  1. They used to employ another one, Josh Phegley. Occupation catcher. Difficulties..catching pitches
  2. What inning will Jason mention the Tribe's bullpen ERA?
  3. I know there aren't many really good all around catchers, and I know the Sox have been bitten by the injury bug and suspension, but it's hard to believe but true, they have someone even worse both offensively and defensively than Omar Narvaez on the roster
  4. Enrique Peña Nieto ✔@EPN President @realDonaldTrump: NO. Mexico will NEVER pay for a wall. Not now, not ever. Sincerely, Mexico (all of us). 8:25 PM - May 29, 2018 136K 50.9K people are talking about this But Trump promised.
  5. If a team would have some interest in him if he was hot, and he doesn't cost anything, why would they wait to see if he could get hot with another team and then trade for him when they could just bring him on board now and see what they have? Reminds me of when Hawk picked up George Foster and Steve Carlton when he was GM. The one big difference was they weren't blocking anyone like Hanley would be doing here. I saw enough of Hanley loafing when he was playing LF a couple of years ago to realize he isn't going to help anyone win.
  6. At least they are consistent. They started out 8-18, and have been 8-18 since.
  7. So you would rather Hanley DH than Davidson or move Davidson to 3B and bench Yolmer? If, the answer is somehow yes, why?
  8. So Trump "had no time" to comment about Roseanne yesterday according to Sarah, as he was too busy with the economy, NK, generally making America great again . Yet he had time to go to Nashville and remind everyone that he won the election in 2016, call, Hillary crooked, tell everyone that the FBI and CIA are out to get him, call out Jay Z, because he swears not because of his skin color, again, play all of his hits. Now he has time for a sit down with Kim Kardashian. Hey rabbit, what would you think if Obama did this?
  9. So the Sox bench Yolmer or Davidson to give Hanley ABs so they may flip him if everything goes perfectly for a guy we will never hear from again. That is why Paul Sullivan writes about baseball and doesn’t make decisions about baseball.
  10. Always kind of fascinated me that Trump and the right embraced Roseanne considering her take on the National Anthem. I would guess if it were Bill Maher doing the same thing, kicking him out of the country would be discussed on Hannity every night.
  11. Donny Jr. retweeted the Soros is a Nazi tweet even Roseanne deleted. Soros was 2 years old when the concetration camps opened.
  12. Trump said he was the reason the show was a success. He won't be happy with this news. Another conspiracy I suppose. I'm sure there are many fine racists. BTW, not the first time Roseanne compared a black woman to an ape on twitter. Called Susan Rice one in 2013.
  13. I am all for no one having a gun, but I realize that is not a realistic dream. All I know is when the NRA has Pence speak, and wants to make sure no one gets shot, they check for guns at the door. They do the same at Trump rallies. Both places, their "good guys" would outnumber their "bad guys" by quite a large margin, however, they don't use the more good guys with guns just keeps the bad guys away theory there. It's for kids in schools. No one has a gun, no one gets shot.
  14. What is the deal with Trump supporters? One of the more famous, Rosanne Barr tweeted this about Valerie Jarrett "muslim brotherhood & planet of the apes had a baby=vj, Why would anyone think that would be a good idea to put out to everyone?
  15. He was pretty buried with the Sox and they probably wanted to do him a solid. He's an 0-8 away from hitting .267 with Milwaukee, so the HOF is still a ways away for him.
  16. It doesn't make sense. More players are available the higher you pick.
  17. Easy money. It's just given away to someone of my intellect.
  18. And the first thing they did when they acquired him was send him to AAA. It's Greensox.
  19. I called the Cleveland /GS final before the season started. I also have GS winning it all. I am clearly not a pleb.
  20. I also think Duquette and Buck are both gone in Baltimore before the season ends. As many train wrecks as there are in MLB right now, that situation is going to wind up the biggest.
  21. Renteria has been a major league coach or manager for 10 seasons. The teams he was with had 1 winning season out of 10. I'm not goofy enough to think this roster should win, and probably bringing someone else in before they are good enough to win will put a black stain on that individual. I just think all the Ricky is the best guy for this team talk even when they are ready to compete isn't really based on anything of substance. I am sure he's a great guy with a lot of energy. I am sure most players really like him. That doesn't make him championship manager material. I think a lot of his reputation is Cubs related.Everyone felt sorry for him when he was let go. They made it seem like the stars were aligned so properly, and that was the only reason he was let go. The Cubs went out of their way to get Maddon. They saw the issues. His bullpen usage was questioned. He obviously loves the bunt. In no way am I blaming him for the White Sox sucking. But I do think they have to make a change by the time they are not sucking or they are going to pay for it.
  22. It wasn't the first time for Baez.
  23. Rick Renteria is Spanish for Buddy Bell, He isn’t going anywhere any time soon, but he should. Even his rule rule which I agree, run the ball out or sit, if the Sox get to where they want to be, he loses leverage. It is easy to enforce on young guys trying to establish themselves while playing games where it doesn’t matter if you win or lose. Once they start to contend, it isn’t like he can bench Moncada in the first inning because he half assed it down the line on a routine grounder to 2B.
