You guys gotta work on your dreams.

For Crain Rock already said prepared to be underwhelmed.

QUOTE (Frank_Thomas35 @ Jul 29, 2013 -> 11:21 AM) Sounds right, would be a sick job. I would kill to do that. Hell you don't even have to pay me just tip me out at the end of the year! The clubbies do all kinds of odd jobs...gas up the car, get me a sandwich from down the street, make sure the right brand of gum is in the locker, polish up the shoes, etc. It's not the easiest job in the world, but the players tip well (for the most part) from whati've read over the years.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 29, 2013 -> 09:46 AM) I agree. I am sure they have a contingency plan in place for Jake being traded; however, you've got to plan on him starting tomorrow, otherwise, I really think it weakens your negotiating position. If I remember correctly, Rienzo or Johnson are on the same day rotation as Peavy. And there's always Axelrod. Unfortunately.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 06:36 PM) I did see that. My favorite part is how he looked around to see if any cameras were on him before he ate it. Oops. The Tigers just got Veras from Houston, so forget about them in a Texas 3 way.

QUOTE (Dunt @ Jul 26, 2013 -> 08:35 AM) I'm starting to think my ideal deadline would look something like this: -Peavy and cash to the Red Sox for Cecchini -Rios and cash to the Pirates for Dickerson and Kingham -Reed and Lindstrom to LA for Joc Pederson With that plan, you are keeping your defense up the middle in Alexei, Gordon, and De Aza and then in 2014, you are giving Cecchini a chance at winning the 3B job, Pederson either LF or RF, Dickerson the 1B job, and Kingham could break the rotation in 2015. De Aza cannot be included in any plan based on keeping my defense up the middle.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 24, 2013 -> 09:44 AM) I can't believe you guys are forgetting about Jaime Navarro. No matter how hard I try, I can't forget Jaime Navarro.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 23, 2013 -> 06:39 PM) I can't think of any major leaguers who couldn't control their weight well enough to hurt themselves considering they have a whole training staff dedicated to keeping them healthy and the whole " I can make millions of $ if I don't stuff my face " thing going for them. We hear about Fielder and Cabrera , know how big Cecil Fielder got, see ST pics of Cabrera looking fat and yet they produce year after year. So you're just going to worry about a perceived problem with a guy now ? You know, Bobby Jencks put on a few pounds.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 23, 2013 -> 11:52 AM) Well, he's definitely not a CF, and his baserunning has left something to be desired, to say the least, but those things can be corrected. The important thing is that he can actually hit and steal bases, and he is relatively affordable. Those things are not necessarily commonplace. He gets bad reads in CF, and his baserunning instincts are borderline laughable. How (and when) could that be correctable? He was cheap to get and we maxed out his value. I won't miss him.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 23, 2013 -> 09:33 AM) I find it unbelievable that the Yanks would take on 15 mill of salary for next year I read in the Tribune that te Cubs were paying most of the salary for both years.

He gawn. For Brandon Jacobs

No Paulie in the lineup. -
It's on delay tonight. 10 central.

QUOTE (oldsox @ Jan 15, 2013 -> 07:14 AM) Frank wasn't that bad in the field. He was very good at trapping short throws. He could not throw, but teams rarely took advantage of that, which always surprised me. Does anyone here remember him throwing to third? His throws to third usually went to the left fielder first.

In Twitterverse, someone guessed Blum, and he answered "Hell NO". Gotta love that.

And in the first half, Hermanson.

QUOTE (Baron @ Dec 22, 2012 -> 01:28 PM) George Ofman @georgeofman Here are Kubel's numbers at the cell. 133 AB,.270, 14HR, 41RBI. Triple the ABs and see what you get. https://twitter.com/georgeofman How would he get 400 ABs at home?

Hands down the smartest player I've seen in a Sox uni. Thanks AJ, especially for 2005.
