QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 18, 2014 -> 01:44 PM) Why? we play them what, 3 games a year? 4-6

Ok people I was joking calm down

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 18, 2014 -> 12:16 PM) This makes a ton of sense as it spends $50 million to deal with the fact that Tanaka is deathly afraid of having white people around him. Hey, whatever it takes to get him here, right?

If I'm the White Sox- 1. Tell Tanaka there's a whole (very nice) town of only Japanese people 5 minutes from The Cell 2. Pay 100 Japanese $25K each to move into this town 3. Pay 100 non-Japanese $25K each to move out of this town 4. Build a mansion right in the center of the town 5. Sign Tanaka 6. Move Tanaka into that mansion PROBLEM SOLVED.

Is it just me or have dicks and balls been discussed in every topic this week. This is a f***ing White Sox site. If you're looking for a place to chat about the sex organs, gtfo

QUOTE (fathom @ Jan 17, 2014 -> 12:38 PM) Joe Ostrowski ‏@JoeO670 7m Cubs are now the favorites to land Masahiro Tanaka on @BovadaLV. Cubs 3/2, Yankees 2/1, Dodgers 5/1, White Sox & Mariners 10/1. DBacks?

I'm on break right now. Why are there like six new pages? What happened?

Fake. Next!

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 16, 2014 -> 08:19 PM) Nick Swisher was going to say hi, but he took strike three waiting to reply.

QUOTE (Tannerfan @ Jan 16, 2014 -> 08:16 PM) Somebody should send Tanaka and his people one of those racist Fukadome T-shirts that were being sold outside Wrigley during Fukadome's first year in Cubbie land. That would give Masahiro some food for thought regarding the Northside. What did those shirts say?

My favorite one is the "advice" from Frank Thomas.

I just saw this on Facebook and had to share it here.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 16, 2014 -> 07:36 PM) Because De Aza has all of those World Series AB's to be able to compare against... And Pods numbers are still not what De Aza's are there. I suppose I meant to say base runner, not stealer. Remember how many bonehead plays ADA made on the basepaths this year?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 16, 2014 -> 07:23 PM) .281 vs .274 isn't a big deal. RISP De Aza .309/.515/.864 Pods .289/.396/.750 .289 RISP is acceptable. As for clutch, aside from his Yankees walk-off, I don't recall a De Aza moment as clutch as either the Pods Dodgers walk-off or Game 2. Podsednik is also faster and a better base stealer.

QUOTE (StRoostifer @ Jan 16, 2014 -> 07:24 PM) Oh s***, now you've done it. Yeah, I'm in for it.

Pods is more clutch and he hits a higher average

I was actually thinking the same thing today (#randomness). I prefer him right now over De Aza

QUOTE (Frank_Thomas35 @ Jan 15, 2014 -> 10:25 PM) $285 million they can have him, fake or not. He ain't getting more than Kershaw I'll bet a lot on that. In the end I think it comes down to NYY, CHIClark, and LAD (even with Kershaw, I read his contract may be back loaded so they left room for Tanaka hypathteticaly). I still have us at a long shot. It's been crazy how little is out there about what he's thinking. Who knows what the money is at, Gammons suggested anywhere between $100-$125. I think the CWS interest is under rated he fits perfectly with our rebuild but it will come to him wanting to be here over anywhere else, we aren't outbidding anyone. He can get the money from either of those three teams. I think we're competitive at $125-130 but that's our threshold. It's clear we have, had interest with us meeting him but it'll be up to him and his preferences, which no one knows anything about. That's why all this is bs toll he signs. I hope with us. All good points, but no Arizona?
