Jose Abreu

The shot differential was crazy for the Hawks last night.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jan 29, 2016 -> 06:50 AM) Levine mentioned a soxfest surprise with him. Sounds like it'll be him retiring thought not anything to do with the active roster. Well, this didn't happen. Why did we trust Levine?

Rose getting no calls, nothing new

We were 2 under .500 in July 2015 and did absolutely nothing. So, my guess is absolutely nothing.

Cavs took care of the Spurs pretty easily

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 30, 2016 -> 10:48 AM) Dan Hayes ‏@CSNHayes 27m27 minutes ago Adam Eaton said shoulder has rebounded nicely after surgery. Just needs maintenance to regain lost muscle mass. http://bit.ly/20zEd0i Goodbye, 14 HR Adam Eaton?

Think she meant implies, but whatever

Cat Garcia ‏@TheBaseballGirl Hahn infers he has been working on a deal today.

He's in the best shape of his life!!! Part 2

If you boo your own team, you're not a true fan of said team. The only time this is debatable is if someone on your team has done something bad, rape/murder etc.

QUOTE (SoCalSox @ Jan 29, 2016 -> 03:59 PM) Going from 2-2.5 WAR a season over negative war is a minor improvement? You're assuming that Fowler will produce that WAR in RF and Garcia will not improve at all. I do think that Garcia will improve, albeit not by much.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jan 29, 2016 -> 11:53 AM) http://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nflvideos/...herd/vp-BBoam1M Pretty good interview from Boozer on Rose as a teammate. Always thought highly of Boozer as a teammate. Interesting, thanks for posting

QUOTE (SoCalSox @ Jan 29, 2016 -> 03:56 PM) It's another sizable improvement that would be gone, so yes, it would hurt them. Well, that's where we disagree. For the potential price, the minor improvement likely won't be worth it.

QUOTE (SoCalSox @ Jan 29, 2016 -> 03:50 PM) Julie DiCaro seems to think that Fowler is staying with the Cubs, which also echoes a few other things that have been put out lately. Would really hurt the Sox if they miss on another FA. Losing out on Fowler wouldn't hurt the Sox.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Jan 29, 2016 -> 11:15 AM) 1.) Donaldson 2.) Machado 3.) Bryant 4.) Arenado 5.) Beltre 6.) Carpenter 7.) Kang 8.) Seager 9.) Frazier 10.) Turner Almost in complete agreement. Mine: 1.) Donaldson 2.) Machado 3.) Arenado 4.) Bryant 5.) Beltre 6.) Kang 7.) Seager 8.) Frazier 9.) Carpenter 10.) Turner Just not as high on Carpenter or Bryant. Plus, high on Arenado.

I don't know who I'd want to trade from our bullpen. Maybe they'd take Putnam? OT- I am a little worried about Robertson. He blew far too many saves last year

Given that he's a LF/CF, Melky would have to shift to RF. Or Eaton, I guess

QUOTE (Dunt @ Jan 29, 2016 -> 08:32 AM) Dont insult Chris Sale like that. He should be opening day starter for the rest of his career. Uh... you might want to reread his post

If we sign Buehrle, I would hope that it would be as our #5 starter, moving one of Danks/Johnson to the bullpen.

Perhaps a one year contract to retire with the team

QUOTE (knightni @ Jan 28, 2016 -> 02:49 PM) Jihad? Who names their child "Jihad?" I thought it was a typo

Round 2? I thought this is our 3rd time signing him

I don't dislike them, but I also don't understand why people like them so much.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jan 28, 2016 -> 09:40 AM) Phil Jackson rode Jordan and Pippen harder than Thibs ever ran anyone. Check out Tim Duncan's minutes early in his career. No need to wait. Gar/Pax rules. The reason the team doesn't win championships is because of the coaches THEY HIRE. That is clearly not their fault. I agree with everything you said, but I disagree with you thinking that Mirotic's appendicitis is due to this... appendicitis is not an injury sustained via physical activity like a torn ACL or a sore hamstring

QUOTE (shipps @ Jan 28, 2016 -> 09:20 AM) How many more years is Sale signed through again? Signed thru 2017 with 2018 and 2019 team options that will be exercised. 2019
