QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Aug 2, 2016 -> 03:44 PM) Doesn't make a difference when you put them on. Once they're cleared, you can negotiate with anyone. And if you can always take guys back and put them back through if they're claimed anyway. Talking about guys who will get claimed. They can only go though twice as far as I know.

Melky and Robertson dont have a chance to clear waivers. But they should make it to a contender you could maybe work something out with. Would be wise to monitor injuries and perhaps delay putting them through. Shields will 200% clear. Hes the only chip here.

That first Raw hour was absolutely dreadful.

Since none of our guys are up after this year, I'm actually pretty happy Hahn wasn't allowed to or just didn't trade anyone.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Aug 1, 2016 -> 03:41 PM) Not really. It's Tilson Well we got rid of Duke too. So Purke presumably as well.

Keith Law just stopped short of calling Bickford worthless.

Well espn just said the Yankees are "all-in" on Chris Sale.

QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 1, 2016 -> 01:11 PM) What is the keith law tweet? All I see is kenwo4life from sss going after him with the lamest regurgitated crap. He was just live on espn b****ing about Mike Sirotka, haha.

Keith Law still bitter about Mike Sirotka

QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Aug 1, 2016 -> 12:18 PM) If that's their play that's a pretty big gamble considering he's due ~$20 million in salary over the next 2+ years. Not if you trade Shields for him.

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Aug 1, 2016 -> 12:05 PM) These should just be moved to the Shields trade, no? They just got Hill. Not saying they still couldn't get Shields but we could be moving other parts.

QUOTE (shipps @ Aug 1, 2016 -> 11:57 AM) Reddick and Hill to Dodgers per Rosenthal So Puig probably gone...but not for Shields?

QUOTE (FT35 @ Aug 1, 2016 -> 09:56 AM) I'm sure it was just a fabrication of my mind. I occasionally see random paragraphs of text on my computer screen for no reason at all. I read and comprehend the content that is pertaining to today's events even though they do not exist. Hey...gotta go, I am going to eat this banana that just popped out of my DVD drive. I'll make sure to post more delusional content later. Lol

Someone would have retweeted or copy pasted that if Rosenthal said it or at least mentioned it on twitter elsewhere. Search turns up nothing. Don't know what you saw.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 09:49 AM) Yeah, the thing with Duke is, he is one of the guys you don't have to move just to move...because you're going to need pen arms next year and he would be just as attractive at next year's deadline as this year's (if not more). Maybe they actually like this guy, because there was no reason to give Duke away. Eh, we know Duke is smoke and mirrors. He could easily have an ERA over 5 by this time next year. I think this was certainly the right time to trade him.

I like this return.

American markets at all time highes. Footsie (London) straight up since Brexit. Even the f***ing German Dax above pre brexit levels. Still waiting for this George. I need to make some money. You promised.

""""""Stupid""""""

Hillary Clinton accepts 25 million dollar donation from George Soros, the same day she pledges to get the money out of politics. Soxtalk will defend this.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 28, 2016 -> 09:28 PM) Ha no but you can't just go up there swinging at everything he throws. You aren't going to hit it above the waist, so you might as well just swing if it's low or let it go Right. Melky was swinging at stuff not even close.

Eaton misplays yet another ball

Awful awful at bat by melky regardless

Wikileaks releases voicemails of the DNC. Good god guys get some security, any security. Hope there's more to it than when Trumps voicemail got hacked.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 01:32 PM) i would think if anything he will pull from the Trump support more than the Clinton support. Trump polls better in 4 way polls than h2h vs Hillary.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jul 25, 2016 -> 08:35 PM) Something something Republicans fall in line. (post convention bump plus a bad Clinton week the week before, numbers will normalize after dnc) To quote CNN of all places, the post convention bump disn't really exist anymore until Trump and Trump had perhaps the biggest bump ever. That said polls aren't statistically relevant until end of September-ish. I guess that means analysis like Silvers predictions would be a lot lot better to look at, but you're also not going to find me go to bat for him ever either.
