Jose Abreu

QUOTE (bear_brian @ Jan 5, 2015 -> 12:13 PM) Agreed wholeheartedly, especially your comment that we ought to be a $150M payroll team. This constant notion of penny pinching based on attendance has really had one result - less people attending Sox games. Acquiring Scherzer would change the entire dynamic of the outside perception of the Sox, the eternally cynical view of our fan base - including many in this forum - allow us to compete with those north side incompetents, and put us in the position to challenge for the pennant on an annual basis. I agree, Scherzer would have a gigantic impact on an already very improved team and fanbase. I know it's possible, but I don't think it will happen.

One more thing I'd do is add another bullpen arm, as I still don't trust this current group.

I would not have done anything differently. My only fear is our stars getting bitten by the injury bug- imagine how much weaker our rotation would look without Sale, or how our lineup would appear without Abreu. If this team can stay healthy, then watch out.

Great, entertaining game

I think Anthony Davis would win MVP if the season ended now. He's definitely been the best and most valuable player so far, because he is the best combo of defense and offensive efficiency.

Looking forward to tonight's game. Rose vs Davis will be fun to watch

http://espn.go.com/blog/sweetspot/post/_/i...reakout-hitters Garcia is #9 on that list ^

A 49 point 4th quarter- 2 more would've tied a 50+ year old record.

By the end of the season, I'd hope that the only backcourt that can even be compared to Rose/Jimmy is Steph/Klay.

Rose is in attack mode. I love this Derrick.

What a game this has been!

Maybe it's Texas, because this would make no sense for the Cubs.

QUOTE (flavum @ Dec 16, 2014 -> 12:07 PM) https://twitter.com/ChrisCotillo/status/544916342030483456 Please no. He's garbage. I'd take both Noesi and Danks over him.

Is it 2004?

We might as well sign Scherzer.

86-76

QUOTE (Vance Law @ Dec 15, 2014 -> 02:11 PM) It would seem a projection system like this will only project for improvements for a player if they have multiple years of success or continual improvement. So why would Quintana not be projected for improvement?

So we're introducing Robertson and Samardzija before Duke and LaRoche?

Dan Hayes ‏@CSNHayes 2m2 minutes ago White Sox to intro Jeff Samardzjia and David Robertson at 2:30 pm press conference Tues at U.S. Cellular Field.

Yeah, those projections are grossly pessimistic.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Dec 14, 2014 -> 09:26 PM) So we're at $115 million right now, give it take? As of now, I believe so, but that number will drop after the mysterious "corresponding roster move".

And is Surkamp giving up #53 to Melky? lol

QUOTE (kev211 @ Dec 14, 2014 -> 06:08 PM) When is the press conferences for all these guys? I was wondering the same thing, it's weird how even LaRoche and Duke haven't been formally introduced.
