QUOTE (steveno89 @ Jul 25, 2017 -> 12:57 PM) Lewis has shown power, both in college and limited pro sample size. I'm still high on Rutherford, but eventually the power will have to start showing up if he is going to stick as a corner outfielder. I'm not obsessed with Lewis, but feel is is a better overall prospect than Collins at this stage. I get organizationally we needed a catcher, but I think we fell in love with Collins' 2016 junior season. Lewis raked in college, albeit at a smaller program, for two full seasons. What is done is done, but I'm still allowed to respectfully disagree with the organization's draft decision from 2016. Didn't mean you specifically, but seemingly a large swath of posters.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 25, 2017 -> 03:04 PM) Excellent tweet that sums up my feelings: And if the Democratic Party dies, then the left dies. Progressives would never be able to cobble together a coherent party.

What in the hell is the Kyle Lewis obsession? What has he shown that someone like Rutherford hasn't?

We have very different definitions of big

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jul 25, 2017 -> 08:18 AM) How very brave of The Maverick to risk his own life to doom millions of Americans to financial hardship and possibly death. It's one way to tarnish your legacy.

One more to keep the Crosstown Cup!

I have a feeling Hansen and Collins just missed the Top 100

Apparently, Obamacare has reeked havoc for 17 years. You can't make this s*** up

QUOTE (steveno89 @ Jul 24, 2017 -> 02:16 PM) I'm far too young to have seen him play, but a 75 grade hit tool is beyond ELITE. That high of a grade I would reserve for players with numbers like Ichiro, Ted Williams, Pujols, Miguel Cabrera, etc. guys who flat out raked. Fox's grades would likely end up looking like: Hit : 60 Power: 20 Run: 50 Field: 60 Arm: 50 FV: 60 player Considering how little he struck out, I have no issue giving him that stupidly high of a grade.

It also probably stands to reason that Nellie would have a few more Ks and a bit more pop with the evolution of the game. But still, he would have a 70+ hit tool, if not an 80. Would you take this with your pick: Hit: 75 Power: 30 Run: 50 Field: 60 Arm: 50 (I have no idea how to rank Nellie's arm, not having seen him play) I'm basically imagining Yolmer Sanchez (thanks DA for the comp) but with elite hitting.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 24, 2017 -> 12:21 PM) If he uncovers something or is getting really close, Mueller is going to be fired anyway. Obviously I could be wrong, but I think there is no way he survives long enough to see Trump's taxes. My guess is he's already seen them, hence Trump going into DEFCON Orange.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 24, 2017 -> 11:43 AM) Trump now referring to Sessions as "beleaguered". Can't understand why he isn't going after Hillary. He does realize he was the one who hired him, I would think. What happened to all the dogs Trump promised to put on crooked Hillary after he won the election? For a guy so concerned with "fake news", it's actually been his specialty for over 30 years. Why not fire Sessions? I don't think democrats would make a stink this time. Keep him for now. A new AG can fire Mueller, Sessions can't.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 24, 2017 -> 12:16 AM) After the 2nd inning today, Cubs fans on Twitter wanted him gone. We'll trade them Carson Fulmer

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 23, 2017 -> 11:29 PM) I disagree. You can be for government assistance, personal freedoms and still want conservative financial philosophies. Not far right ideas. But more towards the center. I don't understand why a conservative has to be against social liberties. This article is more crass than I'd like, but https://qz.com/936052/you-cant-be-socially-...y-conservative/

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 23, 2017 -> 07:28 PM) I don't think that's a mixture of both. They're supposed to be socially liberal and fiscally conservative.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jul 23, 2017 -> 06:27 PM) we will get right on that I prefer we send him to some faith healer in Colorado.

At this point I'm just hoping they end up with Beer as either an underslot or he develops his defense to stick in the OF. Considering the best player in franchise history was a DH, if his bat plays, his bat plays.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 23, 2017 -> 06:16 PM) Not only that but make it harder for them to get to the postseason. That and keeping the cup. WE MUST KEEP THE BP CROSSTOWN CUP

QUOTE (oldsox @ Jul 23, 2017 -> 06:10 PM) Have you been to one? You gonna compare it to the Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic, or the hospital closest to your home? If your kid is hurt or sick, you gonna send him/her to the DR? Why take chances. If he is hurt, get him over here and fix him, then re-hab him here, and develop him here. I mean, the hospital closest to my hometown botched a surgery and made my best friend's father paralyzed from the neck down and only after 12 years of rehab is he actually able to walk. Can't drive, can't play catch, etc. It was a herniated disc. And no I'm not going to send my future kids to the DR because that's f***ing stupid. I live in NYC. But then again, not every single patient in the US goes to Mayo or Barnes-Jewish. Also, the Sox very likely have their own medical staff tending to their own players. And my god, if our hospitals are 100% fool proof, please explain the Chicago Bulls.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 23, 2017 -> 06:07 PM) Spoiler. She is awful. I really wish a third party would emerge. Any time they do they put up an asshole for president. Run on a mixture of right and left. Call it centrist or something. You'll get votes. Lots of Americans are socially liberal but economically conservative. So, the libertarian party?
