QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 4, 2017 -> 08:16 PM) The Bayley/Bliss feud is just awesome...not Bliss just completely owns her. She is just fantastic at everything. Pretty good show. Tag match was above average and the main event was fantastic

QUOTE (raBBit @ Jun 4, 2017 -> 10:49 AM) So much BS in the MLB draft but here's what I'm hearing. Supposedly Hahn's meeting with Kendall (reported by K Law) wasnt reported totally accurately. I don't think it means much but funny how that works out. Sox seem to think Haesely/Smth Go before them. Sox scouted Beck last week and he seems to be slipping on the draft board with an outside shot the A's/Braves grab him underslot. Kendall stuff that all he publications agree on checks out. I'd give him the highest probability to be selected by far. A's are looked at as the only competition from a few different people. Bukauskas is slipping and could be in play but seems Kendall is plan A. QUOTE (raBBit @ Jun 4, 2017 -> 10:54 AM) Also Sox have had a former Phillies National Crosschecker join the scouting team solely as the national crosschecker for relief arms. Sox speculstely looking to grab Lincoln Henzman in the 3rd. Henzman's people think he's more of a 2nd rounder though. Great stuff Rabbit. Why would the Sox target Henzman a reliever in the first 3 rounds? Is he as dominant as Burdi was? Just trying to build an elite bullpen?

Javon Pickett commits to Missouri and reclassifies to 2018 lol.

Good to see the Press win a game and get back in the series. Hopefully they can tie the series up at 2.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 3, 2017 -> 07:59 PM) Heck of a start for Stephens, who has to be most underrated player in the system My bet is that he's with the Sox next season at some point.

Dreaming of a Robert/Kendall/Beer outfield....

6 innings, 4 hits, 1 earned, 2 walks, 7 strikeouts. He needs to go to A+

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 3, 2017 -> 07:45 PM) Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't he a projected CF? Yes

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 3, 2017 -> 04:59 PM) You're welcome. Btw, who do you want them to draft? I love what Kendall could bring to this system/team. He's my favorite position player prospect. If somehow Baukaukus fell to 11, I'd be all over him.

Collins 2R HR

Well Zimmerman sucks, so I'll guess a 6-4 Sox victory

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 2, 2017 -> 06:48 PM) He's throwing meatballs up there. See ya trade value It's one start.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 2, 2017 -> 12:32 PM) Live yes, watched every video possible on YouTube. As I've said on here lately, he swings and misses as just a ridiculous rate on the videos. He's a hard pass for me Who interests you?

I'm in first place right now with a record of 57-33-6 (we play 12 categories) After making two trades, this is what my team looks like right now: C Yasmani Grandal 1B Freddie Freeman (keeper) 2B Dee Gordon (keeper) SS Trevor Story (keeper) 3B Kris Bryant (keeper) OF Bryce Harper (keeper) OF Giancarlo Stanton (keeper) OF Michael Conforto UTIL Anthony Rendon (keeper) Bench: C Tom Murphy 1B Adrian Gonzalez 1B Brad Miller 2B Devon Travis 2B Ian Happ SS Chris Owings 3B Tyler Saladino 3B Logan Forsythe OF Kevin Kiermaier OF Starling Marte (keeper) Pitching: SP Stephen Strasburg (keeper) SP Carlos Martinez (keeper) SP Ian Kennedy SP Sonny Gray SP Jeff Samardzija RP Kevin Herrera RP Ken Giles SP Carlos Rodon (keeper) SP Reynoldo Lopez SP Lance Lynn SP Antonio Sanzatela RP Jeurys Familia RP Brandon Mauer Remember, in my league, we are not allowed to add during the season. We just held a mid season draft where we can pick up free agents. 3 rounds. I traded for more picks and got 5 guys, that's why my roster is pretty large.

Kendall and Adell are 1A & 1B for me. If somehow J.B Bukauskas slips to 11, I'd run to the podium and make him my selection.

QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ May 31, 2017 -> 11:59 AM) In a world where an OF putting up .404/.505/.843 with an OPS of 1.348 and a 22% K rate in the same conference is considered a comp round pick. Because Kendall brings so much more outside of hitting than Rooker?

Still think we can net Frazier ++ for Q from the Yankees.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ May 27, 2017 -> 10:00 AM) Press conference supposedly at 11:30, per CSN Chicago. They deleted the tweet for some reason. I saw that as well.

Out of the 7 teams ahead of us, you figure the Mariners, Mets, and Giants will surpass us so we can get a top 5 pick

QUOTE (yesterday333 @ May 26, 2017 -> 09:17 AM) If the sox believe Burger can succeed at 3rd, similar to how they believe Collins will stick at catcher, would that make him an option for our pick? Not at 11.

Q to the Yankees for Frazier, Adams, Adujar, and Florial who says no?

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ May 25, 2017 -> 11:33 AM) I don't think they will get Agau, but I have heard they have another big man target that they are trying to keep quiet. They are also going after that 4star kid from Florida who decommitted from New Mexico St. What other big man is available? Is he even good? I have heard this about the Florida kid, Figueroa I believe.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ May 25, 2017 -> 11:20 AM) JCL officially leaving Illinois. I still don't get it from his perspective, he would've had a huge opportunity at Illinois. Must not have liked the intensity that Underwood brings and demands. Illinois now has what, 9 scholarship players? Jeez.

QUOTE (bmags @ May 24, 2017 -> 01:03 PM) Increasingly likely if not certain Jontay Porter will be a part of the 2017 class. He is a 4 who can pass and shot 40% from 3 in AAU. Started to really rebound this year. 1: Terrence Phillips/Blake Harris/Jordan Geist (used to be a starter) 2: Robertson/CJ Roberts/Cullen Van Leer (played 30 mpg sometimes last year) 3: MPJ/Jordan Barnett/Van Leer 4: JPorter/Kevin Puryear/MPJ/Barnett 5: Tilmon/JPorter/Puryear/Nikko/Smith Crazy. Can't wait until NCAA start investigating Missouri

Rumors of JCL transferring to DePaul. That would really hurt Illinois. Mark Alstoff is deciding in about an hour. Has one year of eligibility. Could really score.
