QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jun 26, 2015 -> 02:37 PM) do you think members of the Chicago White Sox read their Soxtalk report cards and cry? Along with all of the great advice they get...

QUOTE (Vance Law @ Jun 26, 2015 -> 02:35 PM) Have there been any reports on what the hell is exactly wrong with Alexei? He looks like he's gone off his meds or something. Just playing badly and that has snowballed and messed him up mentally? That is exactly what it looks like to me. Something is bothering him on the field. The last time we saw this was with his father in law.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 26, 2015 -> 02:37 PM) Bruins trade Dougie Hamilton to Calgary for the 15th overall pick and two second rounders. Wow, between Boychuck, Seguin, and now Hamilton, they have traded a lot of talent away. Things like that make it amazing how well the Hawks have juggled the salary cap.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jun 26, 2015 -> 09:44 AM) I've been saying this for a long time. There should be no government recognition of marriage. People can enter into whatever legal contracts they want that provide any or all of the arrangements that come automatically with a marriage. What other contract law should the government ignore?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 26, 2015 -> 12:49 PM) You know the amazing thing? We're human beings, we're allowed to apply judgment to these things. That's of course why the slippery slope argument is silly, but it would still be nice if we could slippery slope our way to generally more equitable treatment of african americans and others generally. Except where the government applies it for us...

QUOTE (SleepyWhiteSox @ Jun 26, 2015 -> 09:42 AM) Kinda sad how much joy the illini fans are getting over that, all over a silly little hat thing... So true.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 26, 2015 -> 05:45 AM) ‏@BPortistime Bulls Nation sorry for the tweets I sent 4 years ago. I was a boy then. I'm a man now. And a Bull. DRose, Pau, what kinda donuts yall like? Nicely done kid. Bravo.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 25, 2015 -> 08:59 AM) Two things I would do, starting today. Hire Jose Molina or Yorvit Torrealba to work with Sox catchers on improved pitch framing. QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jun 25, 2015 -> 04:23 PM) I endorse this message Flowers and Soto rank 5th and 7th in the AL currently according to this page. 12th and 14 if you scan for all baseball. http://www.statcorner.com/CatcherReport.php

Doug Padilla ‏@ESPNChiSox 6m6 minutes ago Ventura, on walking Cabrera to put the winning run at 2B in the 10th. "You don't tug on Superman's cape."

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 25, 2015 -> 04:06 PM) It's all pitch calling imo. His stuff is exactly the same. His fastball is the best 93 mph fb you'll ever see, but they seem way over reliant on it. It needs to be deceptive and it isn't when it's all he's throwing. Even that last ab was nothing but fastballs. Would love to see his pitch % vs his time with the Yankees if anyone has that. I didn't see the game, but Darrin Jackson said his cutter wasn't as sharp as usual. He said earlier in the season it had much more bite.

And BTW, if you ever wanted an example of why "save" is a terrible stat. See today.

Gutsy call to put the winning run on 2b.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 25, 2015 -> 03:42 PM) Wondering a little bit if Bonifacio should have been used here. [delete]

DIRTY SANCHEZ!

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 25, 2015 -> 02:14 PM) maybe my memory is foggy, but I believe the significant underslot to Aiken offer only came once they realize his medicals were f***ed up. It wasnt their plan at the time of the draft. They had a deal in place for I think $6.5 million, which was millions under slot. After the injury they dropped their offer to the draft protection minimum ($3.1m?) and then came back up to $5 million at the last minute.
