Jose Abreu

QUOTE (scs787 @ Jan 6, 2016 -> 03:48 PM) Here's a fun fact.... JJ Watt had a sack every 54.17 play. Lamarr Houston had one every 54.14. Houston just got credit for a sack from Sunday, giving him a season total of 8. That may bolster that stat.

QUOTE (shoeless_joe21 @ Jan 6, 2016 -> 05:31 PM) He meant running from LaRoche. +1

It's Merkin. He's been wrong about almost everything this offseason.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 6, 2016 -> 02:06 PM) I dont believe this because it doesnt begin with "Source:..." raBBit, what are you hearing? Don't worry, his source was NickyMitch93. Much better than raBBit, for sure.

QUOTE (Markbilliards @ Jan 6, 2016 -> 01:59 PM) Rumors swirling that Gordon ultimately chose to resign with KC instead of Chicago because the Cespedes thread on Soxtalk had more pages than the Gordon thread. Good. Our plan worked guys.

As long as Abreu doesn't bat second anymore, I'm good

*waits for someone to call one of these pitchers a "low risk, high reward" guy*

QUOTE (Baron @ Jan 6, 2016 -> 10:57 AM) Wasnt this the guy who said Cespedes signed a week ago? Yes.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Jan 6, 2016 -> 10:25 AM) Why? It isn't a win now year. If anything, the sox get Danks and LaRoche off the books next year so they will have more salary room. This could be the building year for following year. It could be a win now year but it doesn't need to be if the price becomes outrageous. I don't think we would have made the Frazier deal if we didn't plan on competing this year. Plus, the FO really doesn't want to continue wasting prime years of Sale/Quintana/Abreu.

Write Sox ‏@WriteSox 56m56 minutes ago Don’t know why everyone’s worried. Twitter said a few weeks ago Cespedes had already signed that 6-year $126 million deal with the Sox. shoutout NickyMitch93

Nevermind, I see it's coming out in a few months.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jan 5, 2016 -> 04:34 PM) So twitter really is allowing longer tweets. They are? I don't see it

QUOTE (blackmooncreeping @ Jan 6, 2016 -> 10:09 AM) Smart move to not go over 3 years on Gordon due to his relatively advanced age. Cespedes and Upton are obviously different stories and so you offer more years. I agree with you, but the original report was that we were only offering 3 years to both Gordon and Cespedes.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jan 6, 2016 -> 09:50 AM) @Ken_Rosenthal Sources: #WhiteSox would not go 4 years on Gordon, as @BNightengale said. Will they adjust on Cespedes? Gordon 32 this season, Cespedes 30. So we weren't posturing. If we offer Cespedes 3 years then he won't accept. The FO has to know that.

Seeing lots of "now that Gordon signed, we're gonna hear White Sox/Cespedes rumors today" type posts... while I hope that's true, we can never be sure.

I love Young as a player but he's probably gone.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jan 5, 2016 -> 09:43 PM) Rose played well tonight, but his jump shot is a disaster. Short on everything, he does use his legs, but he's got a hitch at the top of his shot which results in no arc in his shot. His shots are disgustingly flat. His drives tonight were incredible, though.

I don't trust this KC guy. He bet his reputation that Gordon would be a Royal by Christmas... so I guess he doesn't have a reputation.

Why do you all like Derek Wolfe so much?

Bulls win 117-106, Butler 32/10 assists

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jan 5, 2016 -> 09:12 PM) It helps the Hawks are amazing at it. Yup, if we didn't have Toews/Kane/Panarin/Teravainen and other skill players who exceed in open-ice situations, we wouldn't like it as much

QUOTE (buhbuhburrrrlz @ Jan 5, 2016 -> 08:12 PM) K.C. Johnson ‏@KCJHoop 9m9 minutes ago Butler has 60 points in his last 4 quarters. on 22/30 shooting!

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jan 5, 2016 -> 05:46 PM) Looks like my fake source was wrong, but as you know, things are very fluid and change so the fake info may have been correct at the time. Thanks, NickyMitch93. What have you heard on Doug Fister?

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jan 5, 2016 -> 01:29 PM) I hope his return doesn't affect Butler's play. I worry Rose is going to take 20-25 shots tonight to try to reestablish himself as the go-to guy. If he plays like he was the three games before the injury, he can take as many shots as he wants

We've literally heard no news on any of the outfielders lately. I don't know how much longer this board (and I) can handle it!
