Also, since everyone loves when I cherry pick....Throw out his 6 truly dreadful starts and he had a 3.18 ERA for 26 starts (164 innings)....Call those innings luck if you must, but as a 4th/5th starter I'll take a guy who gets shelled once a month if he's also keeping us in games the other 4-5. His contract does change things a bit, so with that said I'm cool with trading him for a decent offer. Don't think we need to just dump him or that trading him should be a priority though.

But 20 quality starts guys!!! That's only 1 less than Sale and Q! (Not sure if serious)

QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ Oct 20, 2014 -> 09:09 AM) Cuesta is probably not going to fill a need for the Sox. Silverio would be interesting as a guy that could come out of the pen next season and perhaps transition into the rotation after that. Curious as to why you say that? If he can't indeed play the OF then I agree because I doubt either he or Abreu become a full time DH. That's why I was asking about the report of his ability to play the OF. I know he's RH but so is Tomas. Is he simply not ML ready? I can't find much about the guy.

Has this Jozzen Cuesta fellow been talked about on here yet? Can't find much on him other than he's a "Hulking" 25 year old first basemen who can play in the OF as well. Clicked on several links and only one talked about his ability to play the OF....What type of D are we talking here? Here's a BP article if we have any subscribers kind enough to share some info... http://www.baseballprospectus.com/article....articleid=24562 Dude looks like a beast.

1. Rodon 2. Anderson 3. Johnson 4. Montas (I love Micah, and wanna see Montas repeat before I put him higher. If he repeats I could see him push Anderson for 2) 5. Danish 6. Adams 7. Hawkins 8. Bassitt (Can't ignore what he's done as a starter the last 2 years in the minors) 9. Davidson 10. Trey

QUOTE (LDF @ Oct 19, 2014 -> 07:32 PM) is there an agreement that the players get rotated around in their position? Well in this case, when the #13 overall prospect in all of baseball is on the same team and plays the same position as Anderson, it's obvious they're gonna play him (Seager) at SS most/some of the time. Had either of the 2 been on a different team things would probably be different.

Fuller broke his hand and suffered a hip pointer.....If he's out for the Pats and GB?? Forget about it.

Had a big long rant written but no body cares...All I'll say is I hate myself. 1. for changing my fanduel lineup and 2. for writing down and keeping my original lineup. Seriously. If Antonio Brown goes off tomorrow I'm gonna smash my f***in computer.

QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 19, 2014 -> 04:18 PM) Jesus. It's an f'n game. People take it too personally. You should check out talkbears.com....s*** gets ridiculous over there.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 18, 2014 -> 11:21 PM) What about all the guys destined to someday be White Sox. Are they free agents? ... • Torii Hunter. (get him!) • Grandy. (not as high on him as I used to be) • John Buck (hate him) • Ethier or Kemp (seems like we're destined to get one or both someday) Would you like Rael Ibanez as our fourth outfielder? Get rid of Danks and let Mr. Team Chemistry join the Sox? Or make Rael a bench coach? While we're talking old folks, can Cuddyer still play an adequate OF? Perhaps as the main DH in the whole rotating DH thing that everyone wants. He can rotate between DH, 1B and the OF. Maybe even some emergency 3B as well.

QUOTE (LDF @ Oct 19, 2014 -> 09:31 AM) re: Anderson, did you notice that the last 2 games he was being use as a DH only? I hope that he can get more rep at ss to work on his defense. Ya, having Seager on the team ruined his chances of playing there consistently. Seager was on the team last year as well and kinda ruined Semiens chance of playing there consistently as well.

I have a plethora of fringy WRs that I'm struggling to pick from. Sadly need 2 of em. Quick- T. Smith- Beckham- Hunter-Royal Leaning towards Quick and Beckham Doug Baldwin is also available...Pick him up over Royal? Time to give up on Smith?

Rachel Nichols ‏@Rachel__Nichols 32m32 minutes ago Well, then... RT @mikefreemanNFL: Seahawks team source: "Percy didn't want to be here. We accommodated him." "Have fun being happy on the Jets"

JIMMY G. BUCKETS!! How many people gave up on this game?

1. Bullpen 2. OFer 3. Bullpen I can care less is we go into the season with Sale-Q-Danks-Noesi-Bassitt (With Rodon eventually taking Danks or Bassitts spot) with Viceido as our DH as long as long as the bullpen is improved dramatically and Tank isn't in LF. That of course isn't ideal and not what's gonna happen but yeah.

Bassitt went 2.2 giving up a hit and his 1st walk while striking out 4. 10/1 K/BB, 5 hits, in 7 innings so far. He's been impressive.

QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 15, 2014 -> 08:33 AM) Yahoo waiver is screwed up today. Taking my league elsewhere next year after this and they screwed up our draft. I'm seeing that now...I'm unable to add certain players. I'm assuming those guys have been claimed on waivers???

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Oct 15, 2014 -> 08:40 AM) But if Viciedo played high-end defense, would you dislike him so much? I know I wouldn't. Ya, I suppose I wouldn't....How much do you think Rasmus gets though?

QUOTE (shysocks @ Oct 15, 2014 -> 08:24 AM) I'd have to watch it again but I thought I saw a few people reaching up. It was a lot harder for the KC fans to interfere because they were below field level rather than above it. Was just about to say this. Twas a lot different than the bartman play.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Oct 15, 2014 -> 07:37 AM) Marcus Stroman also comes to mind...Roy Oswalt. Pedro Martinez. Gio Gonzalez. Cueto and Sonny Gray also come to mind. I'd take Filthy Fulmer in a heartbeat.

Fantastic...What am I missing with the bald Orton though?

Rasmus' D would be nice, but offensively he's basically been Viceido 3 of the last 4 years. If he comes rather cheap( I'm talkin 7-8N) I guess it wouldn't be the worst signing though.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Oct 14, 2014 -> 06:47 PM) Obviously I want Martin, but I acknowledge that he may end up too expensive. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Oct 14, 2014 -> 06:53 PM) Victor Martinez and Yasmani Tomas are undoubtedly out of our price range/off the fa price tag insanity meter. I know history kind of shows otherwise (when was the last time the Sox had a payroll of ~50M though) but with the payroll where it is I have a feeling no one is gonna be "too expensive". They won't spend just to spend but if the player makes sense I really think they'll go all out to get em. I've been all about VMart, and if he tests the market I want the Sox to go all out. Even if he gets 20M a year that still doesn't cripple the Sox financially.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Oct 14, 2014 -> 05:00 PM) Call FanDuel immediately. The last thing you need is for them to debit your account with a $90 overdraft and then you not find out about it until it's at a collection agency or something like that. You can screw up a lot in life and still recover, but a s***ty credit score makes life really, really, really hard. It's ironic you say that because when I say I really need $$ it's because I do indeed have an overdraft fee from awhile ago and owe a bank ample amounts of money....So ya, I'm gonna call them.

Uhhh, I don't have a paypal account so I had to get my winnings from fanduel via check....I withdrew 10 bucks and I just got a check for 100.....What would you do? I could reallllly use the $$. Don't wanna be a "scumbag" though.
