Moncada Garcia Abreu Delmonico Sanchez Anderson L. Garcia Saladino Narvaez

I thought part of the update a week or so again was better mobile visibility and usage? I cleared my history/cache/cookies/whatever and it hasn't made a difference.

From 1-3, my phone says rain/snow and 38 degrees. At 7, it's clear and 35 degrees. Why the f*** did they reschedule this from night to day again? For 3 degrees?

QUOTE (iWin4Ron @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 04:55 PM) Thoughts on Mania. 1. Men's Battle Royal -They have advertisements FOR WM during the WM Men's Battle Royal Match. That's sad and makes me hate the product. Not a good way to start out. I can't stress how much this turns the mood off. Mood goes from WOW, Wrestlemania, to "oh yeah, this s***ty company still sucks." -Also, the men's battle royal is horrid. Worth nothing, holds no credibility, and is a bunch of guys that aren't on TV. BAD, BAD, BAD. -Wyatt surprises us and makes the Match somewhat meaningful. I correctly picked Hardy to win (5 points to me). It was a very nice ending to continue to the storyline with Wyatt/Hardy from a match that could have been a complete disaster. QUOTE (iWin4Ron @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 05:27 PM) 2. Cruiserweight Title Match They went with Cedric here. I picked Ali. I haven't watched 205 live since pre-Enzo Amore. I hear HHH is doing well on 205 live so maybe i'll check it out. Both wrestlers seemed boring but the match was decent/average cruiserweight match. QUOTE (iWin4Ron @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 05:48 PM) 3. Woman's Battle Royal - It's such a shame that wrestlers like Becky Lynch, Bayley, and Sasha Banks are stuck without big time matches on Wrestlemania. Sure, I can't get it both ways -- I can't have classic 1on1 matches and ALL the wrestlers on the card, but these three in particular deserve a lot better. - KAIRI SANE IS THERE f*** YES. - It's whack that they give Becky / Bayley / Banks big time Entrances but then the others just walk to the ring. Just makes it weird. - Bayley with no inflatables? That's unfortunate. Love her entrance gear tho, looks like a super hero! Oh, look, an ADVERTISEMENT interrupts Banks entrance. f*** off WWE. - Once again, to reiterate, WWE deliberately shows us who the jobbers are via entrances. -Carmella gets eliminated first and early. Wonder if this means she's pulling double duty tonight and cashing in later. My prediction is that she cashes it in on Alexa after Nia decimates her and wins via DQ. - Becky Lynch "Im orange, orange is MY COLOR" rofl. Kaira Sane looks LOST out there so far. - This Bianca girl is pretty unique. The 450 and the hair whiplash is cool. -Banks vs. Bayley in the end. Interesting route to go. Nice. I picked Bayley and she wins via not trusting Banks. Naomi shows up as she hadn't been eliminated .... ANDDD Naomi wins. Overall, good fun, bad ending IMO. WWE teased the Bayley vs. Banks at the end and instead just had Bayley eliminate Banks immediately. Would have loved to see them go at it at Wrestlemania, but I understand that this furthers their storyline so i'm OK with it. Did not want to see Naomi win even tho she is a decent winner here as it will help her, but I don't think anyone wanted to see Naomi win.. Meh ending.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 05:34 PM) If Jimenez doesnt put up MVP numbers from the getgo, SoxTalk will break the internet... I’d hardly describe this as “the getgo” but yeah you could be right, unless he doesn’t strike out 40% of the time, then I might not care as much. We keep talking about small sample sizes yet I’d imagine Moncada leading baseball in EV is a small sample size since he’s only putting the ball in play a few times per week. That’s like a QB playing one week, going 12-15 and saying he leads the NFL in completion percentage.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 05:08 PM) He has looked fine, and he is not struggling. I was humoring his argument. I just can’t believe that anyone truly thinks that he looks fine and is not struggling. This is absolutely nuts

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 04:45 PM) He said that he has been "struggling" for 2+ years, which makes it even worse. 2+ years = about 10 days I guess Is he struggling or not? Every day since the season started you’ve said he looks fine. Now you just said he’s been struggling for 10 days. which is it?

If anyone has the day off tomorrow, tickets in the 300 level are $7/each.

QUOTE (kwolf68 @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 03:56 PM) The White Sox at current is probably the 3rd worst team in the Majors, with only Miami and Kansas City assured to be worse. I fully expect the White Sox to be brutal in the first half. I could see something like 25-57 over the first 82. It's the LAST 82 I think we'll see something...the kids will have more experience, we'll have hopefully unloaded/traded/DFA'd veteran scrubs and brought up some other kids. While getting swept at home by Detoilet is embarrassing, now is the time to stay patient.... If the Sox are 22 under at the break, I’ll paypal you $100. If they’re better than that, you paypal me $100. Deal?

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 03:53 PM) I disagree, Avi is fast. He doesn't have that base stealing speed but he's certainly good on the basepaths Then if he doesn’t have base stealing speed, Engel should have been in the game. Engel is also faster, so he has a chance to score with a ball hit into the gap. Of course all of this is moot since ITS TOO COLD!!!!!1 to hit

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 03:50 PM) What difference would it make? It's not like Avi is Konerko out there Did I say he’s Konerko? He isn’t slow but he isn’t fast. Engel potentially stealing prevents the GIDP

Why was Engel not in?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 6, 2018 -> 10:57 AM) Spieth, just when you think he’s going to run away and hide...falls apart again. That Masters collapse really must have scarred his psyche. Say that again

What’s Moncada’s exit velocity as he walks out of the box back to the dugout?

Rondon is huge

Hawk and Stone seem like they’ve stopped giving a f*** and TBH I can’t blame either

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 03:07 PM) 11,131 for you attendance watchers And just think, that’s *paid.* I’d bet there’s 4k there.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 03:05 PM) I'd like to see: Moncada 2B A. Garcia RF Abreu 1B Delmonico DH Anderson SS Castillo C L. Garcia LF Sanchez 3B Engel CF I’d say: Anderson- Garcia- Abreu- Moncada- Davidson- Castillo- Delmonico- Garcia- Yolmer

QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 02:56 PM) Rey the only bright spot today. Avi?

QUOTE (Scoots @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 02:51 PM) Weird. How did the Sox score 14 runs with multiple homers on opening day in KC then? Was pretty cold that day too. Or how did Detroit score 15 runs over the last 2 games? All of their players must have grown up in the f***ing Yukon

They should change the order up. They’re used to Garcia leading off every 2-4 innings anyway.

QUOTE (daggins @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 02:36 PM) 3 outs? I absolutely agree! Runs

Sox are going to get 3 this inning

QUOTE (Scoots @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 02:27 PM) The less innings our pen throws today the better. Not going to make much of a difference if they continue to make Fiers look like Pedro Martinez
