That's one hell of a lineup. A little bit of something for just about everyone.

Heyward's power is nowhere to be found. You can't have your RFer ISO under .100.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 12:22 PM) It doesn't really matter. A 20 something year old man shouldn't act like that. There is nothing management should need to do to keep someone from acting like this. It is on him and him alone. He can be mad about it but no one should ever act like this. I don't agree with what Sale did, but this and the Drake LaRoche thing earlier this season shows how the clubhouse goes wild too often. Players like Eaton and Sale go unchecked for the most part. You can't have that. I don't care if they're deemed "leaders" and get to be more vocal. It's clear that Robin's been too nice and players just get to do whatever the hell they want. It shouldn't take the VP and General Manager to handle s*** like this.

QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jul 25, 2016 -> 10:52 PM) I don't think Robin should be the manager, however you shouldn't throw your manager under the bus like that When you're a lame duck like Robin, you allow players to do it. Really shows how Robin isn't in control of the clubhouse whatsoever.

QUOTE (SCCWS @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 06:11 PM) Huh??? You want to trade a top 5 pitcher in baseball for a package centered around a AA 2nd baseman who some project to be a DH in the majors. Time for your parents to take your computer away. lol mature. Moncada's one of the best prospects in their system. Plus hit tool, plus speed. He's also 21, so just because his defense is poor now doesn't mean it can't develop. Just because the deal is centered around him doesn't mean that's all you get.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 06:09 PM) Mookie Betts scratched tonight due to knee soreness... Betts would be one hell of an add.

QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 03:02 PM) Offensively yes. Defensively he's below average. The stats this year say it's actually the other way around.

I'd totally be willing to trade him to Boston for a package centered around Moncada.

Sale will never be a consistently great pitcher unless he learns how to control his emotions. It was pretty clear this year that once you got Sale out of his comfort zone, he'd get angry, overthrow, and get himself into trouble. His personality off the field reflects that too I guess.

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Jul 22, 2016 -> 02:22 AM) I just assumed since the Eevee I waited 3 weeks to hatch was a 73 CP, and the Oddish was a 203 or something. Of that list of 10 KM, nearly all of them are cool/rare. Why the hell would they lump an Eevee in to that? I actually caught a higher level Eevee on my way back in the house, and an Oddish (albeit lower level) when I got inside. What an enormous waste of time. I was really excited that eggs would be valuable. It goes by the Pokemon's number. Eevee is actually towards the end.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 20, 2016 -> 10:06 PM) Anyone despise this episode of Mr. Robot also? Show seems nothing like the first season. No I thought it was fine. It seems like things are a little slower this season, not skipping around as much as last season. But Rami Malek's performance in this episode was amazing. And I feel like the show is allowed to slow down a bit considering they're airing 12 episodes this season.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 20, 2016 -> 09:06 PM) Kershaw's back is no better, shut down indefinitely, may not return this year. And iamshack for president. Damn it.

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Jul 21, 2016 -> 02:51 AM) FINALLY hatched my 10 km egg.... got an Oddish. Hatched my 5 km egg..... got an Eevee. f*** this game. You got it the wrong way. 10 KM hatched you Eevee. 5 km got you Oddish. There's a chart that tells you what eggs can hatch what Pokemon. Link

QUOTE (CrimsonWeltall @ Jul 19, 2016 -> 02:20 PM) Don't you only get 100 XP for beating 1 pokemon at a gym? That's the same as catching a Pidgey You get 350 for beating a level 3 I think.

QUOTE (South Sider @ Jul 19, 2016 -> 02:56 PM) I did a session where I evolved all the Pidgeys, Weetles and Rats and some others in a 30 minute Lucky Egg and that rushed me from late 18-20. Yesterday I think I took it a step further and hatched 8 5k eggs and a 10k egg right after I started a Lucky Egg and evolved some. Then I kept evolving those Pokemon. I got about 80k experience from the trick. I keep meaning to incorporate hatching my eggs into my Lucky Egg time, but I can never do it right lol.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jul 19, 2016 -> 02:47 PM) Anyone do the pidgey exploit? im about to try it out tonite I had 260 Pidgey candies, evolved 25 of them for 25,000 XP using a lucky egg last night. Evolved some other ones that resulted in new Pokemon as well. Overall, it got me close to 50,000 XP. Unfortunately, that didn't even move me up one level since the gap between level 21 and 22 is 75,000 XP. I had a buddy of mine who went from 10 to 15 last night using the lucky egg + Pidgeys. It's an effective way to level up fast.

So because of Pokemon Go, I've been walking around 5-6 miles per day, visiting parks that I didn't know existed before the game's release. I wonder how long it'll be before we see stories of people losing 20-30 pounds because of this game.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 18, 2016 -> 06:25 AM) Lots of rumors flying about a possible Beltran for Hochevar trade. Hochevar would partially replace whoever the Yanks trade (Miller/Chapman) in a set up role...with KC, Beltran would play RF primarily. Royals would then have huge weakness in set up with Soria struggling and Hochevar gone. But they desperately need more pop offensively. Their bullpen is average right now. Trading away Hochevar will make their bullpen a weak point. With their starting pitching the way it is, that's an awful move to make.

Yes please. We need someone like him until Jackson comes back.

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Jul 13, 2016 -> 12:55 PM) Yeah, I really just play for the thrill of finding something rare. The gyms are hard to take down, and they all seem to be guarded by Vaporeons. Also, I think I'm the only person in NW Indiana on team Yellow. Every gym is red or blue, so I can't even "train" or whatever. Never seen a yellow gym. It's actually easier that way. You can easily gain XP for fighting the gyms, assuming you have something strong enough to beat at least one Pokemon at the gym.

Stanton's playing MLB The Show IRL right now.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jul 11, 2016 -> 07:33 PM) Trumbo put a few off the scoreboard And then the scoreboard showed it hitting the scoreboard over and over again. Gotta love scoreboard inception.

Mr. Robot Season 2 Ep 1 has leaked.

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Jul 10, 2016 -> 02:30 AM) I still largely have no idea what I am doing. Happened to stumble across a gym today. My only option was to fight some guy who was the leader? He ended up pretty much destroying all my Pokemon, as I had no idea what to do and I have never leveled up a single guy yet. It finally got down to my last guy, we each had a sliver of health left, the timer ran out, but nothing happened. I continued to attack for about a minute straight, but nothing landed and he stopped attacking me. Had no idea what to do, so I tried fleeing, but it didn't change anything. Ended up just force closing the game. No idea what the result of that was. Are my guys dead? This game badly needs a tutorial. Yeah it does. As for what happened, your Pokemon are fainted and you need to use a revive item on them.

QUOTE (South Sider @ Jul 10, 2016 -> 09:32 AM) Theres a pretty major bug with gyms right now called 1HP bug. It needs to be fixed. Happened to me twice. Such BS.
