August 11, 201114 yr QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Aug 10, 2011 -> 08:18 PM) If you google Comiskey Park stealing signs, a whole bunch of things come up, all different sources. Pretty sure there are legs to it. And with TLR, I wouldn't doubt it for a second.
August 11, 201114 yr QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Aug 10, 2011 -> 11:01 PM) That's surprising to me. I don't doubt what you say, I just didn't think Thornton had that type of personality. I thought he was kind of a p****. Oh no. He's not close to that. First class prick on the field.

August 11, 201114 yr White Sox most definitely cheated back in the day with a light on the scoreboard. It was Joe Nossek (sp?) who was known as the "Eye in the Sky."

Posts like this make me seriously question how much of a White Sox fan you are J4L. And it takes a lot for me to say something like that to you, but I have never seen a fan s*** on the organization that he/she is supposed to enjoy as much as you have this season.

We were talking about lack of creativity, no? I wasn't even talking about the team in that post. And for the record, I think I've been pretty tame. I was much worse during the offseason.

August 11, 201114 yr Indians GM wins Executive of the Year running away if they manage to take the division. Still probably will win, like Hart did in 2005 despite the Sox winning it all. Or the guy in Arizona, Byrnes.

August 12, 201114 yr I think it was Danks who threatened Bautista. He and Bautista barked back and forth a bit earlier this year.
August 12, 201114 yr Jays Unlikely To Sign First Rounder Beede? By Dan Mennella [August 11 at 8:22pm CST] It's "nearly certain" that the Blue Jays will not sign first rounder Tyler Beede, a right-handed high school pitcher out of Massachussets and the 21st overall pick, who will instead honor his commitment to Vanderbilt, a source tells Jonathan Mayo of MLB.com. Beede was expected to be a tough sign, according to Mayo, and was considered an aggressive selection at No. 21 overall. If the Jays do not sign Beede, he would not be eligible for the draft again till 2014, and Toronto would receive a compensation selection in next year's draft, the 22nd overall pick. A source tells Jim Callis of Baseball America that the situation is "not that dire" (Twitter link), while Keith Law of ESPN.com wonders (via Twitter) whether this is a ploy by Toronto to thwart an MLB investigation, as the Jays were suspected of having an illegal pre-draft agreement in place with Beede.

This is impossible. The best GM in the known history of the entire universe would never be involved in such a practice
August 12, 201114 yr QUOTE (RockRaines @ Aug 12, 2011 -> 11:34 AM) AA will be fired before the Jays even make the playoffs. Which to be fair could be 50 years from now...
