QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 25, 2017 -> 07:07 AM) Especially since they forgot and apologized last year about them winning a championship. They had a graphic Chicago vs. Cleveland 10 championships to 1 befor the WS. 6 Bulls, 3 Hawks, 1 Bears..... Yeah I recall that.

Not a "buy-low" candidate but Adrian Gonzalez really has no room on the Dodgers roster. He would be the perfect guy to trade for (along with a good prospect or two) if he was with another team but since the Dodgers don't really seem to care about money, it's likely they'd be more willing to release him. He's set to make $22.4 million next season, the last year of his contract.

QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Oct 25, 2017 -> 06:55 AM) ESPN posted a graphic on twitter saying the 98 yanks were the only team in the modern era to win a WS with 2 or fewer losses. There's a team in 2005 that went 11-1 to a World Series Championship.... Wow. It's really not that hard to do a search for it even if you don't know off the top of your head.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Oct 25, 2017 -> 06:46 AM) What now Yeah you can't just post that without saying what they did haha

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 24, 2017 -> 02:10 PM) I hope Red Skull makes a surprise appearance in one of the upcoming Avengers movies. I know Weaving was pretty harsh on Marvel shortly after the First Avenger came out, but he seemed game for it recently. Agreed. It's not unrealistic for his character to at least come back.

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Oct 24, 2017 -> 01:49 PM) For me, no one has come close to the Red Skull who is not only the best villain in the MCU but Hugo Weaving gave one of the better performances in the whole MCU Red Skull is definitely up there.

QUOTE (TheFutureIsNear @ Oct 23, 2017 -> 02:22 PM) Also really like the idea of Joc...wonder if a Joc for Nate Jones trade would make sense? Definitely some debate there tho...1)Would we be selling low on an injured jones? 2) would the dodgers even be interested without seeing him healthy 1st? Injured Jones is just regular Jones...there is no healthy Jones anymore.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 23, 2017 -> 01:20 PM) Joc Pederson is another guy. The Sox need LH hitting (hi Lillian). The Dodgers seem to always have too many players but they usually use them. He's about to make some more money. I don't know it the Sox have anything that would interest them that isn't a prospect, but you never know. They can take James Shields and add him to the collection and merry-go-round of starting pitchers.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 23, 2017 -> 08:10 AM) It was actually 8 years which is the only flaw in the movie. Unless said otherwise, the MCU movies have taken place around the time of their movies release dates besides Captain America: First Avenger, GoTG 2, and this movie. The first Avengers movie would have taken place in 2012. Homecoming is supposed to take a place just after the events of Civil War, which would only be 4 years after the first Avengers movie.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 23, 2017 -> 08:04 AM) I still love Loki, but Vulture is definitely up there I really enjoyed the entire scene I think that was my favorite scene. I like that the villain wasn't just a copy/paste of the hero (Iron Man fighting another guy in a metal suit, Hulk fighting Abomination, Ant-Man vs another guy who shrinks, Thor vs other God types. Black Panther appears to follow that style as well).

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 23, 2017 -> 06:58 AM) I saw it for the first time yesterday and I really enjoyed it. Nice addition to the MCU. I also think the Vulture is the best villain we've seen so far in this universe, IMO.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 20, 2017 -> 05:29 PM) Was it a bad thing when the 82-80 Cardinals won? And then won the World Series haha

QUOTE (flavum @ Oct 20, 2017 -> 04:30 PM) https://twitter.com/ChrisKuc/status/921486187507970048 Petricka elbow surgery. 3-4 months. Whatever. Lol It doesn't happen enough in the season he has to get hurt in the off-season.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Oct 20, 2017 -> 04:13 PM) You should really realize how young some of these players are before saying some of this stuff especially cause a lot of it isn't true. And if it was, wouldn't you be ecstatic that your team could make it that far with half of your core being like you say they are? Yeah going to the NLCS three years in a row with one of those years being a World Series win isn't bad at all. No matter how bad the league competition may be.

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Oct 20, 2017 -> 02:48 PM) This is the second time you've brought Homer into a discussion that has nothing to do with it. Stop, you're loyalty to the royal blue is showing. Before you can ask, this was your first time. http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=104044 Lol I noticed that as well and joke about it often. About how he somehow manages to bring the Royals into a lot of discussion that have nothing to do with them.

The returning bullpen guys will likely be Strop, Edwards, Montgomery (unless he's 5th starter), Justin Wilson, and probably Rondon (in a non-high leverage role). Gotta get 2 good arms. Duensing I guess could come back.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 20, 2017 -> 02:39 PM) Rizzo had a very good year. Is there a player more consistent? He hit 32 homers, 109 RBI this year; 32 hrs, 109 RBI also in 2016; 31 homers, 101 RBI in 2015 and 32 homers, 78 RBI in 2014. No way the Cubs will go for Hosmer if they have Rizzo. Wonder who wants Hosmer desperately? What?

Is it really considered fired if his contract expired?

QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Oct 20, 2017 -> 09:41 AM) I'm so happy the Tigers hired Gardy. He sucks and I hope detroit sucks for a long time too. They will suck for a while. No farm system, no huge trade pieces (unless they paid over half of Cabrera's contract down).

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Oct 20, 2017 -> 09:46 AM) Will be interesting to see who Seagar replaces. I think its an easy call: Granderson, Utley or Farmer. Any of those 3 is a good call. Edit: I wonder if they will use Seager to DH during the AL-hosted games. Then you can have Culberson at SS against lefties.

QUOTE (flavum @ Oct 19, 2017 -> 01:23 PM) I'm not sure 24, 25, or 26 makes the product better or worse...but here's what they could do... Get creative when it comes to service time and using your own 40-man roster throughout the season, and submit a daily 22-man roster. The term "September Callup" needs to go away forever. The product needs to be consistent from Day 1 to Day 186. Teams would just leave off the previous game's starter, the next game's starter, and the starter not scheduled to throw a side day that day.

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 20, 2017 -> 09:28 AM) Some thoughts: - I'm happy Granderson ended up striking out after the foul ball debacle - Culberson probably played better than Seager would have - Cubs fans should be pissed about Bryant's statements about being drained - Cubs have a much better shot at getting Otani than most think - I love Q but that was awesome last night. Way to continue to be a Sox legend It's the combo of Culberson and Granderson though as Taylor went back and forth between outfield and infield when with Seager, both aren't starting.

Still hoping Astros make it. Will cheer for them if they make it or Dodgers if Yankees win it.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Oct 19, 2017 -> 08:40 PM) Cubs Twitter is pretty pissed. What a grade trade by Hahn. Wish Q the best but man he has not had the impact they hoped. They wouldn't have gotten this far without him.
