Sad beyond words. Just love and peace for your family and Josiah

Several bullpen arms in that back half on the way (finally) after a pretty big dearth the last few years. Clark/Cooper/Danish should provide a nice boost to depth.

Kenny is so good at reassuring us that he will make the wrong decision.

I'd have... Trouble with the Curve.

A for creativity

To be quite honest if we got Moncada, Benitendi and Kopech, I'm fine. Get some interesting young players to round it out.

That St. Louis deal is not the best offer for the white sox but that is the only fan blog post i've seen with legitimate recognition that it should hurt a bit to acquire a player like sale. Bader is a good OF prospect, Wong is probably a 2 WAR player on average, and Wacha is having a down year but in general a 3.5 ERA pitcher. And then the #2 prospect in baseball. That's not the deal I'd want for the sox, but it's at least closer to fair.

QUOTE (Dunt @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 01:51 PM) In 130 IP, he has 4.55 ERA, 1.56 WHIP, 6.7 K/9, and 5.1 BB/9. In comparison, Spencer Adams, who was drafted in the same draft, has a 3.51 ERA, 1.27 WHIP, 7.3 K/9, and a 1.5 BB/9 in 284 IP and is currently in AA. From everything I've seen, not a lot of people regard Spencer Adams as that great of a prospect, so Im not even sure what I would consider Kolek. A guy that throws hard but has no control and despite his velo, doesnt strike out a lot of people? On top of that, he now has health problems? Not that interested. Numbers aren't everything. He had TJ (HS arm, to be expected), and throws consistently high 90s.You get as many of those arms in your system as you can get and hope for the best.

If he threw a temper tantrum that's one thing, but he brought out a knife and destroyed company property. Any time there is any disagreement on what he or the players should do, his responses are so over the top and ridiculous, not following any degree of established pipeline of communication. He could go to his player rep to handle this issue, or his agent, or to hahn in a closed door meeting. But any bit of friction requires immediately causing a scene. It doesn't matter even if he has a point. These actions are so disrespectful to the many employees working to put this team together. He needds to grow up

Praying this afternoon goes well.

Well I guess you don't have Facebook, balta.

So Shaun King, what, like a week after encouraging everyone not to vote for hillary and to make a new political party, is now voting for Hillary.

You think Kolek is an inadequate return? That would be highway robbery.

Dang it. I hate cardinals fans but that was the most reasoned response I've seen.

It would be a bit sad as there has been many dramatic miracle kick returns. But yeah, the act of having these players running back, then turning their bodies to block players coming full speed, has led to a lot of blind side hits and injuries. Fine to change it. Slows the game down too.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 09:14 AM) Has anyone done an analysis of the impact of GOTV efforts versus poll numbers? I'm thinking back to 2012, where Obama had a really well-run GOTV effort with significant data and tech behind it whereas the Romney campaign's Orca project was a complete disaster. This year, story after story has shown how Trump's campaign has little to no data efforts, shuttered state offices, and really no ground game to speak of in many states. Should we "expect" Clinton to overperform the polls based on GOTV disparities? http://ssir.org/increasing_voter_turnout/e..._than_you_think

It will have to be done after the fact because it will almost certainly instead be attributed to undecideds falling more to clinton than trump (or johnson).

Not difficult to follow this caulfield

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 02:01 AM) Bernie got screwed so badly the Democrats should be happy he wasn't on the attack during his speech. It's criminal what was done to him by his own party. Cruel. I have no idea why the DNC fixed it for Hillary. Every speaker at the Democratic convention gets high grades. It's the way the analysts roll. This is the time of year they amp it up to make sure Hillary wins in a landslide. OMG the reviews of her speech are going to be "Best speech ever." "Hillary Clinton is one of the finest speakers to ever grace a convention floor. What a speech! Historic (cue tears)." Did you watch her speech Greg? Tony was giving his own opinion, not regurgitating analysts. You too could watch it and form your own opinion.

He's having a great year

Saladino always has great walkup music

Bet that took a lot of effort, Law.

If we are that terrified of really talented single-A ball players we really should have a different front office.

If anyone listening can let us know that would be great.
