how does he get that contract? this is getting insane

QUOTE (Tony @ Jan 14, 2016 -> 10:19 PM) At the end of the day, they got the guys they wanted, and conceivably Theo built the team he wanted. If I'm a Cubs fan, I can't be too mad at their contracts. if im a cubs fan im buying a ton of merchandise and tickets right now they are so excited and for good reason

I kind of like the Orioles saying f*** you to Boras. There is no way anybody signs Davis for what the Orioles offered.

QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Jan 8, 2016 -> 08:02 AM) Ugh. The Sox wouldn't be actively looking for an outfielder if they truly hoped that Avisail could become Cespedes. During a game this year Hawk said that KW believes that Avi will turn into a 300/30hr/30sb kind of player i s*** you not

How do you guys still remember those twins teams? I looked to put it out of my memory early and got some therapy. I dreamt of LEEEEEWWWWWWWWW and a broken record of Hawk repeating how Johan's changeup puts offenses into funks. Waaaay back in 2003 or 2004 when I used to post on the mlb sox forums some guy made a post about how the Sox were something like 3 and 29 against the Twins in the second half since 2001. Don't quote me on the exact numbers but it was something atrocious.

Reminder that Fister was traded for a Furbush

Anyone here play OOTP?

Yeah the pollution in Seoul is terrible.

Ugh, living in Asia makes checking up on the rumors so boring. Nobody is up right now throwing bogus rumors around

QUOTE (bighurt574 @ Dec 22, 2015 -> 12:57 PM) It's starting to pick back up, at least on the North Side. Hopefully down South as well. I've been hoping for it to pick up down south for a while, nah mean?

Who cares? The sox playing second fiddle doesn't stop me from enjoying baseball

Next year's offseason will be terribly boring from the free agent side. Hopefully we will still be too busy celebrating the 2016 world series championship to care.

No other contenders for Gordon? Why?

Hawk is the reason why I became a Sox fan as a little kid. I was a fan of both teams until Carray died. Without Hawk I would have been a Cubs fan *shudder*

I think he will hover around a 630 OPS

I would like to see a LaDunn/Garcia DH platoon

Too bad we couldn't send Avi to the Dodgers instead of Trayce Kenny must still think Avi is a 300/30/100 guy

No ethier?

I can live with losing Micah, but I think trayce had a chance to be a good player. Shame

I wonder what Kenn... I mean Hahn is up to!

Bryant has Boras as his agent, I think he will be fine financially.

He still promoted the game and had one of the best careers in the history of the sport. I'm going to get tired explaining to young whipper snappers in 50 years why someone with 4k+ hits is not in the hall of fame.

This team needs a shot in the arm, I welcome Lawrie and his crazy

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Dec 9, 2015 -> 06:03 AM) I just hope they don't try to out intensity each other. They have the potential to be annoying. It could get old really quick.

They are trying to compete for 2016 but they still missed out on a big OF improvement (3.3 WAR), a top 10 infield prospect, and a top 50(?) pitching prospect. I'm sure Q would have brought in another piece.
