QUOTE (iamshack @ Oct 18, 2013 -> 11:58 AM) So looking at honeymoon destinations. Going to try and keep this relatively affordable because we're way over budget on the wedding at this point. Probably going to leave the 28th or 29th of April, and go for 6 nights. Heard http://www.capellahotels.com/ixtapa/default-en.html is pretty awesome. Anyone ever been? Was at the one in Cabo, really nice. If you are looking to go that route, this place is even better http://www.nizuc.com/ and I like Riveria Maya better than Cabo. The Garden Pool Villas are fantastic for a honeymoon. Fun sox related stuff we did at our wedding: Pictures on the field and in the dugout, had a jersey for everyone to sign instead of a guest book (was a great idea except for my idiot friend who wrote "go cubs" on it; and had Ozzie give a message to congratulate us. That was the coolest part. He said a message in Spanish telling my wife that she was making a huge mistake and to run away. Then he gave us a nice blessing in English. We played it up really well as like an awards show and my buddies presented the "Best greeting from a person who couldn't attend the wedding" category. And we had a bunch of people on there who couldn't come. It was pretty funny.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jul 27, 2012 -> 08:48 PM) I'd think about letting him skip a start. I mentioned back in June that this has been the plan all along. Expect some ten day off stretches

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jul 27, 2012 -> 03:05 PM) If I'm a big market GM looking to upgrade for a playoff run, I'd rather have Dempster than Greinke (assuming Demp would be willing of course). It is about this year, Dempster is better this year, and he's not a head case. This all said... if others are leaping off the Greinke ship, maybe KW can slip in and get it done for less than some of the reported packages. The requested package is too high in my opinion

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 27, 2012 -> 02:27 PM) I was waiting for you to make an appearance, oh wise one... I'm thinking we pick up DeWayne Wise to be our 5th starter... That guy sure has been involved in some memorable plays for a career backup

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 27, 2012 -> 01:44 PM) It will be interesting to see which organization blinks first. If the sellers don't drop their prices, will the buyers jump their offers? I don't think KW will blink so the Brewers have to drop their price. It is pretty entertaining to read all the speculation on here. Looking like a back end rotation starter at best.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 27, 2012 -> 11:37 AM) With the price as high as it is for Greinke, I'd bet money Kenny is on the phone to other teams. correct grienke talks are dead

Aj deserves it way more than Dunn

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 11:06 AM) Ya I just bought season 1 and 2 of breaking bad and just flew through it. f***in great so far. Season 3 and 4 are even better. So much tension in those seasons And its my wife's favorite show as well.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 24, 2012 -> 04:28 PM) I think he meant the walkoff hit...Lillibridge couldn't have done that. Exactly!!

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 24, 2012 -> 04:24 PM) With Lilli going, that means Hudson is going to stick around. Blah. Lilli couldn't have done that

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 24, 2012 -> 04:15 PM) If it is Lilli, how do you not tell your manager not to play him and risk getting him hurt? That is awful. I can't answer that. Maybe trying to win a ball game here and the risk is minimal

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 24, 2012 -> 04:12 PM) This would seem to mean that at least one player is on the major league roster. Correct

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 24, 2012 -> 03:59 PM) Lilli just PR, it can't be him. Sure it can

QUOTE (daa84 @ Jun 24, 2012 -> 03:56 PM) Bowden says utility and a pitcher. I'm guessing Lilly and stewart Good guess

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jun 13, 2012 -> 09:22 AM) This is kind of offtopic but I just found a 2 min nude scene of Autumn Reeser, yowza. where?

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 10, 2012 -> 09:52 AM) If you don't think I looked that s*** up about two episodes into her appearance on Mad Men, you're bats*** crazy! I thought she had an even better nude scene in Lost and Delirious where she goes girl on girl with Piper Perabo

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 10, 2012 -> 11:25 AM) Any trade value BL had we've now destroyed by 1) putting him in a position where it is very difficult to succeed; and 2) rewarding a somewhat "breakout" season of his by playing him even less. This isn't to say Brent doesn't shoulder some of the blame himself...he's feeling sorry for himself and trying to hit home runs most of his PAs to convince the coaching staff he should be getting more starts or to become so valuable that we have to move him elsewhere (which we probably should have done last offseason). His swing is quite long again. I would trade him in a second. I think last year will be his career year easily.

QUOTE (oldsox @ Jun 6, 2012 -> 09:18 AM) How bad was Tank at third in '09? Never saw him. I would think they could have worked with him at third... The Sox viewed him as really really bad. Worse than Teahan bad. They decided when he was in AA that he could not play 3b in the bigs.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Jun 6, 2012 -> 03:21 AM) THIS POST NEEDS NOT TO BE OVERLOOKED! doc, what can you tell us about innings cap on Sale this year? I can tell you that there will be one The exact number is still TBD

What do you think of an innings cap on Sale this year?

Law had him at 25 so he probably won't like pick

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jun 4, 2012 -> 07:29 PM) Props to our inside guys docsox and bucket of suck as well. Can't believe we have the balls to draft a H.S. Sorry I had to wait until it was close to pick to say

QUOTE (hi8is @ Jun 4, 2012 -> 07:19 PM) Sweet one of Gio or stroman will be there Hawkins is the man

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 1, 2012 -> 10:59 AM) You're lucky the Mariners can't score runs. Obviously that was a factor in my taking Mark. I also bet him about 6 years ago that Verlander would win more than Dontrelle. I feel pretty good about that one!

QUOTE (knightni @ May 31, 2012 -> 12:25 PM) Hey, Hitler and W won that award. Why not Ozzie? Wow I thought you were kidding but I looked it up and Hitler did win in 1938. I was just in New Orleans at the WWII Museum and seeing all the video clips of Hitler bullying everyone around and the US coming in and crushing him was pretty sweet.
