Like I said Boston needs to stop throwing to 3rd baseball. Cost them 2 games in this series

QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 26, 2013 -> 11:17 PM) I think Farrell didn't have a lot of relievers left in the bullpen, so he wanted to stick with Workman as long as possible. He ended up taking him out a batter later. It was dumb. Dempster was still out there who can give you 5+ innings if possible.. That really shows how AL and NL are so different and it takes different managing

QUOTE (zenryan @ Oct 26, 2013 -> 11:11 PM) I like how the closer will get the loss now. wait, Workman gets credited for the loss? Yes, he is the one that let the first runner on. Ferrell clearly lost this game for Boston. He didn't pinch hit for him in the 9th when he had Napoli on the bench and then kept him in for the 9th. And not walking Jay.

QUOTE (MAX @ Oct 26, 2013 -> 11:09 PM) It was two feet off the line is what gets me. It could have been easily avoided. But when you make a call like that, you do it in a moment. That is what I don't get. It was two feet inside the line. Isn't that the fielders territory if a runner is running home?? I feel like Craig ran into him. But that is just me and I live in St. Louis and don't like the Cardinals so I could have tunnel vision. I still don't think you call that to end a damn World Series game

And I don't understand why Ferrell didn't pinch hit for Workman in the 9th inning?? He ended up taking him out anyways and it cost them the game.

Maybe the Red Sox should stop throwing to third base in this series. What a bunch of idiots

I can't believe I forgot about Marte and Vizcaino. I knew there was another lefty in the pen and I just couldn't get the name. I was in 7th grade when we won so give me a break lol

I would rather not trade Quintana unless we are getting a proven player with a good track record at 3rd, Catcher, CF, or LF and a good hitting prospect

I still think Conor could be pretty good. I just think he needs more time.

This is a 20 team league with 25 milb rounds so there will be 500 guys picked. I know there are a few pitchers in the Sox organization curious who exactly those are. We are in the 13th round and players taken have been: Marcus Semien Micah Johnson Erik Johnson Tim Anderson Courtney Hawkins Keon Barnum

QUOTE (scs787 @ Oct 19, 2013 -> 11:07 PM) Jake Peavy says hi too. Yeah I know. I said it because they were showing Thornton and his kid for like 10 seconds

Well at least Thornton is kind of a part of the team?

Who are some sleeper prospects both for the Sox and other teams to look for this coming year?? I am in a Dynasty league and we are in the middle of the 25 round MILB draft and I am running out of people with 13 rounds left!

I can't wait to see JOSE ABREU hit this year. This thread is no longer about him lol

QUOTE (bbilek1 @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 10:44 PM) or even where does Abreu hit? 3? 4? 5? As we sit now you have to think our 3-4-5 is some variation of Abreu, Dunn and Garcia. You would think it would be left-right-left. So probably Abreu, Garcia, Dunn if Abreu shows he can hit. I would start him at the highest 5th in the line up to begin with

QUOTE (Dunt @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 10:14 PM) Rick Hahn is on fire. He has my full support in any move going forward. Love an offense anchored by Abreu and Garcia going forward! I think we are only one or two more hitters away from being a playoff contender! And maybe a couple pitchers

He better pass that damn physical!!! :headbang

Does anyone have a quote from Ken about the signing?

QUOTE (bbilek1 @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 09:26 PM) Yeah, but he's a first baseman. Yeah I know, I was hoping he had some of that Cuban speed! lol.

QUOTE (bbilek1 @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 09:23 PM) He is a hitter. Weak-average fielder and not athletic. Puig and Cespedes have the tools but Abreu had more offense in Cuba than both of them. So basically he is just a pure hitter? No speed?

So is Abreu projected to be better then Cespedes/Puig?? Or just in hitting?

This better be finalized tonight! I am in the middle of a minor league draft in a dynasty league and it is almost my pick!! I want to draft him. And also this would be huge for the White Sox if this guy pans out and I feel like this will help Viciedo maybe too!

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 11, 2013 -> 08:22 PM) They post it on the Jumbotron! St. Louis people really love that "title"

It also doesn't help when the PA announcer at Busch Stadium refers to the Cardinals having the best fans in baseball at least twice every game I have been too. I have been to my fair share of White Sox games and I don't hear our announcer saying that before the game.

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Oct 11, 2013 -> 03:26 PM) How many Cardinal fans have you actually heard say that? I live in St. Louis and I will say a lot of people say this.
