Lots to catch up on as the Milwaukee Brewers won the 2026 World Series in five games.

The Chicago White Sox hired Matt Roffe to lead MLB Draft efforts.

The White Sox parted ways with John Schriffen, opening the TV play-by-play announcer role to an interesting list of candidates.

The Chicago Sun-Times put a Chicago Bears stadium rendering in Bridgeport on its cover, but hours later Crain's Chicago reported a deal is almost done for the Bears in Arlington Heights. Why do we keep hearing about the Bears having a new stadium in Bridgeport?

In Josh Nelson's upcoming Offseason Plan Project on Sox Machine, he technically shares seven players who are not returning, but four are grouped into two boats: backup catchers and inefficient (hurt) relievers.

From this exercise, Josh and Jim Margalus agree that left field needs further discussion about how it plays out in 2027. Also, what to do about Andrew Benintendi? If he doesn't hit well early in the season, is he at risk of being waived?
