I think it is time to accept gregs opinion on a rebuild and stop questioning it. We can all move on now

out of walking boot, in to full body cast

Montero DFA

At least the 06 Sox fell apart due to fatigue and not drama

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 26, 2017 -> 11:56 AM) I think he's trying to hold out like DA and some others have suggested, obviously due to the lead they have, but at the same time, see if he can cheaply find a combination of guys, that when put in certain roles, might actually achieve more than the sum of their parts. It's pretty clear that any GM that has a reasonably performing bullpen arm is asking him for Robles, Fedde, Soto, etc., and he is hesitant to empty out his farm system even more after the Eaton deal. How much do you think Rizzo wishes he could have that Eaton trade back, so he could use those pieces to fix his pen? Its more of a overview of "wtf is this" as opposed to "why is he signing guys like K Rod right now". This was preventable, and i am not even talking about adding Robertson. the bullpen was a nightmare to start the season, and everyone knew it. All of us were posting this winter "dont they want Robertson?" simply by looking at their pen(and shuddering). I know bullpens are volatile and its hard to count on them, but he was really going out on a limb with what he put together, and now he is backed into a corner looking for multiple pitchers as opposed to grabbing a pitcher that could solidify the pen QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 26, 2017 -> 12:07 PM) It is the same thing the Tigers did during their run. I mean if you are going to spend like that, just spend a bit more and do it right. The Tigers pen was pretty decent for a little while. the last couple competitive years were pretty messy though

Those of us in northern IL won't get a complete eclipse, but NASA has a nifty app that shows how it'll look where you're at. http://www.wlwt.com/article/this-is-how-th...em:+New+Content Carbondale is rolling out the welcome mat, they are all over this

i really dont understand what Rizzo is doing. This bullpen construction looks like a rebuilding team throwing together a pen, not a team that has a playoff worthy offense and starting pitching

Umm where is the Incomplete option, since a rebuild is not finished 3 months into the first season of a rebuild

QUOTE (ptatc @ Jun 25, 2017 -> 02:18 PM) It's not about civility. It's about coming up with agreements (not just on healthcare) that works for everyone. No policy set to one extreme liberal or conservative will be the best for everyone. Extremes on either side are rarely good. Of course this one is about cut, cut ,cut. The last one was far too expensive and really didn't work very well. So because there was no way any of the politicians were going to compromise it had to swing way to the other extreme. this probably isn't going to work very well either. but again when people aren't willing to work together, this is what you are going to get. And I mean the willingness to work together on both sides. conservative are as guilty on this as liberals. It just atmosphere of politics today. I mean, the Republicans drafted this bill in secrecy with Lobbyists, not democrats, and they are about to ram it through by any means possible. Hard to point fingers about agreements when that is happening

Bum ass A's teams always beat the sox ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Nobody outshines the Sox in ceremonies. Let's get a W today for Mark

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 23, 2017 -> 05:50 PM) Holy s***. What a f***ing dick. Pax doesn't like being questioned. I believe that is part of the reason he took the president job, so he wouldn't have to do GM press conferences anymore

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 23, 2017 -> 02:48 PM) I thought that was in the Tribune? Kass is being extremely sarcastic in this entire article. Kass is an extremely sarcastic and sometimes satirical writer

Seeing a few tweets indicating the Hawks are pushing hard for Oshie

Greg, how often do you share articles from the Onion as fact?

Markkanen just did a (painful) interview on Spiegel and Parkins and said Wade is one of his favorite players. So, there is that

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 23, 2017 -> 09:23 AM) Trump is terrified of Mueller. He also basically admitted to attempting witness intimidation with his threat of having tapes on Comey. His Fox and Friends interviews always get him to admit dumbass s***

This is exactly why I didn't want the Bulls to trade Butler. These morons have zero concept of value. Selling the second round pick was just the extra kick in the nuts

well people, the death panel was real all along. It was just the GOP

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 21, 2017 -> 11:01 AM) So having Vizquel as a coach or Belt as 1b everyday wouldn't help Anderson/Moncada as well....? This is seriously all over the place. You are projecting future player slumps that will be solved by "cheap" offseason first basemen and Omar Vizquel

Holy projection, batman

CF: How about a cheap 1B this offseason? soxtalk: noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo CF: Ok, Michael Saunders it is

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Jun 20, 2017 -> 10:03 PM) SWING THE f***ING BAT EXCEPT NOT LIKE THAT, NOT EVER LIKE THAT

The Twins: Let's pitch to Todd mmk?

I have no use for two more years of Todd, sorry ElRockinMT
