Not sure if anyone was watching the last minute of UNC/ND, but Roy Williams misused his timeouts worse than anyone I've ever seen.

I love the flexibility/insurance he gives the Sox in terms of a 3B platoon and/or playing CF if Eaton gets hurt.

Goodness, Rose has been such a brick of late.

Justin Thomas is so much fun to watch

Refs did their best to get Miss St back in this game. Maybe the worst non-fumble call of the season.

Why is Noah in the game down 21 with 8 minutes left?

I'm pretty sure I've made this same post the last two years, but Groce has always been known as a good recruiter and good tournament coach. However, his weakness has always been in-game coaching. In a very weak Big 10 this year, if he can't make the tournament, he should be on the hot seat next year.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 30, 2014 -> 10:26 PM) Lsu got robbed. That's incredible they didn't overturn that. It was incredibly obvious his knee wasn't down when he was stretching the ball across the line.

Wow, Bulls with worst 6 minutes of their season

QUOTE (bear_brian @ Dec 24, 2014 -> 08:17 PM) At the risk of being highly redundant - since I have posted this suggestion about a dozen times now - the best available alternative for what we need on that bench - RH, infield and OF, possible platoon at 3B - is Bonifacio. He kills lefties, can even play CF. He is not an every day player, and maybe that is what he is looking for, but he fits us like a glove. I also love his ability to be a pinch runner for the team late in the game and then be able to take over at a variety of spots. He's like Leury without the AA caliber bat.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Dec 22, 2014 -> 04:07 AM) that was really the season finale of homeland? seriously? Nothing happened After a really good season, what a terrible finale.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 20, 2014 -> 06:21 PM) Looks like No Orioles as well. Another one I wonder if could jump in is the Cubs. Wouldn't make much sense for the Cubs unless they were planning on trading Baez or Russell.

Surprised the Cubs had to give a 2 year deal to Lester's buddy David Ross, but they did for a 2 year/5 million dollar contract. Wellington Castillo is a pretty nice trade chip they have now.

I know we've all heard the White Sox spin on their chances, but the Cubs organization thinks he'll become a free agent http://www.csnchicago.com/cubs/jeff-samard...bs-vs-white-sox

Yesterday during Hahn's interview with Mully and Hanley, it sounded like there was one more player they were specifically targeting and were trying to make it work money wise.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Dec 18, 2014 -> 09:42 PM) And what better way to prevent that from happening again than signing him to the Sox organization. Secret genius move by Hahn. Both off of Rienzo

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Dec 18, 2014 -> 06:05 PM) Kyle, please tell me you were a kidding. In what world does that sound like a sane decision. This is just absurd. Do they just want to encourage a Jay Cutler tirade or something. That is just awful and for everyone saying Cutler stole / robbed the Bears, please. He didn't write the contract. Or it could be a brilliant decision to try and showcase how mature he is, which in turn could help trick a team into trading for him? They know Cutler's not going to say anything stupid.

Reds could be a fit, as they still don't have a left fielder (and Hamilton's speed can help with Viciedo's lack of range in LF).

QUOTE (SoCalSox @ Dec 17, 2014 -> 04:49 AM) Why would they take Crawford if they just paid $14M per year for Melky? This was KW's possible plan before the Melky signing. The article said it's a moot point now.

Torn ACL for Jabari

QUOTE (daggins @ Dec 17, 2014 -> 04:24 AM) Probably a Sale or Q trade. I was thinking it was trading Alexei for prospects to cut payroll.

http://m.mlb.com/news/article/104180786/wh...news-conference Reading this article, I really wonder what KW's unpopular strategy would have been?

Dodgers and Cubs make a lot more sense and have more funds/prospects to deal.

Something that should help is not giving 20 starts in 2015 to the trio of Johnson, Paulino and Rienzo. They combined for an 8.35 ERA in 2014. I'm willing to guess Rodon can do better than that if someone gets hurt.
