  1. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Dec 13, 2015 -> 10:01 PM) Oh well probably for the best longterm Absolutely
  2. QUOTE (Brian @ Dec 13, 2015 -> 02:42 AM) McCaffery robbed Watson more deserving IMO. Better numbers in games against better defenses.
  3. If Avi or Trayce get traded, I would love for Raburn to be brought in to platoon with LaRoche
  4. QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Dec 13, 2015 -> 03:44 PM) I don't think this team is trying to build for 2018. If that were the case, trade everyone now for close to MLB ready prospects. Yep Frazier and Cargo wouldn't be trade targets
  5. QUOTE (jphat007 @ Dec 13, 2015 -> 03:24 PM) I'm so old, but I miss arguing with fathom. Ugh, you again
  6. If they go into the season with LaRoche and Avi starting, they will have incredibly short leashes. Same goes with Ventura. Also no doubt they will add another quality bat in the next month.
  7. You don't trade Babe Ruth for pitching, duh
  8. QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Dec 13, 2015 -> 02:03 AM) Terrible offensive half for the Bulls against the worst defensive team in the NBA. They are almost unwatchable this year. It's disappointing to have so little interest in them so early in the season.
  9. QUOTE (bmags @ Dec 12, 2015 -> 10:34 PM) He's one of the weird cases where the national media, who can largely just check in on stats and general sentiment, have a better gauge on his value than local media, who stopped following the sox after Eaton's horrible first 2 months. Great point, feel the same with Rodon. He was incredible the last few months but received very little hype.
  10. QUOTE (bmags @ Dec 12, 2015 -> 11:27 PM) I would say that there is a strange sentiment on the score right now of not knowing that Eaton actually had a pretty good year. 15th in fWAR for hitters after the ASB
  11. QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Dec 12, 2015 -> 10:07 PM) I've seen cubs fan talk alot of crap about the sox winning the world series. Sox apparently still suck in alot of cubs fans eyes even for winning it all. And hope that I never have to see the cubs win the world series in my lifetime for how ignorant their fans can be. Sad part most are generally fans which make it worse. Cubs media is worse than Cubs fans IMO
  12. I think Soler is going to turn into a very good power player, but no way you give up Q for two wild cards
  13. QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ Dec 12, 2015 -> 09:01 PM) God help us if they win. They didn't win the WS yesterday?
  14. I wouldn't even trade Eaton for Soler and Baez
  15. Giving up Q for Cargo would be terrible
  16. QUOTE (GreenSox @ Dec 12, 2015 -> 04:27 AM) Sure he'd be a nice pick up. But for goodness sakes not for our #2 prospect. That he's blocked is supposed to lower the price, not raise it. Not only that, but the Sox also need to be careful with their pitching depth going forward. They will have one spot open after this year and the hope has to be it will be for Fulmer. Danish fading last year hurt, but it was offset by EJohnson gaining steam.
  17. So Cuddyer retires after being in a similar situation as LaRoche. Just our luck
  18. QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Dec 12, 2015 -> 03:42 AM) Thought this was going to be their first loss. Unbelievable. Amazing they won with how bad they played in the 4th quarter and the OTs. Have to think they lose tomorrow
  19. QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Dec 12, 2015 -> 01:39 AM) Those were two bad teams trying to get better, this is a really good team who has gotten a lot better. They're obviously not guaranteed anything but they're absolutely one of, if not the favorite to win it all going into the season. Yep they basically paid a lot of money for complimentary players for their roster, which makes sense.
  20. Finally had chance to listen to the Score today. Literally first thing I heard was Boers saying Sox fans should jump on the Cubs bandwagon. Ever since it became obvious the Cubs were jumping to the Score, it seems all their hosts have just become massive hypocrites and homers. I really can't see any reason to listen to that station again.
  21. QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ Dec 11, 2015 -> 09:11 PM) Griffey made one play that keeps far away from this list. +1
  22. QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Dec 11, 2015 -> 04:33 PM) Erstad in 2007 was one of the worst players I've ever seen and no stats will convince me otherwise. Remember Hawk FREAKING OUT when he twisted his ankle on a swing? Pretty sure Hawk went to the clubhouse to see what was wrong.
  23. QUOTE (Knackattack @ Dec 11, 2015 -> 07:44 PM) I think the best thing about Trayce's appearance up here was his eye at the plate. From what I saw he really was either a tremendous guesser or he could just see the ball better than almost anyone on our club. Couldn't agree more with you about his approach at the plate. Seemed he didn't get himself out for a large portion of his at bats. That's a huge difference between him and Avi. Towards the end of the year, Trayce seemed to struggle a bit with change-ups. There is really no doubt in my mind that Trayce would put up a higher WAR than Avi would for a full season.
