Didn't archaeologist's just recently unearth one of those from the Giza pyramid?

Phone book. Remember those?

 

 

A stalkers best friend

 

a nice little snippet on the sox in this mlb al rundown.

 

http://m.mlb.com/news/article/105470514/al...r-turns-to-2015

 

this is all Hahn doing.

 

having the smoke clear from the trading tables, how would you

evaluate the field.

 

in the AL the only team that seems to have done a nice job of rebuilding,

acquiring missing pieces would be the Red Sox. however i know there are

some very good pitchers on the FA market that can turn the tables real

quick.

 

1. Sox 2 Bos, 3. Det tie Yanks.

 

national league, i am not too good here.

 

thoughts????

 

this team as of today, really looks impressive and yes dangerous. i really

can't wait for spring training to start. i have, to the best of my recollection,

never been this excited in a team going into the season has i am now with

this team. maybe when richie zisk and company era.

 

i am keeping this a positive post.

 

so as hi8s writes.

 

thank Mr. Hahn, thank JR, and even thanks KW.

NL is headed up by the Nationals and Dodgers. Cardinals aren't too far behind, especially if they get the "front end starter" they're rumored to be seeking.

 

Another team to watch in the AL is the Mariners.

i had to look them up, you may have a point. they have a group of interesting

pitchers, nothing flashy but solid. it could be interesting in the west.

 

the other point, wherever the 2 last A+ pitchers land, it just might change this

whole list. i think everyone knows that.

 

rhetorically speaking, i wonder where the pitchers sign?

 

i am wondering if, Scherzer still doesn't sign, and his agent will

go the 1 yr rt, would the sox sign him for that 1 yr???

Even though he is waiting, I think there is a chance he signs a 1 year deal. He'll probably wait until February to sign unless teams start getting desperate early.

exactly and will the sox be interested and be damn with the salary restrictions that

JR is setting up.

No way he settles for 1 year. Somebody always gets desperate. This isn't Drew or Morales we are talking about, it's the #1 pitcher on the market. Some GM will look at their roster soon, freak out, and throw all the money Boras's way.

Speaking of Hahn, I created a Word Document a while ago of what he has done as the GM of the White Sox. Besides the signing of Keppinger, he has done a tremendous job via trade, other FA signings, and the draft.

 

If any of you would like to see it, I would love to send it to you to see what Hahn has accomplished in such a short time.

JR is setting up.

Boras will wait as long as he can to acquire that mega deal. My hope is that he gets a deal much lower than what Detroit offered last season. I do think the Yankees will eventually become the typical spending sucker that they are and sign him. Rumor has it that the Cardinals are interested in his services. However, I think the Cardinals will sign Shields.

Just to emphasize again for anybody who somehow thinks it's possible: there is a 0% chance of Scherzer taking a one-year deal.

Unless someone is offering 35 to 40 million dollars for one year, there is no way it happens.

there are some interesting pitchers, and players that are being release or DFA

that i would mind the sox to kick the tires so to speak.

Some of these teams are overloaded in the OF like Boston, Padres and maybe the Dodgers, a lot will be sorted out when the cuts start in ST. Sox may wait until then to find an OF they really want to be on the bench , just as other teams will wait for Hahn to cut Viciedo and he'll end up with a minor league contract.

yeah good point and i agree but there is still some young players, pitchers and

positional players that are young and were on their 40 man roster. they need

to make some room. this is a great time to maybe pick up some talent, talent

that can help the overall talent base in our system which maybe lacking.
