  • 184 | McGonigle Gets PAID After 61 At-Bats
    Apr 16 2026

    #Tigers sign phenom Kevin McGonigle to staggering 8-year, $150M extension in latest example of a trend made famous by the spectacular failure of former #WhiteSox GM Rick Hahn.

    Much-hyped top prospect, Noah Schultz, got off to a rough start in his #WhiteSox debut.

    Another day, another Southside Pope promo goes viral.

    Legendary manager Pat Murphy rips #Brewers fans for booing struggling closer Trevor Megill, then considers demoting him.

    #ThisIsMyCrew unleashes utterly unnecessary "Wisco" Nike City Connect 2.0 uniforms.

    Pete Crow-Armstrong's struggles continue after signing massive extension with the #Cubs.

  • 183 | Obligatory Early Overreactions
    Apr 7 2026

    #Brewers sweep #WhiteSox on Opening Weekend on their way to the best record in baseball (again).

    Sox end early skid with unlikely sweep of defending AL champion #BlueJays.

    Pete went to Sox home opener and lived to tell the tale.

    Ozzie Guillen gets well-deserved number retirement by Sox.

    Munetaka Murakami vs. Kevin McGonigle: historic debuts by both AL Rookie of the Year candidates made everyone want to get in on the nickname game (for better or worse).

    Justin Verlander missed his first #Tigers home start since 2017 after a bad left hip sent him to an early-season IL stint.

    Automated Ball-Strike challenge system debuts with rave reviews from everyone but the umpires themselves.

    #Cubs are already putting starting pitching depth to the test with Matthew Boyd and, more disturbingly, Cade Horton's injuries.

    Nico Hoerner's extension shows that "intelligent spending" is alive and well, while the "Cubs are cheap" narrative is dead (for now).

  • 182 | NostraDumbass: 2026 Season Predictions
    Mar 25 2026

    Happy Opening Day (for all who have Netflix, at least).

    #Cubs give Pete Crow-Armstrong a $115M birthday present, but was that a good idea?

    Bitter Frank Thomas is so bitter he's taking the #WhiteSox to court.

    Yet another possible landing spot for Sox Park 3.0 emerges in a place few would've seen coming.

    We make our annual pre-season predictions for division winners, wild cards, #WorldSeries winner, MVPs, Cy Youngs, and Rookies of the Year that won't be even close.

  • 181 | Could Sox Move to Indiana?
    Mar 4 2026

    Could Jerry Reinsdorf resist another sweetheart stadium deal for the #WhiteSox even if it meant moving to Hammond, Indiana?

    Fans and pundits should be happy Tarik Skubal is pitching in the World Baseball Classic at all instead of whining about his limited availability and choice of opponent.

    EYEWASH: #Tigers' new alternate home and road uniforms to (almost) universal acclaim.

    #Cubs rotation gets a boost as Justin Steele resumes baseball activities ahead of schedule, while Shota Imanaga continues to get shelled.

    Apparently, one logo just wasn't enough for the #Cubs to properly celebrate their 150th anniversary.

    Pat Murphy couldn't be any MORE deserving of a contract extension as #Brewers manager.

    For whatever it's worth, 2026 PECOTA projections love the Cubs. But the Tigers? Not so much.

  • 180 | Brother's Wife or Wife's Sister?
    Feb 19 2026

    Maybe the MLBPA will be better off with new leadership, considering the horrific judgment ex-president Tony Clark showed when he hired his sister-in-law, whom he was also BANGING, all while embezzling funds (allegedly, of course).

    Being forced to pay Tarik Skubal an extra $13M didn't stop the #Tigers from going full send on 2026 by signing Framber Valdez for $115M AND beloved legend Justin Verlander for another $13M.

    The #WhiteSox made multiple headlines for mispeaking, misspelling, and misremembering their own history, offending a Hall of Famer and fans alike.

    Add the ominous "Enjoy The Season" to "Biblical Loses" and "Breaking Even" to #Cubs owner Tom Ricketts' list of unfortunate and infamous quotes.

    Will the #brewers' addition-by-subtraction philosophy, mixed with some voodoo, continue to pay dividends?

    EYEWASH: #Marlins throw it back to classic teal while the #Rangers may have created the greatest giveaway of all time.

  • 179 | Cubs Sign Bregman 1 Year Too Late
    Jan 22 2026

    #WhiteSox dump Luis Robert's salary on #Mets after adding Muni Murakami on a low-risk, high-reward deal.Alex Bregman FINALLY lands with the #Cubs one year after it made the most sense, but are they really taking a step forward or merely treading water?The Tarik Skubal arbitration case is the opening battle of the looming CBA war between MLB owners and the Players Association, NOT an indictment of the #Tigers organization. Lack of local TV deals in 2026 for #Brewers and 8 other MLB teams highlights the massive financial gap between baseball's haves and have-nots.https://enemyball.com/

  • 178 | Post-Winter Meetings Rundown
    Dec 16 2025

    Scott Boras spewed his lame limericks about Tarik Skubal at the Winter Meetings while the #Tigers solidified the backend of the bullpen, re-signing Kyle Finnegan and adding future Hall-of-Famer, Kenley Jansen for good measure.


    Justin Ishbian + The Pope + New Stadium = Holy Trinity of #WhiteSox news stories.


    With EVERYONE besides Dansby Swanson on expiring contracts after 2026, the #Cubs must go all-in next year. But will work stoppage paranoia and artificial budget constraints doom the season before it begins?


    William Contreras made some *interesting* choices with his new body art while the #Brewers return to their roots with powder blue road jerseys.

  • 177 | Emmanuel Clase is Asshole of the Year
    Nov 11 2025

    Facing 65-year prison sentences on gambling charges, soon-to-be former #Guardians closer Emmanuel Clase and his bullpen cohort, Luis Ortiz, earn our Asshole of the Year dishonor for 2025.

    MLB's #2 prospect, Kevin McGonigle, is tearing up the Arizona Fall League, but will he land a spot in the #Tigers' infield for Opening Day 2026?

    It's certainly not ideal, but the #WhiteSox had no choice but to pay Luis Robert Jr. $20M.

    The #Cubs and Shota Imanaga just can't quit each other, putting the There Are No Bad One-Year Deals mantra to the test.
