Quin

This is the best first round of playoffs ever. Bulls-Celtics is still the best first round series ever.

QUOTE (Stan Bahnsen @ May 3, 2014 -> 07:29 AM) Hmmm, and he's Cuban. I hope he's ours at 1-3. He's Cuban and thinks he can be a LOOGY in August. Get 'em.

The Trailblazers will see your Parsons and raise you a Lillard.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 1, 2014 -> 11:07 PM) Law seems to rank Feede higher than most. With that said, Law suggested in his chat today that the Sox would take either Aiken or Kolek if they are available. And Hahn thinks Rodon is the best college arm. Seriously, walk away with one of Rodon, Kolek, or Aiken and things should be happy.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ May 1, 2014 -> 09:29 PM) He must play the whole damn infield Seriously. It seems like he could make the majors on his glove alone. Hopefully Davidson forgets April ever happened. Same for Beck. Micah is awesome.

All hail Lord Steverson.

QUOTE (Marty34 @ Apr 30, 2014 -> 08:19 PM) I did not write the quote you attributed to me SS2K5 and according to the guidelines of this site "You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this bulletin board to post any material which is knowingly bulls***. Then whining about it makes you look like a fool." Quote has been edited by alias "Quinarvy" for parody purposes and thus fair use, as defined in 510 U.S. 569.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 29, 2014 -> 10:15 AM) I think it is hilarious. They threw Chicago out of the balloting on the first round because of some silly politics. You can say a lot of things about Chicago, but they live for stuff like this. The Olympics, while probably way over budget, would have been done first class. Chicago would have thrown one hell of an Olympics. Obviously it wouldn't happen, but I wonder if the IOC called up Chicago if they could throw it together in time.

Got a gift there, did nothing.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Apr 29, 2014 -> 06:54 PM) Josh Feldman ‏@BigTexJosh 21m Cleuluis Rondon just bare-handed a ball from behind the third baseman & flung it over to first for an out… because he’s friggen amazing. I need video of this.

Loving that Hawkins has seemed to drastically improve his approach at the plate. Ravelo, Trayce, and Micah are all killing it. Something needs to be done with Davidson.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 28, 2014 -> 10:12 PM) Next Jose Quintana? Worth a shot?

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 29, 2014 -> 02:30 AM) What are you talking about? That quote doesn't settle the bet. I said we could contend (win the division, OK) if we had Reed. That would bolster the bullpen and we could win the mediocre to lousy to pathetic division. What are you guys talking about?? QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Apr 28, 2014 -> 02:55 PM) Still not what he said, but the fact that it's even close enough to be implied is so disheartening to see. Damnit Greg, I was trying to stick up for the poor guy.

All hail lord Abreu. And Rienzo and Carroll stepping up big time this week. Hopefully that lights a fire under EJ's ass and maybe Paulino can flourish in the pen.

If Cubans want to succeed, they must come to Chicago. We are Big Havana.

Watching Dayan be a calm hitter is weird.

He's a machine.

QUOTE (Alpha Dog @ Apr 28, 2014 -> 03:04 PM) I would leave this place for Texas, Missouri, Arizona, Tennessee or Montana, but wife won't go. She MIGHT accept Missouri, but not at this moment. Having lived in Missouri the past three years, I'd advise you to reconsider.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Apr 28, 2014 -> 02:50 PM) Quinarvy can have my beer, greg sometimes you can be both Finding damning quotes is my main skill. (I'll never let me vs. Victory be forgotten)

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 28, 2014 -> 02:14 PM) Find that quote of mine and I'll buy you a beer someday. Never said that. Said we could win this crap division (if Sale was healthy as well) and got attacked. Ask and thou shalt receive. QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 24, 2014 -> 03:52 PM) It shouldn't be. Not in this pathetic division. It was winnable with Reed IMO.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Apr 28, 2014 -> 01:19 PM) The whole thing is pretty disgusting but anyone that thinks Sterling is the only owner in pro sports that feels that way is delusional. He is an old bigot that will never change. Something humorous that I saw on ESPN was Chris Broussard up in arms over what Sterling said. Broussard should understand how Sterling feels. He hates gay people for no apparent reason. What a hypocrite that clown is. I laughed at that. f*** Broussard and his multiple sources.

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 28, 2014 -> 11:54 AM) Dunn picked up the check for Carroll's family and friend's dinner celebration last night. Cool move. For all his faults as a player, Dunn seems like an A+ human being

Don't f*** with the unwritten rules.

Count me in the group of people that were all on board with trading Alexei and Dayan and are reluctant now. Alexei I need to be blown away, Viciedo I'm holding onto due to his youth. I don't think it's a coincidence that the three Cubans are all mashing. I think DV and Alexei have to be of some help to Abreu adapting, while he might be having some type of positive effect on them and teaching them things that a hitting coach couldn't. Makes me want to get Yasmani Grandal all the more if the FO thinks he'd be an upgrade on Flowers.
