QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 27, 2014 -> 07:51 PM) Sounds like a big slap in the face to guys like Holmes and Abbatacola. No wonder Goff left. I don't think Holmes has enough time in the day to pull that off.

Interesting that both teams that had the biggest trades at the deadline have lost first place since the trade.

QUOTE (Brian @ Aug 27, 2014 -> 05:31 PM) I'm old because I don't remember those first town houses. Must not have been built. Last time I was there was in 2012 and I did a bunch of double takes, mostly on Wall St. I can only imagine what downtown is gonna look like now that 710 is gone

QUOTE (raBBit @ Aug 27, 2014 -> 02:26 PM) Bailey signed a 5 year deal with them last offseason and is injured so I don't think so. a large, absurd deal IIRC

i dont even know what to root for anymore. Go Sox, dont use that bullpen yay!

I dont think Mannelly has the personality of a doorknob, but i heard him trying to read a promo the other day and he was pretty robotic. He has a ways to go, i hope he can catch up to speed and not drag Spiegel down

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Aug 27, 2014 -> 10:53 AM) The kid has crazy power, but his contact skills are atrocious. true about Carter and Baez

Well, if that is the case, good luck to Patrick. I like him, but that is a bigtime shift for a guy with no experience

so the WWE financed "Leprechaun: Origins" got a 0.9 rating from IGN. quite an amusing review, im curious where this turd in a punchbowl ends up on rotten tomatoes

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Aug 27, 2014 -> 01:51 PM) Abreu has been so much better than what anyone expected. Eaton has been a plus when healthy, but folks used to rag on Carlos Quentin because he was hurt al the time. It will happen to Eaton too if he falters. Now the pitching staff has been horrendous. Second worse ERA in the league. Maybe Cooper needs to be hung? Really though you have to throw strikes and not give up the home run so often and as far as relief pitching-get the first man out! Quentin was hurt all the time, and his numbers went down after he hurt himself. He deserved the criticism. If Eaton punches a wall and takes himself out of a playoff race because of stupidity, he will deserve the criticism too

QUOTE (TRU @ Aug 27, 2014 -> 12:00 PM) Its a damn shame such a great fantasy asset is wasted like that, oh well I am sure Gordon enjoyed being wasted like that

QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 27, 2014 -> 11:57 AM) That said, I have been thinking a lot about it. I was really pleased at the all star break. But at this pace for 73 wins, rather than what I was hoping for, this team is at least another 2 years away, and we are going to have to pay for pitching, which is what people have been laughing about the cubs needing to do for 4 years now. This core is really good (Sale/Q/Rodon/Abreu/Ramirez), but we still could upgrade basically every OF position, C position, 2b, etc. I hope that Semien/Johnson can get there, but I'm not banking on it. Not after we just watched a top 100 pitching prospect forget how to throw. you are ready to move on from Eaton and Garcia already?

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Aug 27, 2014 -> 11:07 AM) I wanted a punch the bullpen in the nuts option. this poll is defective and misrepresentative

Josh Gordon suspended for the year

Announcement at 3PM. I find that kind of weird, that it isnt being announced during the midday shift. Makes me wonder if Goff is replacing a retiring Boers

http://www.desmoinesregister.com/story/spo...lones/14636143/ Now this is just creepy, all of Iowa States leading rushers from 2000-2006 have passed away What's up with that, Heads?

I want to vote Norberto Martin. Why isn't he an option?

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 26, 2014 -> 10:44 PM) Petricka was a second round draft pick? Why? His height? Seems pretty ordinary to me. Because of his projected WAR

If I were robin I would literally make a wheel of fortune with pitchers names and spin that s*** right in their faces, so they know exactly how s***ty I thought they all were

Nothing to talk about around here

I personally challenge everyone on the plane to a fight when I board

A few days ago we were freaking out at knee soreness, now he comes off the bench and plays mediocre and we freak out. It's exhibition games. It's a way for him to get back into the swing of things, but we should evaluate him on what we are seeing. Unless he is limping up and down the floor, of course

"Automata" looks like it will be what "I,Robot" aspired to be

the rumored story is that he DID jump from a second story and hurt his ankles.....while running from the police who were called a a domestic disturbance
