Awesome Cam. Simply awesome. It's a shame people don't talk about this side of him.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Dec 27, 2016 -> 05:16 PM) Havent played since ootp 6.5, but from what I can remember there were people out there that make files and then you download them. Unless you can find someone awesome like Zoom to run a league YES! Those were the days. Me, you, wite, heads, DBAH0, Steve, BobDylan, Zoom, etc. I miss that league.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 27, 2016 -> 11:58 AM) 2016. wow Illuminati man. Always comes in 6's.

QUOTE (steveno89 @ Dec 27, 2016 -> 09:46 AM) Rutherford is not a good enough prospect to headline a Quintana deal on his own. He would be a second piece and Frazier and/or Torres (preferably Torres) would be the main headliner Rutherford is a better prospect than Frazier IMO. Might not say it yet in the BA rankings and because he got injured, but that kid is legit.

Yankees put in a claim for Robertson a couple years ago at the August waivers (Sox could've gave him to the Yanks for free if they wanted). They've always been fond of him.

QUOTE (Blackout Friday @ Dec 26, 2016 -> 10:28 PM) I'm not big on Newman, but don't hate him. Would love Diaz. You want the 26 year old non prospect who has zero power over the guy who has a plus hit tool and has increased his walk rate moving up the minors? Admittedly I don't know much about Diaz compared to the other guys in the Pirates system as a prospect guy (might be a very good defensive catcher, pitch framer, great arm, etc), but I find the love for him baffling on this site.

QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Dec 25, 2016 -> 09:47 PM) Why is this frickin guy supposed to be our prize. The guy we got Lopez blows this stooge out of the water. At least he has electric stuff and is wild. Glasnow has lame stuff and is wild.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Dec 24, 2016 -> 11:07 PM) But we have #3 if we lose, correct? That is correct.

49ers just won their game against the Rams. Browns go back to 1st overall pick now. Bears can now fall back as far as 6th pick if they win next week.

QUOTE (BRIRO2017 @ Dec 24, 2016 -> 05:23 PM) Bout tree fiddy

Jaguars upset the Titans today. Bears moved up to #3 pick in the draft.

Yea the Matt Barkley hype can officially stop now.

Barkley showing his inexperience with that pick there.

QUOTE (South Sider @ Dec 23, 2016 -> 10:29 PM) And don't the "leakers" like rabbit and WSD need authorization to actually leak the info? Otherwise I'd bet the sources would stop giving them information. This was definitely a controlled leak, for some reason or another. Maybe. I've been on Soxtalk long enough to see alot of deals and rumors/leaks either good and goes through or get shot down or damaged one way or another.

QUOTE (steveno89 @ Dec 23, 2016 -> 08:06 PM) Getting the feeling that nothing is all that close to being finalized. We haven't heard anything about talks advancing. I still have a feeling Houston finds a way to get a deal done. Maybe martes/tucker/reed/perez I'm hoping raBBit's leak didn't screw up the deal in any way. Sometimes its best to not saying anything till they say. Similar to bucket not saying anything about the Shark deal until it was close to finalized.

QUOTE (Buehrlesque @ Dec 23, 2016 -> 04:05 PM) Question to fill the time: Who would you guys rather have, Blake Rutherford or Kyle Tucker? Now that's close. I'll probably say Rutherford, but won't judge anyone who says Tucker. I think Rutherford will be that good though.

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Dec 23, 2016 -> 11:35 AM) I'd be really happy if the return was Glasnow, Rutherford, Newman and Andujar. Same. I'm not a huge fan of Andujar, but as a 4th piece, he's fine. Ideally, I'd like Keller or Meadows/Bell though.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Dec 23, 2016 -> 11:24 AM) And he talked to other people he trusts who confirmed it. :lolhitting

QUOTE (flavum @ Dec 23, 2016 -> 11:16 AM) Watching some of the pre-draft stuff last year, I was semi-hoping the Sox would have taken him at 10. Signability issues. Same reason a few other teams passed him up.

I just don't want Diaz in the deal personally. He's a catcher sure, and I know about him by far the least out of everyone else as a prospect guy (haven't heard about him or even watched him), but he's 26, pedestrian minor league numbers and no power. Not sure about his defense, but he doesn't scream "sexy" or even moderately "cute".

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 23, 2016 -> 10:48 AM) Rutherford was a top 5 talent in the draft He was talked about as high as #3. He's the goods. Serious man crush on him. Maybe less than raBBit, but its there.

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 23, 2016 -> 10:31 AM) Keller is way more valuable than Newman, IMO It's not even close as far as I'm concerned.

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Dec 23, 2016 -> 10:13 AM) Rutherford and Keller are the most exciting pieces of the names mentioned IMO. I might like Keller as much as Glasnow. Absolutely. Love Rutherford and a buddy of mine (ex scout) loves Keller. I'm not a fan at all of Diaz and Andujar is meh, but Glasnow and the other 3 are too good to pass up.

QUOTE (bmags @ Dec 23, 2016 -> 08:28 AM) Braves just a real smart extension on inciarte at 5 years 30 mill with option for sixth Yea Sherman credited Hahn/Sox for seeing what that's like with the value of Eaton. https://mobile.twitter.com/Joelsherman1/sta...306118399631360
