Yoan Moncada signs with Red Sox
QUOTE (LDF @ Feb 16, 2015 -> 10:14 AM) you are sooo right, that is way i stated, the idea of getting, there is no guarantees. but it is a possibilities. look at Trout and Stanton, no one knew what they would turn out to become. but it does help to gamble. Trout and Stanton arent blind gambles with massive contracts

It was kind of funny to see Jim Carrey on the stage at the end of SNL 40, considering he never made it to a castmember, and was actually an In Living Color cast member

Yoan Moncada signs with Red Sox
QUOTE (LDF @ Feb 16, 2015 -> 09:53 AM) the idea of getting a young Trout, a young Stanton, a young Jeter how ever he develops, the price is worth it. the salary is hard to get used to, but look at the positives, fans in the stands, when the sox are making a run for the playoff, in the playoff, the on the field positives, let alone the media coverages, and for the financial aspects the commercial side, it is a win win situation. now totally unrelated question, Yoan is eligible to sign now, but at what point can he sign after spring training and it will count as next yr int't signing and the penalties., There is no guarantee this guy becomes anything close to those players. You can justify handing those guys the checks right now, since you know what they can do. Moncada is a mystery, and every GM putting an offer on him should NOT expect him to become the next Trout/Stanton/Jeter, because he could just as easily become the next Viciedo

Cafardo's manager ranking
QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Feb 16, 2015 -> 08:30 AM) If the Royals did that at mid-season with Yost, they probably would have missed the playoffs. The hardest thing about managerial changes in-season is that the best options are usually under contract and can't be tampered with. Who do you have in mind that you're absolutely sure would be a better option AND would be available to jump in (step over White Sox icon Ventura's still warm body) and take over? LMAO not only is this completely unprovable, but it is very likely WRONG. Yost made so many bad moves along the way, it is amazing that the Royals got as far as they did

Hawk on the Score with Mully & Hanley this morning
Hawk has a big ego, but I don't think he is hanging around until he is admitted into the HoF. I think he is just doing something he has done his whole life. Stone has a big ego too but it doesn't bother me

White Sox sign Matt Albers
QUOTE (shysocks @ Feb 13, 2015 -> 03:52 PM) At the risk of sounding like a s***-head, I have to take issue with people characterizing this move as "low risk, high reward." First of all, such a signing is inherently impossible - that's not how risk and reward work. Second, I would not call Matt Albers a "high reward" guy. That would imply some kind of big upside, but realistically, the most we'll get out of Albers is a pretty good groundballing middle reliever. And while that'd be lovely, it's not going to change the outlook of the team. Left shark you are such a s***-head

QUOTE (Tex @ Feb 13, 2015 -> 01:47 PM) He is not going to survive this. He repeated the story too many times. The next six weeks will be basically on screen auditions for his replacement. Wasn't Lester Holt a former Chicago guy? Longtime chicago guy

Hawk on the Score with Mully & Hanley this morning
QUOTE (Lillian @ Feb 13, 2015 -> 12:34 PM) None of you have commented on what was, at least for me, the most interesting and debatable thing that he said. He asserted that Beckham was the best defensive second baseman in the League. He also said that he was the best at turning the double play. Many on this board would disagree, vehemently. Even the notion that he might be the starting second baseman raises questions. Hawk said that Sanchez could not cover the ground, or throw like Beckham. Thoughts? Sounds like everything he has been saying about Beckham for his entire time in a white sox uniform
