I like Russ. The OKC front office and coaching staff are garbage, especially the past few years.

I would trade Viciedo, Beck, and Semien or Sanchez for him. Hell no on Anderson.

**Official 2014 World Series Thread**
My friend just said this was one of the most intense series of the past decade and that the Giants were the underdog. No. This was one of the worst World Series of the past decade and the Giants were certainly not the decade.

2015 MLB Draft
QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Oct 29, 2014 -> 03:50 PM) Rendon got hurt, though. A pitcher slipping because of injury is scarier than a position player doing the same, But then someone like Trea Turner who was a projected Top 5 pick slipped without injury. Like if Mautella has a "drop off" like Rodon had plus + a couple prospects appear out of nowhere (ex. Aiken), I'd be so crazily ecstatic. It was thought impossible Rodon would end up at 3 and he was one of the most hyped prospects of all time.

2015 MLB Draft
Part of me is really hoping Mautella slips, like Rodon did, but even farther. Wasn't Anthony Rendon projected as a first overall pick in 2011 then fell? Yeah, I want that.

2014 Films Thread
QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Oct 28, 2014 -> 03:51 PM) And as long as Marvel continues to release quality movies I don't get the complaint. I have 0 faith that WB will make quality films with the DC characters but I just won't see those so it doesn't impact me at all. All comic book movies are the same.

QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 28, 2014 -> 03:16 PM) Does that mean all the actors are in for those two movies? If we're talking Infinity War, my guess is that it's being shot as one film.

Mark Buehrle
Worth noting: I'd be fine with 5 lefties in the rotation because Sale, Quintana and Buehrle all throw drastically different games. Then you have Rodon who could be another ace.

Mark Buehrle
I just don't want him on any AL Central team, the Yankees, Red Sox or Cubs.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 25, 2014 -> 11:45 PM) One of these days you will give credit to the 05 Sox rotation for being so good, instead of just using it as excuse to praise Ozzie. QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 26, 2014 -> 02:35 AM) The main reason I bring it up is to not glorify Oz any more but to point out the insanity of baseball. Managers won't let these pitchers go deep into games at all. It's ruining baseball. Every pitch was a crucial pitch in the third fricking inning. There's no rhythm to the games. A game in an NL park goes 4 fricking hours tonight? Like I said, I wouldn't have been surprised had Vargas been pinch hit for in the third. Ridiculous. I contrast it to Ozzeroo who let our guys FINISH f***ing games heaven forbid. Greg, Ozzie did let them finish, but the '05 staff was on cruise control in the playoffs. Ozzie didn't pull them because it didn't make sense. They're pitch counts weren't high, opponents weren't hitting them, etc. That being said, I do see where Greg is coming from to a degree.

Moises Sierra claimed by Royals
QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Oct 25, 2014 -> 12:32 AM) Uh, Jordan Danks is probably the best defensive OF in our entire system.... Don't let his overall defensive metrics fool you. For some reason he has been terrible in LF/RF in his career in the majors, but legendary in CF. In 2012, he only played 84 innings in CF, but of all majors leaguers who logged 80+ innings in CF, Danks had the best UZR/150 with Anthony Gose at 54.9. The next guy had 42. This season he was 14th in UZR/150 with 16.4. Eaton was 34th, at -3.8. Obviously Danks is only working with really small sample sizes, but while he was in our minor leagues, he annually was considered our best defensive OFer. The dude has crazy range and instincts in CF. It's a shame the bat never caught up to D2's glove. He'd have a couple GGs.

Damn Royals. I liked Sierra as a 4th OF.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Oct 24, 2014 -> 09:49 AM) So I picked up SoM. The reviews were right: it's Assassins Creed and Arkham Asylum set in LotR. Pretty awesome a few hours in. Do the Gollum missions. I neglected them but you get powers that you'll need to deal with orcs. You start off all powerful, but damn does it get hard at some point.

Your 2015 Offseason Plan
Heyward is a guy that could get me talking about anyone outside of Anderson, Rodon and Adams. I'd offer up a package with Danish/Montas, Johnson/Hawkins, Semien/Sanchez and Ravelo/Davidson for Heyward.
