QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ May 22, 2013 -> 04:00 PM) The radio station I am interning at is switching over to using all Macs and hooking everything up w/ Firewire. Oh my god, kill me. People still use Firewire?

Frank Vogel is crazy stupid for not playing Hibbert on defense.

Come on Astros bullpen, stop sucking. We can be in 3rd with a Royals loss.

QUOTE (iamshack @ May 21, 2013 -> 10:06 PM) I really would not like having to pick Noel if I had the #1 pick...he has a chance to be a nice defensive player, but probably not going to do much offensively...that's sort of setting your sights low with the numero uno... Cavs also have Varejao, who before his injury was one of the best centers in the NBA last year.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 21, 2013 -> 08:36 PM) Any injury to Sale right now is scary. Hope it's nothing that lingers. Maybe they shouldn't have let him dominate the Angels as much as he did.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 21, 2013 -> 07:32 PM) Except for the guy going on 3 days rest, that would sound awfully convenient with another pitcher coming up from the minors. Santiago also only threw like 80 pitches last time out. Can't hurt.

The problem with Santiago is that he can be really bad (like his last outing against the Angels). Axelrod can at least give you 5-6 innings and is a bit more consistent. That being said, I'd still much rather go with Hector.

QUOTE (Jake @ May 21, 2013 -> 09:30 PM) GIF creator says it is pronounced jif Good to know that I've been saying it correctly this whole time.

Feels great to win a series against a good Red Sox team. If only Sale didn't get scratched for tomorrow's game.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 20, 2013 -> 10:13 PM) Patrick Corbin FTW He, Yu Darvish, and Clayton Kershaw are awesome...for my fantasy team.

QUOTE (Knuckles @ May 20, 2013 -> 10:41 PM) We play the next 16 out of 19 at home? Including Cubs, and The Fish? Time to make a run! Yup. It's now or never.

I love that Viciedo is walking more.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ May 20, 2013 -> 10:58 AM) I know nothing about the credibility of this site, but this just popped up in my Facebook feed: https://www.facebook.com/#!/ChicagoWhit...location=stream Supposedly the Sox are going to get Goldschmidt from ARI and Callaspo from LAA in exchange for Konerko (ARI), Crain and Santiago (LAA). It isn't mentioned, but presumably something substantial would also have to go from LAA to ARI. I find this highly unlikely because it seems too good to be true on the Sox end and why on earth would Arizona give up Goldschmidt? I almost didn't even bother to post it but these wild stories do end up true about 0.5% of the time. lolwut?

The Marlins are definitely a good team to go against.

OVA! So this is what a winning streak feels like huh?

QUOTE (Jake @ May 17, 2013 -> 11:37 PM) No way would I part with Butler in said deal. I wouldn't either. I think he's the 2-guard we were looking for the past 3 years. Maybe he's not the best scoring 2-guard, but he's such a good defender and he can get his points on the offensive end when needed.

CSIAA, that is all.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 17, 2013 -> 02:38 PM) I don't know where I said anything about them being inefficient together. That's just a lot of shots with Rose and him combined at a low percentage. That's basically saying they're inefficient at shooting, which is also inferring that they're offensively inefficient.

QUOTE (CrimsonWeltall @ May 17, 2013 -> 02:38 PM) His career TS is lower than Carlos Boozer's: .563 to .557 His career EFG% is much lower than Boozer's: .530 to .482 Carlos Boozer's put up a .530 TS% in a Bulls uniform. So using his career numbers doesn't really mean much of anything. Plus, Boozer and Love aren't the same kind of players. Love shoots a decent amount of 3s. Boozer's maybe attempted 10 in his entire career. Plus you have to take into account how much better Love is at rebounding, especially on the offensive end.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 17, 2013 -> 02:13 PM) (Just so I make sure I'm following stats, that doesn't take into account how much time he missed as a negative the way WAR does in baseball, right?) Nope.

QUOTE (Felix @ May 17, 2013 -> 01:37 PM) I haven't read any of the above posts, but... The Wolves are not shopping Kevin Love. Move on. EDIT: Just read a couple of them.. lol at the "efficiency concerns" with Love. Seriously, educate yourself on players before talking about them. Thanks! IDK what Steve was talking about with Love and Rose being inefficient together. Love put up near .600 TS before the injury last year. Although I will say I am a bit worried about how bad he was last year, injury or no injury.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ May 17, 2013 -> 12:11 PM) Konerko and Peavy for Chris Davis. I'm OK with this. Are you sure you want Chris Davis and Adam Dunn on the same team?

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 17, 2013 -> 12:11 PM) Then you have to decide if Kevin Love is the guy who takes you to the next level. I don't know that a low percentage big chucking threes fixes the needs of this roster. When healthy he does get to the line a lot, though, which is very nice. Rose and Love both shooting 41-44% on a f***ton of shots could be painful. Not to mention Love played horribly last year. If he was injured the whole time, he probably shouldn't have played.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ May 17, 2013 -> 10:44 AM) Four winner threads on the first page. What is this I don't even It would be 5 if it wasn't for that Aaron Hicks guy...
