Julie DiCaro is back!!

What a fucking joke of a ballot. Pathetic.

Darvish is 34 years old, has injury concerns, and is in the hook for 3 more years. He also hasn't been consistently great by any means. I'm not sure why people expected the moon for him. It wasn't that long ago people were talking about how bad of a signing that was.

Lol, sure. You hear the MLB GMs? South Side Hit Men from soxtalk.com has spoken. Anybody who signs Bauer will regret it, guaranteed. He knows Bauer better than anybody.

Nobody, maybe in the history of Soxtalk, is less of a dick then you are. Nobody!

Good luck, Trev. You ain't getting that much.

Lol, remember that one time you argued the point below?

Bradley Braves represent!

Agreed. It's ridiculous that people act like they know who did and didn't do steroids. Many of the "clean" guys may have been roiding their asses off, and we just didn't know.

lmao, Tony laying the smackdown. iwin4prep, this is just sad.

It's crazy how much better of a mod I would be than Tony. Sign me up, bmags.

These pitchers are clearly more injury prone than others. Snell literally doesn't pitch more than 5 innings. Quit being a bonehead.

The Dustin Fowler lawsuit would have gone much more smoothly, that's for sure.

These trades look great for the Padres on paper, but the pitchers they have been acquiring have bigtime injury concerns. Darvish, Snell, Clevinger (obviously). I appreciate the effort, but this can easily blow up in their faces.

To be fair, defense is much more difficult in the modern NBA. Teams have 3-4 guys who can drain 3 pointers on the court at any given time. There's just so much more ground to cover with the spacing today.

I'm sick of half the games being blowouts and over by halftime. They need to do something about 3 pointers, whether it be allowing handchecking again or moving the line back.

I don't mean those guys for Holiday. I meant those packages are better than Holiday, and I would gladly trade them for what Milwaukee traded. The Pelicans got Bledsoe, George Hill and Bucks’ first round picks in 2020, 2025, and 2027, along with the rights to swap picks in 2024 and 2026. That is a haul.

I'd hope so. It seems like Michael Reinsdorf will be more open to that than his father. They need to acquire as much talent possible right now, draft well, and sell some superstars on the idea of playing for the Bulls and in Chicago. The Chicago Bulls should definitely be a destination for stars. It is crazy that it hasn't been.

I don't often do this (because I'm not usually wrong), but @Look at Ray Ray Run was completely correct about WCJ being trash and Sexton being a much better pick. WCJ can't even play defense now. The paint is free cheese for defenders.

Carter has regressed, somehow. He is bad at everything now apparently. The sad part is barely anybody on the team has value. Zach is the only one that can get you a decent 1st rounder. Guys like Thad Young or Otto may net you a late 1st from a contender. I can't believe what the Bucks traded for Jrue Holiday. I feel like Zach + Sato or even Zach + Lauri is a better trade for the Bucks, and similar salary. I would make either trades in a heartbeat.

So... Are any of you in favor of trying to trade Zach? What would it take for you to trade him?

Maybe the website subscribes to the Jack Parkman school of pessimism. Yoan Moncada won't be the same until 2023 - if we even have the MLB back by then.

I'm pretty sure these are just bonus amounts, and they get some standard minor league contract. Could be wrong though.
