It really sounds like Logan Morrison.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Dec 10, 2012 -> 09:57 PM) Does Jay Bruce have questionable makeup? I don't think so. I didn't read Bucket's post before making mine.

Jay Bruce.

Royals Review should be a treat tonight.

Wow. What an awful trade by KC. HUGE overpay.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Dec 9, 2012 -> 03:45 PM) De Aza + Floyd, not just De Aza. And under no circumstances do I want Josh Hamilton on this team, not even if Hahn magically finds $25M in extra money to spend next season. I'm very curious as to what names have been floated regarding any trade talks involving Vicideo and/or De Aza.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 7, 2012 -> 11:49 AM) The top base-stealer. Not many are sure if he will be able to hit enough to make it. He's also moved positions from SS/2B to CF. Not sure they need De Aza in the near future.

QUOTE (GoGoSox2k2 @ Dec 7, 2012 -> 11:22 AM) Gonzo mentions the Reds are interested in De Aza, maybe we can get them to overpay for him since they were after both Span & Revere and missed out. Todd Frazier for 3rd base would be an interesting option?.. I would still love Mesoraco from the Reds.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Dec 6, 2012 -> 11:26 AM) Yeah, when I said available, I was thinking available via trade. I can't see it being Bourn either. One would think he means a LH with power...I have no idea... Headley or Logan Morrison? Not sure where LoMo would fit or if he's even an upgrade at this point.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Dec 6, 2012 -> 11:15 AM) So who are the best LH hitters that could possibly be available other than Hamilton? I was assuming he was talking trade. I can't think of anyone but Bourn. And I'm not sure I'd call him a "big" hitter.

QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Dec 5, 2012 -> 11:00 PM) Not sure why everyone is so certain Keppinger is the full time 3B. Perhaps he was signed to be a supersub while KennyHahn chases an impact player nobody thinks we can acquire... If it's a young, cost controlled impact player, sign me up.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 5, 2012 -> 08:37 AM) You must hate Chris Sale. I'd wager Arenado could be acquired for pieces other than Sale. Though he isn't major league ready.

QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Dec 4, 2012 -> 09:54 PM) The Sox are aiming higher than Jack Hanahan right now for 3B. Lots of plates spinning tonight. I still have Arenado and Olt on my wishlist.

QUOTE (Sockin @ Dec 4, 2012 -> 06:32 PM) Yankees closing in on deal with AJ. http://www.fannation.com/truth_and_rumors/...ef=twitter_feed Nice. Time to move on.

QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Nov 25, 2012 -> 02:47 AM) Also, the Rockies have soured a bit on top 3B prospect Arenado for production drop and for some attitude issues. (Nothing major, he's known to be pretty aloof in the field and that's not a fit for them.) When he's motivated, dude can hit. He projects to be a decent MLB 3B and is much better than anything the Sox have internally for that position, IMO. He could likely be had for Floyd. Arenado for Floyd would be a steal. I suspect it would take a bit more on the Sox end. I'd still be on board though.

I know I haven't been around much lately, but this pleases me.

I sure hope a suspension is pending. I can un-mute my TV for a few games.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Aug 24, 2012 -> 08:14 AM) Also, some of these analyst types (like Goldstein) that are not actually scouts, often tend to ignore or sideline defense considerations, talking purely about offense. Who knows what he meant in that tweet. Goldstein doesn't ignore defense.

Kevin Goldstein ‏@Kevin_Goldstein Easy plus. Also his only tool I'd say that about. RT @ProfessorFog: @Kevin_Goldstein What would you grade Carlos Sanchez's hit tool? Reply Retweet Favorite

Mike Trout is so f***ing good. Love watching him play. Beautiful catch.

Good chance he's going to miss a significant chunk of 2013 as well.

I've always been a Snider fan. Hope he figures it out with the Pirates.

Vizcaino could be a steal. Love it for the Cubs. I look forward to seeing him pitch.

I'm not sure I'd want Pence anyway.
