I took the under for $50 and then live bet royals when e were up 3-1. Won the last 3 betting royals 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's actually funny that everyone screamed that they didn't want Salvy Perez on this team. Dude's OPSing .879. Can't have that because Royals. What’s his OPS when not facing the Sox?

Paulie4Pres Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 (edited) 7 minutes ago, WestEddy said: Wow, are you a baseball scout or something? You seem really smart about baseball. LOL. Guess what? Pick any offensive number, and Perez's will be better than Maldonado's. I'm happy to have explained that to you. Who fucking cares? They both suck, are too old, and neither guy is someone the Sox should have targeted this offseason. You love to argue about meaningless bullshit for wins, huh? Who here wanted the Sox to sign Maldonado?? Maybe go find that one lone poster, and go argue with him about this.

He also would have required assets to acquire. That's assuming the Royals wanted to trade him and he would come here? What are we even talking about?

It doesn't matter if he has a good season or not. Those arguing against bringing him in are still on the correct side of the argument. There would be absolutely no reason for this team to trade for and pay Salvy Perez this season and next. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the answer to that question is that Paulie4Pres cares, very, very much. Why do you care about spending Reinsdorf's money? That's the weirdest thing. Everybody screams that Reinsdorf is cheap, then collapses into a ball and cries about spending his money. They should trade for Perez, then sign him to a 5-year $120 million extension so that everyone could finally celebrate having a $100 million contract. Then everyone would be happy. Including you. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying to understand why you felt the need to bring him up at all. The Sox bringing Perez here would have made zero fucking sense. This team was always going to suck. You're just a fucking argumentative tool, who apparently gets his rocks off by being right on the internet. Sorry if it bothers you when people call you out on it, but if you don't like it, I really don't care. You can f*** off. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're the only one getting angry, here. A couple others calmly explained why Perez wasn't preferable. You take exception that opinions you don't agree with can exist on the internet. Why does other people wanting to be right make you angry? Did you have an unhappy childhood? And besides, you can't blame me. Apparently, Jerry Reinsdorf is responsible for all bad behavior on White Sox boards. Take it up with him. Edited April 7 by WestEddy 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomtom Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 2 hours ago, Highland said: That was a bad game. 13 runners and only three runs? Moncada loafing on the basepaths. This should have been a win, and the fact that it wasn't shows how bad this team is. KC isn't as bad as in recent years, but to be swept by them even in Kansas City is lame. Trade Moncada now if you can. He's hitting well, maybe someone will be dumb enough to take him. Maybe if they still had Jake Burger to play third base! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If my comments hurt your fee-fees so horribly, why don't you just "ignore"? I scroll through so many of your dumb comments I fear my eyes will get stuck in "rolling" mode. Your little, incoherent temper tantrum certainly didn't call anybody out. Maybe you should find a hobby. Like not trying to police the internet. F-asterisk-asterisk-asterisk your own self off.
