Off Season Buy Low Candidates
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 13, 2017 -> 04:17 PM) A deal like that wouldn't be about Ellsbury as much as the extra players he brought with him in order to take some or all of that contract on from Boston. New York

New rule idea: Vertical safe zone
QUOTE (yesterday333 @ Oct 13, 2017 -> 10:04 AM) Is it really that hard to stay on the base? You know if you come off you can be out. It really doesn't take that much extra effort to not come off the bag... Apparently it is kind of hard, since the professionals have a hard time with it

Off Season Buy Low Candidates
QUOTE (GenericUserName @ Oct 13, 2017 -> 08:12 AM) So of the names they mentioned, Tomas has three years left, but could turn into a player and be part of the rebuild; Markakis only has one year left at $11mm, so he could be an ideal bridge to Eloy Jimenez if we trade Avi this offseason; and Ellsbury has 3 years left at a little over $21mm per year, so he has the worst contract, but he was also a constructive player last year and maybe could hold down center until Luis Robert arrives. Ellsbury has always been such an injury plagued player, I just couldnt trust him to hold down any OF position, much less center

New rule idea: Vertical safe zone
QUOTE (GenericUserName @ Oct 13, 2017 -> 08:16 AM) In theory I like it, but something tells me I would hate the execution of it. I think it would be great until it went against the Sox. Then i would hate it forever

Off Season Buy Low Candidates
QUOTE (oldsox @ Oct 12, 2017 -> 05:48 PM) I say get Rangel Ravelo from St. Louis. Not on 40 man roster. He had another solid year in AAA this year. I don’t think we need to fill up Charlotte’s roster

The Sexual Assault problem
QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Oct 12, 2017 -> 04:50 PM) Another "groping" allegation against Ben Affleck. Will be interesting to see if more come out and how bad it damages his career. You know WB has to be freaking out right now with Justice League a little over a month away

NLDS: Cubs vs. Nationals
QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Oct 12, 2017 -> 12:28 PM) So have the Nats still not announced a starter yet? Should we assume it will be Gio, and then Roark if he sucks, or Scherzer to bridge it to the bullpen? Gio just announced per my At Bat app

ALDS: Yankees vs. Indians
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 12, 2017 -> 08:08 AM) So the Indians choke a 3-1 lead in the WS and the next year blow a 2-0 lead in the division series. They may be more cursed than the Cubs.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Oct 11, 2017 -> 07:47 PM) God that pick hurts. Total reach at a spot where you can get actually get an asset for trading down. Put that next to the Sims signing and the fact that he's only been utilized as a ST player...Ugh. Shaheen is getting offensive snaps, he is just being used as a blocker instead of a target. But he is definitely getting snaps

The Luck Factor: 2017 White Sox
QUOTE (iamshack @ Oct 11, 2017 -> 05:52 PM) No, no...that wasn't the bet...the bet was that I would buy Joe 5 italian beefs from Portillo's if he won, or that he would get his butt into shape if I won. Lol! I thought it was IBs both ways

NLDS: Cubs vs. Nationals
QUOTE (Jack Parkman @ Oct 11, 2017 -> 05:31 PM) My point is so does everyone else. Exhibit A: 2016 World Series. Both Maddon and Francona made terrible in-game decisions nightly. Only one of them lost. Dusty is known for them. Sorry man, you are fighting an uphill battle, it isn’t just me. QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Oct 11, 2017 -> 06:02 PM) And it goes all the back to Dusty's days managing the cubs. He really hasn't changed. No, it goes back to the Giants. He gave a game ball to a Russ Ortiz as he was walking off the mound before the game was over in the World Series, and they lost the game

NLDS: Cubs vs. Nationals
QUOTE (Jack Parkman @ Oct 11, 2017 -> 05:04 PM) I don't know why everyone gives Dusty Baker so much grief. Managing a baseball game is like the tallest midget contest. The good ones are the ones that suck the least. Last year's World Series proved that. Francona and Maddon are considered two of the best in the business and they both mismanaged the hell out of that series. Dusty gets his teams to the postseason, and it is a crapshoot from there. He's been more unlucky than anything else. He makes terrible in game decisions that cost him games, that’s why he gets so much grief. Exhibit A was game 3

Pretty sure it was revealed in court during Donald’s divorce from Ivana that he both physically abused and raped her. Plus, he is/was pretty tight with Jeffrey Epstein

NLDS: Cubs vs. Nationals
QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Oct 11, 2017 -> 11:58 AM) Sounded like none of this was Nats fault and all about Strasburg and his agent making certain Strasburg is number 1 priority. Then there is Max who will throw 100 pitches today if needed...although he already got paid. Well, Strasburg already got paid too, he got a 175M extension through 2023 so I think he is good
