  1. Seems like there’s an actual chance Adley slips to the Sox tomorrow.
  2. QUOTE (Reddy @ May 23, 2017 -> 04:10 AM) I'm a good looking straight white male who does very well with the ladies, was always good at sports, was the best singer/actor/performer in my high school and college, excelled at most things I did, eagle scout, etc etc etc. All of that is thanks to my privilege of being born white, straight and male to upper middle class parents. I didn't have to work very hard at all to accomplish all the things I have, compared to the struggle any non-white, non-male person has to go through to accomplish the same things. It's a simple matter of whether or not you have empathy. Good god dude you are one arrogant dude. What does any of that have to do with being a straight white male? The only thing your privilege has allowed you to do is become a full time social justic warrior and part time terrible film maker. The fact you've confused genetically predisposed physical traits like good looks, athletic abilities, & singing voice with privilege shows just how out of touch from reality you are.
  3. QUOTE (fathom @ May 23, 2017 -> 03:03 AM) Cubs will end up trading Baez and Jimenez (plus) for Archer The Rays are two games from a wild card spot. I can't tell if you're a closet Cubs fan or just super pessimistic.
  4. QUOTE (fathom @ May 23, 2017 -> 12:54 AM) 3 for last 38 for Basabe How many K's during that stretch?
  5. QUOTE (flavum @ May 23, 2017 -> 12:45 AM) I'm a Remillard fan. Liked what I saw in the College Series. Maybe a bump up the ladder after the draft? A bunch of those Kannapolis hitters should be in high A.
  6. QUOTE (GreenSox @ May 22, 2017 -> 11:14 PM) Seems like most of the contenders are pretty solid at closer, unfortunately. Nats are a big exception, perhaps the NL Central teams too, but at this point, supply may exceed demand. Teams aren't just worried about the closer spot, they want deep bullpens with multiple high leverage relievers. I can't recall a deadline where supply exceeded demand for relievers.
  7. Great news, can't wait to get him back into the rotation.
  8. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 22, 2017 -> 02:42 AM) The next question is going to be about cash flow, with the Robert deal. Obviously we're hoping to clear a lot of salary from July-September, but how much, for example, is JR willing to eat to get a Kieboom or Soto (assuming that Robles is completely unrealistic). If the suggestion is Soto and a secondary starting pitching prospect for Herrera (control through 2018) and Cain (FA), we're going to have to eat at least 1/3rd or 1/2 to make it feasible for the Nationals. Otherwise, they'll just go to cheaper options like Herrera, Hand, Tony Watson, etc. You're assuming there is only one buyer and they'll have their pickings of the reliever market. The price for Herrera may end up being a lot higher if multiple teams are interested.
  9. QUOTE (yesterday333 @ May 22, 2017 -> 02:40 AM) wrong Kieboom..... BOOM
  10. QUOTE (bmags @ May 22, 2017 -> 02:03 AM) I think Kieboom may be that piece that matches up. But in three trades now we know we're discusse with Nats he never came up so who knows how we feel about him or Nats. But the Robles, Soto + for Drob/Jones/kieboom is crazy. But also when you get to that 45-50 range of prospects I'm going to guess there are wider variations among team scouts than we give credit for. I guess I assume we'll have to eat some money and therefore should get a pretty decent headliner given how well Robertson has pitched this year and the general value of high leverage relievers at the deadline. I think Robles is off limits for pretty much anything, but to me one of Soto or Kieboom plus a secondary piece seems just about right.
  11. QUOTE (greg775 @ May 22, 2017 -> 12:59 AM) I'll stop if I'm not explaining myself correctly. You said: "I've literally already stated repeatedly that most kids don't choose their college over its religious ideology." I say: "Most kids don't take a stand and protest a speaker. Upon looking into why they don't like the speaker, part of the reasoning is stuff the people who run their university believe as well." My bad if I think something is out of whack in the reasoning. I would like to stress if I am going against the Catholic rulebook by approving of any lifestyle between consenting adults then too bad for me. I approve of all people and all people's sexuality and beliefs. I welcome all. Nobody can stop me from that, not the Catholic rulebook. So you approve of the "homosexual lifestyle" despite you acknowledging it's a sin in your religion? Aren't you worried that you might end up in hell for supporting such a sin?!?
  12. QUOTE (bmags @ May 22, 2017 -> 01:55 AM) FWIW I do think we can get more now. But I still think we are a notch below where people are riding in trade proposals. You think one of Soto or Kieboom is unreasonable?
  13. QUOTE (greg775 @ May 21, 2017 -> 06:15 PM) Say what you want about Trump the chump and how the country despises him. It still was unique for SNL to open with "Alleluia" song ostensibly meaning thank God that Trump has allegorically hung himself and will be gone by the start of next season's SNL shows. I'm all for comedy but think that one was kind of a stretch. I still don't think Trump is going to get impeached over the Russia thing. We shall see I guess. SNL sneaking in David S. Pumpkins in a skit was pretty classic. Overall the show was not that funny again, though. My point is I thought the Alleluia thing was a bit disrespectful at this point. I could be wrong. Maybe this week is the week the Russia thing hangs Trump. Lol
  14. Would love to see a strong start from Lopez today. Would be nice if he forced his way into the major league rotation before the end of June.
  15. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 21, 2017 -> 02:57 PM) Scott Gregor reported via a source that Moncada and Robert are not really that close (compared to Ynoa). Also, that Kanny or Winston-Salem was his likely placement, but even Kanny just to get his feet wet seems too aggressive after sitting out all this time. Robert not starting in full season ball would be crazy IMO. He should definitely begin at Kannapolis and hopefully move up to Winston Salem beford the end of the season. Also, they should move up Booker to high A to clear the CF spot for him. Will be fun to follow a Fisher/Robert/Adolfo OF while it lasts.
