QUOTE (jhonnydanks @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 09:22 AM) I'd say a delayed start time by an hour with a window to play in the 2-5 range. Wishful thinking as I'd like to take full advantage of the open bar. don't stop get it get it.

QUOTE (Stan Bahnsen @ Apr 1, 2014 -> 10:19 AM) Got a first good look at our bullpen yesterday. Damn, we got some chunkers. Cleto, Veal and Belly (if that nickname hasn't been hung on Belisario yet, let me be the first) should get an Old Country Buffet endorsement. Then you've got Paulino in the rotation, and EJohnson might be dangerous with the MLB meal per diem. Even Lindy looks to be porking out. Discuss. 2009 White Sox had Bartolo Colon and Bobby Jenks alone. That's not even mentioning guys like Contreras, Sweaty Freddy, Pena etc. Even Clayton Richard was a big boy. (although he was built like a tank)

Haha, I think the title itself is going to get some people. Then you read the post...

QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 31, 2014 -> 09:25 PM) Don Baylor caught the first pitch from Vlad Guerrero, twisted his knee and had to helped off the field. Go Angels. http://www.mobypicture.com/user/henry_bouldin/view/16728111 I was going "aaaaaaaugh" and then laughing at the same time. I'm going to hell.

Congrats Rock! And I think it's cool you named him after Montell Jordan and Thomas Robinson. Playa, playas they are.

QUOTE (SCCWS @ Mar 31, 2014 -> 06:59 PM) DeAza was greater. He is still better at baseball than Viciedo. QUOTE (bmags @ Mar 31, 2014 -> 08:05 PM) Mr. April Nice.

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 28, 2014 -> 07:14 AM) I would rank the Bad Boyz Pistons, 90s Knicks, and 90s Heat before Reggie Miller and the Pacers. Just me? I always loved Reggie's antics against the Knicks and Spike during those days. John Starks for example is much higher on my personal hate list than Miller.

Thank god I'll be off work. First sox opener I'll get to watch in two years.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Mar 24, 2014 -> 12:10 PM) @JayZawaski670: Barry Rozner reporting Patrick Kane's injury as a Grade 1 MCL sprain. The least serious I'm assuming. (correct me if I'm wrong ptatc) He should be well rested for the playoffs. Also I love Jeremy Morin. Kid really deserves to be up here.

This is the type of stuff I can definitely get use to (and love) with Rick Hahn. Just a brilliant creator with contracts.

QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 19, 2014 -> 11:04 AM) I'm telling you---Axelrod will not be denied. Tanking for Daz Cameron!

Well.. at least he can take a walk.

Artificial. Intelligence. *lifts eyebrows*

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 11, 2014 -> 10:51 AM) There's your major trade deadline move for the Hawks. Hopefully he's with Hossa and Kane is with Toews.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 11, 2014 -> 10:42 AM) http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2014/03/11/que...er-this-season/ Outstanding. Hawks brass is really high on this kid.

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Mar 11, 2014 -> 10:23 AM) I didn't know free agency even started. Started today son.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 11, 2014 -> 10:04 AM) It is a fairly regular phenomenon for 18 year olds who throw 100, to peak there and never throw that hard again. Or to totally flame out and/or have injuries. (Colt Griffin, Clint Everts etc.) Usually I'm the type who loves to take the risk on potential phenoms in the draft (Nevin Griffith for example) especially when picking later or a comp. pick, but when your making the #3 overall pick, you better make damn sure you do your research on the player. I hope the sox are doing their homework now on these prospects. If they believe he'll hold up and is just too good to pass on (Chris Sale), take him... and pray.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 10, 2014 -> 08:27 PM) Dallas Stars' Rich Peverly, who has had issues with an irregular heartbeat, collapsed on the bench tonight and was rushed to the hospital. They say he is conscious and will be OK, but scary stuff. The game was postponed. http://deadspin.com/cbj-stars-game-current...rley-1540912374 His teammate, Alex Chiasson, also went to the hospital for panic attacks. Just a scary situation all around.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Mar 10, 2014 -> 11:55 AM) Do we need an official club? I had no idea Marty and I agreed on something. QUOTE (iamshack @ Mar 10, 2014 -> 11:56 AM) It is the only thing Marty and I agree on. Haha, I agree with him in some instances than most here on certain topics/players. This happens to be one of them as well.

Such a joke. It should be John Danks running away with it.

NOOOOO!

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Mar 10, 2014 -> 06:58 AM) I'm probably more in favor of trading Viciedo than anybody here, and even I don't see Saunders as being a good return. Your not alone, and I agree 100% about Saunders.

QUOTE (farmteam @ Mar 9, 2014 -> 07:31 PM) Speaking of Kane's goals, that was a pretty slick one there in the first period. That was his first even strength goal this season with Handzus as his center. Mind boggling to think about. Seems like Leddy has outplayed Oduya for quite a while as well. Hjalmarsson has been doing work on that pair.
