Paul "Dizzy" Trout and son Steve "Rainbow" Trout.

Manny is that you ?

Smart also involved spending money and when the bottom line is all important we know why the Sox did not venture into those waters when the opportumity was there.

Hallelujah ! A person who makes sense. Nova fills a specific role that not many 1 year starters could have unless you wanted Shields back. To sign injured pitchers from last year or allow young guys who can't even get guys out in AAA into the rotation places an unnecessary burden on the young arms in the rotation and in the BP. Could Nova suck ? Sure he can but he's a more likely candidate to eat innings than those others.

He was taken out and Zack Thompson brought in . Promptly got a DP ball. Jones hurt ? Minaya got released because he was pitching poorly didn't he ?

I don't think Jones has got a single batter out in his last 2appearances and given up 5 runs. ERA 16.62 now.

And that lack of talent assessment is most likely due to not paying the right talent assessors nor paying to extend them into the areas that need to be reached.

Well we call Reinsdorf cheap and maybe 100 yrs from now someone will look ai payroll and also determine he wasn't cheap. But there are other ways the owner can be cheap.

Great to see Crow get a shutout. 48 saves. Perlini with 8th goal in seven games after sitting for 4 straight. Hawks record is amazing considering they have given up the 2nd most goals in the NHL while Ottawa, who has given up just a few more, might be the worst team in the NHL. 5th straight win.

Indians will sign Cargo.

Vitamins and 5 Hour Energy ?

He could still be called up before the season starts technically without burning an option couldn't he ? Who gets the mystery injury ? Palka with the hammy seems likely.

As would just about anyone who had only 173 plate appearances across 3 levels in his first taste of pro ball. You expected differently ?

I'd take .297

Kids going to finish this one . Luis Gonzalez, Collins, Madrigal, Mendick, Rivera and Robert all in for defense for the top of the 7th.

Can't argue with the results when he bats cleanup. He is hitting .407 this spring.. May be just a confidence thing. Throw him in at clean up to say we beleive in you kiddo.

I like it but put Bozo instead of the muppet to give it the all Chicago Clowns feel

You're too quick on the draw . I edited my post pretty quickly to include Lucas after a quick search to make sure.

Cease already had one too. Giolito also.

Ha You think anyone cares if your life isn't easy ? Vote ELOY !!

Anderson because hahahaha on the DFA troll comment, Moncada and Eloy.

It says he is cheap and makes up a story regarding just how cheap. Nothing anti-semitic in it. We are getting plenty of Jerry is cheap comments here also. This just takes it to a higher plain.

I found this in the responses. https://shmorts.com/f/jerry-reinsdorf-spotted-at-multiple-coinstars-in-northern-suburbs Good for some chuckles.

I know I have been arguing about the other signings not being as bad as everyone says but let me just say that I voted them an F for the entire off season but that is based on The Machado Mess. If they convert on him all the other signings no one would care about. It's the planning to get him and the failure with a ridiculous offer and lame excuses that rightly have so many upset. Machado or Harper meant so much , was so important to restoring faith in the organization that it literally depressed the majority of the fans. For that they deserve the F and also an F U.
