Oh no. Not the shoulder please

I kinda feel like smarj will do great against us.

Seems like everyone thinks Chicago is out, but this is what machines are made for. No f***ing way you could build in Nova/DC a campus that's required and deal with housing for the additions. Same with Boston. Toronto/ATL I all believe.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Sep 7, 2017 -> 04:09 PM) U of I and their CS program feeding into Amazon is a huge draw as well. Yeah, and we all know they would consider u of michigan as part of that pipeline as well. We all know the negatives for illinois and chicago, but there was a reason we were a possible olympic destination. There are few major cities that still have the capabilities in terms of land and housing that Illinois has, as well as a pipeline of great college programs. I don't think we'll get it, but what a hope to have for the city.

I hope Willy hits 4 HRs for Kanny.

Wow that's awesome.

Let's try to keep this thread away from the filibuster please. I hope all of our florida posters were able to evacuate and their homes and businesses avoid major damage.

http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/ct-...0907-story.html Could be very important for Chicago. Provides ample opportunity to retain Northwestern/UofI/UofC talent pipeline in state, and CHicago's much more decent job at adding housing makes it possible. It is a good candidate, and clearly chicago leaders feel snakebitten over the foxconn deal, even if they shouldn't. If they get this, huge boon to the city.

This is absolutely brutal https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archiv...-coates/537909/ like this:

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Sep 7, 2017 -> 09:16 AM) I listed Gillaspie as someone who could get at bats at 1B pushing Delmonico into more OF bats. Yeah Delmonico is going to be in the lineup, but they can do that by having him play 3b/1b/DH/corner outfield badly.

QUOTE (Scoots @ Sep 7, 2017 -> 09:06 AM) Yeah...pretty sure Kopech will be the ace of the staff...not the closer. Especially with what he has shown this season. Thsi is actually the first time I've seen anyone mention him as a potential closer...why? Because he throws so hard? Obviously no issues yet. Eh, it's been a knock. Mainly due to control but also prior to this season his inability to stay on the field. But I think this year answers alld oubts for me. I loved the interview last night. One, him acting like June was horrible for him and his desire to improve. And how he recognized immediately how he needed more development on changeup to work in AAA. He was good in AAA. So you know that when he means that he needs it, he means he needs it to dominate those hitters. I love that.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 7, 2017 -> 08:57 AM) I can imagine certain Soxtalk members being extremely excited about Melky returning Balta definitely.

I don't see gillaspie getting OF time. I dont think ti will be that hard to get consistent at bats, the one issue is essentially Leury is our only CFer, so Cordell / W Garcia / Liriano / Melky but unless Wily absolutely rakes I'm not sure it's that big of a deal. The others can just rotate between the DH/OF spots, give Avi spells. Teams with much more earned depth like the Dodgers do it fine. And he's fun.

This is just terrible.

(I would like Melky back)

So Sox futility aside this is one of the best pitching performances thru 5 I've seen this year (watched personally). Carrasco has absolute command of everything.

My jinx worked

Carrasco is gonna pitch a perfect game idnt he

Best breaking stuff for sure. I'd take his fastball in that first game.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 6, 2017 -> 08:18 PM) Lopez has thrown like 30 more pitches than he should have up until now Frankly he's done an incredible job and has been fearless

The snap on Carrascos pitches is crazy tonight

Yeah poor Lopez

All US women in the semis. Amazing!
