Jose Abreu

I know I was the one who pointed it out, but it was an honest mistake. No need to take it any farther.

You have your Guthrie's mixed up- this one's Jeremy, not Mark. And damn, Infante's contract is so ugly.

5-5.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Nov 4, 2015 -> 08:40 PM) And, hitting 8th for your 2016 Chicago White Sox, from the University of Georgia, starting shortstop Gordon Beckham. Cue tired out walk-up music and Hawk adulation. Perhaps the worst part of that was "hitting 8th"

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Nov 4, 2015 -> 07:34 PM) Yeah, it seems like that's how it usually works out when teams try to solve their problems by signing them. Mark Teahen

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Nov 4, 2015 -> 08:17 PM) Holy f***. BEST NEWS EVER! Dude is likely to be a 1 WAR player next year. Chicago has plenty of middle infield options that will cost nothing that can put up 1 WAR. Time to see if Saladino or Sanchez can cut it there. Hate to burst your bubble, but this doesn't mean he won't be returning, and it's actually likely that he does return.

QUOTE (klaus kinski @ Nov 4, 2015 -> 04:54 PM) If he didn't play us, imagine how awful his numbers would be. People say this somewhat jokingly, but he has 82 RBIs against us. The team he has the 2nd most RBIs against? The Royals- 25 RBIs.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Nov 4, 2015 -> 05:18 PM) He hasn't been good since the 2011-2012 season. While a lot of that is injury related we haven't seen a good Derrick Rose for 3 1/2 years. I'll believe he can actually be good again when I see it. To be fair, we hold him to a higher standard due to his MVP year. His 2014-2015 season was certainly good.

The new COD comes out soon. Anyone getting it? I probably won't- I haven't been a fan since Black Ops 2.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Nov 3, 2015 -> 11:43 PM) 1. I don't know why I'm going down this road 2. I don't even know why I'm in PHT to begin with, but.... You want a power bullpen and your first move is moving Danks to the pen? Just curious- given that you're a longtime member who has many posts (so therefore has been active), why don't you ever go in PHT?

Went to San Juan in 2010. It was nice, but there wasn't any restaurant or sightseeing opportunity I'd recommend. I basically just stayed by the beach/pool the whole time.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Nov 4, 2015 -> 01:36 PM) Bill Simmons had an idea on twitter: Joakim Noah to the Celtics for Avery Bradley and Tyler Zeller. I'd make that deal. Same, but the reason for trading Noah is to free our lineup of so many bigs. I don't think we'd need/want Zeller in that deal.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Nov 4, 2015 -> 10:58 AM) After the game, Noah said this, which made me think he wasn't upset with Portis, but maybe he wasn't aware of what happened? I also haven't read anything anywhere on this, where are you getting this? I saw the link to the video of Portis yelling on the Bulls Realgm forum, where people were saying that he upset the team in doing so. Perhaps that isn't what he was saying? Was anyone able to watch the video I linked a couple of posts ago? I haven't had time to yet.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 4, 2015 -> 10:37 AM) Never made it yesterday as my tee time got moved up. Ill go over there today before lunch. Alright, thanks. Appreciate it

QUOTE (59th street @ Nov 4, 2015 -> 01:43 PM) I thought there was a rule that prohibited a team from re-signing their own free agent until after the next regular season was underway? Does anyone KNOW if that rule is still in effect??; or am I having a Roger Clemens monent and "mis-remembering". Not still in effect. We can sign him

He was much better from July 1-end of the year than he was before then. He hit better and IIRC, he was the best defensive SS in baseball in July. He still has value and he'll likely be back. Hard to believe he has been on our team for 8 years.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 3, 2015 -> 09:26 AM) Ill run by Gunzos today as I wanted to pick up a sweatshirt anyway, ill let you know. Did you see it being sold there?

Yikes. Weeks of hearing about how great of a guy he was and how he's so respected, and you find he's a criminal. I feel very bad for his family.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Nov 4, 2015 -> 10:18 AM) Herrera was better than everyone in the draft combined. Oh s***, that's the Herrera from Philly? I thought his name was Odubel, not David.

Apparently, in between 26:30 and 26:46 in this video, Bobby Portis shouted "PLAY ME!" multiple times, which isn't sitting well with his teammates.

QUOTE (bmags @ Nov 4, 2015 -> 10:00 AM) I think we've all watched enough sports to know not to extrapolate first month results over the whole year, and enough blackhawks to not give up on them after 1 month. If they are 5+ points behind with a month to go I'll begin to be slightly worried. Agreed. We're also playing without one of the best defensemen in hockey.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 4, 2015 -> 09:04 AM) Two years ago they picked 3rd. Also worth noting is the list of players taken after DeShields. 4. Houston Astros: RHP Jason Garcia, Red Sox 5. Minnesota Twins: RHP J.R. Graham, Braves 6. Boston Red Sox: RHP Jandel Gustave, Astros 7. Chicago Cubs: SS Taylor Featherston, Rockies 8. Philadelphia Phillies: IF David Herrera, Rangers 9. Miami Marlins: LHP Andrew McKirahan, Cubs 10. New York Mets: LHP Sean Gilmartin, Twins 11. Atlanta Braves: RHP Daniel Winkler, Rockies 12. Seattle Mariners: LHP David Rollins, Astros 13. Baltimore Orioles: RHP Logan Verrett, Mets Good point. The only players there I've even heard of are Featherston and Graham.

Bulls need to get their defense together if they want a chance vs OKC tomorrow. 130 points to the lowly Hornets in unacceptable. Thibs is probably sitting at home laughing at us.

I hope this happened a while ago, as the news on Eaton came out a month ago.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Nov 3, 2015 -> 01:00 PM) I don't really think number of games is a good standard for measuring HR frequency. When the discrepancy is that large, it doesn't matter.
