Can I be the first to say Yasiel Puig, 2016 White Sox

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Aug 25, 2015 -> 04:00 AM) Cena vs Sting for the title is official. Okay then You mean Rollins vs Sting?

Danks had one of the best performances in franchise history in the tiebreak game. He shouldn't be close to anyone's most hated list.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Aug 25, 2015 -> 04:20 AM) His peripherals aren't as bad as his ERA and with how bad the Sox defense is, I'm inclined to believe it. He might not be the guy we traded for, but $15 million for a #3 on a 1 year deal is something a lot of teams would covet in the current market. He's been garbage. His peripherals will always look decent because he doesn't walk anyone and strikes out a decent amount. He looks overmatched in the AL.

Start the youth movement for the rest of the year. It's ok to give Eaton/Melky/Avi a day off once in a while for Trayce.

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Aug 25, 2015 -> 04:18 AM) No double play please. He tried for the 100th time this year

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 23, 2015 -> 01:33 AM) MLB just needs to end the Coors Field/Denver experiment. When the Mets are looking like the '27 Yankees, something's not right. 8 homers tonight for them in Philly

Stupid base running. Avi is horrible on the bases

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Aug 25, 2015 -> 02:08 AM) Super Hero night. White Sox are such a lame organization. Not looking forward to Faith Night?

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Aug 25, 2015 -> 03:06 AM) Not a chance that happens. Maybe he will sign with the Packers after the season to replace Nelson. He's played for ND and the Cubs...so obviously the Packers and ISIS are next

A team is nuts if they give him more than 12 or so a year.

Please get Erik Johnson some starts. Time to give up on wild card.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Aug 25, 2015 -> 02:43 AM) You still haven't really answered why you spend as much time as you do talking about the Cubs. And it hasn't just been a this season thing, for as long as I have known you on this board, you've been posting frequently about the Cubs. Honestly, cause I figured my fellow Sox fans would have good conversations about it as most Sox fans despise them.

Saladino hits an incredible amount of weak grounders

8 straight grounders for the Sox. Free Trayce!

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Aug 25, 2015 -> 02:20 AM) Why does the Cubs winning a World Series take away from your overall passion for baseball? And why over the last five or so seasons spent equal amounts of time watching Cubs baseball as you do the Sox? Again, I really want to know. I dislike watching NL baseball enough while having interest in the outcome. If I no longer worried about the outcome of NL games, it would result in less time spent watching games. For the record, I actually watch a lot less Cubs games live than I'm sure it seems. Majority of the games I just watch the highlights on mlb.com as it happens.

Why what

QUOTE (TheFutureIsNear @ Aug 25, 2015 -> 12:42 AM) Can we get Bassist back? Clearly better than shark Team that signs him should have to take Hahn.

QUOTE (Dunt @ Aug 25, 2015 -> 12:42 AM) Samardzija is such a f***ing bum. What a letdown he's been. Easily my least favorite player ever

QUOTE (farmteam @ Aug 24, 2015 -> 11:34 PM) Ballers finale was pretty boring. Yep, seemed like more of a pilot than a finale

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Aug 25, 2015 -> 12:32 AM) And it's almost shocking how some Sox fans (I'm looking at you, Fathom) are so "worried" about the Cubs seemingly every season, for no reason. What happens if they will it all this year? Next year? What is going to happen to your fandom? Can someone explain? If/when the Cubs win it all, it's going to take away a lot of the passion I have for baseball. Right now, really the only two things I care about during a season are the Sox winning and Cubs not winning. If the Cubs win it all, I can't even picture myself following the NL anymore. The Sox winning it in 2005 took away a significant amount of my worries of Cubs winning WS/Sox not winning WS during my life. I wouldn't mind not having to deal with the Cubs winning a WS though, as I think it would be a very bad day for the Sox organization in terms of future fans.

QUOTE (shipps @ Aug 24, 2015 -> 10:52 PM) I wish we were able to have that friendly banter. Although I will say its not bad all the time. There are some Cub fan's that I interact with that are cool and level headed about things and arent just looking to get a rise out of sox fans but those are the minority in my world. I mostly just ignore them though. Cubs fans have actually been less annoying than the Chicago media so far this year. The Cubs fans in the media have been horrible.

Surprised no one has said Samardzija
