QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ May 11, 2017 -> 08:33 PM) Delmonico, Fulmer, Lopez, & Burdi too. Those four, Moncada, Anderson, & hopefully Rodon at some point should be enough to keep me watching regularly. Burdi's gonna be cool. I like Lopez, I'm intrigued by delmonico but expectations are very tempered, Fulmer's a wild card but I'll definitely tune in. I think you listed them in order of future value: meh+, solid, good, awesome.

QUOTE (daggins @ May 11, 2017 -> 08:04 PM) This is when we start to step in the not-fun part of the rebuild. Really get in close, get a good whiff of that rebuild. Won't be long before we have Moncada in the majors to hold our interest, not much beyond that, though.

Prey is tough, well thought out and very good.

Redrafting the 2014 draft would be a very interesting exercise.

QUOTE (bmags @ May 8, 2017 -> 03:05 PM) Beeeee-eauty He's so f***ing quick through the zone, it's crazy.

QUOTE (Sleepy Harold @ May 8, 2017 -> 02:03 PM) Charlotte Knights @KnightsBaseball 46s ROSTER MOVES: Infielder Everth Cabrera assigned back to #CLTKnights from @Intimidators. LHP Cory Luebke has retired. Roster 25. The f***? Did he get hurt? Pitched 5 decent innings since returning from extended spring training and seemed destined to be the next bullpen arm called up.

That's some of the craziest s*** I've ever seen, both of those hits were annihilated. He better hide in the clubhouse for the rest of the game, if he's in the dugout the ball will find him.

So Pace has set his legacy, he traded a s*** load of picks to move up 1 spot probably for no reason but also signed a starting QB this offseason, oh and the dude he drafted is super raw so he'll take some time to develop. So how much time does he get? Does Pace have some assurance that his job is safe for 3 more years? Trubisky is not going to pay dividends right away, it's going to take time and trading away assets is not going to help the team's record this year or next so my question is, the f*** is going on?

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Apr 27, 2017 -> 07:59 PM) I would have been good with Trubisky at 3, but giving up all those picks is insane to me. Pace is putting his career on the line by betting on Trubisky being a legit franchise QB. Hope he's right for all our sakes. This

The pressure on Trubisky is going to be insane, I have no idea how this will work.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Apr 27, 2017 -> 07:23 PM) I presume the Browns were trying to jump to #2 for Trubisky. I'm perfectly fine going QB. This is the only thing that makes sense and it's still ridiculous, you can't give up those picks when you have like 6 starters on both sides.

So, I'm confused, Pace thought San Fran would take Trubisky but if you throw picks at them they'll back off? What the f*** does that tell you?

Why can't we just be happy?

Whatever, that's just f***ing stupid. God dammit. They'll take Trubisky.

Last call, place your bets: Jamal Adams

Keep in mind also that he's about to turn 22 and has less than 1k pro PA, it's tough but you have to be patient with advanced, young talent like Yoan and Kopech, especially when it comes to K%/BB%, those come with time.

QUOTE (Big Hurtin @ Apr 27, 2017 -> 01:12 PM) Has anyone here watched any games in 4k? I know Directv has a handful of games shown in 4k during the season. I was just curious how it compared to HD. I don't have a 4k set yet, holding out until there is enough content. I haven't seen any games in 4k but IMO FPS makes a bigger difference than resolution, games at 60 FPS on MLB.tv >>>> TV broadcasts at lower FPS.

QUOTE (Brian @ Apr 26, 2017 -> 10:52 AM) Loved it. Brooklyn 99 felt like a series finale last night. Better not be. I'll blame all you jerks who didn't watch Agreed on all accounts, would have been a perfect ending, though there's supposedly 7 more episodes this season. 4 seasons and not a single not-great episode, f*** anyone who hasn't watched, f*** them right in the keister.

I approve of Swarzak.

Swarzak has some nasty stuff, my god.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 24, 2017 -> 09:20 PM) Davidson makes the field look like the fences are 200 feet He's seriously shortened up his swing, looks like he can actually turn on a fastball now.

This's been a fun game. Nice piece of bat work from Saladino.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 24, 2017 -> 08:22 PM) Please keep him off banner k thx I've been working in Photoshop this evening, the lasso tool has not found his head.

QUOTE (Tony @ Apr 24, 2017 -> 08:15 PM) Miguel Gonzalez has been a fantastic find for the Sox. I'm about ready to say he's good. He's just impressive to watch pitch.

I approve of this thread and Greg's reaction to it. Nicely done, sir, from one troll to another.
