MLBTradeRumors Offseason Outlook
QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Oct 13, 2015 -> 12:50 AM) Arenado is not on the block. If he was, you're not getting him for Q. Now you want him and CarGo for Q? That deal would take you Sale, Q, Fullmer, and Abreu. I don't think you realize how much Colorado wants to build around Arenado. I think you honestly have a better shot at getting Stanton. Either which way, out of the midlevel options I really like Murphy & Fowler as well. Just as he is undervaluing Arenado and CarGo, you're severely undervaluing Q, Sale, Fulmer and Abreu.

I'll miss his writing, but congrats to Kiley.

Bill Simmons leaving ESPN
Seems like Jonah Keri will be one, if we want to look too hard into him responding to Jim Miller's tweet.

Cubs-Cards NLDS
QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 11, 2015 -> 01:32 PM) At least the Cubs don't self proclaim themselves as the best fans in baseball They also aren't telling rival fans to root for them and expect everyone to pull for their team. QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 11, 2015 -> 07:17 PM) Well, they're calling themselves America's Team lately. Also, 22 mph wind blowing straight out tomorrow...yuck And this.

ALDS: Astros vs. Royals Thread
QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 11, 2015 -> 02:20 PM) How could anybody pay Gordon more than 8-10 million a year is beyond me. What a bad signing he'll be for 18-25 million a year. His offensive value is solely by the geek stat OBP. His traditional stats of RBIs, BA and HRs are OK, by no means great. He's a great defensive player. But what is a GM thinking if he pays him 20 million a year for 5-8 years? He's 31 year old Alex Gordon for gawdsakes not some almighty stud. I guess he'd be a good acquisition for the Sox just to get some defense out there. But he's no ultra elite player. I forgot that walks aren't important.

Cardinals fans are beyond pompous. But somehow less so than Cubs fans.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 10, 2015 -> 08:51 AM) So Lackey going to his mouth is why the Cuns scored 0 runs. God I hope they get swept. It will be bad enough hearing how the 2016 WS trophy is already sitting in Theo's office, but there seems to be excuses every time they lose, how something was unfair. Yet Cubs fans won't acknowledge Arrieta's massive zone or Kang's injury.

Sox got back almost nothing from break up of 2012 squad
I like that this thread is bascially complaining the Sox were holding onto productive players.

2016 MLB Draft
QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Oct 8, 2015 -> 02:00 PM) Ever since the current CBA came into effect, the Sox are a fairly good drafting team, at least when it comes to first round picks. I would like to see them become a little more creative when it comes to spreading out the bons pool. This past year was a step in the right direction.

Everyone calm down with the insults. The Cubs aren't worth it.

2015 Wild Card Games
QUOTE (AustinIllini @ Oct 7, 2015 -> 08:17 PM) Sorry, I just hate having to constantly defend myself from people who feel it's not okay to admire the Cubs if you're a White Sox fan. Nah man, that's ok. But it's also ok to hate them.

2015 Wild Card Games
QUOTE (AustinIllini @ Oct 7, 2015 -> 08:14 PM) I don't like the Patriots but I admire Tom Brady? I'm a lifelong Bears fan. You need to readjust your definition of fandom. I'm defending you here. You clearly admire and respect the Cubs as an organization. I'm not saying you're a fan of them.

Guys, there's no questioning AustinIllini is a Sox fan. He just holds extreme admiraton for the Cubs.

QUOTE (AustinIllini @ Oct 7, 2015 -> 08:05 PM) It has NOTHING to do with you. Seriously, what is your problem? He can dislike the team and the bandwagon. He has to experience it around him. Therefore it does have something to do with him.

Mark Buehrle to retire?
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 7, 2015 -> 07:53 AM) Supposedly, Buehrle had 4 cortisone shots into his shoulder this season. Chances are, he's hanging them up. Goddamn

Has trayce won CF?
QUOTE (Big Hurtin @ Oct 6, 2015 -> 10:35 PM) Nah, they need more than that, even assuming 20+ for Trayce (which I'm not). Who is a LF you're anticipating will provide 30+ HR?
