QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 1, 2015 -> 04:00 PM) What is that in reference to? QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 1, 2015 -> 04:02 PM) Castro? Internet is freaking out thinking it is Castro because Baez is playing today in his place.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Sep 1, 2015 -> 03:55 PM) Almonte is in his first year of full-season ball, and he's been starting - no value in stretching him out further. Wheeler and Alvarez are below AA, and they already seem to be pushing that boundary (though I agree that both could be good there). Hayes I totally agree, would be better there than Barnum. But I like Brennan there. His missed time is exavtly why you want him there, and people forget but this is a high talent but raw guy - perfect AFL candidate in many ways. Need him to get more innings so he can be geared up for a full season next year. I understand that, but has he had a season where he has been fully healthy? Just by looking at his numbers, he doesn't do anything special, a lot of walks, not many strikeouts, big whip. At least Wheeler strikes guys out. I don't know, I know it's just one guy but, in my mind, he's taking a spot that is someone else is more deserving and more valuable to the organization.

Jake ArrietaVerified account ‏@JArrieta34 This is the show. We have certain expectations here. That's why you don't play. Bro......

Hilarious that LaRoche is getting at bats.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Sep 1, 2015 -> 02:27 PM) Alexi Ramirez should not play another game this month. Not saying he should not be brought back but he should not play this month. Nor should Melky or La Roche. Melky isn't really blocking anyone, and imo, you can definitely with him in the line up. Thompson needs to play in favor of LaRoche and the OFs could have a rotating DH.

QUOTE (flavum @ Sep 1, 2015 -> 02:19 PM) Robinson Leyer, Brandon Brennan, Peter Tago, J.B. Wendelken, Keon Barnum, Nick Delmonico, Jake Peter,Courtney Hawkins https://twitter.com/SouthSidelarry Pretty happy with this entire list besides Brennan. The kid is 24, always hurt, and doesn't exactly tear it up in low or high A. Would of much rather have Almonte, Hayes, Wheeler, or Alvarez go there.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 1, 2015 -> 09:02 AM) If I owned the Blackhawks, I would be looking to trade Patrick Kane. Though I said the same thing years ago too, and he seemed to clean himself up for a couple of years before this latest incident. Bottom line, as an owner, the last thing in the world I want to hear is "Blackhawks star accused of ...." I would be trying to get fair value for him. And here's the article about that that just came out from Mark Lazerus. At least 5 teams have contacted Hawks about Kane. http://chicago.suntimes.com/sports/7/71/92...ng-patrick-kane

Jake Jarvis. Johan Cruz. Antonio Rodriguez. Victor Velasquez. For the international guys, how has it been transitioning to playing in the states.

So glad he had a bounce back year. Hope to see him up for good in 16

QUOTE (flavum @ Sep 1, 2015 -> 10:57 AM) Tim Anderson highlights. Nice D. http://www.milb.com/multimedia/vpp.jsp?con...83&sid=t247 The triple he made it seem so easy running around the bases. That play up the middle defensively was really nice, and a great pick by Hayes.

It'll be interesting to see who gets called up. A lot of teams have some 40 man decisions coming, so the waiver wire could be pretty exciting soon.

QUOTE (CWSpalehoseCWS @ Aug 31, 2015 -> 10:14 PM) Batting a solid .207 in Double-A? Not a snowball's chance in hell. It's likely just an off day for him. Smith or Brantley will get that 3rd C spot. Yeah, I looked at the Barons website, apparently he went on the DL. My fault guys.

I'm assuming Nieto is getting called up tomorrow as well because a catcher I have never heard of is playing for the Barons right now.

Crabbe pitching instead of Montas. Figure Montas is on his way up here now.

QUOTE (southside hitman @ Aug 31, 2015 -> 10:54 AM) Thanks for reading bud! I think Kanny would be very appropriate for him and Seby. Should be a interesting affiliate to follow with most of the rookies and internationals signees graduating there. Zangari, Zavela, Cruz, Rodriguez, Jarvis, Medick, Comito, Banks, Soloranzo should all be in Kanny next year.

This would free up a lot of money. What kind of package could we net for Robertson from the Yankees? Although, I do think it is highly unlikely we let Robertson go.

We got Yency Almonte for 2 months of Gordon Beckham. Unreal.

Minus a couple outings this year, Jennings has been pretty decent this year.

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 07:13 PM) Man, what a horrible signing Shark was. FFS, guy is garbage. *Trade

lmao oh my

QUOTE (Iwritecode @ Aug 27, 2015 -> 09:14 AM) There's always going to be conspiracy theorists that think everything is fake. There are people that think Colombine, Sandy Hook, Virginia Tech, 9/11, the JFK shooting and Elvis' death were fake too. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 27, 2015 -> 09:16 AM) The internet has really enabled a lot of people with no deductive reasoning skills what-so-ever to get to a whole lot of information they would be way better off without, and makes them think they are WAY smarter then the actually are. Exactly what I told him. Thinks he's smarter than he actually is. One reason everyone hated him on my baseball team lol.

Mound visit. 3 straight strikes.
