I'm crazy but still holding out the slimmest hope for Melo. The Bulls with Melo and the Cavs with LeBron and Love in addition to the Wizards and Pacers would at least give the East four fun teams to watch. Bosh in Houston would make them even more fun to watch. But it all rests on Melo actually deciding to go with the Bulls and LeBron leaving the Heat.

Robbed Chris. f*** this bullpen.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 08:35 PM) 4 finals and two rings. No matter what happens, they got theirs. Now it' back to reality for them. Didn't say it was a failure, just fascinating.

Well, f*** you Chris for not covering second and getting taken out of the game.

No Robin. Bad. No. Leave him.

...infield double?

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 08:20 PM) SportsCenter ‏@SportsCenter 1m Chris Bosh has decided to sign with Rockets if LeBron James leaves Heat. Man, the Heatles are going to go down as one of the more fascinating stories in sports history.

Top 10 things hitters have said vs. Sale was fantastic.

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 08:10 PM) Garcia is not the prototypical outfielder in terms of body type, and his speed will leave him as his body continues to grow and you'll find guy with bodies like his either playing first or DHing. I think that Garcia could be a plus defender at first and maybe even an upgrade at first over Abreu, who's glove hasn't been that bad in his defense. Plus if you have Abreu and Garcia as your 1B/DH it allows to put another athlete in the outfield, which could help out the teams defense. And can he please switch out of #26, it looks horrible on him. 1) This is stupid. He has athleticism, it's just he got bad reads. You have no idea how his body will hold up. Manny didn't fit the body type, you can argue Andruw Jones didn't later in his career. 2) Why? What reasoning? And stop trying to put Abreu at DH unless his glove is actually hurting the team, which it isn't. 3) ...ok, this just is griping just to gripe.

As much as I hope it still comes to fruition for the Bulls, I do expect him to resign with the Knicks.

s*** is about to go down.

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 01:10 AM) If I were Robin, I would move Garcia to 1B full time and move Abreu to DH, that would allow me to get more athletic in the field and could fill some holes for the team going forward. (And if anyone thinks that the Sox are going to contend for a playoff spot/make the playoffs this year is insane, and I think Rick Hahn knows that. The 'rebuilding' effort wasn't to going to be a one year thing. It is more beneficial to the Sox if they deal guys like Dunn, Danks, Ramirez and Viciedo so that they can bring up and see what they have in guys like Matt Davidson and Micah Johnson, etc. And most importantly they get a higher draft and more money to spend on the intl markett, which is more beneficial to the long term health of the franchise than making the playoffs.) ' What is everyone's obsession with moving Abreu to DH? He's hitting fine at 1B and you don't know if DHing would affect that and he is also fine defensively out there.

Recap: http://www.chicagonow.com/future-sox/2014/07/7814/

Yeah, we had Road to Rodon last year, so no tanking this year. They have to be like 10 games out by the end of August for me to entertain the idea.

QUOTE (Boogua @ Jul 8, 2014 -> 02:05 PM) Butterfly effect. I think if they draft a guy like Drummond over Waiters they might not be in the lottery this year. True. But seriously, they suck at drafting. And it's not in retrospect either. I remember people questioning all those picks (ESPECIALLY Bennett).

Honestly the longer it draws out, the better for the Bulls in my opinion. If it was all about money it'd be done. Also, lol at the Cavs. They could have drafted Len, Noel, Oladipo or McLemore last year over Bennett. Or Andre Drummond the year before over Waiters. And Valančiūnas before then over Tristan Thompson We could have been looking at Kyrie - Wiggins - LeBron - and then any of the two above bigs.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 8, 2014 -> 11:54 AM) Kevin Milligan (whoever that is): Richards is the easy choice. 10 wins, an ERA under 3.00, and over 110 Ks. Come on people! Except Sale is better, thus easy choice.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jul 7, 2014 -> 09:55 PM) Mario Kart 8. So fun. So my son with this game (he is 7). First of all he is just ruthless. I used to let him win sometimes when he was 3 or 4 but now he talks so much hot s*** during the game that when I have the chance to, I destroy him. He shows me no mercy so I respond in kind. This past weekend he asks me: Him: So dad do you like winning? Me: Sure. Him: Do you like losing? Me: No. Him: Not even a little bit? Me: Not really. Him: Well you better get used to losing, because you're about to get OWNED! Then the next day we're playing one of the N64 retro tracks. He says "did you like this track when you played it in olden times?" That is quality trash talk.

Nice play by Jose.

Cubans heating up.

This is essentially the definition of put your money where your mouth is.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 7, 2014 -> 07:01 PM) Me after reading this - My death is on you. Seriously. It's a good trade for the Cubs.

If Shark is really criticizing the Cubs (like I believe Kyyle said?) toss in Garza's comments and Theo saying EJax's contract was a massive mistake (which it was) while he's still on the roster and it'll be really hard for them to attract big name pitchers at good prices if the Ricketts are as poor as they claim.

If LeBron goes to Cleveland, Bosh to the Rockets and Melo to the Bulls, I would laugh so hard at Wade.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 6, 2014 -> 11:27 PM) I wouldn't tie Mark's making it as a negative. Both should have made it. Buehrle defines 'all star' and deserves it. Obviously Sale deserves it too. He better win that contest to get on the team. If the AL wants to win, he should be on the team. Green text = sarcasm, my friend. Buehrle deserved it this year, no doubt.
