QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jun 16, 2015 -> 02:23 PM) So which of these is most likely the truth: A) Astros are the only team Cardinals attempted to hack B) Cardinals attempted to hack several teams but were only successful with the Astros C) Cardinals successfully hacked several teams but Astros are the only one we know about right now Probably B.

Waiting for Star Fox games has been why I haven't gotten a Nintendo console in a while. That combined with FF7, Kingdom Hearts 3 and Fallout 4 have me going nuts.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 15, 2015 -> 02:20 PM) There's rumors of a FF7 HD Remake on PS4. It wouldn't be the first time, but the source (Siliconera) is fairly reputable. Fingers crossed. Confirmed. Announcement trailer pretty. Quin happy.

QUOTE (shipps @ Jun 15, 2015 -> 05:25 PM) I am sure its already been discussed in here but how the hell is it that all the Royals are leading these ASG votes? I didn't realize there was a massive Royal nation out there. The Kansas City fans are little s***s. They legitimately think they are the best team in baseball with no holes and deserve all nine starters. They also think everyone is being mean to their team. I hope Rios gets in over Trout. The ASG voting might actually get done away with.

Love is no guarantee. JR might have actually played himself into a deal. TT, Delly and Shumpert are all RFAs. The Cavs might go straight to cap hell with the way those four played this playoffs.

QUOTE (thxfrthmmrs @ Jun 14, 2015 -> 08:22 PM) For years we defended Rose and his lack of assist because of a s***ty supporting cast. Well look at how Lebron is passing the ball with what would be the worst supporting cast in NBA Finals history. 2001 Sixers?

If the Sox can dump Alexei, would anyone else be interested in buying low on Chris Owings?

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 13, 2015 -> 11:23 PM) The Cavs will win Game Five. LeBron is better than a lot of people think. Cleveland finally wins a championship this year its first in any major sport since 1964. I think he might get a max deal. Hard to tell. Not a lot of people think he's that great. QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 14, 2015 -> 02:14 PM) Why is he a dick? All the charity work and stuff he does? The lack of DUI's and off court incidents? I hate him cuz he knocks the Bulls out, not because of what kind of person he is. He's kind of a dick on the court and in pressers. I definitely sports hate him, but I respect him off the court. Just on the court with the flopping, the whining, the dancing vs. the Bulls years ago, "not 1, not 2, not 3", mocking Dirk's illness, attacking the media, Rome wasn't built in one day, etc.

f***.

Praise be unto Chris Sale, Lord of the Pitch

Is Chris Sale real?

Dear lord, Flowers.

Offense!

1 run in the first? I'll take it. Now Shark just needs to not give up more.

Well, at least some luck there.

I can't tell from any angle what happened.

Ugh Shark...

Rick can't trade for a catcher fast enough. Jesus.

Wasn't Jake Elmore supposed to be an amazing future star according to one poster here?

Thought that was gone.

Can I take next Friday-Sunday off for a wedding? Friday is needed to make the six hour drive, though probably longer post knee-surgery, Saturday is the wedding and Sunday is the drive back? Is that acceptable?

Danks will use smoke and mirrors, throws a gem.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 12, 2015 -> 05:34 AM) Well it was certainly a summer that money needed to be spent. I simply think we went the wrong way about it, buying players who have less long-term upside with little resale value if things go south. I would have spent money, just not in the same way. I've said I would not have made the Samardzija trade, so I now have Semien who I start at second, and Phegley who can platoon catch (as well as Ravelo who I believe can be a major league first baseman). I said I would have gone after Miguel Montero, who was picked up for a 40 future value rated prospect as well as a prospect not rated yet by Fangraphs, so I give up a little more than that, something like Hawkins/Thompson. I said I would have picked up Wandy Rodriguez off waivers. I would have outbid the Giants for Nori Aoki. I would have gone after Brandon McCarthy. I would have gone after Jason Hammel. Danks to the pen. I would have gone after Luke Hochevar. I would have seriously considered Headley, but apparently he only wanted the Yankees, so I would have gone for Jung-ho Kang and platooned him with Gillaspie. I go after Seth Smith and give up a little more than Maurer to do it. I DH Avi. Rotation: Sale Quintana McCarthy (blew out his arm, but maybe that doesn't happen here, if it does I'd promote from within) Hammel Rodriguez That's to start the year, and I have big depth (I love starting pitching depth) with Rodon, Junior Guerra, E.Johnson and my boy Surkamp as next in line to come up. Starting: Eaton CF Semien 2B Abreu 1B Smith LF Garcia DH Kang/Gillaspie platoon 3B Aoki RF Montero/Phegley platoon C Ramirez SS Bullpen: Danks Petricka Putnam Whichever 2 of Rodon/Guerra/Surkamp that are not in rotation Hochevar I believe I spend about 100 million in this scenario, accounting for overbidding other team, as well as assuming the remaining 40 million on Montero's contact. I think it results in a much better team (bar the bullpen) with players that can more easily be flipped if things go south. We'd be in a lot worse position for both now and the future with this rotation.
