Soxtalk Legends Dynasty League
This draft has been so much fun so far! Thanks for creating this league, Condor. I've had a great time.

Carter Capps is most likely having Tommy John Surgery in the near future, so the Marlins need another reliever or two. Putnam, Webb, and Guerrero for Marcell Ozuna?

White Sox sign Kameron Loe
Can he play the outfield?
-
White Sox sign Jimmy Rollins
I don't understand the reasoning why people want Sanchez to be in AAA again. In my opinion, he's already proved himself there and putting him back there again does him no good. To me, he should either be in the big leagues or be traded.

I'll run around my neighborhood completely naked if Rollins gets all 3 of those incentives.

2015-2016 NBA Thread
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 2, 2016 -> 07:08 AM) The Bulls problems are almost all related to injuries. It is hard to call Butler, Mirotic, and Rose missing extended periods a flop. Even if all those guys were fully healthy the whole year, this team still wouldn't be that good IMO.

Frazier Interested in Extension w/ Sox
I want the Sox to wait at least a year before making this decision. Remember how we all wanted them to extend Samardzija too? Thank god that ship sailed.

spring training intrasquad game 2/29
QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Feb 29, 2016 -> 12:41 PM) Video of Leury Garcia's single off Carson Fulmer at #WhiteSox intrasquad. https://t.co/F49YSpYbO9 https://twitter.com/CSNHayes/status/704375817048977408 Man, Fulmer can't even get a scrub like Leury out. Time to trade him to the Rockies for CarGo.

QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Feb 28, 2016 -> 07:06 PM) Austin Jackson isn't very good at baseball. He's not the difference between the Sox being a playoff team or not. He isn't, but he's better than Avi for sure.

I love the Harper pick, BMC. He's such a stud. I have no idea who I'm taking lol.

Sale's first ST start won't be til 3/19
I have no issue with this either. He seems to get fatigued during the dog days of summer, so maybe giving him less innings in the spring would help with that. It's a big if, but it is ESSENTIAL to have Sale healthy and dominant if they stay in the hunt during September and October. Without him, the Sox have no chance.

Is Venable to the Indians a done deal at this point or is it just speculation?

2016 Cubs catch-all thread
QUOTE (iWin4Ron @ Feb 25, 2016 -> 09:34 PM) lol. The cubs are one of the very best teams in the majors right now, it might have taken them 100+ years, but there team was masterfully crafted. and yet they still won't win a World Series with this group lol. It's the Cubs after all. They'll find a way to screw it up.

I'm so excited for the draft to start tomorrow! To everyone that's in the league, just make sure that you're registered on the forum that Condor13 created so we can start the draft on time. I'm looking forward to playing in this league for a long time with you guys!

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Feb 25, 2016 -> 06:41 PM) Exactly. He puts down everyone in the deal and then expects someone else to want it lol Oakland isn't going to compete this year and "should" be rebuilding, so they might see appeal in Sanchez and Danish just because of their youth and the fact that they're cost controlled for a long time. I don't really know though, I'm just spitballing and thinking aloud.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Feb 25, 2016 -> 04:38 PM) Couldn't see the A's accepting that deal. They have like 7 outfielders now. How are they going to be able to play them all?

QUOTE (bmags @ Feb 25, 2016 -> 04:17 PM) I dislike that so much more than a 1 year deal with a loss of a pick for Fowler. You are trading three low ceiling, but likely, major leaguers to the As in that. Meh. I disagree. Shuck is nothing but a 4th outfielder, Sanchez is essentially Semien 2.0 with better defense and a worse bat, and Danish struggled mightily in AA last year. I wouldn't be sad to see any of them leave to be honest.

Trade Danish, Shuck, and Sanchez for Reddick and sign Raburn. Eaton Melky Abreu Frazier Reddick Lawrie LaRoche Navarro Rollins with the bench being Raburn, Avila, Saladino, and Avi. Done.

Fowler Signs with Cubs
QUOTE (fathom @ Feb 25, 2016 -> 12:26 PM) Seeing Coghlan go for so cheap makes me think they're targeting someone specifically. Ethier remains the likely target, IMO Give me Coghlan over Ethier anyday of the week.

Fowler Signs with Cubs
QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Feb 25, 2016 -> 12:20 PM) What a bummer, the Sox couldn't top that offer? They probably did. Fowler took one of those "hometown discounts" like Cespedes and Gordon did. I can't really fault the Sox for not getting Fowler, as he clearly had his heart set on going back to the Cubs. I'm more pissed that the Sox couldn't get Coghlan. He was the perfect #2 hitter for this team and they wasted yet another chance to replace Avi.

2016 Cubs catch-all thread
QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Feb 24, 2016 -> 09:55 PM) Roll call! Black Sox Jerksticks Alexeihhhhyyyeees (love your name dude if i never said it) Littlehurt05 Dick Allen Sign up. Reading anything that spoiled turd Brett writes on bleachernation makes me want to puke. Yes, I troll that page. It's little battles like reminding them they tanked, that Sam Zell used their fanbase like an old whore, that their players are still prospects and may bust, or that now that they have Schwarber all the traditionalist-purity-of-the-NL-pitchers-need-to-hit-to-call-it-real-baseball whining phonies are going to turn heels and become the biggest hypocrites on earth clammoring for the DH when he posts a -50 dWAR this year. Winning those little battles of reminding them it's BS helps a bit. I'm going to need a therapist if they win Add me to the list. I hate the Cubs with a passion.
