I’m taking all the $1 guys and using the other $22 on a case of beer

Giolito's delivery last year was a work in progress the entire year. The way he pitched in April was completely different than how he was pitching in August/September. It wasn't until around June that they focused on having him pitch more over the top, and after they did his release point was about half a foot higher and his velocity was 2-3 mph more than it was earlier in the year.

I'd say velocity peaks closer to 23-25. Also, he was averaging 94 on his fastball in July and August last year before it dipped to an average of 93 in September. It was only April - June that he was averaging 91-92.

I need a drink

No they didnt. Quintana is giving them value. Shields gave us nothing

We’re going to lose machado to san diego arent we?

Schilling continuing to get screwed by the writers

Halladay was a much more dominant pitcher and was more of a workhorse than Moose was. Moose just had a longer and more durable career.

Good. I was worried about them swooping in at the last second.

Based on His stance, anyone who stole signs should be banned too

If you aint cheating, you aint trying

throw the fucking book at him

That was stupid. I'd toss him a 4 yr/48 mil deal.

Honestly, if we're out on both Harper and Machado, I want the Sox to get in on Keuchel. He's a guy who can at least anchor the rotation for the next few years.

God this is tough... 1) A.J. - Total asshole (nothing wrong with this. i'm an asshole). But he was our asshole. Loved his fire and became a fan for life when he punked that loser Michael Barrett . He represents the attitude I want to see in a White Sox player. Get under the skin of the other team, make them get emotional and screw up, play your ass off, and fire up the fan base. 2) Frank. Guy was my childhood idol and I wanted to be him when I grew up. Such a good person and just an absolute terror at the plate. Legitimately must have been terrifying for pitchers to see him walk up to the plate. 3) Buehrle - Best White Sox pitcher in my lifetime. I honestly feel that he could still be a successful pitcher today, and could have pitched till he was 45 4) Paulie - I mean he's basically Frank lite. Another great guy, who was so consistent for the Sox as a leader and middle of the order presence. I think he was extremely underrated nationally during his time with the Sox 5) Jim Thome - How can you not like a guy who is country strong, eats a ton of hot dogs, and blasts 500ft homers?

Ricky's powerpoint skills are on point!

I don't watch ESPN at all these days unless it's a live game

$500 million/10 years.

Moncada as 4 WAR player next year would be huge. I don't think I share that optimism. Agree with most of the other predictions though

Not a fan of giving a long term deal to a fa pitcher. Get one innings eater and then give stephens and adams a chance at some point this upcoming year

If you're taking on Seagers contract, you're giving up one of Robert/Cease/Madrigal, not two of them. It would be one of those three + a guy like Spencer Adams to finish out the package.

JP Crawford hasn't been a top 15 prospect in 2 years. I think he was ranked around 70 or so at the beginning of the 2018 season.

Good. Signing someone like Jones or Markakis would be insane.

I would do the second trade in a heatbeat. The first trade just gives me a little pause because I'm not a big Seager fan...Hanniger though would be a great pickup.
