Quin

Q starts the fifth, Goldy out.

QUOTE (KagakuOtoko @ Mar 10, 2017 -> 07:10 PM) 65 pitches and he's done for the tournament, as it's required to get 4 days rest. Colombia has a very small shot to make it out of group play. I'll need Q to throw 3 pitch innings and get his no hitter.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Mar 10, 2017 -> 06:04 PM) This administration cannot stop blaming other people for its shortcomings. Now we are blaming some make believe "deep state". Who is stupid enough to believe that s***? Trump voters.

QUOTE (heirdog @ Mar 10, 2017 -> 06:08 PM) Round 2 to Quintana as well vs kinsler/jones. Through 4 only 41 pitches so maybe another inning? Anyone know if he's on a pitch/inning limit? Q is basically Colombia's only hope of winning this game.

Archer out.

QUOTE (hi8is @ Mar 10, 2017 -> 06:06 PM) Beautiful pitch to start Adam Jones off. 1-2-3

Knock on wood, but Q acing his way through the WBC would be stellar to watch and for his trade value.

God damn I love Q.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Mar 10, 2017 -> 05:02 PM) Ah, see, that was the history nerd in me talking. Also, cause it didn't stop the damn Mongolians.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 9, 2017 -> 01:12 PM) When South Park does it, racism is hilarious! Huh?

At the game. Davidson's homer was just a rocket.

We have to stop the Mongol Horde.

QUOTE (bmags @ Mar 9, 2017 -> 01:20 PM) Ha, I would love those stories in a way. "An anonymous AL scout said "The Sox aren't attending Houston games. Last one here said "f*** off, Lunhow.""

QUOTE (bmags @ Mar 9, 2017 -> 01:19 PM) Cool, now that i've taken us there. Easy to always want to try and build a team like the last one that won it all. The cubs are a juggernaut of elite power and defense, and incredible depth. But, what an interesting team that could begin to form with a middle of the diamond of Anderson/Moncada/Mateo. What if Mateo could recreate becoming one of the best CF in baseball just because of speed (ala billy hamilton). At that point, you have something interesting. A collection of some incredibly fast players with potential elite defense. That would supplement what looks to be a very promising young staff. If somehow you also get someone like Luis Robert, you are talking about a very interesting outfield. Will it work? Who knows, but power arms and fast as hell players is a cool team imo. If it's Rutherford OR Frazier, I'd agree on taking Mateo. But ideally you get as close to a Sale return as possible.

Based on the Sale deal (with two Top 20 prospects) and their untouchables, I'd say the offer Hahn would go for would be Frazier, Rutherford, Andujar and Clarkin or Tate.

Didn't even realize the number that Katz, Goldberg and Axelrod were on Team Israel. I'm down with Jew Crew so hard. https://theringer.com/americans-are-dominat...9465#.ny4sn8kle

Ethnically/culturally/racially, whichever you want to go with, I identify as Jewish. I've got a lot of friends in the same boat - barely or not not religious at all, but a core part of our identity.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Mar 8, 2017 -> 02:08 PM) Paul Ryan. And the rich people that tell him what to do Ding ding ding. This puts my father's health/life at risk. So unless Republicans come up with an alternative that costs 1 iPhone 7+ a year, f*** them.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Mar 8, 2017 -> 12:07 PM) Unless the Sox think Diaz can become a dominant set up man or closer (if Burdi falters), I would've asked for another bat in place of him...but maybe that's just me. Lord knows we could have used one. If Diaz becomes a rock steady setup man behind Burdi, that's a good get for a fourth piece.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 8, 2017 -> 07:57 AM) Obamacare that will drop about 15 million insured and dramatically increase costs over the current Obamacare, all the while having a much larger negative impact on the poor. It's the worst of all worlds. We're definitely calling this Trumpcare.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Mar 7, 2017 -> 05:30 PM) The White Sox should reprimand all scouts who had any say in acquiring Shields. As cheap as the Sox are, they sure throw away a lot of money due to bad decisions. Then why not let you pitch or Fathom or Caulfield? Just sign some independent league guys to make sure we lose. I can't imagine anybody with a brain paying money to go to any game Shields pitches at the Cell. Same with Holland for that matter. Why would you pay good money to see those stiffs pitch?? I can't believe those of you who love the draft trust our front office to draft impact player(s). There have been so many busts in the past or guys not worthy of being a No. 1 pick. Just look at the Sox history. Cause of the MLB union / Holland might gain some value back

Love Skanberg's work.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Mar 7, 2017 -> 05:54 PM) Since this is the Trump thread, rate his performance so far. I'd give him a 5 out of 10. Despite all the screaming from never-ever Trumpers who would never give him a chance, he hasn't done anything despicable yet, though the new healthcare plan might be even worse than Obamacare. I could give him a 3.5 or 4 after that comes out. I'd give Trump a 9-10 as a businessman. I read somewhere he's worth $3.7 billion. That's a lot of loot. p.s. I'd give Obama a 5-10 as President. As a person I'd give Obama a 9-10. Seems like a great man. 0. He's done nothing productive.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Mar 7, 2017 -> 03:38 PM) Basabe is certainly the wild card in the Sale trade. If he turns into a solid starting CF there's very little to complain about even if Kopech and Moncada don't turn into stars but only solid regulars themselves. The Sox have been killed by having too many "scrubs" a long with their stars. League average production out of CF starting in say 2019 would be a god send for this club. Call and Basabe give me hope for the OF.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Mar 7, 2017 -> 10:04 AM) This is pretty amazing. https://twitter.com/mattmfm/status/839097965050544128 f***ing LOL
