QUOTE (raBBit @ May 7, 2014 -> 09:15 PM) The nightmare scenario for me is Rodon-Aiken going 1-2. I'd still be ok with Kolek and that fireball.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 7, 2014 -> 08:31 PM) Who got sent packing? Jordan Danks.

THE BACON SLAYER HAS RETURNED

QUOTE (DirtySox @ May 7, 2014 -> 07:46 PM) How is this a nightmare scenario? Aiken is largely considered to be the best player in the draft class. Getting a player of his caliber at 3 would be fantastic. This. The nightmare scenario is taking someone other than Kolek/Aiken/Rodon

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 7, 2014 -> 03:45 PM) Semien turns 24 in September. He's shown enough big-league skills to warrant being in the big leagues. I don't think my post is ridiculous either. Who would you rather have? Semien or DeAza? Semien or Kepp? Semien or Beckham. Yes I'd dump any one of those guys for a bag of balls to keep Semien. What do you guys think Beckham, Kepp and DeAza are worth?? Not much on the trade market, basically nothing. I mean, that goes without saying.

If you take a pitcher with TJ surgery over one of the big three pitchers, you're insane.

Yup, taking anyone but Kolek/Aiken/Rodon would be foolish beyond belief. No way Hoffman slides to the second round, but that'd be a good grab, even with injury.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ May 7, 2014 -> 11:50 AM) Sign me up as well. I love pitching, defense and situational hitting / baseball. Pitcher duals are some of the best things in sports.

Maybe EJ just had jitters?

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ May 7, 2014 -> 11:17 AM) He can't be a placeholder unless he clears waivers. Even if you make him the last of the three to go, eventually he, Semien, and Danks all have to go down when Gillaspie, Eaton and Keppinger return. Unless you are going to send LGarcia down and make Beckham the backup shortstop. Of course, if they really like this guy I'm 100% behind cutting Keppinger loose. I'd be cool with that.

QUOTE (flavum @ May 6, 2014 -> 11:15 PM) Davidson has a hand injury. Sounds minor. Hopefully time off clears his head.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ May 6, 2014 -> 05:17 PM) The OS roster had him 74 OVR I think, I bumped that up to around 79-80 and upped his potential a bit. When I get it, I'll be making sure to bump him up like crazy.

Classy.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ May 6, 2014 -> 07:19 PM) Noesi perfect game through 1 Jinxed it.

QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ May 6, 2014 -> 09:33 AM) It was a line of questioning that didnt require a thread or..well...even a full question....to be answered I wonder if some sort of thread for things such as this might exist.

So, saw Ozzie debating with Kruk last night on ESPN. When the hell did this happen? Greg is rejoicing beyond belief.

QUOTE (danman31 @ May 6, 2014 -> 01:15 AM) Second Son won't last you as long. Even if you do both good and bad playthroughs it's 20 hours. It's great fun, but not earth shattering. A sports game will always last longer if that's what you're going for. Gonna get both eventually.

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ May 6, 2014 -> 01:26 AM) You're Rick Hahn and Aiken and Kolek are off the board, who do you take at pick #3? Rodon.

I'm gonna get MLB: The Show or Second Son as a "finished this semester" gift to myself. Recommendations on which one?

No one can withstand the power of The Flying Serpent.

Awwww yeaaaah. Suck it Cubs.

I would like some runs please. And all hail Webb.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 5, 2014 -> 09:57 PM) Can't believe what they got compared to us for Peavy Hopefully Avi comes back better then ever and Rondon, Montas, and Wendelken actually all are looking like they could be something. But you're right, they fleeced the Rangers.

QUOTE (Tex @ May 5, 2014 -> 04:59 PM) This. It seems like their are dire warning about every venue in the past 30 years. Then they pull a miracle out of their ass. Except Sochi.

QUOTE (Tmar @ May 5, 2014 -> 03:13 PM) Gotcha Bastard.
