Yelich looks awful in the field. Not Palka bad yet. -

Which is odd because when he was here the first time, the team was ripped for using him out of the bullpen. He is just a mediocre pitcher who had a few nice moments, and being lefty and a good guy will get him plenty more opportunities to show more of the same. -

They are 18th in the league in revenue, and 14th in projected value according to Forbes. That is about as middle as it gets.
-
Maybe as to how they are projected, but I bet many players from this draft have better careers than the worst of the top 4. The Sox have to find these guys. Obviously, while still the biggest crapshoot draft in sports, projections have seemingly improve a great deal, I was reading an article on the Tigers 1976 draft. They picked second and selected a bust, but still drafted several contributors to their WS championship team, including two HOfers in Morris and Trammell. They also drafted another HOFer that year in Ozzie Smith, but couldn’t sign him. It would be nice if the Sox got a player or 2 in the middle rounds that turned out a steal. It seems to have been a while.

FS: We've Suffered Enough - Call Up Eloy
Dick Allen replied to NorthSideSox72's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Even if you want to be a badass, 16-37 suggests this season is over. No use spending resources now for a few more wins (including IMO Eloy and Kopech control) that can be spent later when the team has a fighting chance to actually do something. I do agree the rebuild is far from a sure thing. Kopech could be as good as Sale. Lopez could be as good as Q. Eloy could put up a 6.0 WAR season like Eaton in 2016. That’s a lot of coulds. Even if it happens, they are back to where they started. They couldn’t build a winner with those 3 signed cheaply, I see no reason to think when the time comes to put up or shut up, the White Sox have the correct people in place to take them over the top, let alone keep them there. -
The "prize" for losing 95 games last year was the 4th pick. If they lost 84, all their other picks in the draft would have been available for them to draft. If they do go under slot, it better be for a guy they have in their top 5 or 7 who will sign for less, and they were virtually assured the savings would be well spent on a target they are absolutely sure will be available. . Otherwise, cheering for losses is even more ridiculous.

LMAO. No one plays victim more than you. And character destruction is exactly what you are attempting to do. Your act is old and tired.

I would think you would be outraged. He actually had his phone tapped, unlike a certain person with bone spurs who claimed as much. And oh, btw, never apologized for his falsehood. Then, this tape is released to hurt JB Pritzker. How did that get out? Some bad people. Really bad. All democrats...oh wait.

Scott Pruitt spent $1,560 on 12 fountain pens with his signature on them. Only the best people. Swamp is drained.

My logic with him is, have him do some time, which he has done. I believe he's in a Club Fed so it's not like he's doing regular time anyway. And he poses no danger to society, so let him go home. Someone will hire him to do something I am sure. Maybe on the radio or internet. I don't think it should come down to a pardon. The question I have for Trump if these aren't a message to his friends in trouble, why now? If, as the stable genius claims, Blago should never have been jailed, why didn't he commute the sentence earlier, like when he was doing Sheriff Joe a solid?

FS: We've Suffered Enough - Call Up Eloy
Dick Allen replied to NorthSideSox72's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Exactly. This he has to be up in the big leagues to develop properly is bunk. His development apparently wasn't stunted when he was hurt last season. It apparently wasn't stunted when he was hurt this season. I hope they send him to AAA and call him up a couple weeks into next year. It probably won't happen that way, but hurting his development is laughable. If he's the star we all hope, it won't hurt him at all. -
WH demands apology, yet Ted Nugent gets a WH invite where he posed by a picture of Hillary Clinton. He's also said this in the past, without apology:: “You probably can’t use the term ‘toxic c***’ in your magazine, but that’s what she is. Her very existence insults the spirit of individualism in this country,” he said. “This b**** is nothing but a two-bit whore for Fidel Castro.” Nugent has stirred plenty of controversy with his remarks in the past, as when he spoke about killing then-President Barack Obama at a National Rifle Association meeting in 2012. He never apologized for that comment.

Looks like Colangelo's wife was behind the burner accounts. -
A hitch isn't necessarily a bad thing. Fangraphs had an article about hitches a couple of years ago.
-
As long as we are playing whataboutism, why is it assumed Trump and his family are the first to have to deal with vile insults? Does anyone remember the attacks on Chelsea Clinton as a little girl? Are we forgetting how much crap Obama was given, even by the current guy who demands apologies but does exactly the same thing and has never apologized? I will give Trump credit for one thing. He can pull the wool over so many eyes. His trick is simple. Whatever he is trying to get away with he accuses others of doing, and everyone looks the other way.

D'Souza was convicted of campaign finance fraud, correct? Isn't that what Cohen is looking at?
-
I'm in the minority. I don't mind Blago getting out. He isn't violent, he isn't going to hurt anyone. He isn't going to be able to hold public office. He's just burning taxpayer money sitting in a cell. Let his daughters have their dad back is what I say. If there is concern, make him wear an ankle bracelet. And frankly, his crime IMO isn't exactly unique to him. I would imagine many politicians have tried to sell appointments. In fact, probably thousands have done what busted him and faced no penalty. Obviously not necessarily a Senate seat, but the exact same crime.

That's what I don't get. Who is going to be sitting there because they required $4 million?

Trump may commute Blogo's sentence.
