QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 02:36 PM) I have no idea who the guy is honestly, but I know we have hit big on many of these lottery ticket type deals. Agreed, we got Patrick Sharp for Matt Ellison for Christ's sake.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 03:06 PM) Why did Viciedo put his glove on the other hand this inning?

F*cking Christ, left field.

QUOTE (Baron @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 03:01 PM) He needs help from Jobu Between players standing on the wall in the outfield and this Jobu reference, my mind is all Major League today.

Paul Konerko is a cyborg.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 02:40 PM) I originally used to think it was a good thing that Reggie had that experience to relate to Derrick, but it's clear that Derrick looks up to his brother and does whatever he says, which he's done his whole life... but he's his own man now, he's 24. Sadly, despite being worth a gajillion dollars, he's not his own man.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 02:55 PM) Oh wow, Keppinger actually struck out. Fire Greg Walker!

QUOTE (Cali @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 02:54 PM) God I wish someone higher up to tell Hawk to shut the f*** up about the Royals. It's a defeatist attitude that permeates everyone who watches the game, and I wouldn't be shocked if it gets into the player's heads too. He used to do the same s*** with the Twins of 6-7 years ago. It's real old. NO idea why he transferred it over to the f***ing Royals. I'm so over Hawk.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 02:49 PM) Get Jake out of there. He's been greatly betrayed by his defense today.

And now we hate DV again. This will be interesting. Retire already, Adam Dunn!

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 02:39 PM) It's a White Sox tradition the way I see it. Everyone comes on opening day, nobody comes to the second game. Save 06-08 when we still boleeve. The Sox have been a proven cash cow, so I don't worry. I'll get my ass out there when it's above 50 degrees.

Threads like these make me love baseball even more. It's interesting to read questions from someone who didn't grow up with the game and have these rules burned into their brains automatically. Keep them coming, this is great.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 02:29 PM) I remember when Allen Craig played 2B for a few games. He was a great fantasy player because of his 2B eligibility last year. http://flapship.com/fantasy-baseball-pickups-for-week-1/

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 02:31 PM) These are the type of deals the hawks usually kill it in. A Belarussian who is 5'11" doesn't inspire me in terms of a defensive stalwart. That said, we gave up nothing. Gaborik would have been fun if he didn't cost a bajillion dollars.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 02:14 PM) Any rivival of Bill Russell b****ing disqualifies you from any sort of respectability on quality discussions. Or apparently any discussion about rules in the NBA.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 01:58 PM) I just don't get this exceptionalism that people want to apply to Rose since he's arguably one of the 5 best players in the NBA. His teammates are grinding it balls-out every night and really pushing to their limits while Rose, through his entourage, is like "there's no point in me coming back." Obviously, nobody wanted Rose to come back before he was healthy or "ready" but we've been long past the point where re-injury or other injuries like Rubio had was a risk, but I'd feel some kind of way about that if I was one of his teammates although I'd never say it out loud or on the record. If Rose's plan all along was to never play this season, he should've just said that instead of trying to be mealy-mouthed about it and string everyone all along and he'd have saved so much unnecessary drama. The more he talked about it the worse he made it sound, since Rose was never a great communicator to begin with. Listening to Rose speak in public is like watching Michael J. Fox try to compete in a Jenga tournament. Once I read Reggie Rose's comments that HE'D had an ACL injury before that "ended" his college career, which you know in his mind means before he got a chance to dominate the NBA, I knew that we are f***ed. Reggie holds so much anger over getting injured. It's clear that he's projecting his fears into his little brother's mind. You know, the kid that was cleared to return by the best doctors money can buy well over a month ago.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 02:25 PM) I thought Carpenter is playing 3rd cause Freese is hurt? Freese is back in a week and then he slides over.

QUOTE (ScottyDo @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 02:23 PM) Alright I guess that's why you keep him in LF haha It's like the Cardinals with Matt Carpenter at 2nd. The bat outweighs the errors.

DV!

I think the radio team sounds better when DJ does pbp and Farmio rightly falls back to the color where he was so great with Rooney.

Damn.

If Tyler Flowers hits 162 homers, we're going to be alright.

Ah the luxuries of having a DH in LF.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 01:54 PM) So what.
