Ha just as I post that, we score. Congrats to Wilson on his first TD catch.

The definition of a game strictly for fantasy owners.

Alexei and LaRoche are the only ones I feel will regress (especially Alexei on both sides) as far as position players. The others probably won't and if they do (say Melky for example) it won't be much. Just my opinion though.

QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Dec 15, 2014 -> 09:53 AM) Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal 3m3 minutes ago Sources: #Yankees close to signing free-agent 3B Chase Headley to four-year deal. Looks like it's done according to Kaplan. 4 years 52 million. Heyman saying same number.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Dec 15, 2014 -> 10:11 AM) 14% of MLB players supposedly have ADD and have clearance to "treat" that with a banned substance. It's 3 times the average percentage of 27 year old adults with the condition. Hmmm... didn't we just sign a guy that is part of that 14% of players to be our DH?

QUOTE (Reddy @ Dec 15, 2014 -> 10:06 AM) Well yeah, there's a reason Juan Lagares is the best CF in the game. Did Mike Trout really suck that I'm not aware of?

QUOTE (Reddy @ Dec 15, 2014 -> 09:49 AM) .671 OPS over three seasons at AAA, albeit young for the level. Danny Santana has a career .708 OPS in the minors then got called up and put up a .824 OPS in 430 PA. Whether that is the outliner or the norm, there have been a ton of players who have over achieved in the bigs. Sanchez might not be average, but I'm willing to find out first instead of writing him off. He tends to settle down after he reaches a level the following year. I'm one of his biggest fans here (love Micah too though, bigger upside) so I believe he will succeed. He'll probably be one of the better fastball hitters on this team already.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Dec 15, 2014 -> 09:43 AM) There's not a world in which Carlos Sanchez should ever be considered " solid" Let's wait until he actually plays a full season shall we? Unless the 104 career PA was enough for you to make that judgment. This isn't Dayan Viciedo we're talking about here. This is assuming Micah isn't ready of course.

Max is going to take a serious discount to pitch for us cause he loves the white sox and stuff.

QUOTE (Al Lopez's Ghost @ Dec 14, 2014 -> 11:42 PM) It's after 11:30. What's up, Hahn? For the late night crew, this is heaven for us.

QUOTE (hi8is @ Dec 14, 2014 -> 11:20 PM) 3rd active player... They've had others too. Ozuna Manny Even Rowand had some speculation Cordero, Jimenez, Canseco etc.

QUOTE (bmags @ Dec 14, 2014 -> 10:00 AM) Since the plethora of moves is reminding me so much of 2005, I'm hoping Ynoa takes the roll of bizarro Jenks. Not so much closer, but finds himself a dominating reliever as a sox, and makes his way up in July as a shut down reliever just in time. Agreed. With his size and stuff I'll take a lesser version of Betances anyday.

I usually go to about 5-10 a year but have admittedly been slipping to 1-2 games the last two years. Hopefully I'll pick that number back up this year. I'm going to one for sure with coworkers (go to one every year with them as a tradition) so hopefully more to come.

One of the better pitch framers in the game. He isn't nearly as bad as he was last year but he isn't nearly as good as the year before that. A ton of potential though and the era of elite catchers is slowly dying. He is better than Flowers for sure, but like Shark, I wouldn't be trading an Anderson, Montas, Danish etc. type spect for him.

QUOTE (daggins @ Dec 14, 2014 -> 07:52 AM) All he has to do is update the name. Position is still correct. Not really a knock on Melky its just the ALC has a lot of good LFers I'd take '14 Melky over Cespedes personally, but I won't argue at all with those who'd take Cespedes. (especially if they value his defense more than Melky's bat) At least it's a hell of alot closer than the Viciedo argument.

Might wanna update that LF ranking.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 14, 2014 -> 12:49 AM) And that should be about it I'm sure as far as FA signings... but booooooo.

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Dec 14, 2014 -> 12:35 AM) I'm drunk and this is awesome news So am I.

Nice. I think Cabrera is overrated here, but there is no doubt this was the right move.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Dec 13, 2014 -> 03:22 AM) .....and Anderson and Montas and Danish? Frazier isn't THAT good. I will say he is an underrated player, but his value will probably not get any higher.

QUOTE (Knuckles @ Dec 11, 2014 -> 11:06 PM) Why on earth would Mariners even want Vicideo? Because he continuously lights them up every time we play them.

What I like about this deal is Jennings is still young. Fits that age group Hahn was talking about. I like Rienzo, but this guy will certainly help us alot more. Hope he isn't effected too much mentally from that line drive.

QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Dec 11, 2014 -> 09:00 AM) Definitely hinges on who they get back but nonetheless this is great for the Sox. A K machine. Porcello is not a K machine. He is however still only 25 (will be 26 in two weeks)
