QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Jan 19, 2017 -> 01:46 PM) Worth noting that Collins was #2 previously, but that probably has more to do with those ahead of him upping their stock, versus Collins dropping. I expect Collins to move upwards on the top 100 list. Kelley especially.

Perry actually didn't sound half bad in his hearing.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Jan 19, 2017 -> 12:36 PM) I saw a Cubs fan on Twitter yesterday say David Ross is a Hall of Famer. It was unbelievable. Literally everyone gets in at that point.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Jan 19, 2017 -> 11:27 AM) ROFL He regurgitates Rush and Fox News. Don't expect anything else.

His shot died when he had the wrist injury in 2012. He was carrying a near .400 average halfway through the season then it got derailed and his power seemed gone.

QUOTE (steveno89 @ Jan 19, 2017 -> 09:13 AM) Very true http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2687747...culation/page/5 This is from bleacher report today and suggests a Pirates offer of: Meadows + Glasnow + Diaz might work for both sides It suggests the White Sox will ask for Meadows + Glasnow + Keller, but the Pirates would be unwilling to part with that much. They could offer the lower tier Diaz instead to round out the package and fill in a platoon catcher option for the Sox. I'd love a Meadows + Glasnow + Newman deal I'd take a Meadows, Glasnow and Diaz deal any day of the week. That's better than the Eaton deal and probably better than the Sale deal.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jan 19, 2017 -> 12:02 AM) If our country is going to go downhill forevermore, I just wish it'd speed up and Armageddon would be tomorrow. Nobody can hope for the best. Nobody can get behind Trump, whom MILLIONS of AMERICANS voted for. We all despise him. Basically we despise everybody who doesn't agree with us, choose OUR candidate. I don't understand why people don't actually hope for the best at this point. Like I said a lot of successful people, reasonable people think Trump can turn the economy around and maybe the little guy can make as much money as his/her parents made. Right now, that's a dream that never will be a reality. Just think, your kids will never do as well financially as you are doing. GET BEHIND TRUMP until he commits an impeachable offense folks. Let's all prosper! We are Americans! Nah. I'm not one to goosestep to the beat of a racist, xenophobic demagouge. If he actually shows he cares about the American people, sure, but otherwise f*** Trump. Unlike Obama, we don't hate him because of what people say he'll do (take away guns, death panels) but because of what he say's he'll do (build a frivolous wall, ruin NATO, NAFTA, the Paris Agreement, ban Muslims from entering the country, etc.). But that's not what they say on Fox News.

NL Cy Young numbers

Something working in favor of the Sox for Beer is that they play in the AL, whereas all of the other tankers are in the NL.

QUOTE (CWSpalehoseCWS @ Jan 17, 2017 -> 04:54 PM) The politically correct police win again... There was nothing wrong with that tweet. I actually laughed at it. That's not political correctness. It's simply demonstrating maturity levels.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 17, 2017 -> 03:33 PM) 5 days ago. Bluff called.

QUOTE (flavum @ Jan 17, 2017 -> 02:37 PM) Sponsored by Total Lubricants. WTF. It's the gift that keeps on giving.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Jan 17, 2017 -> 10:32 AM) http://m.mlb.com/news/article/213616014/20...picid=151437456 It's crazy to see 3 White Sox on this list. Glasnow is 2 and Martes is 5 which is fun because Sox have been linked to both guys in Quintana talks. Let's get one!

God. Damn.

Let me get in on that vigil.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 16, 2017 -> 08:56 AM) [crosses fingers] For which outcome?

Something happens today or we sacrifice Kyle.

Want Yankees, but I think he ends up with the Pirates for a Glasnow, Bell, Hayes, Diaz package

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 15, 2017 -> 07:56 PM) I keep seeing this said, but why do people think that enough Republicans will vote to impeach him for this to actually happen? Let's not forget that the Democrats haven't held this few legislative seats in what, 100 years? I think he resigns or the corruption becomes to much for the Rands, Rubios and Grahams

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jan 15, 2017 -> 04:13 PM) Yes, I would think Chelsea's possible bid is over. Only hope for her is if she really wants to get in politics, she'd have to win an election in some state as mama did. Like governor of Illinois or senator of New York or something. I mean she could run off her name like Trump, but that probably wouldn't get too far at this point, considering Hillary's bid was for the oval office failed miserably. She was never going to run and quite frankly your opinion is so bad on this that you're missing Trump actually having corruption with his kids.

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Jan 15, 2017 -> 06:47 PM) Would love to see Saladino get the nod at second. Prefer to keep Saladino but his over all game and years of control could have some interesting trade value if he hits well. With Moncada knocking on the door, there's no way Saladino gets second if they long term plans for him.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 15, 2017 -> 05:43 PM) That's a .747 OPS. Todd Frazier put up a .766 OPS last year at 3b while being a poor baserunner and fielder. If Saladino puts up those kind of numbers at 3b or 2b, that's a path towards a 4 WAR season unless he only plays 2/3 of the season. If he hits 11 HR in 2/3 of a season that's one impressive power surge for him. Wasn't Saladino on track to have one of the best defensive seasons ever at 3B his rookie year?

Topic title has been changed to better keep track of these threads.

QUOTE (Alpha Dog @ Jan 14, 2017 -> 11:37 AM) Stop making your mission to bring trump down. Your mission should be to report, good or bad. Not taking anything you can and finding the worst angle to put on it. Just report, good and bad. Reporting facts doesn't matter with him. He'll attack journalists anyway.

QUOTE (Middle Buffalo @ Jan 14, 2017 -> 08:01 AM) Nobody was beating Trump this year. Trump would have done the same thing to Biden, Sanders, Warren, etc that he did to Hillary and all the Republicans he beat. He would have made it about personal attacks. Normal politicians don't know how to respond to that. Trump won the nomination of his party and the presidency without offering real, substantive plans for his presidency. The voters didn't care. They don't care that since the election, he has already backed away from and changed many of the plans he did run on. It was the perfect strorm. It should be an interesting few years. Going into election day, I thought Trump winning was impossible. Now I honestly think that only Obama could have beat him.
