QUOTE (Tony @ Jan 10, 2017 -> 06:28 PM) #FakeNews Yeah. As much as I hate BuzzFeed, their news department isn't terrible. Now we just wait to see if it ends up being verified in any way, shape or form.

I mean, god damn, we had less damning info on Nixon and Clinton.

That is...astounding.

If we cared about mental health in this country, we really didn't bother showing it at the polls.

I don't know who is better at lying through their teeth between McConnell or Chaffetz.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jan 10, 2017 -> 05:17 PM) I feel like this is a thing that won't be going away. Don't worry, we'll forge tit next week when something even more absurd happens.

QUOTE (heirdog @ Jan 10, 2017 -> 05:09 PM) 3 team trade: White Sox trade Quintana to pirates and Robertson to Nats Pirates trade Keller, Newman, Hayes and Diaz to white Sox and glasnow to Nats Nats trade Robles to white Sox Not a bad three-way deal, but I don't think Pirates part with all five for just Q. A sweetener would need to be thrown in. But that deal would be an absolute monstrous haul. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 10, 2017 -> 04:59 PM) Not to mention there is an element of backbone to these type of deals. If other GMs know they can just wait you out, they won't ever give you their best deal because they know you will knuckle under. Sometimes you have to walk away to show that you will wait out the best offer. Similarly, Rick Hahn has established that if you don't meet his price, don't bother talking to him. The GMs go into these negotiations knowing they have to go up.

I'll give Sessions this, he sure knows how to give good answers that conflict directly with Trump statements.

I think the President-Elect is more out of line with his actions and responses to literally every piece of criticism.

Just because it's the Knicks, I like to imagine he called them repeatedly but they just didn't pickup by mistake.

Frank Isola ✔ @FisolaNYDN There are strong indications that Derrick Rose returned to his hometown of Chicago. Combined with Jo looking really weird when saying he spoke to Derrick...huh?

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 09:34 PM) This is becoming very interesting. Luhnow has shown to be aggressive and being willing to make big trades and sign free agents to contend in '17, and then there's Huntington who literally has no history of making a big trade like this and his additions this year were Nova and Hudson. Yet Huntington is going to pull Meadows and Bell off the table and expect Luhnow not to trump the offer? Meadows and Bell being off the table plays into Luhnow's hands. Huntington is going to f*** this up which is what some Pirate fans have been fearing. Question about Newman. The kid has mad contact skills but with skills like that I would have expected a higher BA than .288 at AA and more extra base hits too. Is Newman making alot of ground ball outs? I'm going to google it but the thought just popped up so I thought I would throw it out there while I was typing this post. Newman has basically no power.

The plot thickens.

Jack Curry ‏@JackCurryYES 58m58 minutes ago In Quintana talks, no doubt White Sox began by asking for Gleyber Torres and Clint Frazier. Again, Cashman said sticker price was too high. Atta boy, Rick.

QUOTE (buhbuhburrrrlz @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 09:15 PM) @FisolaNYDN Derrick Rose attended the Knicks morning shootaround in Westchester, according to a source close to Rose. I don't like where this is going.

Honestly if someone like Jo doesn't know, then that's concerning. Him being an egomaniac would be a relief.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 08:24 PM) Agreed just hate the idea of Newman being the 2nd best bat we get in return for three best trade chips He's the #42 prospect in baseball. If he's the second best bat, that's not a bad place to be. Just for me if it's a 3-player deal, Meadows needs to headline. But if you added Hayes or Diaz? Yeah, I'd take Glasnow/Bell/Newman/Hayez or Diaz for sure.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 08:12 PM) The tweet is great because it is nothing remarkable. Sox want Meadows? Pirates are offering prospects? We knew none of this! The number of prospects is interesting, at least.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 08:08 PM) We gonna get our rumbunter on again? https://twitter.com/rumbunter/status/818638418213224449 3 prospects, but no Meadows? Ehhhh. I could only imagine Glasnow, Bell and Newman would be the offer in that case. But if we're only taking three, I want Meadows.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 04:10 PM) Actually I'm confused too, the artilce is talking about negating all of the top LH pitching with sale/price, etc. Then Melky is even better!

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 04:01 PM) I'm confused. If it says they are seeking another left-handed bat, why are you showing his stats vs Left handed pitching? His lefty stats aren't bad either. .289/.344/.789 Not world beating, but useful.
