Ruxin was far too restrained in The League last night. He makes 5+ Pete/Kevin dick jokes per episode,

Good old Michael "Pine Tar" Pineda.

QUOTE (AustinIllini @ Sep 24, 2015 -> 12:11 AM) Last year both teams were garbage. This year, we're garbage and the Cubs are great. Whatever it takes, right? Yeah, bringing cheetahs to games is why they'll make the playoffs

Just so we're all clear here, Geovany Soto is hitting .227. edit- .223 actually. my bad. and Flowers is at .224.

Joe Maddon brings cheetah to cubs game!!!!11 Another amazing example of Joe keeping the clubhouse loose!!1! This is truly revolutionary managing!!!!111!!!!!11!

QUOTE (Mike F. @ Sep 23, 2015 -> 04:20 PM) This has nothing to do with Sale, but would you guys do a Quintana for Seager deal? I think I would. I love Q, but Seager looks like a stud and he plays third base, which is a black hole for the Sox. I would, but the Dodgers wouldn't although it is pretty fair.

Wtf happened today? Sincerely, someone who hasn't had internet all day until now

This was the bump of all bumps.

I love Sale as much as the next poster, but there's no way he finishes top three in Cy voting.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Sep 22, 2015 -> 10:17 PM) Ben Zobrist is a bad idea all around. Thank you. I agree. I really hope we don't sign him.

Daley with the GWG from Kane in the 3 on 3 OT

I don't get all the Norris soft-tosser comments. I saw him hit 95 a few times tonight.

Can't tell if that's good or bad.

Quintana's bad luck is just boundless.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Sep 22, 2015 -> 04:33 PM) Maybe Fulmer-Plouffe is a little light on the Sox end but Plouffe hits 20 HR/year in Minnesota and has taken big strides forward on defense. Yeah, Plouffe is a good player, there's no denying that. He could be a good fit here as our 3B. But I wouldn't trade Fulmer for him.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 22, 2015 -> 04:19 PM) I will say this much. The pending free agent who best fits the White Sox needs right now is a guy that hasn't been talked about at all. That name is Matt Wieters. His health issues concern me.

Yeah, I don't think Fulmer for Plouffe is fair to the Sox. I also think Quintana is worth a little more than Swihart/Marrero/Kelly. He's a #1/#2 starter on a cheap contract. His value is more than just Swihart and a couple throw-ins. I know Swihart is a top-20 MLB prospect, and he's a good centerpiece for Quintana, but I think Boston would have to throw in another top-100 guy or two.

QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Sep 22, 2015 -> 12:25 PM) So Garcia is quickly reaching bust status but the guy who's older than him, put up inferior numbers than him in the minors and has had nothing more than a cup of coffee in the Majors isn't? How does that work? This love affair with Trayce Thompson is getting a little ridiculous. At the beginning of this year the consensus was pretty much he could be a 4th outfielder at best. Now all of the sudden some act like he's the next Mike Trout or something. I agree that Thompson is being overhyped. However Garcia is more of a "bust" (too early but whatever) right now because he was actually a top prospect, while Thompson was never really a highly touted prospect.

Interesting question. I think one may be traded this offseason.

I'm not saying Viciedo is amazing or LaRoche has had a s*** career. Once again, my point is that I think if they were given the same amount of 2016 DH at-bats, Viciedo would be the better hitter.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 22, 2015 -> 08:54 AM) Wait, Dayan Viciedo has prove he can hit at the major league level, but Adam LaRoche hasn't? You can't be serious. I never said LaRoche hasn't. But next year I think LaRoche will be just as bad, if not worse, than this year.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 22, 2015 -> 10:33 AM) Chris Emma ‏@CEmma670 21m21 minutes ago Expect the Bears to elevate David Fales to the roster. Ryan Pace will likely look at free-agent QBs, too, none of whom are named Tim Tebow. thank god
