Hahahahahahaha

I hope Guppy can get his ERA over 5.

QUOTE (3GamesToLove @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 03:03 PM) This is a joke, right? Like, does your friend know what the Hall of Fame is? Does he think baseball was invented ten years ago? His main argument was his WAR, but I don't think a 20 WAR player is HOF material.

What's wrong with Zachypoo?

QUOTE (3GamesToLove @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 01:02 PM) They'll try to negotiate a new extension a la Longoria over the next year or so, I think. How much and how long do you think they'd extend him for? We all know that his stuff will decline a little bit with age, so I wouldn't want him to become another Danks like contract.

Lol, thanks for the responses guys. That's what I was thinking too. He's a good friend of mine, so I don't want to seem like a dick, but I think he is nuts. Even his best seasons weren't that impressive.

Steve sounds so sick.

This is sort of off-topic, but do you guys think that Danks will get into the HOF when he retires? My friend said that he has a shot. I was laughing hysterically, but I was wondering if anyone thought the same.

Considering that Sale didn't have anything close to his good stuff, he did a hell of a job. Plus he lowered his ERA from 3.34 to 3.20.

They can't even score a damn run for Sale? SMH.

LaRoche is trash.

They wasted their challenge so early, but the umps will still give them a review if they want one. That rule makes no sense to me. They might as well have no limits on challenges if managers can just ask for one whenever.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Aug 26, 2015 -> 06:51 PM) Colorado's system is actually pretty good, they're just really young and are a few years (2-3) from contributing. I'd send Davidson, Micah, Montas, Danish, and Hawkins for Arenado and LeMehieu. If they want Anderson, I'd think about it. There's no chance they would do that deal.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Aug 26, 2015 -> 07:02 PM) Sale is attempting to become the second pitcher to strike out 14+ in 3 straight starts (Pedro Martinez). Chris is the only reason I'll be watching tonight. Same here. I'm hoping he can lower his ERA to 3.25 tonight as well. Baby steps, right?

QUOTE (flavum @ Aug 26, 2015 -> 06:01 PM) I promise, I'll let you know the minute Sale becomes a Cy candidate for this season. Until then, he's not even close. He's top 5 at the very worst. The only ones that would possibly win it over him are Gray, Price, and Keuchel. Maybe Archer if he finishes strong.

I know there have been many amazing pitchers that the Sox have had over the years like Walsh, Lyons, Buehrle, Wood, Danks, etc, but do you guys think that Sale is the best pitcher to ever play for the Sox? His talent has to be at or near the top of the list, but I'm not sure if he's pitched long enough to be mentioned with the greats. What do you guys think?

This is a huge game for Sale's Cy Young hopes. He was awful against Boston last time, he needs to have a really good rebound outing.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Aug 25, 2015 -> 04:07 PM) I like when Thompson plays. Only a few more days before September call ups. Hope to see more of the young guns play. Who do you think gets called up? Does Anderson or Fulmer have a chance?

Samardzija is trash.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 23, 2015 -> 10:58 AM) 18, one for each half inning. That doesn't include pitching changes though haha.

Can someone that will watch the entire game keep a count of how many times they play the Miller Lite commercial? I would, but I won't be able to watch the game today.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Aug 22, 2015 -> 11:50 PM) You will always remember. Carry on my wayword son, there'll be peace when you are done.

The Sox win...carry on.

One of these days we should keep track of how many times they play that commercial throughout the game. I'd guess at least 20 or so. Speak of the devil, there it is.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Aug 22, 2015 -> 11:24 PM) I really, really hope you're joking. I used to hate it but it's grown on me and now I start singing along any time it comes on the TV.
