  1. Madrigal OR Stiever? Those are vastly different levels of prospect. I would be willing to move Madrigal for Musgrove if they can find a way to get Adam Frazier back. No sense creating a hole at 2B just to get a #4 guy in our rotation.
  2. Was hoping and preferred it was Cal Kestis instead of Luke, but can't say I was disappointed. And watching reaction videos to Star Wars fans bawling their eyes out when Luke showed up was pretty cool, so I'm happy for those people.
  3. Depends on what you mean, I guess. Most talented had got to be Chris Sale. He obviously doesn't have the longevity of a Buehrle or Konerko, but he was the best and most dominant player we've had since Frank. A legitimate MVP/Cy Young choice every year should be the criteria. That's Sale.
  4. I have no reason to be upset with Rick Hahn, and I'll forgive JR if he actually loosens up his grip on the pocketbook and this team is an annually top 10 in payroll like they should be. Winning a championship despite a middling payroll doesn't give me any reason to forgive JR. Spending money, does.
  5. I disagree. He usually tells fanbases how they need to pay him more attention in social media and "step their game up" with the amount of attention and begging for him to come to their teams. He even complained about one of the fanbases that they went almost a whole day without courting him. I'm shocked at how many people still don't realize Bauer is a giant douchebag. My favorite is when he plays victim talking about being bullied as a kid, and so now he bullies others to inspire kids that get bullied that they too can one day have a big enough platform to become the bully and not the bullied. He sucks.
  6. I would do that if the Cubs are throwing in a ton of cash. He's got 3 yrs/$59M left over. That completely reasonable except for the fact that he's 34 already. I don't know if many people realize Darvish is older than Lance Lynn. Lynn has thrown 1847 innings as a professional. Darvish has thrown 1127 in the MLB and another 1268 in Japan. That's a total of 2400 innings.
  7. I lost the 1st RD of the playoffs because Herbert got 2 pts and the Chiefs lied about Edwards-Helaire's health, so I started him and he didn't even play. The guy I made the trade with for Herbert is now in the Championship game due in part to Mike Davis, whom I gave him in that trade. Welp.
  8. I could be wrong, but I think Martino is the same guy who shit on the Sox during the Machado sweepstakes and said the Sox have no chance of signing anyone big and that players don't want to play for them. I'm paraphrasing since it's been a couple of years, but it was along those lines.
  9. Not always. For high end superstars, yes. But for smaller deals the team will sometimes tell them they have xxx to spend on that position, so they got 24 hours, 48 hours, whatever to respond or else they will give it to the next guy. Otherwise, no one would ever sign until February.
  10. Interesting. Last I heard the descendants/community for Chief Black Hawk was still approving of their use. I'm not able to read the article right now, but that must have changed I guess.
  11. When did that happen? Spotrac still lists MVP Sports Group as his agency.
  12. My off-season plan included Colome + Yates. If it's Colome + Yates or just Hendricks, I'll probably take Colome + Yates. Although there is no reason why the Sox can't afford any 2 of those 3 guys anyway.
  13. I saw someone suggest the Cleveland Americans I thought that would actually be a nice gesture.
  14. What is the true meaning of Blackhawks that you find offensive that the Native American community does not?
  15. I'm never surprised when I see a terrible take and then I look at the name. Is this a shtick or that a coincidence?
  16. Ok.....I'm just following the exercise the OP presented of having $30M to spend. ?
  17. You know it would have been even better to have $38M to spend $25M on Springer and $13M on Hendriks....but you know...Adam Eaton, I guess.
  18. I listen to this every year. Got it going in my car right now.
  19. I have no idea how to even word this for a proper Google search, but the bottom line is that my wife is launching an online store tomorrow to make and sell matching bandanas and scrunchies for dogs and their owner. What we are looking for is an online tool where we can input the dimensions of her fabric, and the different sizes of rectangles she is using, to figure out how to maximize the fabric to the amount of bandanas and scrunchies she can make. I've crudely done some napkin sketches for her, but not all fabrics are the same size and she made need more of one size and less of another, which would need her to rearrange all the shapes. I'm looking for a website or program that we can easily visualize this on. I know one has to exist, I just can't think of how to properly search for one. Extremely specific and odd topic, I know, but figured it was worth a shot?
  20. Can someone post a link to the interview when it gets posted?
  21. Yup. I apologized and gave him his props on Twitter for it. Credit due, credit earned.
  22. Colas was wearing a Yankees hat yesterday. I think he just wears the swag he gets from teams while he still can.
  23. Welp, I was dead wrong. Props to NotCishek. Wild times.
  24. Well holy fuck, that's more shocking to me than the Lynn trade itself.
