QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 12:37 PM) Agreed. I'd feel much less worried if it were Kasich on the other side of the aisle. I probably would have voted for Kasich.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 12:33 PM) Yup. Hamilton and Burr might've been the most overlooked significant politicians until the musical came out. Hamilton - Nation's financial system, the Coast Guard, desire to have a standing army, New York Post, crucial part of building the constitution, setup Wall Street, the US mint, essentially decided the 1800 election to elect Jefferson. Meanwhile Burr sets up Chase Bank, his trial vs. Thomas Jefferson established the power of the judicial system, he's the reason the loser no longer becomes VP and he twice was part of schemes to create new nations, once in New England and once in the Louisiana Territory. Considering the two were initially friends, if they could have set aside differences they might have left an even bigger impact. I knew most of that other stuff. I had a great Econ history class in college. Hamilton was a big focus of that. Hamilton is 100% the father of modern banking in the United States, even if Andrew Jackson tried to torpedo it. I have also come across some interesting Burr stuff over time. The Chase stuff was completely new though.

I don't know what all of the Cub fan crap was in this thread, but it has been deleted, and isn't going to be tolerated.

QUOTE (JenksIsMyHero @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 11:34 AM) I really don't see how he's found guilty. She's claiming that she was so out of it that she went home and had no idea they were coming over. They have text messages proving that she's asking him to come over and she's upset Rose didn't bang her friend. This was after she had consensual sex with Rose's friend and gave Rose a BJ at the same time (edit: earlier that night) All that and her co-workers are refuting her day after symptoms and she didn't talk to the cops until 2 years later. All seems like a money grab to me. To be fair, it is a civil trail, so the bar is much, much lower.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 11:23 AM) When are the Sox planning on being good again though? If it's 2 years from now, then your CF is on a 2 year deal. Unless JR decides to pay Bradley which is doubtful. He is a Scott Boras client. I see no scenario where the Sox undergo a full scorched earth rebuild.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 11:25 AM) I know Hamilton: An American Musical came out and makes Burr look pretty bad, but holy s*** this dude. Burr's f***-ups set in stone so much dumb s*** for the modern day. Fun fact: He founded what eventually became Chase Bank. Learn something new every day. Thanks.

The other side to the 4 vs 6 years argument is Jake Arrietta. He had plenty of roster time before he got to the Cubs. If it is a guy you like, and a guy that fills a hole, I see nothing wrong with it.

QUOTE (bmags @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 08:16 PM) They also had a missed field goal and numerous trips to the end zone. Show me a team that has 500 total yards every game and I'd bet you'll see the best scoring offense in the league. Yeah that is the difference between having Hoyer and Cutler behind center. Cutler has the tools to finish drives, Hoyer doesn't.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 10:03 AM) It seems like he's had "discomfort" since the day he was drafted. It's always something with him. He is pretty much Mark Prior.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 08:26 AM) I would let Boston keep Moncada and Jackie Bradley Jr. I would ask for 6 players in return though Boston Receives: LHP Chris Sale White Sox Receive: CF Andrew Benintendi, 3B Rafael Devers, RHP Michael Kopech, LHP Eduardo Rodriguez, C Blake Swihart, and OF Luis Alexander Basabe. JBJ Only has 4 years of control. I'd rather have Benintendi and his full 6 years. I can't see them moving Moncada after spending the amount $ they have on him. Devers and Basabe are significant prospects with the offensive upside they provide. Rodriguez can go right into the Sox rotation. They have loved Swihart for years and he would join the big league team with Benintendi and Rodriguez. Kopech is just the type of guy that the White Sox could get the most out of. Adding him to (Hansen, Adams, Fulmer, and Stephens) would give White Sox a nice young stable of RHP. The Dodgers are another team that has what it takes. They'd need to include Urias though. I think something like Urias/Bellinger/Verdugo/Barnes/Lux would be a fantastic deal but not sure Dodgers trade all of that. That's a killer haul. I forget who made the point originally, but reading the subsequent posts, taking advantage of the Red Sox catching depth is a must, and makes a ton of sense if the Sox are going to try for a hybrid rebuild. Not many teams can show depth behind the plate. The best of the White Sox depth is years away, and a guy like Collins might not make it to the bigs as a catcher. I had no idea the depth at catcher the Red Sox had, and would rather see the Sox go after a guy like this versus another pitcher or position player at the end of the deal. Do any other teams have this kind of availability?
