ICHIRO is f***ing tits! / this fgucking theread!

Havent been in this s***ty thread in like a year but I'm fuccccked up son! Got like 4 numbers and going to sum chicks house from one of the numbers I got... idk.. s*** is too crazy, feel like I'm f***ing young again and even though I still am, 26 is getting up there. s*** is crazy! Not fuclking "hammered" per say but good drunk. Love you b****jes. See youz tomorrow.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Aug 17, 2013 -> 08:20 PM) The return for Frasor still looks pretty awesome. How does the return for Santos (who actually was a closer for us) look? You gotta take every trade with hindsight. QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Aug 17, 2013 -> 08:41 PM) Why is it funny? I think some of us just feel uncomfortable when Reed is out there. He's good most of the time but he's rarely 1-2-3 nails in the coffin. You gotta be able to appreciate that point of view. Not every closer is going to be Rivera, 02-04 Gagne, etc. How do we know if Webb is going to do what Reed has done? Hell, Reed was the more promising prospect in the minors and put up better stats. As much as I like Webb (who I believe can turn into a tick below rookie version of Bobby Jenks) he's a complete wildcard. Kid was a bit of a headcase mentally at times as a young starter. Glad he's found his niche and is succeeding though.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Aug 17, 2013 -> 08:41 PM) Dunn and Konerko neck and neck at .241. This might interest me who finishes with a higher average as the season winds down here.

OT: But that kid Dariel Alvarez has been flat out raking.

QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Aug 17, 2013 -> 05:35 PM) Hard for me to disagree with you. Excited to see what Webb brings. Lets hope Addison doesn't get totally exposed the rest of the year so we can trade him for other young talent. I'm probably Webb's biggest fan (liked him since his draft year and was my sleeper pick for two years) but I find it funny people are adamant on trading Reed who is only six months older than Webb, has major league experience and is cost controlled. Reed's been a closer for years. No doubt in my mind he's good enough and has the mindset (who knows with Webb).

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 16, 2013 -> 09:14 PM) Grand slam for Engel He stole home as well.

Wendelken: 1 IP, 1 H 1 R 0 ER 0 BB 1 SO in his high A debut.

QUOTE (Dizzy Sox @ Aug 12, 2013 -> 08:23 PM) Maybe the shock of walking twice in one game was too much for him to handle. And did Snodgress and Molina switch names or something? Would think those pitching lines would be reversed.

4th complete game of the year and he only has 8 wins.. unreal.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Aug 12, 2013 -> 01:01 AM) Rondon, Kolen, Gatewood. I want one of those 3. God I'm tired of people calling Carlos Rodon "Rondon." Secondly, still way too early to judge right now. Other than Rodon, it's still pretty much wide open. A guy like Beede, Toussaint, (who I'm personally high on) Turner, Jackson, Burdi, Cederoth, Hoffman etc. could all sneak in the top 3-5 discussion.

I like how pitting Alexei in the 3 spot suddenly changes him into a completely different player. (namely the power)

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Aug 9, 2013 -> 04:31 PM) Gavin Floyd wears 34. Don't think we can give it to him yet Holy crap, totally forgot that guy was still technically here. That's how much I've been following this team.

Bump. MUCH better banner boys.

QUOTE (flavum @ Aug 9, 2013 -> 02:56 PM) Ahh-vee-sah-eel May I call you Avi? Garcia will wear 26. He'll have to wait for 34, unless he doesn't care. Damn you whitesox. There isn't even a player on the 40 man wearing that number. Would help alot of people who already have #34 Garcia jerseys too.

Trade is growing on me as far as the player, but it had to be done financially. Should be interesting to see where the sox end up with now in the draft pick standings down the stretch.

I still would like to see Garcia get the development time down there to still work on his plate discipline, regardless if Rios goes or not.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Aug 7, 2013 -> 12:32 PM) Secondly, Quintana never really accomplished anything before his positive test, so it's not anywhere near the same as Braun or ARod, who won MVP awards while on PEDs. QUOTE (SoxAce @ Aug 7, 2013 -> 12:38 PM) Correct, although it won't (or hasn't if they did or didn't know) stop people on this board for mentioning the positive test, even as a 17 year old kid. Case in point. QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Aug 7, 2013 -> 12:54 PM) Not to mention, the Sox have Quintana and Flowers on the roster who have both tested positive. Just funny.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 7, 2013 -> 11:24 AM) Same deal here, actually. He was one of the reasons you got TO that championship game, though! No he wasn't. I picked him up very late in the year when I was already like 12-1. Didn't start him for two games (that's when he exploded) so I decided to start him in the playoff game and he bombs (as did the kicker Tynes and his 0 point game) AND I just lost by three f***ing points.. THREE! But yea.. still doesn't top Rowand's 0.9

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 7, 2013 -> 08:18 AM) Danario is cursed. Screw Alexander. That asshole cost me a f***ing chance at the championship in fantasy last year with his 0 point performance. *cue noone cares about your fantasy team squad* Karma is a b****.. All kidding aside, that is a bad break for the Chargers. That team definitely needs the help as it is.

Hawk has an iPad?!?! Technology?! Hawk?!?!?!

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 5, 2013 -> 04:26 PM) Yeah, if you cut him, that'll teach him the lesson not to have a concussion. Or at least to toughen up and not report the symptoms. Yea, probably the only receiver on this team who actually has the balls to catch the football in the middle of the field and won't get alligator arms. (Marshall gets a pass, cause well.. no explanation needed) No beef with Cutler's college buddy at all.

Possible 11 game losing streak tonight (most since 1956) possible 30 games under .500 (40-70) and possible 11 quality starts in a row resulting in a loss. (unheard of) Oh, and there's that A-Rod thing and the media circus. Should be fun!

Torii Hunter. Notorious sox killer in more ways than one. Haven't seen us lose 10 in a row in a long time. Whatever pick the sox end up with (Rodon, Gatewood, Beede, Hoffman, Toussaint, Jackson, etc.) I hope they use every source of scouting they have to make sure that is the right call for that prospect to succeed here.
