for him, sucks for the White Sox. I let myself get my hopes up a bit, but I can't say I'm surprised Jerry didn't want to open up his wallet.

This is the saddest I've been as a Sox fan, and that includes the day Drake Laroche was named team captain.

Strike in 94 with the White Sox in 1st place and the best record in the AL was worse. So was Ventura leaving, but yeah this sucks.

Opt out after 5 years.

Nice signing. Now all they need is a rotation.

Would you guys really have wanted him for 10 years? Yikes. He has limited plate discipline as it is so once his bat speed slows down he's going to be really gross.

It's not my money, and not unrealistic to think he uses the opt out after 5. So yeah, I would have been fine with that deal. the White Sox need some legit stars, of which they have zero right now.

I'm surprised the final number ended up being 300mil, and I'm not surprised that the Sox didn't match that. I would've been thrilled if they did, but that's quite the jump from the 240-50 number of those initial offers.

Also what the hell is Harper going to hold out for at this point. No way he goes for the same deal or less.

I totally get the "Not my money" part and I agree, but we're seeing even with the Yankees and Dodgers that the luxury cap is getting treated as a hard cap. I just think if you sign Manny you're out on a lot of other guys.

I'm assuming he's had more money on the table the entire time, but is just holding out for more opt-outs.

And yes, I'm confident someone will give Bryce a little more than Manny got.
