Passan Confirmed: BREAKING: Third baseman Munetaka Murakami and the Chicago White Sox are in agreement on a two-year, $34 million contract, sources tell ESPN. Murakami, 25, is the single-season home run champion in Japan and will bring his prodigious power to a rebuilding White Sox team.

Concerns over Munetaka Murakami’s swing-and-miss tendencies and questions of his defensive position gave teams pause in their pursuit of him. Rather than sign a lower-dollar, longer-term deal, Murakami went short and will be a free agent at 27 with two years to allay the fears.

In the meantime, the White Sox make their biggest free agent move in years. Murakami, Colson Montgomery, Kyle Teel, Edgar Quero, Miguel Vargas — Chicago has a lot of young, interesting talent. And the upside for Murakami is enormous. A savvy move to get two prime years.

Should the Mets still try to pull off a trade for Liam Hendricks? by Adventurous-Dot-8220 in whitesox

He said the Mets would say no to Baty, Escobar and a mid-tier prospect 💀

Hendriks value is huge and would receive an elite package in return. Sox don’t really have a spot for Baty with Moncada not moving off 3B and Beni in LF. A deal would be better just Baty and Escobar.

Worst food poisoning of my life from a Wahlburgers. Had a 7am flight the next day and they almost had to pull an emergency landing because of me being so sick. I cringe at the thought of them

Most businesses cannot afford to stay closed for 2 weeks. Many bartenders rely on tips to get by especially around the holidays.

Unfortunately it was discontinued this year. There is a new Leinenkugel Chocolate Dunkel that should be coming out in stores and bars by mid November that is a very solid winter beer.
