QUOTE (kevo880 @ Feb 27, 2017 -> 01:27 PM) Does anyone know how many users can be on one account for MLB.TV? Does is max out at a certain number of people watching games with only 1 log in account? I split it between like 5 people last season.

Update: Luis Robert has been cleared according to Rosenthal
QUOTE (Whitesoxa6 @ Feb 25, 2017 -> 01:19 PM) Really hope the White Sox grab this guy. Don't care if we go way over pool if he is as advertised by the scouts Can't go over in new CBA.

I feel like if they were going to retire Ozzie's number, it would have happened already.

Spring Training notes thread
QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Feb 23, 2017 -> 08:37 PM) Even if he is on his game I don't expect him to go more than 4 or 5 innings. QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Feb 23, 2017 -> 09:48 PM) Hopefully. I have a love hate relationship with the WBC. On one hand I love any sort of international sporting competition, on the other hand, I hate seeing a Sox asset taxed unnecessarily early in the year. It was really cool though being in Sunset Park BK when that Mexican hat took off from the 2009 classic, it was like every dude on the street had on that hat for a few weeks, really showed that MLB can be a "cool" sport. They're capped at like 60 pitches first round.

Robertson to WASH was close, now at stalemate
QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Feb 24, 2017 -> 12:25 PM) Good points, I'm thinking the same. That would be the best way to maximize the returns for Robertson and Jones. I'd love to get Severino but have no problem with waiting until June/July to trade Robertson. Even if you can't move Jones in the off-season, he will still have great value at 3.5 years if he is traded in 2018.

2017 Watercooler TV thread
QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Feb 24, 2017 -> 09:19 AM) Will there be long stretches of time where the main character tries interacting with everything inside a small room in order to unlock something or advance the story? I would assume not haha they turned the games into a book series and they seemed to work. There wasn't really any puzzle solving situations like the games.

Resident Evil Netflix series may be happening based more along the story-lines from the games (not the atrocious movie franchise).

QUOTE (raBBit @ Feb 23, 2017 -> 11:41 AM) Yes he will. Where does it take place? Inside the stadium on the patio I'm assuming?

Buehrle jersey retirement
QUOTE (raBBit @ Feb 23, 2017 -> 11:33 AM) For those interested in going to the game this is the same day as the Barstool at the Park charity event. All you can eat and drink the two and a half hours before the game and a lower deck ticket. Should be a great day at the park. Awesome. Thanks for the heads up.

Robertson to WASH was close, now at stalemate
QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Feb 23, 2017 -> 11:01 AM) Yep, he's just 23 years old. Severino is different in that his defensive skills are ahead of his bat which to me is promising. Usually the defense lags behind the bat when it comes to catchers. I know Severino has no power but if he can hit for a decent average he will be a gem to have behind the plate and in the lineup. Come on Rizzo, give it up just once more. Yeah and you don't even need to set the world on fire with the bat to be considered an average hitting catcher.

Buehrle jersey retirement
QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Feb 23, 2017 -> 10:41 AM) I never said Sale was more deserving because of talent. I simply said he is more talented. Obviously there are other requirements that are in Buehrle's favor that work against Sale. Here's some more interesting questions: Will Buehrle be a Hall of Famer? If Sale makes it one day, will he wear a White Sox hat on the plaque? Too soon to tell. He could end up signing a long-term deal with the Red Sox and go in with them. Heck, he may have a couple serious injuries that derail his career trajectory.

Best comment on MLBtr: "With MLB pushing the pace of play issue, you would think they’d be trying to get Buehrle back in the game!" lmao

Buehrle jersey retirement
Back to the topic at hand... I started getting really into baseball pretty much at the beginning of his (and Paulie's) career. I feel like I grew up with them lol makes me feel old seeing them get their numbers retired. So many great memories of Buehrle.

Buehrle jersey retirement
QUOTE (3GamesToLove @ Feb 23, 2017 -> 10:32 AM) The Cubs and Maddux are a good comp for the Sox and Sale. Would the Cubs have retired Maddux's number if he hadn't come back at the end of his career? I would say no. Coming back to the Cubs help get his number of years pitched for the team to 10 and he also got his 300th win and 3,000 k.

Buehrle jersey retirement
QUOTE (SoxAce @ Feb 23, 2017 -> 10:26 AM) And Carlos Quentin was a more talented hitter than Paul Konerko. I think you know whose number will be retired out of those two. Will be? haha

Buehrle jersey retirement
QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Feb 23, 2017 -> 10:23 AM) I don't want to derail the thread any further but I don't think some of you guys realize how good Sale was. Buehrle had the advantage of being with the team for much longer, having playoff success here, and not being a hot head, but pound for pound I think Sale is way more talented than he ever was. It's not really about talent. We all know how great Sale was lol he's just not worthy of having his number retired. Simple as that.

Buehrle jersey retirement
QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Feb 23, 2017 -> 10:17 AM) Absolutely not. Doesn't come close to warrant getting his number retired. Agreed.

Buehrle jersey retirement
QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Feb 23, 2017 -> 10:12 AM) 7+ years on the team, 5X All Star, single season Sox K record aren't accomplishments? Lol ok. 7 years just doesn't seem like enough to be number retired worthy. Just my take on it and I'm sure most will agree.

Mark Buehrle is my favorite Sox pitcher of all time so I will be there.
