  1. Anyone got the White Sox broadcast? I forgot that the Cubs guys give me a headache
  2. Atleast only 1 run surrendered...so there's the bright side
  3. QUOTE (Knackattack @ Aug 14, 2015 -> 03:22 PM) I can think of at least 3-4 runs Avi had literally been responsible for with his terrible defense over the past 3 weeks He more than makes up for it offensively though...somewhere
  4. QUOTE (Dunt @ Aug 14, 2015 -> 03:18 PM) Guys, please stop bagging on Avi. He's young and he more than makes up for his atrocious defense with his bat. 1.0 Offensive War and -1.7 defensive WAR
  5. QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Aug 11, 2015 -> 07:24 PM) Striking out both Trout and Pujols is pretty impressive For sure...having 2 on with no out and doing that. Very impressive.
  6. I like Avi's swing a little more the past few days. Seems to be a little shorter.
  7. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 6, 2015 -> 03:07 PM) It was a mistake, but it didn't cost the White Sox any trophies. Finding a really good catcher who can hit and play defense is a trick GMs pretty much luck into. I dont think asking a catcher to be good at one of the traits you stated above should be a problem. But right now he's been below average in both departments.
  8. Might be worth the claim just for the hell of it
  9. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 6, 2015 -> 02:58 PM) As soon as Soto started playing more, his numbers would decline. Flowers used to be that guy. People couldn't wait for AJ to leave. I was not one of those people at all. Heck even at his age AJ is having a very nice year for Atlanta. I imagine he's not gonna play much longer. But so far that decision was a mistake and it's still ongoing.
  10. His defense hasnt been good. He's hitting has been awful to say the least. His pitch framing doesnt count into WAR which shows he isnt average. He's just bad. But we cant do anything about it until December. I mean Soto could get more starts or more time batting at DH. But that would be too logical for this coaching staff.
  11. Mike Napoli hit waivers today or yesterday just fyi. May have already cleared.
  12. Did I miss anything interesting?
  13. Well that'll be the last HR of the year for Garcia
  14. QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 4, 2015 -> 09:57 PM) Why send snide remarks to writers? Nine of 10 times they'll do what those 2 guys did. Block you. Those guys are paid poorly, work in a dying industry, have bosses that are complete assholes and they don't get paid overtime. They take 6 a.m. flights to save their dying companies money. Ballplayers for the most part hate them. Fans hate them. I read somewhere sportswriting ranked 200th of the 200 worst jobs in America. Last year it was 199, one better than lumberjack. Give those guys a break IMO. They know they have wretched jobs. If they cant take back what they dish out too bad.
  15. QUOTE (flavum @ Aug 4, 2015 -> 09:48 PM) You're probably better off. Yeah I am. That's two Chicago writers for me. Michael C Wright got mad when I talked to two Jets writers about something he reported. Showed him he was wrong and he blocked me. Turned out I was right. The Bears did have enough money to sign a guard(he said we didnt) and the person he said we had no interest in was wrong. David Haugh said "Dumb comment, but I'm sure you amused yourself. Congrats." All I asked is why is he quiet on Robin's job now that we are on a losing streak. Apparently only when we're winning is it a good time to comment. What thin skin some of these guys have.
  16. I got blocked by David Haugh for asking him why is he silent on Robin now that we're on a losing streak? He had no problem pointing out the great job he's doing during the run.
  17. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 4, 2015 -> 09:38 PM) Better to choose "It Follows" That looks really strange
  18. Alright I'm done for the night. Time to watch "They Live"
  19. I just dont know what Hahn has done here to make anybody have confidence in him. The "right" moves he's made certainly are not really working moves. Adam Eaton right now is looking like his best acquisition. Heck we may not have gotten Jose Abreu if Kenny wasnt here. That's disturbing.
  20. QUOTE (Soxfest @ Aug 4, 2015 -> 09:26 PM) If RV, KW and Hahn all come back they will bail in droves, Watching the Colorado Rockies seems more appealing right now than that.
  21. QUOTE (oldsox @ Aug 4, 2015 -> 09:23 PM) First you have to wake him up. Stronger coffee
  22. I'm just wondering what excuses Rick Hahn is going to give when the seasons over hoping to keep season ticket holders from bailing.
