QUOTE (ewokpelts @ Aug 26, 2015 -> 10:38 AM) No matter what, they need to be less lefty heavy. Four LHP starters is too much. That said, the LHP to move should be Danks. Q's contract is too team friendly. I also think rodon should be back in the minors next year. Of course Danks is the guy you want to move. Now which bad contract are you willing to take on to do it?

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Aug 26, 2015 -> 09:32 AM) http://deadspin.com/yankees-yell-at-carlos...dium=socialflow I don't see anything wrong with what Gomez did. Even though the game was out of hand, mad at himself for missing a pitch, when he has been struggling since going to the Astros. Yet, the Yankees going after him to act professional which I disagree with. Also, the slide by Gomez looked fine to be as well, just over slid it. Thoughts? Yeah, and people think Hawk is a homer...

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Aug 26, 2015 -> 07:59 AM) Lol at anyone who thinks hawk would retire quietly without the parading around and ceremonies. He deserves them anyways. Agreed.

I am guessing if anyone leaves this booth, it will be Stone, and not Hawk.

QUOTE (My_Sox_Summer @ Aug 25, 2015 -> 10:33 AM) I never liked Swish. Plus he embraces the Br-Ohio. https://usatftw.files.wordpress.com/2014/05...=448&crop=1 Belle really sticks out to me. My cousin and I were at spring training, he went to take a picture of Mr. Belle. Mr. Belle (in not such a nice way) asked if my cousin was into men and questioned why he was taking pictures of him rather than the pretty girls there. He then called him a derogatory name for a gay male and walked up to bat. He was swell! Oh to have a camera phone back then. Guys like that are exactly why stats aren't why you hate a player.

QUOTE (LDF @ Aug 25, 2015 -> 11:55 AM) talking about missing the silver bullet. i wonder if a civil suit will happen, or would kane and legal rep just buys her off. now for the big question, does the hawks still look into dealing him??? How do you get proper value for Patrick Kane?

QUOTE (woods of ypres @ Aug 25, 2015 -> 06:48 PM) I've heard rumour (not from a great source, but he does work in tv for the red Sox) that the Sox offered Orsillo the job for next year yesturday. So if what the royals chaps said is true, we may hear something soon. The White Sox offered the Red Sox announcer a job for 2016?

These are the Abreu figures that matter. Christopher Kamka ‏@ckamka 2h2 hours ago Jose Abreu vs Lefties 2014: 158 PA, .353/.437/.662, 10 HR 2015: 110 PA, .240/.309/.380, 3 HR

Markets erased what had been a 600+ point gain before the open, and had stayed around 300 points to the plus side for most of hte day in the last hour+ of trading to finish down slightly on the day.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Aug 25, 2015 -> 11:58 AM) Even if we don't sign a top guy, what if we end up trading Quintana and decide to replace him with one of the 2nd tier SP on the market this offseason? Top 10 pick is still really valuable there. I don't see us signing a guy with a big enough deal that he would have gotten a QO. Of all people Balta has repeatedly made the case about how we have no money to spend this off season, especially if Samardjiza is brought back.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 25, 2015 -> 11:53 AM) If we're talking about the difference between spots 11 and 13 you're right. If you're talking about the difference between slot 11 and slot 10, you're 100% wrong. That's the difference between being able to sign a top level free agent and not. Or the difference between a high first round pick and a 2nd round pick. That's the difference between having a Chris Sale/Carson Fulmer and giving him up. I see no scenario that has us signing that type of free agent.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Aug 25, 2015 -> 11:10 AM) I just still can't find myself to want losses this year. In the long run this team will get more from finding out what they have in a few guys and having them succeed versus moving up a few slots in the draft.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Aug 25, 2015 -> 10:47 AM) Nah, I can hate Kirk Hinrich and Gordon Beckham for what they represent. They represent people who despite being amongst the top 1% in the world at what they do, aren't as good as the rest of their peers. Totally worth hating.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Aug 25, 2015 -> 10:27 AM) Sure if you're 13 years old. Hatred is reserved for guys like Brett Myers in my mind. Bingo. Being frustrated that a guy sucks is one thing. Hatred belongs to a special group of guys who really deserve, such as the wife beaters and general scumbags.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Aug 25, 2015 -> 07:44 AM) There are many instances of people beating the S&P500 Index for a span of years -- but it's never sustained. Given enough time, the S&P500 ALWAYS wins, which is why I simply invest my 401k into that, and a foreign index. This. Totally this. Find the SP500 fund, use that as your main investment long term. Pick some other funds if you like for the rest. If you have extra money to invest, do what you want with that money. I am about to take on some lottery tickets in long term crude oil options. Make sure it is money that you can afford to lose. Historically NO ONE beats the SP, especially once trading fees are included.

QUOTE (Brian @ Aug 25, 2015 -> 05:45 AM) Tracy Morgan will host one of the first SNL's of the season. Was never really a fan of his comedy but that's awesome. I thought he was done with the limelight after his accident. Agreed. I never really found him very funny, but I am happy to see he is back. From the sounds of the accident it seems like even that is a miracle.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 24, 2015 -> 09:27 PM) It depends on the buyer. Some people get really flaky Totally this. Was the negotiation process pretty smooth? Anything weird on their end? That might tell you right there. We had a large room mirror broken before our closing, we just asked them to fix it, and they did. No big problem.

QUOTE (shysocks @ Aug 25, 2015 -> 08:47 AM) And again. Dunn, for example, should not make anybody's list, because as disappointed as one might have been with his performance, he never complained. He never made excuses or pointed the finger at anybody else or took it out on teammates (like that d***head David Wells did). Totally.

QUOTE (Lip Man 1 @ Aug 24, 2015 -> 06:14 PM) Being a bust as a player though is different from being hated. This needs to be said again.

Down 588 on the day, after being off as much as 1000 points early, and has high as down only just under 100 points. The last hour of trading had a trading range of 400ish Dow points.

This article kind of sucked, as it went with AJ. I'd be curious who everyone else would pick. For me Jaime Navarro tops the list. http://www.rantsports.com/mlb/2015/07/25/t...medium=referral

This is the first reporter I have seen that mentioned Ventura NOT being safe.
