Toews with the GWG 17 seconds into the OT

I was very impressed by Carlos Sanchez last season. He played fantastic defense, and he hit .252 after the All-Star break after a .184 start. He's still only 23, and his hitting has always been decent in the minors, so I think he may improve. Even if he doesn't, I think his defense is good enough for him to be a starter. Other posters may not agree, though. So, where do you think Sanchez should be at the start of the 2016 season?

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Oct 24, 2015 -> 10:34 AM) Baez might be a potential fit here. I'm not particularly thrilled with his K and defensive numbers, but he sure does have some major power. Sounds like a White Sox kind of player!

f*** the Royals. A. I want us to be the last AL Central team to win the WS B. The Royals (Hosmer, Ventura, and Moustakas specifically) are all dbags and they don't deserve to win. C. I find it hard to root for a team who initiated a brawl with us this season

QUOTE (flavum @ Oct 24, 2015 -> 12:40 AM) Pretty close. Jeff Nelson didn't help you. Yup. I had Mets in 6 over Toronto, now I have Mets in 6 over Kansas City.

New offense give Rose lots of space to create, he looked good. And McDermott hit the game-winner

Lmao, you guys want Papelbon? He's literally the only player in baseball who I don't want on this team purely due to his clubhouse presence. The guy is a cancer.

Catching is such a weak position across MLB. Our catching situation shouldn't be one of our top two concerns.

MLB The Show on PS Vita is actually really fun. Wipeout 2048 was a fun game for it as well.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Oct 22, 2015 -> 10:00 PM) Anisimov was a great pickup. If Dano ends up being as good as advertised, that Saad trade doesn't look too bad.

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Oct 22, 2015 -> 09:22 PM) I don't think they'll have a great as season next year even if they add a FA or two. They'd be relying on Arrieta to have another season like this. I do think he'll have a good year next year, but what he did this season was just insane.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 22, 2015 -> 09:05 PM) Panarin is such a stud. It's like the Hawks plucked a Kane clone out of Russia. It's a shame that the Calder race is so stacked this year.

I'm currently writing an essay on John Kass' article in the Tribune today. Anyone read it? It was brief, just about how we shouldn't be gloating unless it's provoked, and the idiot Cubs fans need to watch baseball.

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Oct 22, 2015 -> 05:45 PM) Tell me why Gordon is better. I think I'd rather have Upton but I really don't know. Defense and he gets on base more.

QUOTE (GREEDY @ Oct 22, 2015 -> 05:05 PM) If Trayce Thompson plays 150 games in CF next season, where does his defense rank amongst the hypothetical 25 everyday center fielders? My guess is in the 6-12 range.

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Oct 22, 2015 -> 05:20 PM) I'd rather have Cespedes or Heyward, as I'm sure most of us would. But if it came down to Upton or Alex Gordon, who would you choose? Gordon, no doubt

This free agent class isn't good either, though. There's starting pitching, but we have the best starting pitching in the AL

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Oct 22, 2015 -> 10:47 AM) Seriously, how long does the pain last from a flu shot. f*** 2 days maximum for me. Only gets longer if I play baseball/tennis the same day or the day after.

I've seen/heard enough about Bartolo Colon in the last 24 hours. f*** that guy... literally disappeared from our team, steroid user, etc.

Bears release Ratliff

QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ Oct 22, 2015 -> 12:29 PM) UZR is nowhere near as harsh about him and I mean, I watch the guy and I dont see anything wrong. He makes the plays he's supposed to and occasionally the one's he's not. He's developed a reputation for being an airhead amongst Cubs fans but as a White Sox fan I'm an expert on airheads and the guy seems to get a bad rap. I think the perception on him is misguided and has a lot to do with his appearance. I'm not saying trade Quintana for him, but if you can some weasel your way into a deal that brings him here I'd be properly excited. His defense isn't as good as you think. The eye test isn't always accurate. And yes, he is an airhead, his hitting has gotten worse and worse, and his contract... yikes.

QUOTE (bmags @ Oct 22, 2015 -> 12:25 PM) Are we sure Cooper is good anymore? Quintana
