QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 26, 2014 -> 11:23 AM) Sale has the better record, WHIP, more complete games, walks less people, gives up less hits, doesn't throw a s*** ton of wild pitches. Felix has the better ER numbers, strikes out slightly more, and has pitched 7 more starts due to Sale's DL trip. There's certainly an argument to be made for Sale but the numbers are all very close except for starts made. That matters.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Jul 26, 2014 -> 10:03 AM) I don't think there's much of an argument that Sale is better than Felix at the moment. Agreed. Felix has been the best pitcher in the AL this year and if it wasn't for Kershaw, he'd be the best pitcher in baseball.

Alex Rios: the player who nobody actually wanted. :\

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 5, 2014 -> 01:25 AM) Tyler Flowers is so good it's scary. He has hit some of the hardest balls since the 1977 South Side Hitmen. That line drive homer tonight was scary. That blast over the foul pole last homestand that was barely foul would have been a legendary blast. That cannon off the second deck, I think it was in Minnie, was also Babe Ruth-like. Kudos to Flowers for indeed flipping the bird at all of us. This post would have looked completely different a month ago. Try not to get too excited Greg...

We'll need to wait and see. All I know is, since he's started wearing his glasses, his BABIP is way higher than .380 (closer to .400). He's got a .607 BABIP since the ASB. It could be luck or it could be a real improvement.

So there was a rumor that Real Madrid was going after Falcao. It seems like they're just spending money for the hell of it at this point.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 4, 2014 -> 09:57 AM) No specific contract details yet, but the Bengals just gave Andy Dalton a whole lot of money. Another typical QB quandary in the NFL. You aren't sure if he's good enough to win it all, but you are too worried about replacing him to let him go. I wonder if irrational Bengals fans hate Dalton more than irrational Bears fans hate Cutler. But then again, Dalton's done nothing but choke for the Bengals in the playoffs. Cutler at least won a game.

Nice rally in the 8th.

Windhorst just said the base of the basket is closer on that court than it is on NBA courts.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Aug 1, 2014 -> 09:56 PM) Pssh, no. It's a broken leg. Fractures recover in 4-5 months, then the question is what's the rehab time. I'm sure he'll take the year to be safe. Kevin Ware's fracture was worse and he was ready by the next season.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 1, 2014 -> 09:47 PM) Cancel the whole stupid tournament. Get all the paid players off the court for these stupid games. What sucked the most is that this was a scrimmage...

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 1, 2014 -> 09:18 PM) He was unstoppable last preseason where no defense was being played. He has looked even better tonight, where very little defense is being played. It's all about his health. If he holds up, Bulls are in the Finals. Eh, a bit more defense being played. But they're clearly not trying that hard. Rose has his explosiveness back. He didn't look great in the half-court though, but that's expected.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Aug 1, 2014 -> 09:39 PM) Really unfortunate. And such a freak thing. An inch shorter or longer on that landing and he's probable fine. Aren't the back stops for the basket usually farther than that? Nevermind: looks normal.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Aug 1, 2014 -> 09:37 PM) What's the recovery time for that? 5-6 months? The Pacers are kinda screwed.

Wow that is awful. I don't want to see that replay ever again.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Aug 1, 2014 -> 08:08 PM) It's sad that every cut i'm like "oh God, let his knees hold up!" He landed so weird on his dunk. After he dunked it, it looks like his hands were going to clutch his knee.

Holy crap Rose looks good.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jul 31, 2014 -> 04:10 PM) I agree -- MLB should pay for some phantom cameras and postion them throughout the park. I believe they do have those cameras in Comerica. The Tigers Fox Sports broadcast uses them all the time.

Good series. Good road trip.

You'd think they'd shoot video in higher than 60 fps so that not everything looks blurry like it did on that replay.

lol all the fans are leaving.

This one will be hard to overturn.

Conor's just had a horrible day altogether.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 31, 2014 -> 03:55 PM) And it was bad to start with. Considering Jackson was their only good OFer, yeah.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 31, 2014 -> 03:59 PM) with 4 hits he has to be over the .300 mark He's hitting .299. Worst batting average ever. So close, yet so far.
