QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 08:51 PM) I blame Ozzie not being our manager anymore I blame the Dodgers' disrespect of the baseball gods.

QUOTE (Baron @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 08:44 PM) Dont expect anything to happen tonight I DEMAND IT TONIGHT

Has something been announced?

QUOTE (ChiSoxFan05 @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 08:28 PM) Danny Knobler also says Rangers are in. DAMNIT f*** the Rangers. ALEXEI! DAYAN! RECRUIT!

If all those reporters are long I'll be shocked.

I'm excited.

According to fWAR: Jones was the 8th most valuable reliever in baseball, Reed the 13th. They were tied for 5th going into September when Reed hit his dead arm period.

From my FB status about the Deadspin article LOL I think the only response is for Wainwright to get pegged next time he pitches. It's the big bad NL where that happens to pitchers.

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Oct 15, 2013 -> 01:38 PM) You talked to every single Cardinals fan? You must have been part of the Applebee's survey team. You know what I mean. It's all you hear from Cards fans. It's always about how great a fanbase they are and how they're always the underdog.

Wait, what happened now? I feel like I missed something in class.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 15, 2013 -> 09:41 AM) I'll be honest, if I am not getting a young superstar bat, I am not trading Chris Sale. Basically I want his equivalent as a hitter. I want Stanton. I want Trout. I don't want prospects. I don't either. Unless it's Trout or Stanton, I want Sale. Those are just packages I'd mull over.

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Oct 11, 2013 -> 03:26 PM) How many Cardinal fans have you actually heard say that? Being in Missouri...every single f***ing one. Go Dodgers.

I posted some deals I'd accept for Sale last time this was brought up... Diamondbacks I'm asking Skaggs, Eaton, Owings, Davidson, Holmberg, Trahan. Pirates I'm asking Tallion, Cole, Polanco, and Hanson. Cardinals I'm asking Wacha, Martinez, Taveras, Adams, and Wong. Red Sox I'm asking Bogaerts, Bradley, Owens, Ranuado, and Cecchini/Brentz Orioles I'm asking Bundy, Britton, Rodriguez, Schoop, and Harvey. The price for Sale is high, astronomical, unprecedented. A team like the Orioles would have to take Dunn. The Cards Alexei. The Pirates Alexei and De Aza. There is a price to get it done, but no team wants to pay it.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 12, 2013 -> 11:59 PM) I just think this is another example of "me first" America, is all. Everybody thinks they are so great and their kids are so great that they shouldn't have to lose a game. I remember one time in grade school, our all white team lost a game to an all black team in the title game of some tournament in inner city Chicago. Everybody thought our bus would get stoned, etc. We lost the game and I remember the handshake line more than the game. It was a great game and lots of handshakes and hugs between the two teams' players. You love Ozzie and half the GOP and are complaining about "me first"?

Just read that Marshall wore his green cleats. What's his fine? Also, f*** yeah Brandon Marshall.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 10, 2013 -> 05:57 PM) I know people are suffering cause they need the work and need the paychecks being denied them because of Obama n the Republicans. I blame our celebrity president for failure to show one iota of leadership skill. So you do have no idea how government works.

QUOTE (knightni @ Oct 10, 2013 -> 12:34 PM) Financially, it could be Danks + Dunn for Ethier + 14 mil. Even better sounding

QUOTE (knightni @ Oct 10, 2013 -> 12:09 PM) John Danks for Ethier and cash makes a bunch of sense, then. I could get behind this.

This is still f***ing stupid.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 10, 2013 -> 01:07 AM) It would be phenomenal reading Ozzie's quotes every day. I bet at this stage he'd do the job for very very little pay. I know he's all about money but to get back in baseball? I bet he'd do it on the cheap. He burned so many bridges he'll never manage again. He's even too radical in that story, too non P.C. to get a team to hire him. He's not giving up his current Marlins money for anything less.
