Buehrle>Wood

WHAT A GAME BY FORCIER! THAT PROGRAM IS SURE TO DO SOME DAMAGE THE NEXT FEW YEARS UNDER RICHROD WITH TALENT LIKE TATE AND DENARD

This game is a joke.

He's got a bad contract and they want him out of there. If we want him we should give up NOTHING of value, especially nothing close to Santiago. Think of trading Alex Rios, except this case is for an arguably worse player with a worse contract.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFan05 @ Oct 19, 2013 -> 12:51 AM) Reds shopping Brandon Phillips. Beckham, Santiago, and Webb for Phillips? That would be horrible for us.

Let's hope not

QUOTE (ozzfest @ Oct 18, 2013 -> 05:29 PM) I should have made myself more clear. Apologies. I'm talking about being the BIG spender. Dye and AJ were great under the radar moves. Every team HAS to hit on those sometimes. BUT, I'm talking about unloading big money and being right. We've only ever unloaded twice pn a free agent. Albert Belle and Adam Dunn. One was a monster, the other not so much yet. Don't really think there's a track record to look at.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Oct 18, 2013 -> 05:34 PM) Did anyone tune in? Yeah, nothing new to hear.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Oct 18, 2013 -> 03:10 PM) Congrats! Now go to the nudey bar!!!! Haha thanks. If you don't mind me asking, are you trying to get into a trading group in Chicago? If so, which one?

I just got a job doubling my salary.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Oct 18, 2013 -> 02:58 PM) Egwu could be playing himself into the NBA if he keeps developing. He's got the body for it. Sounds like he's worked a ton on his offensive game over the summer. edit: from the highlights, wow is Darius Paul huge. Well he definitely dominated last night. But hard to tell if it was more him or the weak front court.

Rudy Jaramillo makes the most sense. Also, reminder that we can bring in a second hitting coach under the new rules. I want the primary guy being the guy, but would not mind seeing someone like Frank to help a specific player (Tank) or Omar Vizquel under the guise of a hitting coach to help Alexei's focus.

First key move of the offseason seems done. Time for step two. McCann is the only top notch catcher on the market, and would instantly turn our weakest position to our strongest. It makes perfect sense. Anything under 70 million and it is a must.

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 18, 2013 -> 04:59 AM) Rangers-bound, IMO His market is impossible to predict but if he goes elsewhere for under 70 million I will be pissed.

I think it's time for the McCann mega thread.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 18, 2013 -> 03:56 AM) I think we should go after Corey Hart. He's not going to cost a lot of money, so not a big risk. HartTalk.com

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Oct 18, 2013 -> 03:49 AM) Santiago and Beckham? Would be really bad of the Sox.

Can't wait to watch Escape from Tomorrow tomorrow. Looks like the most bizarre movie ever and the trailer was very haunting.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Oct 18, 2013 -> 03:31 AM) For the naysayers: would you rather pay this money to Granderson or Abreu? Think of the next several years. Don't think there's many if any naysayers on this.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Oct 18, 2013 -> 03:56 AM) Anyone thinks he reads Soxtalk? Mere seconds after my info 105 guests reading this topic...hi media.

Rosenthal just reported the Sox have him during the playoff game.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFan05 @ Oct 18, 2013 -> 02:20 AM) Was Puig this hyped out of Cuba? No don't think Puig was hyped at all. I forget what the reason was, perhaps that he never performed in front of American scouts. Dodgers knew something no one else though and offered big money.

Illinois basketball scrimmage tonight. I'm watching online. Ray Rice looks really good as does Jaylon Tate. The rest not so much. EDIT: Egwu too is definitely bigger and better.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFan05 @ Oct 18, 2013 -> 01:10 AM) Marlins beat writer says it's Texas. Uh oh?

Hot fire

Awesome. Good price too.
