  1. Yes, I think every single pitcher the Sox have that is throwing well is 100% guaranteed to have a debilitating injury any day now. We should stop using all of our good pitchers immediately.
  2. If the Bears are 8/1 at one place and 22/1 at another, then bet $1955.55 against them at the first place and $100 on them at the second place and you're guaranteed a profit of $244.45
  3. The outfielders don't miss enough games to justify using up two bench spots on just outfielders. I'd rather have Lillibridge, who can play 7 positions and is a faster runner than Johnson. If you can get Johnson cheaply and want to have him take Danks' spot, I could be on board with that, but I don't like having only one option to cover all the infield positions.
  4. That OBP difference is countered by Viciedo having more HR, more RBI, and having a much better arm in LF. Viciedo is also a young talent who is improving and you're risking stunting his growth by platooning him.
  5. I've always maintained that, in the AL, you should be able to generate enough offense from your DH/1B/3B/LF/RF that you can afford to have an offensive liability who is a stud defender at either SS or CF, and maybe even both. If Mackowiak over Anderson improves your team offense significantly, then your team offense is pretty bad to start with, and then why bother?
  6. That would require Beckham to be on base, wouldn't it?
  7. Morel has options left, so the maximum amount of rehab time is irrelevant, unless the Sox want to keep paying him major league salary for the entire 20 days for some reason.
  8. Stats after 90 games: Team is 5th in AL in runs, 12th in 2B, 1st in 3B, 4th in HR, 7th in OPS, 5th in K, 9th in BB, 7th in SB, 3rd in SAC Team is 7th in ERA, 1st in CG, 2nd in SO, 2nd in QS, 2nd in (fewest) BB, 5th in K, 2nd in WHIP, 4th in K/BB Konerko is 5th in AVG, 5th in OBP, 10th in OPS Rios is 8th in AVG, 1st in 3B, 7th in GIDP De Aza is 8th in R, 1st in 3B, 9th in SB Dunn is 1st in HR, 3rd in RBI, 1st in BB, 1st in K Viciedo is 7th in GIDP Morel is 7th in SAC Peavy is 4th in IP, 6th in K, 4th in WHIP, 8th in ERA, 2nd in CG, 4th in SO, 3rd in K/BB Sale is 3rd in W, 3rd in WHIP, 1st in ERA, 4th in K/BB Reed in 9th in SV Humber is 4th in SO
  9. Unless Morel is learning 1B and OF during his rehab, he isn't going to be back up with the Sox this season. There's no room on the roster for a bench player who only plays one position, unless that position is C.
  10. If the Sox lead hadn't been 4+ runs, Thornton probably doesn't stay in the game to face Shoppach.
  11. Injuries can cause any team to not make the playoffs, but I would certainly give the Bears a better than 50% chance. If healthy, the Bears are anywhere from the 2nd-4th best team in the NFC.
  12. Bad news for #WhiteSox: Two weeks includes a series against Detroit.
  13. I'd LOVE to see more John Danks at bats this year, cause that would mean he's pitching in an NL park in the World Series.
  14. So if he gets released by Boston, do the Sox pick him back up to replace Hudson?
  15. Yeah, the Sox have no need for a guy who shut out the Red Sox for 7 innings and the Twins for 8 innings last month.
  16. I've started scouting Twitter and other message boards for info from k0na (who has broken trades/signings in the past), and nothing from him yet.
  17. I just got in and haven't read the whole thread so sorry if this has been brought up already, but I'm watching the CSN feed on mlb.tv and I have a picture with CSN's graphics, and I can hear game sounds but no announcers. Anybody watching on mlb.tv or CSN having the same issue?
  18. This is one of the biggest misconceptions about official scoring. An error CAN be charged in those cases, but is almost never is.

  20. http://www.baseballprospectus.com/article....articleid=17623 Is there something I'm missing here, or is this guy way off base not having AJ as a Top 10 catcher for 2012?
  21. Don't buy new cars because they depreciate about 15% the minute you drive them off the lot. Have had 8 different GM and Chrysler vehicles in the past and have had major mechanical problems with every single one. Most recently have had two Toyota vehicles with no problems at all. We're hooked on Toyotas for life.
  22. Notre Dame plays Navy in Dublin September 1.
