QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 4, 2014 -> 08:50 PM) I am enjoying the game with Vin tonight good chance next time Sox play Dodgers, Vin may be retired. Indeed. The riffing about the Beckham family... I wish the Sox had enough respect for their viewers/listeners to fire everyone and start over.

Listening to Vin Skully tell Don Zimmer stories was pretty awesome. Now a Leury homer?

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 4, 2014 -> 08:42 PM) Is that Van Slyke's number? If he wore his jersey number on his ass.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 3, 2014 -> 06:15 PM) Tyler Danish 5.0 IP, 2H, 0R, 1BB, 5K Nice to see him rebound after a rocky start to his WS stop.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 3, 2014 -> 05:05 PM) Any idea that Quintana could somehow have had a better learning curve than what we've seen from him isn't one I'll agree with. I don't think my attempt at humor made it through written word.

Did Buehrle and Quintana have any roster overlap? Would be interested to see what Jose could have gleaned from Buehrle in regards to TWTW and all that non-statistical bulls***.

I'm gonna play dumb here, but why would you trade a relatively cheap, elite MLB-top-5 (arguably top-2) SS??? Even though KennyVP and RickyGM are rebuilding, he's young enough and still improving to the point where he'll be around when the team contends... Why trade him? There is no one in the pipeline that can play at half his production. The SS in the minors are noodle-bat, defense-first guys. Gordon Beckham has settled nicely into the defense-first category, and we Soxtalkers can't wait to ride his ass out of town. Let's say the Sox do trade Ramirez. A week after the trade, this board will blow up with how dumb a move it was and how terrible [insert whatever AAAA "prospect" the Sox call up here] has been. Trading him is stupid. Stupid. If there's a list of untouchable Sox players, he's #2. CHRIS SALE Alexei Ramirez Jose Abreu Jose Quintana Everyone else on the team can go f*** off.

After going to the Watch_Dogs launch event, playing the video game for a week straight, I'll be putting down the controller for Soul Suspect tonight. I suspect that I will be playing Watch_Dogs by tomorrow evening, though. Soul Suspect looks awesome, but Watch_Dogs is sooo good. The negative reviews are just idiotic.

QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Jun 3, 2014 -> 03:52 PM) I love it when people cry so much over something that does not affect their lives in the least bit. The Sox are a multi-million dollar business. They want the people that represent the business on a global scale to be well groomed and have a reasonably nice appearance. There is nothing wrong with that at all. Nearly every business in the world has some sort of dress or appearance code, why should the Sox be any different. There's also absolutely nothing wrong with having a f***ing beard, either.

I'd like to take Rick Hahn and Robin Ventura for a walk through our development department. THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF NECKBEARDS!

This is so incredibly stupid I am beyond words.

In other news, the girl who does the little cutaway cooking tips on Nick JR is super hawt.

Kershaw would have batted third on the 2013 White Sox.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 2, 2014 -> 09:46 PM) Moises Sierra's 2014 wRC+ is 12. Next lowest of players with 85+ PA is 20. I wonder what it looks like with only his CHA games included in the stat.

Watching a Sox/Dodgers game on the MLB.tv Dodgers feed, I learned that Dewayne Wise loves baseball so much he turned down a college scholarship to play football and has the MLB logo tattooed on his upper arm.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 2, 2014 -> 08:29 PM) I am watching Dodger feed Vin is a joy to listen to. Kershaw 12 pitches 2 innings yikes. Their feed with Charley Steiner is just as good... Dodgers fans are very lucky.

Clayton Kershaw will pitch his first career no-hitter tonight.

Every single team is going to add this to their scouting report on Abreau. "He is a huge v*****. Throw at him."

f***ing release/fire whoever threw the ball.

Is Liddi on the roster still or did they release him?

I would avoid drafting Rodon simply because his uniform is way the f*** too tight.

a guy... named Nola.... who goes to LSU. Can't make this stuff up.

They might as well let a position player pitch against Kershaw. No Sale? No win.

QUOTE (flavum @ May 28, 2014 -> 10:11 AM) I'd bet anything they just keep him on schedule. Monday vs Kershaw. Oh boy... fan-of-elite-pitching-baseball-boner-time

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ May 28, 2014 -> 08:17 AM) Did you know Tanaka or Abreu were going to be free agents in May last year? Speaking of which, can you imagine how good Tanaka would look wedged between Sale and Quintana? Talk about a core to move forward with... Man, I'm still bummed he signed with the Yankees.
