Jose Abreu

QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 20, 2015 -> 11:00 PM) Wow you actually know the person? I recommend you not associate with him ever again. Oh no, I'm not friends with him and if I were, I'd never talk to him after this. He's known as a douche. People from New York are responding to him now

I know the person who said it, and let's just say he's not the smartest guy around... but still, it crossed the line. The tweet I linked to was a friend of mine replying to it

Cubs fan: "New York deserved 9/11" What a f***ing idiot.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Oct 20, 2015 -> 10:10 PM) Rabbit called it right you are a 100% troll! I don't think Rabbit was "calling" it, I think he was stating it.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Oct 20, 2015 -> 07:15 PM) Deflate this crowd! Is there a Tom Brady in the house?

Jeff Samardzija Has No Plans To Re-Sign With White Sox

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Oct 20, 2015 -> 06:08 PM) That should be it's own thread. No reason to bury that. Will do

Jeff Samardzija has no plans to re-sign with the White Sox

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Oct 20, 2015 -> 04:24 PM) Horrible and at-times even bigoted writing and characters. Awful special effects - impressive in ability but totally missing the mark in impact. Irritating lead actors, especially both of the Anakins. And... Jar Jar. C'mon, he's the best character in the whole series!

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 20, 2015 -> 04:08 PM) I don't believe that Keith will be out enough time to give them a cap relief that matters. True, but we were rumored to be searching for one prior to the injury

Time to acquire a defenseman

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Oct 19, 2015 -> 07:28 PM) I'd definitely leave MJ off ..... which one?

Jimmy Butler (illegaly) removes rearview mirror to symbolize never looking back

As stated in this tweet. Thankfully looks as if he will be able to overcome it.

QUOTE (daggins @ Oct 8, 2015 -> 07:11 PM) Cubs got him. 3MM QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Oct 19, 2015 -> 03:05 PM) Cubs got him

QUOTE (shysocks @ Oct 19, 2015 -> 10:15 AM) That's very debatable. Semien's defense alone probably makes a comp pick better than him.

QUOTE (LVSoxFan @ Oct 19, 2015 -> 10:16 AM) Predictions? It will look just like 2015 did. As long as management remains the same, from KW down to Ventura--why would anybody think things would get better? This team needs a Cubs-like management purge. Until that happens, I have little hope for success. Yeah, this thread was just revived for some reason. We don't even know what the 2016 roster will be like.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Oct 19, 2015 -> 10:07 AM) Last time I checked he wasn't closer to age 25 or under...I should have said rookies or guys with 250 or less career at-bats or whatever. The reason I said this is because you included Rizzo, who has been a Major Leaguer for 5 seasons.

McDermott to come off the bench this season (or for now, at least), according to Hoiberg. He hinted at this starting lineup for the regular season: Rose Butler Snell Mirotic Gasol

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Oct 19, 2015 -> 01:21 AM) 1. Bryant 2. Rizzo 3. Russell 4. Schwarber 5. Soler 6. Ian Happ #9 pick in first round 7. Baez 8. Gleyber Torres We don't even have ONE player that would come close to cracking that list on the position player side. Tim Anderson would be a distant 8th or maybe even 9th...and I might very well be underrating Torres. And some Cubs' fans would/could make arguments for Billy McKinney, Almora and Eloy Jimenez. Yeah, Jose Abreu is no Gleyber Torres!

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Oct 19, 2015 -> 07:40 AM) The cold weather is certainly more favorable to pitchers. It's supposed to be nice out here the next few days. However, the pitching match ups are unfavorable for the Cubs. They needed at least one in New York. Cold weather is tough for hitters, but it's definitely not great for pitchers either. Not as big of an advantage as the first two games would lead you to believe. It's supposed to be like 72 here in Chicago today. Probably will be similarly warm tomorrow, as you stated.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Oct 18, 2015 -> 11:15 PM) That has to be a troll account, right? Also, the big storyline in this series is the Mets' arms vs. the Cubs' bats, and while the Cubs' offense had a great 2nd half, the Mets' offense was actually better over that time period. Nope, he is (sadly) very real.

Oh no! The Mets should be trembling with fear! Joe Maddon is going to use his magical powers to defeat them!

Weirdest play ever. I thought it was a shot at the Patriots. You know, that controversial play from the playoffs last year. "Read the rulebook"

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Oct 18, 2015 -> 09:26 PM) Jason Mastrodonato ‏@JMastrodonato 3h3 hours ago One rival exec fairly certain the Red Sox are going to blow up their farm system. "Dave is going to make some moves. He'll be busy." Jason Mastrodonato ‏@JMastrodonato 3h3 hours ago Amazing to hear other execs talk about Red Sox' farm system and just gush over it. It's not just the prospect gurus who do the rankings. Any money we hear Chris Sale to Boston again? Or Q to Boston this winter? Don't think we'll be able to handle all of the "BREAKING: Red Sox acquire Chris Sale for [insert Red Sox #27 prospect here]" tweets, or the "C'mon Red Sox, get Sale! They'll take him for Owens!" type-tweets
