QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Dec 16, 2015 -> 02:53 PM) I'd be ok with Cespedes on 4/5 years. He may get more depending on how many and who is involved. I'd guess that Cespedes is 32 or 33 years old - not 30 like he claims.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Dec 16, 2015 -> 02:54 PM) I think the Reds/Dodgers need to be separated. The Dodgers are clearly winners in this trade. Their involvement in it at all is really perplexing. Jeff Shaw - Paul Konerko

Maybe it stems from the fact that Puig and Abreu are hanging out recently in Cuba. Maybe Abreu wants Puig on the team.

I enjoy Hawk's exuberance but he can wear on people with his umpire complaints and sheer homerism.

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 14, 2015 -> 01:19 PM) Andre Ethier QUOTE (Knackattack @ Dec 14, 2015 -> 01:23 PM) This is some one I would target.. float LA a nice prospect and maybe they take LaRoche with him They better take Laroche and Danks both then. Ethier's salary is a $38 million dollar (including year 3 buyout) anchor.

I wonder how real the "30" that Cespedes claims to be, really is.

Interesting to note: Cats are the only animal/mammal that can actually get cured of diabetes.

I think a good rule of thumb is to use spoiler tags the first week it's in the theater. Yes, even in this thread.

Watched Trainwreck last night. It was okay. I still don't like Amy Schumer, but I don't regret watching the movie. PS, I think if Cena and other guys have to get naked, so should she.

I wonder if they'd take Robertson for Schwarber...

Watched Grand Budapest Hotel. I really enjoyed it. 4 stars out of 5

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Dec 11, 2015 -> 03:25 PM) With the unbalanced schedule, the NL East/Central teams have an advantage over the West teams for the 2 WC spots. I wouldn't be surprised if one of Pitt, StL, or the Cubs actually misses the playoffs in 2016.

QUOTE (thxfrthmmrs @ Dec 11, 2015 -> 03:21 PM) I don't think Eaton is sniffing nearing Heyward in HR totals going forward. You'd think so, but Heyward hasn't really repeated his 2010/2012 seasons in recent years. We'll see, I guess.

QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Dec 11, 2015 -> 03:07 PM) Jayson Heyward in 2015: 79 runs/13 HR/60 RBI/.293 BA/.359 OBP/.797 OPS Adam Eaton in 2015: 98 runs/14 HR/56 RBI/.287 BA/.361 OBP/.792 OPS https://twitter.com/ChuckGarfien/status/675403766129102849 Chuck Garfien must read Soxtalk.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Dec 11, 2015 -> 11:48 AM) I like advanced stats but in this case I'd agree with the traditional types. He's a really good player. 5-6 WAR player usually. He's an excellent defender and baserunner. If I'm paying $200 million though, I need you to hit for power. His defending and baserunning will seriously regress over the life of that contract. What's left is a borderline starter with a top 10 contract.

19 HR 68 RBI 17 SB 72 BB 123 K .268 AVG .353 OBP .431 SLG .784 OPS Averages in career. He hasn't hit more than 14 HR in 4 seasons. Basically his career averages are close to Adam Eaton's 2015 season.

Heyward is so overrated. His stats and hitting stance/swing do not translate to long term statistical success. He will never live up to whatever massive contract that he acquires.

QUOTE (ypres @ Dec 11, 2015 -> 10:31 AM) Thank you. I just realized that I put "yres" instead of "ypres." That's been fixed.

QUOTE (ewokpelts @ Dec 9, 2015 -> 09:11 AM) Laroche is a born again idiot that said he's not here to play the game,but to spread the gospel. No dickf***, you are getting paid 25 million to hit a f***ing baseball. Once he said that crap, I wanted him gone in a flash. This isn't the Filibuster. Criticizing someone's religion or lack there of is not a PHT forum topic.
