How in the hell could you be a libertarian and vote for Bloomberg.

Desmond Jennings
QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jan 29, 2016 -> 10:44 AM) This would be great. What kept Jennings out most of last year? This would be a great buy-low candidate for the Sox, imo. Keeps injuring his left knee. Not a great injury, but as you said, if you get him cheap.

Guys, you are missing the clear Jennings for Jennings swap for max confusion.

Cleto - Rejoining the Sox for a 3rd time
QUOTE (raBBit @ Jan 28, 2016 -> 04:19 PM) Rick Hahn personally loves Cleto as a pitcher. To be clear, I am not saying he thinks he's going to be Stephen Strasburg, but I've heard Hahn admit he's always been very bullish on him. Brad Penny level love?

I have multiple sonos, so I guess the answer is no.

Does it work with sonos?

Cleto - Rejoining the Sox for a 3rd time
Good. I let Cleto go in OOTP and he became a STARTER witha 1.7 era for the cubs. /everybody cares. Cleto is a nice insurance policy for massive bullpen injuries. You can do a lot worse.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jan 28, 2016 -> 11:47 AM) That's true. Cruz and Trump might end up splitting EV's, but I can't imagine what states Bloomberg would pull enough votes from Hillary to cause her to lose. Bloomberg is a fraud. Under scrutiny, after he moves from "the idea of a third party candidate" to "actual candidate" his base falls out. People just like to say they are independents.

Sox should trade for Andre Ethier
QUOTE (shysocks @ Jan 28, 2016 -> 11:45 AM) Thanks. His name is hard to type. =( BTW I did not know you mispelled it, I just threw it on at the end. I really did like your post. The thing that kills me is at a high level trading Trayce Thompson to the Dodgers and then getting back Ethier just really seems like the operations of a not savvy front office.

Zika virus
This is getting really bad. El Salvador has told their woman population not to get pregnant for two years. Brazil 9 months. Brazilian infrastructure should be decent to handle this but it's just a terrible disease. http://www.bbc.com/news/health-35427493

2016 Democratic Thread
QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jan 28, 2016 -> 11:03 AM) I guess if it led to the abolition of the EC, that'd at least be something positive. Otherwise, it'd probably just mean the Republican Congress chooses the Republican candidate for President, just like the Republican SCOTUS chose the Republican candidate in 2000. Wouldn't exactly scream "beacon of representative democracy." Yes. I don't know why we are talking about this though, "brokered convention" and "leads way to a third party candidate" are the most overdone election tropes that come out and never happen.

Sox should trade for Andre Ethier
Hey OP, that was a great post. I don't really want to go with either...or ETHIER

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 28, 2016 -> 11:15 AM) If we take on the entire salary, the Dodgers should give us prospects. Yeah, but LA doesn't care about money.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jan 28, 2016 -> 10:18 AM) Three or four candidates roughly splitting the votes means that nobody will reach 270, which means the House gets to elect the President. That sounds pretty awful to be honest. This is true but also would be where we see the electoral college actually act as the electoral college where the electorates throw their votes.

2015-2016 NFL Thread
QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 27, 2016 -> 01:01 PM) Got an e-mail from Ted Phillips today saying that they are lowering season ticket preseason prices by 40%, while increasing regular season ticket prices by 10%, as part of new "variable" pricing. As a whole, the cost of a full season will stay the same. I know some people will fall for it, but a load of s***. That changes nothing. Yeah, but basically will remove the feeling that they are "losing" money when they sell them.

Saladino "inside track" at SS
I really hope Anderson pans out. He just reminds me of the swagger-heavy athletic baseball players I grew up with, with his batting stance, build and speed.

Fangraphs WAR projections for Sox
The hitters actually look pretty realistic to me except maybe being a best case scenario for LaRoche (honestly).
