QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Nov 11, 2014 -> 06:28 PM) Isn't K-Rod on the market? Either way, if we signed him, I'd hope that his role would just be a LHRP and not the closer. I'd want him to be the guy we bring in to face Joe Mauer and those lefties late in games, sort of like what Scott Downs was supposed to do this year. No one is going to spend 8-10 mill on a loogy. He wouldn't have to be the closer but he'd certainly be used for more than just tough lefties.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Nov 11, 2014 -> 03:25 PM) If you can suggest an available, good defensive corner OF, I'm listening for names? Ichiro? Not sure if his defense has taken a dive the last few years but if it hasn't and we're going all in, he might be the perfect one year fit as was semi suggested on the site yesterday.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Nov 11, 2014 -> 03:08 PM) At some point I really think the Sox need to take advantage of the fact that their #1 and #2 are being paid like a #4 and #5 Then you eventually throw in Rodon to the mix and Noesi as a cheap 5 (assuming Danks is traded) and that rotation is not expensive at all. After thinking more, I'm against it if Danks is still here, but I'm for it if he's gone. Sale- 6M Max- 25M Q- 3.4M Noesi- 1.9 Bassitt/Rodon- 500K Total- 36.8M I completely agree with you that at some point the Sox have to make a splash and hand out big money to someone to put them over the top. The problem with Scherzer wouldn't be the first year of the deal, we can definitely eat it right now, it's just down the line it's almost a guarantee it becomes a problem.

No one is ever untouchable but Chris Sale is realistically untouchable.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Nov 11, 2014 -> 12:07 PM) SoxPride I've noticed you like trades that the Sox win by a significant margin. I admire your persistence. In his defense, I like those trades too.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Nov 11, 2014 -> 09:11 AM) I accepted that a while ago. However I do think his ego will get him back out there eventually. And when he does, a lot of money will be made for all. I just don't know how long he is gonna be happy doing red carpet/comic book writing/staying out of the public eye/movie jobs I actually think his ego is what's going to keep him away for a while. I hope he comes back at some point but I don't think it's going to be for a while.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Nov 11, 2014 -> 08:27 AM) I know to temper my excitement, but yesterday was really fun to watch despite the opponent. The team was really fluid and looked engaged from the tip. I didn't get to see yesterday's game but I'm with you. Despite the crappy schedule, I've been very happy with what I've seen so far even though they haven't looked that great overall. I complained as much as anyone in the offseason but I'm pretty damn excited with what we have here if we stay healthy of course.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Nov 11, 2014 -> 07:54 AM) The lowlifes that went after Trestmans daughters on Twitter should be forced to move out of their parents basements http://t.co/FO1WPu9K5S Ya and all the tweets there are directed at Chloe and she wasn't the one that fired back. People suck.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Nov 11, 2014 -> 08:06 AM) Can all the "Rose isn't a PG" talk finally die down? He had some beautiful passes last night. It's hard to be a true pg when nobody around you can score. It will be interesting to see what his assist numbers are this year, assuming he plays most of the season of course. EDIT: And I shouldn't say "true" pg as he's still going to be a score first guy but you get my point.

QUOTE (Brian @ Nov 11, 2014 -> 05:35 AM) Rose/Butler > Curry/Klay, obviously. Well duh.

I can definitely get used to the Rose-Butler combo.

Oh Derrick how I missed you.

Cleveland starting to get their offense together after a whole 6 games. Still remains to be seen if they can defend.

QUOTE (Brian @ Nov 10, 2014 -> 07:15 PM) You're weak sauce. /Heel Bout time you turned, your face persona was not getting over.

The wrestling forum I read loves Ryback, he still bores the hell out of me.

As much as I love going to ppv's, after reading the spoilers for tonight I don't even know if I want to go to Survivor Series. The card is so damn awful.

So we all agree that LeBron is coming to the Bulls next year?

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Nov 10, 2014 -> 04:03 PM) I think if the Mets were willing to trade Wheeler for Ramirez, I'd have a really, really hard time turning it down. I understand the value of Ramirez and that he remains a fairly good player, but you cut $10 mill in salary and add like 5 years of control to the rotation. And he's a left handed bat!

I went with Victor, Masterson and Morse. No reasoning, just wanted to vote.

QUOTE (gatnom @ Nov 10, 2014 -> 01:55 PM) Who are you playing? Nobody outstanding actually, just a lot of consistency through out his team. QUOTE (chw42 @ Nov 10, 2014 -> 03:46 PM) Did the rest of your players get you 0 points or something? Marshawn and Jordy got around 75 combined. Peyton got at least 25 I'd think. Damn close. Everyone else just completely sucked on my squad.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Nov 10, 2014 -> 12:11 PM) This is why I refuse to open that door. I've been trying to avoid them for that reason. I know once I start I'm going to be an addict right away.

In one of my leagues I have Peyton, Marshawn and Jordy and there's a very real possibility that I still might lose this week.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Nov 9, 2014 -> 09:52 PM) Twitter can really make me hate humankind. Leave those girls alone, they have zero to do with anything. Ya I can only imagine the things people are saying to them.

COMEBACK

One of the Trestman daughters getting a little chippy on Twitter.
