So what prospects do we expect to get back for Adam Dunn? Let's just go ahead and ask for Joey Gallo. He only has 18 HR this season so far.....lol.

Just watched an hour long livestream of Watchdogs by IGN. And it was awesome. They didn't want to do any story stuff, for fear of spoilers, but they did some side missions and some random events and it was pretty awesome. It's really fun to just spy on people and read about their life. They hacked in to some guy's laptop, and it showed he had like restraining orders on him or something and the guy was in his apartment watching the girl across the street with his binoculars and saying stuff like "Oh yeah girl, you don't need to be wearing that, just get comfortable" and it was pretty funny. Then right as the stream ended, the person controlling it was running around and just beating up people. Well this girl on the corner pulled out her phone to call the cops. So he runs over there to her, says "Give me that" and grabs her phone and spikes it in to the ground. LOL. It was f***ing hilarious.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ May 22, 2014 -> 11:03 AM) I've seen several mocks calling for Gillaspie to go in the 20's or 30's I think you quoted the wrong person.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ May 22, 2014 -> 09:39 AM) I'd much rather take Kolek than a guy like Aaron Nola though. Swing for the fences rather than some safe college arm. I'd be okay with Freeland over Kolek at #3 but if Rodon and Aiken go 1-2, it could literally be anyone for the Sox. I'm saying it because the two teams who could take him before us are Houston and Miami, which would leave the Sox with the choices of either Rodon or Aiken, which would be awesome.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 21, 2014 -> 09:12 PM) Astros taking Kolek is best for Sox. Anyone before us taking Kolek is best.

MLB.com has a highlight from the Cubs/Yankees game today that is titled "Jeter turns clutch double play". It was a damn ground ball up the middle that took him to the bag. They just love to throw love and the word "clutch" at Jeter constantly. I can not WAIT until he retires.

Do you have to pay extra to have those jerseys say "AFFLICTION" across the chest?

QUOTE (Señor Ding-Dong @ May 21, 2014 -> 02:17 AM) I've all but given up on him. He's a fringe prospect at best at this point. Alright, let's pump the brakes here. The kid is 21 and only has 100 pro games under his belt. He's got a couple more years until we can forget about him.

2/4 tonight with the game winning RBI in the bottom of the 6th. We won 11-10.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 20, 2014 -> 09:40 PM) Jared Mitchell is a 2 outcome hitter. And they are both strikeouts.

QUOTE (hi8is @ May 20, 2014 -> 08:25 PM) Why would he say something like that 3 weeks away from one of the most important drafts this franchise has ever had. Because he obviously has no idea there is a very very large chance that he will have to be talking up said high draft choice HS pitcher in about 2 1/2 weeks. I wonder if he will lie to everyone and be excited about the pick, or disapprove of the choice or just say "Rick Hahn knows what he is doing"

Wendelken now owns a 42:8 K:BB ratio. That's very nice.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 20, 2014 -> 08:13 PM) Hawk just said a high school pitcher is the worst draft choice in baseball.....UGH Aaron Nola, come on down I actually think he said a HS pitcher high draft choice is the worst, just not drafting a HS pitcher in general.

Micah is 2/3, 2B, RBI Phegley is 1/3, HR, 2 RBI Surkamp with a nice start. 6 IP, 7 H, 3 ER, 0 BB, 8 K Wendelken with a real nice start so far. 7 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 4 K.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 20, 2014 -> 12:16 PM) With Alexei, Viciedo, Abreu, and Nieto here, I don't see why the Sox wouldn't be major players for him. With Alexei, Viciedo, Abreu, and Nieto here, I don't see why Carbonell wouldn't be interested in us.

Don't forget that Abreu has an opt-out for arbitration clause in his contract after 3 seasons. It's very likely if he continues to mash that he will become an expensive players for those final 3 seasons with us. That's always something to remember when we root for him to win 3 straight MVPs.

37 times an NHL team has come back from down 0-2 to win. I couldn't find a number on how many of those teams did it as the home team (lost first 2 home games), but the most recent I found was 2009 when the Capitals started down 0-2 at home to the Rangers, and came back to win the series.

Marcus is in SWING mode.

Recchia still pitching.... 5 IP, 5 H, 1 ER, 1 BB, 2 K

http://www.milb.com/scoreboard/index.jsp?s...mp;ymd=20140519 Recchia making his debut in AA. 4 IP, 4 H, 1 ER, 1 BB, 1 K Jake Sanchez got torched against Hickory tonight. 5 IP, 9 H, 8 ER, 1 BB, 6 K, 3 HR Rondon - 2/3, 11th SB, 13th error (throw) Trey - 1/3, 8th error (throw)

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 19, 2014 -> 07:42 PM) But he didn't get him and that allowed the trail runner to get to 2nd, wiping out the double play situation...with Carroll being a sinker-ball/double play artist, if he has one good trait, that's it. Then your blame should be put on Semien for either not picking that ball, or not coming up the baseline to catch it.

3 errors and none of them are ruled errors. LOL. Nice hometown scoring. When can baseball finally change this? Have some interns in a central location making these rulings.

So essentially we have 3 errors this inning, yes?
