Are we really that good?
QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Dec 17, 2014 -> 09:11 AM) That's 29 zWAR. There are absolutely areas where they can improve amongst that too internally, with the keys being RF, 4/5 in the rotation, and perhaps C and 3B. The bullpen is going to be projected 2 but that could easily be a 4 or 5 too with progression from young players. Frankly, I see nothing wrong with this, but the only thing I ever really saw wrong with the Steamer projections was Quintana. Yeah I think the Sox see more than 0 from Avi.

I love the term hackers because it's so broad. This group or whatever has the ability to bypass Microsoft security to get into an exchange server. And because of that, I ammto believe they can also conduct a large terrorist attack in the Us? Help me connect the dots there.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Dec 16, 2014 -> 07:23 PM) I don't usually come on here with sources because I really don't have any but I do know a guy that knows Tom Crean very well. Said that Harbaugh would take the Bears job if offered it. I know for a fact that he was the McCaskey's dream candidate around 2009 when he was still at Stanford. They loved him when he was here. That would be unreal. The Bears need someone who is proven.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Dec 16, 2014 -> 04:39 PM) General rule of thumb is to stay away from work relationships, right? Yes, never dip your pen in the company ink, ever. Unless you work at a bar, then its fine.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Dec 16, 2014 -> 04:52 PM) I know all the reports out there are saying Harbaugh is on the way out but are the 49ers really that stupid to let him go? They were a mess when he got there and quickly made them a Super Bowl contender. They can't be that dumb, can they? Pretty sure the Raiders, Bears and Dolphins are going to find out.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Dec 16, 2014 -> 03:29 PM) Bernstein's insiders are simply awesome. Why can't he just admit he has none? Because then he would be truly worthless. He's trying for that Marriotti niche.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Dec 16, 2014 -> 03:08 PM) Heck yeah, get er done. Best news I heard was someone on ESPN radio this morning talking about harbaugh saying he isn't interested in GM'ing or any of that crap. He wants to implement his system in a place where he has a GM who supports him and works well with him but he has zero interest in handling all of the personnel moves and wants to focus on coaching. You also have to figure, if Emery is somehow saved, he'll do everything he can to make a big time splash as that is his best shot at staying around long term (especially after he went out on a limb with this last hire). He will whip that locker room into shape. I dont see any other top notch coaches out there for the taking that arent huge questions marks.

Did the sox hit all of their offseason targets
I personally think the Sox hit every one of their primary options other than maybe catcher. What do you think.
