Yes, he switched arms at commercial, not my fault

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 12, 2015 -> 06:35 PM) [/b] The subject of one of all time favorite long running Soxtalk debates. Aaron Miles versus Juan Uribe. Yup. Was it Steff that championed him?

Great job, me, at spelling

Scotia brought in a lefty vs Trayce? Txt to hit a 3 run bomb

Grizzlies will continue to finish top 5

Avi. Come on man

Man Heaney can't paint the corners can't he?

Just watched TTs homer again. Love this kid. Want him to be our fourth outfielder for 6 years.

I have supported much of Robin's moves since June. Moving Melky to 4 once he was en fuego...though maybe not this forcing Saladino at 2.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Aug 12, 2015 -> 05:28 PM) Is he back? Yes, he's apparently been playing and writers have commented on how he's noticeably struggled as an OLB.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Aug 12, 2015 -> 01:32 PM) Kevin White and Marquess Wilson Well, I have some bad news for you

Yep, Goldman and honestly Shea for me. Also Marquis Wilson.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Aug 12, 2015 -> 12:35 PM) Eaton... Yeah, not saying he's our new CF, saying that if he can play all 3 OF positions and hit LHP he'll be a major leaguer. That as recent as last year was not in cards for Trayce.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Aug 12, 2015 -> 10:26 AM) That's an awesome celebration. Hopefully it works out for Trayce. We badly need one of our hitting prospects to pan out and break expectations. SSS had a nice post about how if Trayce can hit LHP and play a mean center, it's likely he'll find a spot on sox for a while.

Sports Football fans: What non-starters/rookie players are you most excited to watch in preseason?

Danks against playoff teams is money.

Following Alvarez kind of reminds me of following Aaron Miles.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Aug 11, 2015 -> 07:34 PM) I guess that's true. The things I watch most are soccer, NBA, college football and tennis. I'll give you TNT's NBA coverage is much better, but I think that's just the studio show (Inside the NBA) guys being better. The announcing teams are the same to me. The other three sports I think ESPN does really well. They do a really nice job with the tennis majors. ESPN is great for MLS and USMNT coverage. I don't watch the NFL to care about that. I thought ESPN's hockey coverage was great. I don't think NBC is doing it any better now. Obviously ESPN ignores it now because they don't carry it. You are right on tennis, their coverage is fantastic. i wish they could do the type of coverage during a tournament (throwing all the matches on demand) as NBCS does for EPL. Really, regardless of ESPN, the set-up on NBCS is so sweet, and likely so shortlived, that its worth enjoying the unique circumstances.

endorsed. Very happy for him. Has to be an amazing feeling after his work to get up here.

9 R, 4 ER lol

I was very, very psyched to get to see Trayce's home run.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Aug 11, 2015 -> 05:12 PM) I was referring more to the actions of NYC to try and save the taxi industry from Uber, which is clearly all about votes and money (via lobbying) and nothing to do with good public policy or what people want. Also: Paris and Rome.

Honestly the only game coverage I like best on ESPN is their fantastic CFB coverage. I prefer TNT for hoops. Fox for NFL. MLBN for baseball. NBC for hockey/soccer.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Aug 11, 2015 -> 04:30 PM) I'm not exactly well-versed in the criticisms, but I think the idea is that it takes all the bad of the taxi industry and then dumps other costs on the drivers on top of it all while exploiting or just simply ignoring numerous regulations. Plus there's the issue of the drivers' insurance probably not covering an ad hoc livery service. Wellp, i ran out of time to respond, but I disagree with the costs, and I think other cities have done a better job of re-regulating than NYC and europes cease and desist laws. Tehran runs on basically civilian cabbies doing it in free time and has for years.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Aug 11, 2015 -> 04:18 PM) no I'm pretty sure liberal bloggers and twittereerererss aren't going after lobbyists and votes edit: is there a big taxi lobby out there anyway? Every city.
