JR being incapacitated.

Some of LaRussa's LF with the Sox include Ralph Garr, Ron Kittle and Tom Paciorek, and of course Carlton Fisk. Throw Eloy with those guys, isn't it at least even money Vaughn can give you what they gave you defensively in LF?

I have never seen anyone tear their pec hanging over the fence. Normally, that would classify it a fluke injury. But I don't think there is a fluke injury for Eloy.

Hopefully Otto Porter can make his way to his physical without getting hurt.

Maybe it won't be that bad. If you remember 2005, Buehrle supposedly broke his foot, and was going to miss a lot of time. He wound up starting on Opening Day.

This is the first time I have ever seen an injury like this on a play like that. Only Eloy.

i just can't see paying him a ton of money. When he's healthy, he's a really nice player, but I don't think a winning one.

They can't trade their 2022 pick. If they had to give up a first rounded, it would have to be 2025 at the earliest.

Coby isn't a point guard. I still think he can be a bigger Ben Gordon. I never understood the Wendell Carter love anyone had. I know he was very young when drafted and obviously still is, he just seems like he is what he is to me.

If Lucroy makes the roster and Collins is sent down, they either need to trade Collins or have him change positions. There is nothing more he could have done to make the team. If they choose a replacement level at best vet over him, it's time to move on, either from behind the plate or the organization.

8-15 with Lauri in the line up. 9-11 when he's hurt. He's a good player, but he doesn't fit. Of course most, if not all of the current roster will be gone the next time the Bulls are a serious basketball team.

Not good.

I disagree. The guy doesn't know his personnel. At some point, you pound your fist, say we need an OL a lot more than we need Robert Quinn. He was hired in large part because he really liked Mitch. Maybe Mitch was going to suck no matter what. But he never wavered until this year and he is the reason Foles is on the roster. Foles was a waste of not just money, but a draft pick as well. His offense is not good. Seems like a nice guy, but IMO, the guy is an assistant coach. A guy who really knew what he was doing would make it clear to Ryan Pace he isn't the smartest guy in the room. It is really appalling George McCaskey is wasting another year with these clowns.

The problem is Nagy isn't going to be able to develop a lower round QB. But they should take one. Maybe the next guy can.

Absolutely. I am also with you thinking something seems a little off about this one. If he did assault all these women, lock him up. But a few BSers will take the whole thing down. I also don't want to be that guy that thinks women in massage parlors can't get assualted, because obviously they can. And obviously not everyone working in one is working their dream job, many are there against their own will.

They all supposedly met him through Instagram, so there is reason to believe none are immigrants working in massage parlors, making money giving handys.

I am all for listening to victims, but these Watson lawsuits seem like quite the pile on. Now there are 16. No one came forward, now 16. Just doesn't seem realistic to me. Probably the saddest thing is if a couple of these are true, if there are several that are all BS, it will make the true ones look like BS.

At restaurants, fully vaccinated people don't count towards the capacity percentage. I wonder if this will be true for stadiums. Although it would be pretty hard to enforce and determine what you would have available. On a personal note, I will have had my 2 shots with a week in before my first game. By the second homestand, I should be a max coverage. That makes me very happy.

Won on opening day 1-0. Won the first game back from the All Star break 1-0. Clinched the WS with a 1-0 win. What are the odds?

I read where the Bulls were offering Sato and a 2nd round pick. That won't get it done.

He can definitely coach. I wonder if his stint at ISU would be held against him, and you always have to wonder when guys move up in class, if they can land the next class of player. See Licklighter, Todd.

The consensus seems to be this will be the end of Porter Moser at Loyola. I think the guy can really coach, I just wonder if he will be able to recruit enough if he lands a huge job. DePaul keeps being mentioned. Apparently they can pay more than Loyola, but if I were him and my choice was DePaul or Loyola, I think I would stay. The other thing I am wondering if when he was recruiting Krutwig, if he told him he would go to 2 Sweet 16s and at least on Final Four if he signed with Loyola. If he did, they would have thought he was a whackado.

Loyola does play good defense, but Illinois still beat themselves. They played uninspired on the defensive end, even called out by the CBS crew, and were careless with the ball. When a center is stripping an All American guard twice out on the floor, it isn’t coaching, it is the All American not mentally where he needed to be.

Loyola did execute well, but IMO, the Illini made it fairly easy for them. They backed off on defense, and didn’t execute on offense. I think they took Loyola lightly. You can blame the coach, but I don’t think there is a coach alive that has coached a really good team that hasn’t come out flat once or twice vs. an opponent. Their intensity level was nowhere near where it was once they really got cooking this season. Once you get down to Loyola by double figures, you’re in trouble. The CBS experts thought they would snap out of it at halftime. No dice.

The Illini lacked energy. I think they thought this wasn't going to be much of a game. I know I figured they would blow them out. Loyola plays too good of defense. Even if you are making your shots you aren't scoring much. GA Tech had 49 points with 6 or 7 minutes left and they were shooting 57%.
