QUOTE (flavum @ Feb 13, 2015 -> 11:52 AM) Thatcher just signed with the Astros. Yeah that sucks. They got him fairly cheap too.

Nice to get one of the quality relief guys still out there for cheap. Joe Thatcher is out there too.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Feb 4, 2015 -> 04:32 PM) Both Philadelphia and Atlanta make a ton of sense as a landing spot. There are enough bad teams out there with bad outfields that he should be able to secure a spot where he will get a lot of playing time. I honestly think signing with a playoff team would be in his worst interests. Atlanta is probably a good spot. That OF is horrid so he should be able to see some playing time.

He says Baez is a good bet to be a productive major league player.What has he seen so far that would lead to that conclusion?

Well I'll definitely take Gordon back now that it means Viciedo is gone

On a 1 year deal...fine. The Kirk Hinrich comparison was good. Although we have another year of Kirk after this year(yuck).

QUOTE (bmags @ Dec 22, 2014 -> 02:08 PM) Aren't all of his projections favorable? Some of them. He's in love with the Cubs prospects which is interesting.

I was reading Bill James's projections and he had Avi hitting fairly well next year.

Hahn is a very good pick up for the A's

Seems like all Mariners writers are saying no go on Viciedo

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 16, 2014 -> 12:03 PM) Then cross him off of the list. How did you get in that league? Stole a car

Chris Cotillo @ChrisCotillo · 17h 17 hours ago FA RHP Brad Penny is down to three teams and will decide later this week, his agent @MSMsports tells me. https://twitter.com/ChrisCotillo From last night

Interesting suggestions guys I appreciate it. I'm thinking an Abreu jersey might be a good investment.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Dec 15, 2014 -> 04:25 PM) Why not Abreu or Sale? I thought about it. But I dont like to blend in when I go to games if you catch my drift.

Figured I'd ask you guys. These went on sale today http://www.chicagosportsdepot.com/ws16477.html The really only relevant jersey I have today is Cutler(I dont go around wearing that one). I dont like buying jersey's of people on 1 year deals though. But I figured this was a nice way to support the team in a small way and early birthday present to me. So to make a long story short. Do you think it's a good idea to buy one? (Sorry if I posted this in the wrong section)

Uh no

I'll probably buy the pick 7. What seats do you guys normally get for those?

I'll probably go see them play the Astros or the Rangers. Either way it's a pretty decent drive.

Oh thank you Rick!

Man the Mariners have had them on their list for atleast 2 years.

The Marlins havent been doing so well in trades so far

QUOTE (La Marr Hoyt HOF @ Dec 10, 2014 -> 08:50 PM) You will be sorely disappointed over the next four years ..... Hahn's Dunn. Oh ok...We'll take your word for it

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 10, 2014 -> 07:39 AM) fathom has all of their all star plaques shined up and ready to go. He just refurbed the ones he had made for the previous generation of cant miss cubs My favorite part is he didnt mention Baez.

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 10, 2014 -> 12:51 AM) No reason they won't be a top 5 team in baseball from 2016-2020. I'm more nervous about them getting a big time bat to go along with Rizzo/Castro/Bryant/Soler/Russell Well yeah there's one pretty big reason. Those players not being able to transition.
