  1. Jason will be 80 years old and retired from national broadcasts and he will be calling the radio for the Sox under JR Jr. book it.
  2. I would take Moncada 1/4 with a 2B, BB and a 250/400/500 line the rest of the way.
  3. the tough assignment is going to be winning enough games so my ass and your ass aren't sitting here chatting amongst ourselves come July.
  4. Manfred, he probably has the juiced balls over there this year.
  5. Pollock getting into that game against the Dodgers almost by accident really seems to have ignited him.
  6. looked bad the minute he signed it imo. he's a guy that is propped up by BABIP and defense -- two things that are too random.
  7. Dylan showing growth, learning to fly isn't easy but he's learning.
  8. Moncada is just a guy that needs a pat on the back instead of a kick on the rear. If TLR can't figure out how to get the talent out of a guy like Moncada he should be shitcanned. Figure it out TLR.
  9. Wow, the average FB velocity faced for Yoan this year is 95mph. He's -5.5 runs on fastballs. Seems like some bad luck of facing fireballer after fireballer and perhaps a case of a guy that is in between on his swing and is guessing too much.
  10. Yea but that was 3 year ago! Nothing lasts forever. I love Jose but we root for the laundry, do we not? If trading him now increases the chances of good Sox baseball now and in the future why shouldn't we all be for it, from ownership down to the fans?
  11. This attitude explains a lot of losses on the South Side the last two decades. Sentiment taking precedence over the cold hard facts of winning in a cut throat business. Frankly it's a Cubs like attitude and one I can't stand. I'm not ragging on you specifically or any other fan because it ain't our job to make these decisions but I am totally ragging on JR and the FO. The Sox have at least two guys that need to play DH/1B only, arguably 3-4, and you've got an aging, not as productive as he was, but a productive bat that could get you a couple lotto ticket prospects that sometimes hit the jackpot without the team really missing a single beat this year, as you'd slide a guy like Vaughn or Eloy into a more natural position and get similar production.
  12. ha, i have some college kids as clients once and awhile. it just cracks me up when they say how "busy" they are. come on kids. you'll never have more free time in your adult life. I'd argue that these days once you get to college and the extra-curriculars are limited you probably have more free time then when you were in HS. That was true for me at least even playing low level baseball.
  13. That he let Paxson stay on after the punch and then after the "three amigos" season is wild. It apparently came down to Michael Reinsdorf firing Garpax.
  14. Man a steamy night in Homewood about 14 years ago I was having the time of my life with a girl from there. We spent all day in the city at the Taste with our college friends and then drove down to her spot for the nightcap. Her dad was an administrator at Homewood-Floosmor and with school out her parents were out of town so us kids went wild. Don't ever let some silly college kid say 21 isn't fun. Yea it might not have the stability of middle age but it's fun. Oh, and GO SOX.
  15. @Quin this post went viral the other week on twitter, I had never fucking heard of "st. louis" style. Looks like some shit to me.
  16. Yea there's something about the way the crust hardens on the corners that is perfection. It's a heart attack waiting to happen but hey, that's what the gym sessions are for.
  17. lol I saw that post that went viral, the fuck is "st louis style"? What is Chicago thin crust? Now you got me curious as a big NYC thin crust fan.
