2017 International Signings
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 7, 2017 -> 12:57 PM) Don't know. I don't think a team would want to give up their DH to have him pitch and hit in the AL. He makes it 4 or 5 innings, you have a problem. I think he ends up in NY, LA, or Seattle. He didn't mean to have him pitch and hit in the same game I believe. Edit: double-checking the post above, it isn't what he meant. But I do agree a bit. I don't think he will come over and do both (unless he is in the NL as an occasional pinch-hitter/DH in inter-league games where a team doesn't have a primary DH).

2017 International Signings
QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 7, 2017 -> 12:54 PM) Isn't he wanting to hit and pitch? AL is the best way to do that for him. He can DH for 3 games, take one off then pitch Yeah that seems like that would make sense.

2017 International Signings
QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Apr 7, 2017 -> 12:54 PM) WS winner with Lackey and Arrietta's salaries coming off the books after this season, makes too much sense. Everyone seems to be ignoring that there will be restrictions on him coming over as he will be an amateur free agent.

2017 International Signings
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 7, 2017 -> 12:52 PM) If he is coming next year, the most it could cost is their entire bonus pool. Aren't they even more restricted next year or is this year the second of the two year penalty? Either way, they would be capped and can't go over what some other teams are allotted to spend.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 7, 2017 -> 12:49 PM) I will be stunned if it's not with the Cubs I would be stunned considering they aren't allowed to sign anyone over $300k lol

2017 International Signings
QUOTE (steveno89 @ Apr 7, 2017 -> 12:44 PM) Don't see the Sox getting involved in spending what it would take to get Ohtani Robert seems to be their primary target It's capped next signing period so the spending can't go crazy like before. New rules.

2017 International Signings
QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Apr 7, 2017 -> 12:33 PM) Ohtani has told 60 Minutes that will sign with a MLB after this season So if we don't end up signing Robert, this wouldn't be a terrible alternative imo.

2017 MLB Catch-All Thread
QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 7, 2017 -> 10:50 AM) And the Giants. Although I think Melancon should be OK. They're paying so much for Melancon and seem to be a team that is close and doesn't want to go over the luxury tax threshold so I can't really see them being a serious candidate personally.

Relationship Advice Thread
QUOTE (KagakuOtoko @ Apr 7, 2017 -> 09:20 AM) Yeah, this is a real knowledge drop. Good post. If you want to get it in, you should just tell her such and not be use her for a big girl experience. Especially if he's saying they could be friends if he doesn't want to date her.

Relationship Advice Thread
QUOTE (knightni @ Apr 7, 2017 -> 06:39 AM) If you're going to be critical of her size on a regular basis instead of accepting her, then you shouldn't even bother dating her, let alone attempt a sexual relationship with her. I agree. She might think it's going somewhere so if he keeps leading her on, has sex, and then says he just wants be friends, she probably won't want to be friends.

Twins @ White Sox- 4/7/17
QUOTE (joejoedairy @ Apr 7, 2017 -> 08:49 AM) I am going tonight. Hope it isn't too cold once the sun goes down. Yeah I normally avoid night games until around mid-May. Having a regular Mon-Fri job, the Saturday afternoon games are the best for me.

Tigers @ White Sox- 4/6/17
QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 6, 2017 -> 04:42 PM) It was warmer than expected. It was less windy than expected. It worked out ok. Now I want to see Quintana pitch well on Sunday. Exactly why you don't send a team away 2 days before the day of the game.

Tigers @ White Sox- 4/6/17
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 6, 2017 -> 03:48 PM) I'm also somewhat getting the opinion this Tigers team...may not be very good. Seriously. Why was that guy pitching the second game of the season for them? Where is the ROY from last year or the other guy they're paying a bunch of money too (Zimmermann)?

Tigers @ White Sox- 4/6/17
QUOTE (Sox-35th @ Apr 6, 2017 -> 02:39 PM) Didn't foresee Soto having trade value Because he homered in one game? Their value isn't going to change on a game-by-game basis.

Tigers @ White Sox- 4/6/17
QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Apr 6, 2017 -> 01:44 PM) Exactly, at least give him 20 PA's before you say he's struggling Right. Because he can easily go 6 for his next 6 and be at a .375 average.
