for the cubsposters, assuming the ricketts family actually ponies up as all the rumors say, which shortstop would you want?

Turner if you get him to play some CF. Correa (I know) if you can get him to play some 3B

Honestly idk what to do with this FA class though. Middle infield isn't our big need and the SP class that is likely to opt out (aka very few of them) loving sucks

It would have been kind of funny if Judge stayed stuck at 61 and this bomb at Camden was a reason for it

STAC Goat posted:

That sounds like they’ll have two jerseys but will wear the one that fits with their first ab of the game. So if a lefty is pitching and you’re batting righty you’d wear it on your left side. If they bring a rightie in and you switch sides you keep the same jersey.

Yeah it's this. Appreciate the clarification!

I guess they have data that shows naming your ballpark something that all the fans hate or putting patches and logos that all the fans hate all over stuff is effective, but I thought FTX was a uniform company before they were revealed as this months biggest crypto scam

My conspiracy theory is that marketing itself is a huge scam and no one knows what works, successful marketing is as predictable and repeatable as making a viral meme and all the marketing companies are juking the stats

Some of the ads at parks really baffle me. We have several huge sponsors paying us untold amounts of money and I still could not tell you what they do or why they think it's a value-add to have this sort of advertisement in the park.

I asked that too but don't quite remember the answer. I want to say that the stupid-expensive authentic ones will, but the cheaper ones made specifically to wear will not. sure hope that's the case.
