QUOTE (scs787 @ Apr 15, 2016 -> 09:17 AM) Thon Maker cleared for the NBA draft out of HS. If you don't know who he is, YouTube him, he looks fantastic. Where do you think a guy like him will go? I would love replacing Pau and Noah with this guy. Probably no chance unless they get lucky in the lottery right? Woj said he has really regressed and will most likely be drafted in the 2nd round and spend at least a couple years in the D League.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Apr 15, 2016 -> 07:12 AM) Let's go! It's very comforting knowing that the WORST record the Sox could have at the end of this roadtrip is 7-5. I'll be pissed as s*** if we get swept by the Rays while starting Sale and Q and missing Archer. Take 2 out of 3.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 14, 2016 -> 10:46 PM) Nice to see Eaton and Melky hitting well. I can handle this type of Melky, the one with absolutely no power if he keeps finding holes. Team won't stay this hot, but it seems like a professional unit so far and we're playing the same game other teams are playing. MLB, not the bizarre brand of ball of the last 2 years or so under Robin. To those who were in spring training ... is this just a coincidence or did we look much better in ST this year in terms of effort, drills, etc? I realize the Sox hit great in ST this year and the hitting has been just so/so. I'm talking fundamentals and looking like a real team. Was it a better spring or is the spring totally inconsequential comparing this year's start to last year's? QUOTE (LDF @ Apr 14, 2016 -> 10:58 PM) ref to your first paragraph, when some key players will start to cool down, the others on the team will pick it up, this, as you said is a professional team and the players will find their niche. second, except for sale and q, i was a little skeptical. i will admit it, i was feeling confidence in the group. even rodon i was concern. but it seem, at least for me, when the season started, a light switch was turned on. Exactly what LDF said in the 1st paragraph, were not exactly hot. Our pitching is, don't get me wrong, but our offense is below league average right now. I'm sure both we'll balance out and hopefully we continue to win more games.

Any link available to watch the game online for free?

QUOTE (beautox @ Apr 14, 2016 -> 11:19 AM) A right handed Brett Gardner in a dream scenario. With better defense.

Just sweep them

QUOTE (LDF @ Apr 14, 2016 -> 08:41 AM) ref fulmer, well, it will take a little bit longer than anticipated. that is why i never believe in the hype surrounding prospects. Coming from the guy that loves draft picks and prospects.

Going back to Pax talking last night. What a sleeze of an organization talking about the season after beating the 76ers on the last day of the year, Cubs, Sox, Hawks, Warriors, and Kobe all playing. Saying it's unacceptable how this season went, but we had so many injuries. Bulls are SO lucky the draft is here in 2 weeks, Sox and Cubs have gotten off to good starts, and the Hawks are in the playoffs.

Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal 13m13 minutes ago #Phillies’ Stump tested positive for dehydrochlormethyltestosterone, according to MLB. Say that 3 times fast lmao

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 14, 2016 -> 09:04 AM) I totally forgot the Rams were in LA now. I wonder if that gave them more incentive to make a splashy move. Well, if the NFL decides to have the draft in LA next year, Rams won't have any picks lol.

Sounds like the Rams really like Carson Wentz

Soooooo, the Red Sox might release Pablo Sandoval if they can't find a trade partner

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 13, 2016 -> 10:09 PM) I have a feeling we are going to win/lose a lot of these types of games. I love out pitching (mostly) but the hitting is scarce so far We stay in it, guaranteed we go after a big bat.

Oakman is going undrafted now. Arrested on sexual assault charges.

Good riddance Gar

Sands hitting a dinger today.

Apparently Texas A&M QB Trevor Knight (grad student, 22) is dating Duck Dynasty star Sadie Robertson (graduating HS in May, 18). Willie Robertson defended LaRoche about family first and now his daughter is dating a dude basically out of college. Probably nothing, it's just I find it really weird.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Apr 12, 2016 -> 09:47 AM) Call Loney's agent and let him know he can have a major league role here? He signed a minor league deal with the Padres. Figure he'll get called up soon for them.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 12, 2016 -> 09:26 AM) Eh, I would hardly call adding someone to the 40 man roster, "hype". Why add a guy to a valuable 40 man roster spot if they don't think he has talent/potential? Granted Turner had no options, but if he did, I'd have him on the 40 man rather than Brennan.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 12, 2016 -> 09:17 AM) Brennan didn't even receive a top 30 prospect vote. I would say that pretty qualifies him as not a prospect. The Sox see him as one by sending him to the AFL and adding him on the 40 man.

Still don't get the Brennan hype. Dude is not good and barely a prospect in my eyes.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Apr 11, 2016 -> 01:53 PM) Shane running raw again tonight, pretty hilarious given the story for mania but oh well. We'll see what they make official tonight but the Payback card is looking pretty damn strong. I will be going to payback

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 11, 2016 -> 12:41 PM) Panik? No Weise/Teuvo/Fleisch line? Panik has outplayed Weise lately. And Ladd is fine, going to practice tomorrow.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 11, 2016 -> 12:33 PM) The MN lineup isn't that bad. Really 6-8 are the weaknesses. Eduardo Escobar had a really good year last year. No slouch. Rosario is solid too.
