QUOTE (ptatc @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 11:45 AM) I think you leave Jackson at 2 where he's been hitting well. I agree. Lawrie Ks too much for the two hole. He can run into a ball once in while in seems.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 11:41 AM) One thing I do agree with Caulfield on is Avi Garcia is on the clock. I think he's next. If he isn't hitting, he's totally worthless. So a rotating DH makes sense before Morneau or another bat arrives. Would AAA do Avi any good or is he just cooked?

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 11:36 AM) Wouldn't surprise me to see Saladino play 2B and 3B from time to time and Frazier and Lawrie DHing. And Anderson will get a day or two off a week at SS I would imagine. Can't throw him totally to the wolves. Yeah I guess this could work. I didn't know Lawrie's glove got better, he was a bobbling buffoon not to long ago.

How is a rapist a f***ing hero? Then again people thought Zimmerman was a hero for getting his ass kicked and shooting a kid after the fact.

How about playing Saladino 2B and Anderson SS with Lawrie DHing?

The sox just need to score runs, hold leads and play winning ball, you know like in April?

I can't wait for this to be honest. It should make for good TV if Trump keeps up his usual shenanigans.

Between Alexei and Stryker... my god it's like these two are the biggest... woo sa woo sa

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jun 9, 2016 -> 03:08 PM) Sanders attitude right now seems fine to me. He's all but ended his campaign, just carrying through the next and final primary on Tuesday, and has clearly said that preventing Trump from becoming President is his number one priority and that he'll work with Clinton to do so. He'll endorse Clinton openly in due time, he'll speak at the convention, and he'll rally his supporters to GOTV for Clinton to keep Trump out of the WH. The tone of his campaign the past month or so was off-putting, but I'm confident that's come to an end and he'll be another asset come November. What makes you think that? Sanders owes nothing to the Democratic party.

The cycle of trying to using old ass veterans continues. The Sox don't have a single LHB we can call up?

Damn lol I didn't realize it was a reference to the score.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jun 9, 2016 -> 03:04 PM) doesn't he hate us I can think of million reasons why he doesn't.

Oh joy, this is going to be a fun 5 months.

I'm slow, I don't get it.

I approve of this thread.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 9, 2016 -> 02:12 AM) I would like an honest answer from you folks. My question, "Was Bernie treated fairly this primary season? Or was he robbed?" My answer to you is he was robbed. CNN declared Hillary the winner before the California primary which is bulls*** considering it cost him California. Why go vote if it's been decided? Also, he's not a fricking socialist, he's a Democratic socialist. We already have socialist aspects to society. He just wants more: free college education, free health care, etc. He is not the lunatic fringe nut the media portrayed him to be. And finally, he was robbed because of the Democrat's ridiculous superdelegate system. All the people Hillary has catered to rewarded her with their support. Of all the great women out there I can't believe she gets the honor of being first female president. My gosh, if the government was more aggressive, the woman LIKELY would be in prison for what she did compared to others who have breached security in government positions. I don't blame Bernie for not quitting. Be Hillary's pest.

If I was a manager and exceptionally bad at my job, I would have been s*** canned. The luxury of professional sports is great.

QUOTE (Baron @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 09:18 PM) The owner wont though. Honestly I hate tanking in any sport. I think there should be punishments/countermeasures for what some of these teams try to do. The lottery system for picks is somewhat a decent way to do it.

Well guys hahahhahahaa

When it rains it pours.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 05:11 PM) True. But to me I still want it to mean something to me. Even though in the actual voting only Clinton has a chance in Illinois. That's completely understandable.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 05:02 PM) I keep thinking the same thing. however, let's be honest we know it's either Trump or Clinton. Voting any other way is as good as not voting. So I'm really trying hard to find the lesser of the evils. Here's the thing. Not living in a swing state allows you to be loose as hell with your vote to some extent.

QUOTE (Tex @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 04:39 PM) That is the inconsistency I am trying to explain, but not very well. A person is charged with DUI. We agree they are responsible for their actions. Now do we also believe that they are too drunk to consent to having sex and if someone has sex with them the other person would be charged with rape? If they are both drunk, that's a slippery slope. The problem with most of these cases it seems is proof. How do you prove rape?

QUOTE (Tex @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 04:28 PM) I like the under in the Brazil game. I also think Brazil will have a challenge to cover. I'm thinking a 2-1 or 2-0 game. Brazil has to find a way to get some better shots. They just don't seem as near dominate as they were in the past.
