Quin

QUOTE (SonofaRoache @ Oct 1, 2017 -> 06:14 PM) I don't think Beer gets close to our second pick. I don't either, but his stock is collapsing and the baseball draft can be cruel. Like Matuella and Hansen were preseason favorites to go 1-1 in their drafts.

Assuming the top guys stay in place, the Sox will get one of Singer, Rocker, Turang, Kelenic or Madrigal. Dream is get one of those then hopefully Gray or Beer tumbles to the second.

QUOTE (Tony @ Oct 1, 2017 -> 03:26 PM) With everything that has gone on the last week (or last year for that matter)......why is it "noteworthy"? Because a comedian said it on a satirical show I guess?

Don't tread on me, No taxation without representation, etc. are all more applicable now than they have been since 1776.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Sep 30, 2017 -> 11:53 AM) Quin, Please explain to me how Otani leaving Japan now, instead of in two years, makes "feasible sense"? Isn't Japan infamous for running its pitchers into the ground?

QUOTE (oldsox @ Sep 29, 2017 -> 09:54 PM) Neither was Abreu. ' Lmao, I was actually aboard the Abreu to the Sox train because it made feasible sense.

Otani isn't coming to the Sox.

The best people. The biggliest geniuses.

We all laugh but Tilson is going to be a perennial all-star for the Sox and play 15 straight years of 162 games. But yeah...hoping for him to just kick his voodoo curse.

No one we draft is going to be more highly touted than Moncada, Robert and Jimenez. Hell, people thought it might Rutherford going into his draft.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 28, 2017 -> 09:26 PM) The draft position comment was great. That was what made me think that

Hahn definitely reads SoxTalk

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Sep 28, 2017 -> 08:00 AM) I hope they go 1-3 and lose first round with Q pitching a great game. Q perfect game, blowouts the other three.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 28, 2017 -> 09:56 AM) Trump finally waived the shipping restrictions for Puerto Rico. Now, was that so hard? Well, the shipping industry didn't like it. #MAGA

Jack Parkman. Or Obama and Ben Shapiro, to confuse the s*** out of newcomers.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Sep 27, 2017 -> 02:45 PM) My god his tax plan, wow. Looks like households under 50k are going to be paying quite a bit more. Suddenly glad I got that extra 2k a year...

Lol if Turang or Singer is there at 4 if we pick there

Because, I'll be blunt, most people don't give a s*** about others unless it's convenient for them.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Sep 25, 2017 -> 04:49 PM) Not sure about the others but wasn't Ichiro about the same age as abreu for their MLB "rookie" year? Yup.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 25, 2017 -> 03:06 PM) There aren't a lot of non HOF players that have hit 25 homers and have driven in 100 four consecutives years anyway. Joe Carter is one off my head I'm pretty sure did it. Has any White Sox other than Frank Thomas done it? I'm guessing no. Paulie came close in '04-'07, but fell 10 rbis short in 07

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Sep 25, 2017 -> 03:05 PM) Three of those guys are leadoff types and wouldn't be getting the RBI opportunities. That said, Jose was in a good position to make history and made it. I don't want to downplay it too much. Cespedes, Gurriel

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Sep 25, 2017 -> 02:55 PM) I mean Dick asked for an explanation and he gave it. Most foreign guys are not coming over in their prime. Ichiro, Gurriel, Cespedes, Iguchi, Fukudome, etc. I'd say a lot of Japanese and Cuban players do. And none of them did what Jose did.
