Padres Sign Alexei Ramirez
QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ Jan 14, 2016 -> 02:38 PM) Anderson will either be traded at the deadline or playing in Chicago this season. Well... in September.

Dexter Fowler as a secondary option
QUOTE (fathom @ Jan 14, 2016 -> 02:23 PM) One thing with Fowler is that if Sox do sign him, be prepared to see him complain to the ump whenever he gets called out looking. Followed by his wife tweeting about how bad the call was

Jason Benetti, new Sox home PxP
QUOTE (AustinIllini @ Jan 14, 2016 -> 09:39 AM) Great interview. Really looking forward to this addition. Also glad to see advanced metrics might make it to the broadcast. No one tell Hawk!

Dexter Fowler as a secondary option
QUOTE (raBBit @ Jan 14, 2016 -> 02:19 PM) Who cares how often he strikes out? Every time he strikes out that's at least three pitches he's seen. Better than Avi grounding out 6-3 on a breaking ball on 0-1. Fowlers allure is how often he gets on base. He's patient and works pitchers. Fowler has finished in the top 20 of the MLB in pitches per plate appearance in back to back seasons. Strange how people use that when it comes to Fowler, but if it's LaRoche/Dunn/anyone else striking out often, there is no positive.

Dexter Fowler as a secondary option
QO aside, the last thing we need is another strikeout-prone, poor defensive player.

Cespedes Re-signs with the Mets
QUOTE (bmags @ Jan 14, 2016 -> 09:10 AM) So just to be clear, The braves just traded Shelby Miller for Inciarte, Dansby Swanson and 3 other prospects, and we would then trade Q for just Inciarte. Seems like good market rate addition. Still can't get over how much of a steal that was for Atlanta.

STAR WARS Everything
To be honest, after re-watching all 6 a couple weeks ago, Episode III may be my favorite. *prepares for tomatoes to the face*

Cespedes Re-signs with the Mets
QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Jan 13, 2016 -> 07:16 PM) Our rotation is already suspect, who are you replacing Q with? Yeah, the best rotation (fWAR) in the AL sucks!!!

Cespedes Re-signs with the Mets
QUOTE (Baron @ Jan 13, 2016 -> 06:21 PM) Rodon no...Q very possible. We've traded away enough assets this winter. It's time to hit the FA market.

Jason Benetti, new Sox home PxP
Dan Hayes @CSNHayes 51s52 seconds ago Jason Benetti does use advance metrics. Feels its his job to educate viewers on what they mean. Will weave them into #WhiteSox broadcasts.

2015-2016 NBA Thread
QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jan 13, 2016 -> 01:38 PM) Why are Bulls fans stressing? It's not like this team has a chance to win anything. LeBron has found his jumper, Kyrie is healthy, and the Cavs will win the east by at least 10 games. Who cares. Why even watch sports then if your team isn't #1 in the conference/league?

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jan 13, 2016 -> 12:32 PM) Bye bye Johnny Football. I can't wait to see him fail in Dallas under Jerry Jones. RG III/Manziel QB duo... yikes.

Jason Benetti, new Sox home PxP
I see, in many of these links, "he will continue doing ESPN games". Which ESPN games does he broadcast? I had never heard of him prior to today.

Sox interested in Carlos Gonzalez
Gonzalez staying in Colorado was a big reason that Parra signed there. It will likely be Blackmon, or perhaps Dickerson, who is traded.

Hawk and Stone get multi-year extensions
QUOTE (scs787 @ Jan 13, 2016 -> 10:47 AM) You'd think Hawk would rather do home games and cut out the travel. Wonder what 3 home games Hawk will be doing. Cubs? Or maybe the series where Stone takes off for Yom Kippur? The 3 home games he's doing are the Cubs games. He actually has a harder travel schedule for home games rather than away games. Pretty sure he has to commute to and from Indiana for every game. I remember someone on here saying it's 2-3 hours each way.

2015-16 NHL thread
QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jan 12, 2016 -> 10:09 PM) Love me some TT, and meshed pretty well with Kane and Panarin tonight. Nothing will ever compare to Panarin/Anisimov/Kane though... chemistry there is unreal

Jason Benetti, new Sox home PxP
QUOTE (2005thxfrthmmrs @ Jan 13, 2016 -> 08:41 AM) Yep, was probably banned because his obsession with Andy Wilkins was getting a little unhealthy. Then I think he's back with a different username, because there's a guy on the FutureSox Board with ~25 posts, all about Andy Wilkins

WI bans certain chants at HS sports events
I wish they banned that god-awful DE-DE-DE-DEFENSE chant.

2015-16 NHL thread
QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 12, 2016 -> 03:54 PM) The Winter Classic in Boston was played at the football stadium. So they counted the larger attendance but didn't adjust the capacity, same with Boston's home attendance. I feel like there must have been a better way to do that- a way that didn't skew the rest of the stats.

Fangraphs projects CWS at 81-81, 4GB in ALC
QUOTE (spiderman @ Jan 12, 2016 -> 11:11 AM) The records of teams in these predictions, even teams they are predicting to win the division, are always awful. Does anyone really think all 5 teams will be separated by 7 games in the standings? This.
