  1. He has great strike zone recognition and walked nearly 10% of his ABs in AAA. A lack of walks in the big leagues would because he never punishes pitchers.
  2. Yeah; because that's something this team is lacking... ha
  3. Twins gave up the pick instead of paying for maeda.
  4. You're right, I'd say to contribute what they match. No point in locking up more under those terms without the incentive. That said, if you're not going to bother putting it to work elsewhere, then I'd agree with you and just max it out.
  5. Sorry, the ruling wasn't released by the arbiter yet; not that the case hadn't been seen. Poorly worded.
  6. lol, again... Joc Pederson's hearing had not even started when MLBIntel tweeted out that he lost the hearing.
  7. lol He posts things, and then deletes them when they're wrong. There was a 50/50 chance he was right. The funny thing is Joc's hearing started after that guy tweeted out that he already lost.
  8. ? A lot of social media directors for companies are low level marketing interns. I'm not sure if that's how the White Sox work in particular, but that is a pretty normal structure for some larger companies.
  9. Yeah; like they aren't interns that are just having a bit of fun on social media.
  10. 1. There's nothing weird about them shutting down a fake rumor by comparing it to Tacos. 2. Why do people continue to talk about this trade as if it's actually real and possible? Make it stop, SOXTALK. Make it stop!
  11. I don't give much public financial advice, but I realistically see Tesla with a 1 trillion dollar market cap within the next 6-8 years. I am pretty heavily invested into Tesla though. I am a firm believer in not only the social move towards renewable, but also a big believer in the battery technology and loved him moving much of the production in house. With further growth in the Chinese market, and his contracts in Germany for driverless cabs, the expansion is coming fast. Efficiencies on the production side need to increase, but I'm invested into Tesla for the battery technology - not for cars.
  12. What is bold about making up things on twitter and repeating it endlessly? People do this stuff for the attention; the attention that they're being given right now.
  13. I'm like 99% sure this is another Soxtalk poster running this account
  14. Huge Valley fan, just not a great season. Salukis blow too, obviously.
  15. Memphis is a ton of fun to watch. Since Russell left OKC and went with Harden, I was on the market for a new secondary team. With Ja joining Memphis, I decided to add them as my second team. Been a lot of fun.
  16. Absolutely nothing. I don't even believe Paxson is done done.
  17. You're missing the point though. Again, Jay Williams had no legal grounds to stand on. The PA had no leverage - he violated his contract, and in turn he voided it. Now the Bulls surely had some motivation to negotiate based for PR reasons alone, but the Bulls could have cut him the day he got hurt and never paid him another dime and there would have been nothing the PA or the courts could do about it. The Bulls chose to not only place him on IR and pay him for the duration of that year, but they chose to give him 3 million for the remaining two years on his deal. There is no way to spin that negatively, and it was certainly loyalty showed by Jerry and basketball towards Jay. He was a bitter asshole after that for years.
  18. Here's the literal quote defining that what the Bulls did was not required, and was well beyond what most would have done: Riding a motorcycle violates the standard NBA contract, and the Bulls could have terminated Williams' deal after the accident June 19. Instead, they put the No. 2 pick in the 2002 draft on injured reserve and continued to pay him. The Bulls not only paid him for the duration of that season - paying him his full pay - they then gave him an additional 3 million dollars during the off-season. The Bulls were loyal and took care of Jay Williams; regardless of how you want to portray Reinsdorf.
  19. He owed him zero dollars; he violated the terms of the deal. The Bulls literally owed him nothing. They gave him millions. Insurance paid for nothing - insurance wouldn't cover a player who violated his contract. Insurance would only cover that player if that player was legally owed the money.
  20. The audacity of this guy saying basketball knows no loyalty. Jerry pays the guy for his contract that he didn't owe due to Jay Williams violating the terms by riding the motorcycle... then 10 years later, Jay is ripping the Bulls publicly despite them taking care of him when they didn't have to.
