Jose Abreu

Oh, I must've missed last year's version, as I was under the impression that this hasn't happened since ~2014

Men, relax.

Indescribable

Enraged, I am

Ubiquitous, is the aura of this thread

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 9, 2017 -> 02:27 PM) Bob Nightengale‏Verified account @BNightengale 47m47 minutes ago Giancarlo Stanton would love to be traded to the #Dodgers or #Angels but neither team has shown even the slightest of interest considering he's still owed $295 million Can you imagine if LAA had the money for that? 2. Trout 3. Stanton 4. Upton That would be something.

For sure. Especially whoever voted for silver slugger.

Am I qualified to start this up?

Something was always fishy about this account. Always tweeting about the "wife and kids"- like, way more than anyone would ever tweet about their wife and kids- as if he was trying to prove that he had them. I assumed that it was just a guy insecure about his love/family life and compensating through acting like he has a nice family. Never imagined this, though.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Nov 9, 2017 -> 02:23 PM) I'm so sick of apologies. There are some that are true, but IMO, most of the time people apologize they are sorry for getting caught. If they hadn't, they would still be doing the same thing. ^

The new gestures for app switching and whatnot are so smooth. I agree with the poster that said that the old tech would now seem archaic. Apple hit this one out of the park

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Oct 31, 2017 -> 05:07 PM) I'll rather have Machado than Arenado And I'd rather have Robert than Engel

QUOTE (bmags @ Oct 27, 2017 -> 09:33 AM) I still maintain that if Stanton is moved he gets moved for very little. Same here. He's not gonna fetch that Boston package.

I ordered at 2:07 CT and squeaked by with the earliest delivery date. Worth it (maybe).

Never been a Super Mario guy but I just bought the Switch so the GOAT game might as well warrant a purchase.

iPhone X pre-orders start at 2 AM CT

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 20, 2017 -> 10:40 AM) Think we will see a Schwarber for Betances trade this offseason I'd love for the Yankees to accept that

QUOTE (soxfan49 @ Oct 20, 2017 -> 08:46 AM) IIRC, Archer is a FA, so unless they're trading Schwarber there for his rights or something, I don't think they have to get rid of Schwarber to obtain Archer. He's under team control until 2022

QUOTE (Tony @ Oct 19, 2017 -> 11:05 PM) They have gone to 3 straight LCS, have 1 WS and the window is still wide open. They have a reason to be optimistic. They're still a force but changes have to be made. They won't win much with a rotation of Quintana/Hendricks/Lester/Montgomery/Tseng. I don't know that they'll be able to replace Arrieta/revamp the bullpen just by trading Schwarber, either, given his lack of trade value. They may need to trade someone like Happ or Russell.

QUOTE (whitesoxjr27 @ Oct 19, 2017 -> 10:24 PM) I hate to say it but I turned the TV on just to see the Dodgers celebrate on the field. ^

QUOTE (flavum @ Oct 19, 2017 -> 11:29 PM) If they did 4 team divisions, they’d have to play 27+ games each against division opponent to avoid division winners getting in under .500. I can’t be more clear about this- eight divisions of four teams wouldn’t work in baseball. They aren’t playing that many games against division opponents and they aren’t risking division winners under .500. Well put. I remember the 7-9 Seahawks made the playoffs a few years ago. Baseball can't turn into that.

QUOTE (Nokona @ Oct 19, 2017 -> 09:13 PM) Q is going to have to endure an entire offseason of mouthbreathers like Kaplan going in on him. I wonder how he'll take to it My God, Kaplan is such a moron. How he's employed/respected is beyond me. His lack of baseball knowledge is just depressing

QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ Oct 19, 2017 -> 11:35 AM) Geography. Any expansion on the west coast likely moves Colorado to a division with midwest teams. It comes down to either the Brewers or the Rockies changing leagues, and the Brewers fought like hell to get out of the AL 20 years ago, and the Rockies would naturally align with the Royals as their states share a border. Makes sense. Thanks

What's with the fascination of moving Colorado to the AL? It seems to be a common trend in these proposals. Is it because of Coors Field and the DH? Because in this realignment, the DH would probably be universal anyway.
