Cubs and White Sox fans just won't stop fighting each other
CUBS VS WHITE SOX
31 August 2021
Warning: Both the videos contain explicit language.
Over the weekend, Cubs and White Sox fans went at it in the stands and security had their hands full to say the least. The video above is almost 5 minutes long, and you're able to see all these different fights breaking out in the stands. The video below is shorter, but the camera is much closer to the action. I guess asking Chicago baseball fans to get a long was too much of an ask.
This whole thing started cause the woman in blue kept tryna start the wave and nobody wanted to so someone threw a beer at her. A whole 2 different dudes started fighting then MAYHEM happened Lmaooo https://t.co/uhDpNP7npu pic.twitter.com/yeTIZE61dJ

One of the fans claims that a fight was started when a woman tried to start the wave, someone through a beer at her, and it was on. People have very strong opinions about the wave, clearly. The other angle of the fight is below.

Rumors have been swirling in recent days about the possible reunion between the Astros and Carlos Correa. Correa made the trade sound like an unlikely possibility on Wednesday, but now, it appears it's happening.
According multiple sources, including MLB.com's Brian McTaggart, the Astros are trading for Correa.

With third baseman Isaac Paredes likely unavailable until next season, this move makes a lot of sense for a team trying to win a World Series this season.
Correa has already agreed to play third base, with Jeremy Pena remaining at shortstop. Carlos is guaranteed $96 million through the next three seasons.
Correa is slashing .267/.319/.386 this season, not exactly the numbers we expect from Correa. But he was terrific in 2024, so hopefully a change of scenery sparks more production.
However, a deeper look at the numbers shows Correa has been much better as of late. He's slashing .308/.373/.421 with 2 homers and 9 RBIs over his last 30 games.
What did the Astros give up?
Details of the trade are finally being released. The Twins are paying $33 million of Correa's remaining $103.42 million contract.
The Minnesota Twins are paying a whopping $33 million of Carlos Correa's remaining $103.42 contract.
