Jose Abreu

4 points for Panarin and 2 for Kane... Kane has 96 points, meaning he has 4 games to collect 4 points if he wants to get to 100.

Love how the entire GSW team just left the court immediately after the game without shaking hands

For what it's worth (which is nothing), I've played this game 3 times in MLB 16 The Show, and for some reason, in every single one of them, Brett Lawrie went either 3-4 or 4-4.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Apr 1, 2016 -> 06:22 PM) You know, I was thinking Jose Abreu was a good poster. Then I saw this thread and now I hate him.

The game is Monday, April 4th at 9:05 PM CT in Oakland, where the forecast for first pitch is 57 degrees with a 0% chance of rain and 5 MPH NE winds. Chris Sale makes his 3rd career Opening Day start for Chicago (missed last year's due to injury) despite earlier April Fools' reports stating that he has elbow soreness. Sale is 2-0 with a 1.80 ERA in his Opening Day starts. Worth noting: Oakland's Billy Butler is 15-41 (.366) with 3 HR and 10 RBI against Sale; Oakland's Jed Lowrie is 5-13 (.385) against Sale. Sonny Gray makes his 3rd career Opening Day start for Oakland. He is 1-0 with a 0.00 ERA in his two Opening Day starts. He finished 3rd in Cy Young voting in 2015. Worth noting- Jose Abreu is 2-6 (.333) with 1 HR and 4 RBI against Gray. EDIT: Gray scratched with food poisoning. Rich Hill starting. White Sox: Eaton Rollins Abreu Frazier Cabrera Garcia Lawrie Navarro Jackson Oakland: Burns Lowrie Reddick Valencia Davis Butler Canha Vogt Semien

Cabrera

Eaton

But no, actually Jose Abreu.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Apr 1, 2016 -> 01:20 PM) Actually, he is scratched. Sale traded. http://www.chicagonow.com/soxnet/2016/04/b...baez-in-return/ Well, according to every Cubs fan ever, he's "bound for TJ surgery any day", so by their standards, that's a huge overpay!

So we're carrying 6 outfielders in Cabrera, Jackson, Eaton, Garcia, Shuck, and Sands when most teams carry 4...

QUOTE (spiderman @ Apr 1, 2016 -> 11:25 AM) If they do land him, is he a starter or does he go to the bullpen? AAA

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 1, 2016 -> 11:22 AM) Who's the equivalent to Peyton Manning in baseball? Well, with the HGH stuff going around and his age... Alex Rodriguez.

By the way, April Fools! Sorry, I had to continue the tradition of April 1st Sale fake-injury threads, and didn't want to pick something too obviously fake.

Deonte Thompson was a pretty good KR but Bolden signing is nice. Thompson may move to punts.

Ted Larsen is horrible and better not start like reports are indicating, but I like the Manny Ramirez signing.

My guess is Loney. It makes too much sense.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Mar 30, 2016 -> 12:37 AM) I usually always get The Show the day it comes out but decided to wait it out this year. I hardly played the game last year and not sure if it is even much different from previous years. How is the RTTS this year? I think I will wait for the OS rosters Haven't played RTTS yet, but it is different from previous years in improved commentary and a completely revamped defensive system. Fielding is now much more realistic and less choppy/animation-y.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Mar 30, 2016 -> 12:27 AM) Is Sounds of the Show shareable? I'm guessing not due to copyright? No, it's not, but it was pretty quick for me. I just downloaded MP3s of walkup music, Thunderstruck, etc. in about 10 minutes, and then applied them to the Sox and Sox players in another 15.

PS- I suck at hitting with Todd Frazier.

I put in all the authentic Sox walkup music along with regular ballpark songs (such as Thunderstruck) and it's pretty cool. Nice to have Sounds of The Show back.

QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 29, 2016 -> 06:46 PM) Doubront is the A's 5th starter over Jesse Hahn. Kind of a dumb move

The main reason I prefer Saladino to Rollins is defense. Not that Rollins is bad defensively, but Saladino is just elite in that regard
