QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Nov 21, 2013 -> 04:13 PM) Dave Cameron made a great point in his Vargas write up...who would you rather have, Jason Vargas at 4 years, $32 million or Tim Lincecum at 2 years, $35 million? Lincecum.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Nov 19, 2013 -> 10:44 PM) Josh Johnson to the Padres David Murphey to the Indians For only $8 million. He did suck last year (his FIP and xFIP weren't awful though), but for a guy with his resume and given the current market, $8 million on a one year deal with an option is a steal. I wish the Sox could have signed him and traded away Hector for a bat.

QUOTE (Jake @ Nov 16, 2013 -> 08:39 PM) Yeah I don't use Hangouts to chat with people since most of my (small amount of) IM occurs via Facebook. I have to think that the integration of SMS/IM will come at some point. I've heard of some people having issues with MMS/Group messaging, but luckily that hasn't been the case for me; of course, I had to wait a bit longer than a lot of users to get the update through the Play Store. I had sideloaded the Nexus 5 build and it wasn't working well at all on my One. The Play Store version is working perfectly. Patience is clearly the key I got a few of my friends to use Hangouts, so having all messages threaded would make it look a hell of a lot cleaner.

QUOTE (Jake @ Nov 16, 2013 -> 08:41 PM) I'm going to go back to my original assertion that this Indiana team isn't that f***ing good. You have Paul George, who is great, plus no guards. Hibbert is breaking out and is a great piece. I feel like West never ends up playing up to his ability on that team, for whatever reason. Maybe I just overrate West. No depth IMO on Indiana Indiana has a lot of depth. Their bench is pretty damn good. I feel like this Indy team will be fairly erratic come playoff time. They'll have their great games and they'll have games where Lance Stephenson clanks everything (like tonight).

QUOTE (Jake @ Nov 16, 2013 -> 08:12 PM) Really enjoying Hangouts w/ SMS. Nice, snappy interface. Will be even better in 4.4, when it (and other third party texting clients) are even more integrated into the OS Sliding Messaging Pro is just like it. I would use it, except MMS doesn't work on it for some reason. I wish Hangouts would put your messages with the same contacts in one thread as opposed to separate ones though.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Nov 16, 2013 -> 08:26 PM) Still odd to see Derrick miss layups, even when they're difficult ones. When he's right he finishes everything at the rim. He's doing the right things this game. I think he knows he's not able to finish as well ATM, so he's just penetrating to get the defense to collapse and then creating shots for others.

No punts, no kickoffs, no problem
QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Nov 15, 2013 -> 02:12 PM) Well this is a college team, not HS, but yes, I had thought about that too. However, a punt can always result in a touchdown for the receiving team, so it's not just field position. Pretty sure this is a high school team...

Jaso an offseason target
QUOTE (scs787 @ Nov 15, 2013 -> 07:35 PM) FWIW, and I really don't know how to analyze this ...The last trade Jaso was in... A's Got- Jaso(M's) M's Got- Mike Morse(Wash) Was Got- AJ Cole(A's, #57 prospect overall) and 2 lower level minor leaguers from the A's. So there were some good players going around in that trade. That's what I'm saying...the A's aren't going to give up Jaso for nothing. The A's traded the #57 prospect for Jaso and he performed fairly well for them last year. Why would Oakland trade him for a low level pitching prospect? Billy Beane's not an idiot.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Nov 15, 2013 -> 06:42 PM) You guys need more Twolves! Yeah, they would have been a good pick too. Honestly, I haven't used LP that much. Maybe 4-5 times since I've gotten it. The Bulls are on national TV a lot.

Jaso an offseason target
QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Nov 15, 2013 -> 06:11 PM) Hell no. If they can get Jaso for some lower level pitching prospects, it would be a great pickup. But to trade someone like Santiago for him would be crazy. I think some of you might be overvaluing Santiago. I'm still not sure he can end up as a consistent starting pitcher.

QUOTE (Jake @ Nov 15, 2013 -> 06:29 PM) I bought NBA LP today. Went with Chicago, Indy, Miami, Golden State, Clippers. I get the Grizzlies locally. I think Houston would have been my next team, followed by OKC Houston's definitely a fun team to watch. I picked Chicago, Golden State, LAC, OKC, and the Rockets.
