QUOTE (SoxSteve @ Feb 17, 2016 -> 02:27 PM) Have to disagree on that one. Markaikas is a much better fielder seeing he did win the gold glove in 2014 i believe. His defense has slipped but would be the best left or right fielder on this team by far. Plus the 377 OBP would be great in the 2 hole. He knows how to handle the bat very well. Who cares about his lack of homers but he can probably hit 8-12 in this ballpark but if he hit 3 and batted what he did last year it would be a big boost for us. And he did hit 38 doubles last year. Ive been on the Markaikas band wagon for months now. . Love to have him on the field and in clubhouse. Listen gold glove follower...

Bell is likely going to have to go independent and give people a chance to scout him. Shame given age, I wish him best.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Feb 17, 2016 -> 02:05 PM) Such a shame that he was just wasted in his prime. The guy just was a wrecking machine and the Sox never really had that true contender feel again after the strike Even worse that he got injured in 05 after he was hitting homers left and right in June.

Depends what OF we are talking about.

That just continues the log jam of average big men.

2 hours was insanely long. It had alot of issues but I liked the actors and I'm a sucker for 70s manhattan art scene.

If Fowler truly is going for 2/20, I relaly would like us to pay that and give up our comp pick.

I would rather play Avi than Markakis.

QUOTE (fathom @ Feb 17, 2016 -> 11:45 AM) They better find someone else on offense, as they currently have no platoon partner for LaRoche. In very small sample size, looks like Jerry Sands could be a hitter for Lefties.

Define early. Teams rarely even need a fifth starter the first 6 weeks.

They need to make a change. They've now had a flu nearly kill a player with a bad spinal tap, and now an appendectomy gone wrong. They need to very publicly make a move. This looks horrible.

Bulls doctors, man

Missouri has back to back SEC wins and somehow Rosburg being our best player isn't a bad thing

Going to be a fun June.

Bulls apparently also in on Rudy Gay, according to David Schuster. The schus

I don't think so, Leno was good and he's cheap. I think they'd rather either sign a RT and swing Long back to guard, or shore up their interior. The #1 priority is going to be ILBs, WR depth and DE

Bears release Jermon Bushrod. Not a shocker after last year.

Yeah, I think he's fine. He's definitely a starter in MLB, but, would just be super mentally draining. We could get him for peanuts thou.

QUOTE (farmteam @ Feb 15, 2016 -> 11:33 PM) My thoughts exactly. It was good and has potential, I'll keep watching. I do worry that the murder will be an unnecessary distraction. Seems like there's plenty of other places in the plot where the show could develop drama/intrigue/conflict. I said the exact same thing to my wife. Show was interesting enough without a murder.

So, bucket said we may trade for an OF. One of the very available OFs now is De Aza. What would your response be? Mine would be shrieking.

Yeah, don't agree with Rock. His previous 2 albums were pretty slim. This album has a lot more filler but definitely seems transitional. Dude is 38, this is better than most outputs from 38 year olds. Still pretty intriguing ideas here. If he was a rock artist, we'd just be getting a bunch of nashville/folk inspired records.

I like that trade for Detroit.

That's insane. That should be their responsibility to negotiate the rate, and if they can't negotiate a lower rate they should not allow you to use that dentist. Was that dentist in your network?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 16, 2016 -> 11:43 AM) I am convinced it is also the same reason that Thibs spent a decade + as a top assistant trying to get hired as a head coach. That's because NBA front offices are idiots and risk averse and continue to hire Lawrence Frank, Byron Scott and Vinny Del Negro over an assistant coach. Why was Budenholzer an assistant for 18 years? Is it because he's so mean too?

QUOTE (AustinIllini @ Feb 16, 2016 -> 11:31 AM) Your point on Thibs and star players is emphasized by the fact that Thibs has yet to get another coaching job. Everyone is so afraid he'll go to Cleveland. He should go run what's left of LeBron into the ground. It's been 1 year. Thibs will certainly get another coaching job. "Run what's left of Lebron into the ground", yeah, unlike Spoelstra, who would play him 48 minutes a night some nights.
