so any idea what sands wears on his thumb when he bats, also what kind of mouth piece does lawrie use, heard stone talk about it a little but then they talked about something else.

The eaton thing was after the homerun high five. I love how rollins and lawrie were working on their victory high five after the game. Hope they get to do it a lot.

Well after still hearing about this i am thinking laroche was thinking about retiring already and this made it easier for him to do. KW is not going to name players or coaches that had a problem with it , and he has no problem being the bad guy. I also get the feeling players walk all over robin and he is a yes man for them.

I still dont understand why people are upset about this. His boss told him not to bring his kid as much and laroche said fine he quits.

I dont see why he needed to bring his kid in everyday. Maybe once as a neat expierence but that would be it. It obviously was a distraction cause something had to be done about it.

the first time i actually followed the draft was when we took rodon, i honestly never thought he would fall to us and was shocked we got him.

QUOTE (dmbjeff @ Feb 28, 2016 -> 03:52 PM) The last few Nationals players? Should they avoid Bryce Harper too? You may have thought Desmond was a bad fit, but don't use Dunn and LaRoche as reasons why. That is so lazy. Or name a player who we will never have a shot at signing, dont be so lazy.

Looking at their stats, rollins put up a very similar season to desmond.

So how have the last few players worked out for us that we got from the nationals. Plus its only a one year contract, you lose a pick and are hoping he can adjust to a new league and new position. Appears i am in the minority but i am glad we didnt offer the one year deal to him.

i saw scott boras name in there and stopped right away.

So have we missed the train, it seems all i see is the choice is down to mets and nats. Or maybe we have become the mystery team.

hoping i am wrong but i have a feeling we end up with garcia in outfield again.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Jan 16, 2016 -> 02:28 PM) He's not interested in the Sox. Back on the cespedes bandwagon.

so whats up with upton, didnt see his thread anymore. maybe go after him especially if cespedes wants that much money.

So is the waiting game a good thing for us, not to be negative but i feel like normally we would have signed them already. Really want cespedes or at least upton, but im starting to prepare myself for a second tier now.

This is literally a marcus siemen 2.0 situation. Everyone thinking we are trading an allstar away.

So does trace even get playing time with all the outfielders on the dodgers. Still think this is a great trade for the white sox.

How do people not like this deal. We kept fulmer and anderson. Micah wouldnt have started or played for us even if we didnt get lawrie. Trayce is a fourth outfielder and montas may be decent. We upgraded a lot at third. The people mad arr probaly the same people mad about us trading seimen last year. Even though shark was bad i would take a comp pick any day for what we sent to oakland.

So i may not know a lot about pitching coaches but i was always under the impression that coop was one of the best in the games, am i correct, or incorrect. Also with shark and coop rift is it personalities clashing, or is coop telling shark to do things and shark wont. Also i guess could be the other way around maybe coop changed something and now shark is getting lit up so he blames him,

Nothing like paying money to go to a sporting event and then proceed to be amazed by making a wave and watching it for a whole inning. The hate for the wave runs deep in my family, we have stopped them in the outfield before. My father and uncle are great at yelling at people when they try to start the wave, when security comes they only have to say they are trying to watch the game and the people in front keep randomly standing. Its funny when you argue that your trying to watch the game and the other people say they want to start the wave, you win everytime.

How is the strike zone. Lots of cub fans seem to be crying about it

I was never to impressed with EJ, seems like people love him as much as they did marcus semien here, i would much rather let rodon work through it. Also sending him to the minors puts him against weaker hitters, let him iron things out in the mlb.

I am now drinking the kool aid and loving it.
