Thanks Houston for taking Mark Appel.

dammit hammel

5.06 ERA, 76 ERA+ for Shields. Great trade. Don't book the ASG flight too fast now. So glad Ricketts didn't go after Hahn way back when.

the forum gets higher marks http://i.imgur.com/LXeftTQ.png

maybe theyll start a new thread about how many articles are up about them in the tribune tomorrow Maybe they'll create a subforum to focus on irrationally hating the Cubs Oh wait

True. But this new guy actually makes the white Sox watchable.

john lackey is amazing and we were always wrong to hate him

and the worst game in the history of sports continues.

He had a moment where he was like "Thats a pitch down and in *pause* and Fowler over the top of it" like god damnit ron, tell me the part of how its a strike before you make it sound like a ball I get irrationally angry and yell at the radio in the car when Coomer is spewing his nonsense. I don't think my wife gets it. 5th inning is usually the lowlight of my day.

We've only lost 17 games and it's not even close to the worst game THIS season. Yes it is 0-0 tie in 4th? That 13-5 loss to the Reds was pretty bad.

Soler who?

This talk about Almora reminds me of this scene from Moneyball (Up to 1:30)

>Having to research who the Phillies beat writer is to get their line-up because @Phillies is too slow to retweet

Almora woo

Any sports forum ever is like his Even Golden State probably

No way in hell is ZOBRIST scoring from first on a SINGLE.
