QUOTE (Deadpool @ Aug 1, 2016 -> 09:35 AM) Quit being a petulant baby and I'll stop being all "smarter than thou". Because the Cubs fans did so much s***ting in 2005. The last decade has earned the White Sox and their fans every ounce of s*** they get. From all directions. Again, quit being such a baby. I moved to Austin well into my 20s. The Twins rivalry actually matters, though. This nonsense doesn't fly either. When the White Sox are good, they sell plenty of tickets and make the organization plenty of money. If the MLB didn't think Chicago could manage two teams, the White Sox wouldn't be here. This is a general Cubs board. The Cubs are good. That play was great when you consider who made it. I'm not sure what's so hard for you. Get off my high horse? You're being such a baby, everyone is on a higher horse than you. All this after i came in here and said you have the right to comment and appreciate the Cubs a month ago when other posters wanted you bounced for merely being a fan of what the Cubs are doing. stop being a jerk

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 1, 2016 -> 08:32 AM) Can you imagine Sale and Kershaw paired together? (Of course, they already had Greinke, who wasn't too shabby.) I think Puig coming back is likelier than Pederson, fwiw. Agree about the abysmal offense. Even with Lawrie, who just strikes out way too much to enjoy. Doesnt look likely. At least not this year, Kershaws back is f***ed

QUOTE (Deadpool @ Aug 1, 2016 -> 08:20 AM) You didn't read his post People with Quinnie's attitude are annoying as s***, and they're the reason our fanbase isn't taken seriously. That and we don't show up to games. Our fanbase's distaste for the Cubs (which is misplaced, because they don't f***ing matter to us), is a scar on the White Sox. I read his post, he didnt say the Cubs suck, he said he doesnt like them. You dont have to tell everyone the Cubs are good every time someone says they dont like them. We have read it plenty.

QUOTE (Deadpool @ Aug 1, 2016 -> 06:57 AM) Because Cubs malice is always worth discussing. Saying the catch wasn't that great isn't Cubs malice. You don't have to be the Cubs white knight defender, nobody was saying the Cubs sucked

Anonymous person internet money bets always reinforce points

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 09:57 PM) Ramos and Wieters are essentially it in terms of fa catchers. That doesn't mean we should try for Wieters

QUOTE (dpd9189 @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 06:57 PM) Has Hahn or anyone said what the actual plan is moving forward? If they want to do an actual rebuild then I would think the big deals (Q/Sale) wait until the offseason when more teams will get involved. At this point, why even bother telling anyone about a plan? How many times has "three year plan" been thrown back in their face(for good reason)? Fix that s***. Keep your plan in house. Stop talking about plans and start executing them

QUOTE (Lillian @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 06:39 PM) So, if Boston agreed to Moncada, Benintendi, Devers and Kopeck, you wouldn't be satisfied with that haul for Sale? I think the quality here is more important than the quantity. I don't care if it's 4, instead of 5, as long as they are the right 4. No, if I set his value at 5 top prospects, and you don't want to meet it, goodbye. There is zero guarantee any of those prospects do anything at the major league level, we are handing you a consistent Cy Young contender. If you want that shot at the World Series and feel Sale is your final piece, then pay up. Rarely do these large prospect heavy deals work out for the team giving up the all star, I want as many lottery tickets as I can get

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 06:34 PM) The time where we can continue to say this is very quickly running out... They have three years to f*** it up, I'm not gonna flip out if they don't do it now

QUOTE (Lillian @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 06:26 PM) You're just being sarcastic, right? I mean, you wouldn't be happy with 4 top, Major League ready prospects? Of course, it depends upon exactly which prospects, but I wouldn't be stuck on the quantity, which Hahn has been openly demanding. I'd settle for 4, instead of 5, providing they are the right ones. No, I'm not being sarcastic one bit. You have not one but two of the top left handed starters under team control with very good deals. You don't concede at all. You don't settle at all. There is literally no need for the sox to make any move that does not greatly benefit them

QUOTE (Lillian @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 06:17 PM) Until the Red Sox and, or Rangers acquire a starter, which both teams are openly seeking, there is still a very good chance that Hahn trades Sale or Q. I can't believe that those teams are just going to stand pat, without adding an arm. He has insisted that he wants 5 prospects for Sale, which I would guess is posturing. So, if he settles for 4 really good ones, who are near Major League ready, that would be his "concession". I'd take that, wouldn't you? No. I don't settle or concede for either Quintana or Sale

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 03:56 PM) Of course that wasn't my plan... But it would have been better than this. At least the organization would have gotten stronger. Your hero, Rick Hahn, has fielded a bad team when going for it and hasn't improved the org. a bit. Who is your hero? Besides yourself? Oh wait, you are your hero And yea, that was totally your plan

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 03:51 PM) Oh no Can't disrupt the core. We have our CF, just trade 4 prospects for Jason Castro in the offseason and we're set! Rick Hahn's liked him way back in 2012 Personally I think your plan of trading Eaton and starting Saladino and Sanchez would have worked wonders. Melky too since you spent all offseason telling us that he was a horrible offensive player

QUOTE (hi8is @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 02:49 PM) Oh I remember. Very well. Before Thornton threw the pitch I walked up to the TV and turned it off. My dad asked what the hell I was doing - to which I replied, "Thome is hitting a walk off." He says something like, "you don't know that - turn it back on!" I turned it back on and the crowd was going nuts which Thome circled second. I turned the TV back off and said, "see" My dad was looking at me dumbfounded. I knew it too, but I watched in horror/fascination

QUOTE (hi8is @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 02:36 PM) Dozier says hello Doziers homer looks like an infield fly compared to what Thome did http://m.mlb.com/video/topic/0/v11084089/c...mer-in-the-10th That's a crime. He should have been arrested

Seeing Morneau up to bat for some reason made me think of the time Thome hit that ball off the moon against Thornton

Sano and Vargas look like the same video game player model on both sides of the diamond

QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 02:16 PM) Asdrubal Cabrera is injured? They can have Melky for the right price. They won't even have to reprint unis I don't see Melky as much of a infielder, but that's just me

QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 02:10 PM) Depends whether or not you feel that the hiccups by our players are symptomatic of a bigger issue. I don't care much about Frazier, but that Anderson blunder isn't okay. The Anderson blunder I have issues with as well

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 02:02 PM) At some point it's the culture that the manager sets...our culture obviously f***ing sucks. Like I said, Robin has many faults, but you can't pin every little thing on him. Especially when a veteran that had been with the team for half a season does something stupid

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 01:53 PM) Frazier, who is a veteran player, makes a goofy move and it's Ventura's fault? Yea, Robin has plenty of issues, no need to pile on ones that have nothing to do with him QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 01:56 PM) When you see a team continue to make stupid decisions year in and year out on the field, it's hard to blame it solely on each player that has been here. Seems like a symptom and not the disease. I know you are frustrated, but this is bulls***

Why do you keep bringing up Weiters? Dude is a big disappointment, a boras client, constantly injured, there is nothing to like about him.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 10:38 AM) Great, the future White Sox coaching staff will blow away the rest of MLB in the celebrity softball HR hitting contest...!!! Well at least they all got letters in HS varsity. Amirite?
