I just don't know how long we can keep calling what he's doing "luck". It's not just since May 24th where he's been good, it's the whole season sans 3 starts.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 7, 2014 -> 05:31 PM) Goodbye, DeAza...nice knowing you. Or Dunn. Whatever. It would be better to see him limited to DH duties, imo, although they'd have to talk to Paulie....Konerko's wishes shouldn't get in the way of preparing Avisail to hit the ground running in 2015. I'm sure PK doesn't even care. He doesn't wanna be a full time player. There's sure to be a hole or 2 opening up for him.

Wild card here we come!

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 7, 2014 -> 03:34 PM) Some rumors Cavs about to announce major trade. If it is Klove, Lebron can just head on down. Where are you hearing this?? I'm following boat loads of NBA guys and haven't heard a whisper.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 7, 2014 -> 03:08 PM) I just stated AGAIN that it is a matter of negative s*** being the norm and cool and being accepted and anything positive like religion merely mocked. The basic tenets of religion - the Golden Rule - are ASSETS to society. Yet any mention of religion is scoffed at, mocked. Any mention of violence? Bring it on. Religion is something that some people don't want forced on them....Violence is just reality.

Now Granger is heading to the Heat for 2/4 .....

McRoberts to the Heat. Full mid level exception, 4/23

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 7, 2014 -> 01:02 PM) I feel like the La La angle is a bit overplayed. They're rich as hell, they can fly to wherever the hell they want when they want. Just because Melo would play somewhere else doesn't mean they have to move there and stay there permanently. Could be...Just speculating... Bosh supposedly being offered a max deal by Houston.....Should that happen does anyone know if they'll be able to afford Parsons? He's been my plan C after Melo/Love for awhile now.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 7, 2014 -> 12:48 PM) I don't see the appeal in the Lakers at all. They suck. Kobe and Nash can't stay healthy. Gasol's not that good anymore and he might not even re-sign. Julius Randall's a nice piece, but he's a rookie. They don't have a center. So yeah...great roster. Even NY's a better situation. Oh and they also don't have a coach right now. Why the hell would you join them? That has La La written all over it...Happy wife, happy life right?

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 7, 2014 -> 10:16 AM) Strange fit to bring in Melo to play 3 and Lebron to 4 or vice-versa. Bosh did all the dirty work for that team that will be missed. After seeing Lebron shut down Rose a few years back I think it's possible he could play the 2.

Finally won a matchup in the soxtalk league Sad sad season after being in 1st most of the year last year. Just 33 games outta the 6 spot though...That's doable right???

Scariest movie of 2014???

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 6, 2014 -> 06:58 PM) This has to be some kind of joke. It's why I take all the defensive metrics with a grain of salt until they figure out a way to improve them. FWIW it's still a negative rating lol....nevertheless still 8th highest....I have no clue how that is all calculated so I'll go no further than that. I remember last year most here said he'd be fine in LF but he's an awful CFer.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 6, 2014 -> 06:45 PM) That and the fact that Carlos Sanchez, Micah Johnson, Marcus Semien, Tyler Saladino and Leury Garcia can all play his position. And DeAza's a waste of salary this year as well since there's no way he's in the long-term plans. Whereas we have Danks, a 29 year old Michael Taylor (keep reminding everyone Viciedo's still only 25), Sierra and Tuiasasopo to replace Dayan. Not to mention that we have to replace Dunn as well...with who??? Not if he keeps hitting like he has the last month. I also saw that he's the 8th rated LFer in the league defensively this year.

Lame

Steak Sauce!

Defense is contagious??

I

that's about the 3rd or 4th time this series Cano has played Beckham perfectly.

Atta boy Surkamp....Lefties now 0-7 vs him. Just gotta get the control together.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 6, 2014 -> 03:02 PM) Nieto double clutched. Do not get that. Probably didn't have the ears...Better to double clutch than throw it into CF.

Walker!!!

QUOTE (Charlie Haeger's Knuckles @ Jul 6, 2014 -> 12:41 PM) Miller is a free agent after this season. Boston is in pretty bad shape. 8 games out of their division, 9 games out of the WC. They have a worse W/L than the White Sox. I doubt they are legitimately adding anything. If the Sox add a lefthanded arm for the bullpen, it would seem based on Hahn's short history, someone younger and pre-arb (like Luis Avilan, for example) Had not looked at his free agent status....He'd be a real good pick up. I doubt they add anything either, just going off what was being reported here.
