QUOTE (bmags @ Sep 26, 2016 -> 11:43 AM) Interested to see how many have checked out on games but still following team. I am still watching QUintana games and hope he ends up in top 5 of cy young. Question for those still watching: what are you looking for? Question for all: Can the last week change your impression of the season? I can't help but feel that despite the failures of this season, I'd take it over last any day of the week. But would losing out and having a worse record change that? No.

Won my league. $$$$$$$

QUOTE (chw42 @ Sep 25, 2016 -> 08:03 PM) Won the final by 200 points. 5 straight titles! How many people in that league? And is it for money?

Don't know if this was mentioned, but Vin Scully mentioned during the broadcast that about a year ago, Fernandez tweeted out: "If lives are a book, would you read the end to yours?" RIP young man.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Sep 25, 2016 -> 10:16 AM) Great player, but more importantly he was always smiling out there. Seemed like the type of guy that was a great role model on the field. Guy was always having fun. Screw the old players that hate on the new generation of players for showing emotion. Its a game.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 25, 2016 -> 09:21 AM) Very sad. If he hadn't have been pushed back a day, he probably wouldn't have been on that boat. The cruel hands of fate. RIP. Reminds me of the Oscar Taveres death. If the Cards had stayed in the playoffs a bit longer that season, he'd still likely be alive.

QUOTE (flavum @ Sep 25, 2016 -> 08:26 AM) 2 others were killed, and today's Marlins-Braves game has been cancelled. The call came in at 3am. He was scheduled to start today. I know it doesn't matter but he was pushed back to tomorrow. So incredibly sad. Big loss for the baseball world.

QUOTE (shysocks @ Sep 25, 2016 -> 08:05 AM) Multiple Twitter accounts this morning reporting that Jose Fernandez was killed in a boating accident. This is awful news, the league was better when he was pitching. Wow so sad. RIP, Jose.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 23, 2016 -> 05:11 PM) Ugh. More games against Central Division teams. Robin's Sox career is so close to over. I wonder what he'll do next year? I'd think he has a lot of friends in baseball. Maybe bench coach for a good team? I bet he goes back to his family.

Gotta agree with some here. If it's going to be a former player here, I gotta to with AJ (referring to a group that involves loved ones such as: Thome, Rowand, Konerko, AJ as mentioned, etc.). Though i do prefer to go with Sandy (not really a part of group mentioned above).

Zero interest in this concert but agree that the Cell should hold more concerts. Edit: also Chance sounds like a classy guy.

On the verge of winning $700...hope I don't blow it.

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Sep 23, 2016 -> 07:32 AM) And then the Sox would have a mediocre CF. Yes Eaton doesn't have ideal RF power but it's his best position ( probably would be good in left too). The gaping HR hole is the easiest to plug- DH. Get a real DH and OBP and defense from CF and the Sox are much better. No reason to downgrade the defense again. You make it sound so easy. Who is available in free agency that is a high power and high obp threat that the Sox can realistically sign? Before answering just remember that 6/$68 million is the biggest contraft they've given out.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Sep 22, 2016 -> 10:45 AM) White Sox will most likely pick 11th or 12th. At least that takes them out of the discussion for QO free agents. Most likely. 7 of the final 10 games are against teams with worse records than the Sox have.

QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ Sep 22, 2016 -> 07:28 AM) Looking at the thought bubble over Jerry Reinsdorf's head, I see: Paul Konerko - Manager Mark Buehrle - Pitching Coach Jim Thome - Hitting Coach A.J. Pierzynski - Bench Coach Aaron Rowand - Third Base Coach Willie Harris - First Base Coach Lmao yeah...

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 22, 2016 -> 07:18 AM) The 10th pick only matters really if they are planning on going on and signing a front line free agent. I don't think that is going to happen. Yep. Knowing how they operate, they won't. I expect them to middle it and say "we are competing."

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Sep 21, 2016 -> 11:45 PM) With the Sox loss today.....Sox now have the 11th pick. 3.5 GB of the Phillies for the 10th pick Too bad the Phillies didn't take another game from us last time we faced them. I would have hope that we could catch them but they seem to barely be in front of us all year.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Sep 21, 2016 -> 07:09 PM) When he was going real good folks griped when he came out after 100 or so pitches. Pitch count means nothing. Sale wants to stay in the game and has said as much. I am not buying pitch counts or meaningless games. They all have the Winter to recoup Agreed.

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Sep 20, 2016 -> 10:52 PM) White Sox have the 12th pick. 0.5 GB of the Rockies for the 11th pick 4.5 GB of the Brewers/Phillies for the 10th/9th picks. 8 of the 11 remaining games are against teams worse than us. I think 12 is where we stay.

QUOTE (flavum @ Sep 21, 2016 -> 11:03 AM) I think they'll hire an Hispanic that speaks Spanish. Hopefully someone with major league coaching or minor league managing experience to a 3-year deal. Who that is, I don't know and I don't care. I just hope they hire someone who fits in with what they're trying to accomplish over the next couple years, and are willing to fire them after three years if they're not good. Sandy Alomar Jr.

QUOTE (MEANS @ Sep 20, 2016 -> 07:22 AM) Thought this thread was going to be about Robin going to Spring Training next year... My first glance at the title yesterday morning, I thought so too lol

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Sep 20, 2016 -> 11:33 AM) Eaton has never struck me as a win at all costs player. But TWTW isn't the problem with this org anyway: Talent is. Ironically, Eaton has a lot of it. And you always try to get rid of him in your posts.

QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Sep 20, 2016 -> 11:15 AM) Can't wait for Coach Thome or Rowand for the next 4 years. Most likely. But I'm hoping for Sandy Alomar Jr., Dave Martinez or just giving Renteria a shot.

Going to the championship next week. Guaranteed to win at least $500!
