whitesoxdave ‏@barstoolWSD 11m11 minutes ago Hearing Brett Lawrie may have been non-tendered, working to confirm this #WhiteSox

Updates on Ramos are that he could be back in the end of April, instead of sometime in June. I'll adjust my offer for him accordingly to 1 yr/$12M instead of 1 yr/$8M.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Nov 12, 2016 -> 02:25 AM) I would be pissed if the Tigers ended up with De Leon. I really like that kid. No doubt that Verlander had an amazing year last season, his best in a while, but he will be 34 before the seasons starts and still makes $28M a year for through age 36 season, plus a $22M vesting option for age 37 season. Obviously not saying he's a salary dump, but I feel like the Dodgers can hold on to their top pieces if they wanted Verlander. The worst part would be it's one less suitor to drive up prices for Sale and Q for the Red Sox/Yankees/Astros/Rangers, etc.

QUOTE (brett05 @ Nov 11, 2016 -> 12:37 PM) Joe was calling for people to keep fighting for their beliefs in a productive manner. To not turn tail and give up. *shaking my head* I wish Joe Walsh would have clarified if he meant actually protesting or not. It would settle this whole argument. Oh wait. He did.

Not sure if this was mentioned yet, but Joey DiMichele won the Rawlings Gold Glove for 2B among ALL minor leaguers. That's damn impressive. https://twitter.com/johnmanuelba/status/797236213803585536

Finally saw a Model X in the wild today! 2 of them in Chicago, although one was in the parking lot at the Tesla store we stopped at, so that's kind of cheating. I must say, I like the Model X interior much more than the Model S.

7% increase, AND we have to watch in a ballpark called Guaranteed Rate Field? That's just salt in the wounds.

Isn't that was the Minnesota goalie had? Or was it something else?

New Childish Gambino song came out. I hate it, but his new album comes out December 2nd (rumored). Hope that song isn't reflecting of what's to come.

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Nov 10, 2016 -> 07:45 PM) They don't have any mid level prospects or prospects in general for that matter. If you're a rebuilding team, why are you talking to the Angels. If Lawrie brought back C Taylor Ward, their #3 prospect, I would be totally happy with that.

Robertson. Sox may want to trade him before the closer market starts going. I could see Sale being closer to January because he just has to sit back and wait while teams continue to try to outbid each other.

QUOTE (TRU @ Nov 10, 2016 -> 09:35 AM) IIRC, you're in a standard league. That's a bad trade. Miami has shifted to a run heavy philosophy and Landry's production is way down. His strength was catching 7-9 balls for 90-100 yards, but he doesn't score touchdowns and now hes more in the neighborhood of 4-5 catches for 60-70 yards. Meanwhile Murray is the lead back in a high powered offense and gets the bulk of the goaline work. You just traded a mid RB2 for a WR3. Unless you were stacked at RB, this was a bad trade. Granted, Miami has acknowledged they need to get the ball to Landry more but he still is a risky play for standard leagues. I traded him because my other RBs are Elliot, Gordon, Montgomery, Crowell, Bernard, and Dujuan Harris. My best WR is Doug Baldwin. Traded from a strength to help my weakness.

Some guy at work convinced me for about 5 minutes today at work that the Sox traded Frazier straight up for Soler, and I wasn't sure how to feel about it. Obviously the Cubs don't need Frazier, but I couldn't figure out if that would be a good trade for us or not, regardless of the Cubs need for him or not.

Didn't see this thread, I'll repost.... I'm voting Kanye in 2020. How can anyone say he's less qualified than SLOTUS Trump (Supreme Leader Of The United States)?

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Nov 9, 2016 -> 03:22 PM) How about making voting easier? Default to postage paid mail-in ballots. Election day on a Saturday. Same day registration process. This is what kept me from voting. I assumed all states allowed you to register on the day-of. Although I don't think my vote for Kasich would have moved the needle enough.

Picked up Rams D and DuJuan Harris on waivers. I think I am going to play both.

QUOTE (fathom @ Nov 9, 2016 -> 08:18 PM) Just saw the clip, and Pat Boyle said "maybe they could trade Soler, Almora and another piece for Sale". WOW That's actually worse than them saying they wouldn't trade Schwarber for Sale straight up....Gimmie a f***ing break.

QUOTE (credezcrew24 @ Nov 9, 2016 -> 01:21 PM) I didn't watch a whole lot of games after Tim was called up, but I remember watching 2 where he completely missed tagging second on a routine double play. Based on that I think his footwork around second needs a lot of work and that kind of thing probably doesn't factor into DRS. You are correct, he did have what felt like 4 or 5 plays I can remember where you had to watch a reply to find out if he actually stayed on 2B or not. He did have choppy footwork there, but that's just reps.

Alright guys, I got to go blow my f***ing brains out now take a shower.

Hate won tonight. Lucky for me that I am not a woman, black, Hispanic, gay, mentally disabled, Muslim, or poor. Those are the people who will be affected the most from America's intolerance.

QUOTE (JenksIsMyHero @ Nov 8, 2016 -> 08:57 PM) Or people are tired of the same old s***. The exit polling shows that. People don't necessarily like him, but they do want something different. It's pretty striking the difference between rural america and urban america that this election is highlighting. When I get tired of eating the same foods for a lot of my meals, my reaction is never "f*** it, let's see if I like the taste of rat poison". Never underestimate racist white Americans.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Nov 8, 2016 -> 04:34 PM) I'm scared and yet excited at the same time. Yep, this exactly. So excited to finally have a direction and learn all of our new top prospects, but also very scared that we won't get what most would say is fair value out of our assets. Not every trade can be a Shelby Miller trade.

So over the course of the full season, he's probably around 10 DRS then.
