    World Series starts Wednesday. They won't announce it then. John Henry talked to reporters... I don't know about that? It's just a GM hiring.

    Thanks bro. I predict this gets done Tuesday. Press conference Wednesday. Party on this thread right after at 3 central time. Love fest ensues and N&G finally professes his undying love for me. BOOK IT!

    Sure....the "make user a mod" button is curiously placed next to the "ban for eternity" button though. Hope my parkinson's doesn't act up. So is that a yes? ; - )

    So what's the scoop this morning anything new? Please be gentle I'm waking up from a bender. Edit: Reading the last couple of pages. What happened to this thread? Did you people all drop X at the same time or something. Where are the mods to stop this nonsense? Can someone give me mod rights to properly get this thread back on track?

    Yes. It would be more worthwhile if I bothered to post trite and asinine drivel at a rate of roughly 3,244 posts a year. Enough. THEO FN EPSTEIN. Well you have an excellent point. ftfy Wait, what? I didn't write tha... You little trickster!

    Who are you? I was wondering the same of you. Weirdo. I've been lurking here for probably 6-7 years and I can't remember any of your twenty two thousand posts. Now that is weird. Actually, it isn't. Anyway: THEO FN EPSTEIN No, it's actually weird you've been lurking for 6-7 years.

    43% of the jackassery afoot is his doing. I crunched the numbers with science. What? It's gotta be higher then that. Again, stop obsessing over me guys and get back on track with the thread subject.

    http://score670.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=63274 I didn't even know the score had their own board. That's muddled mess. And they use PHPBB? cheap bastards.

    You mean Boston doesn't want to.
  15. C.C.
    Yeah they should be falling over themselves to hand over young power pitching because he failed to live up to the obligations of an overslot draft pick. He was probably the best reliever on the team in the second half...and he's clearly still growing as a pitcher. I'd rather not give up major league talent. I think it's dumb to do so. For Theo? You're crazy.
  16. C.C.
    What prospects do you think you can get for a 29 year old inconsistent catcher? What if he has a good year next year? Why get rid of him now at his lowest value. We don't have anyone better and he's not completely worthless.
  17. C.C.
    Who is out there that would be better? Seriously, I have no idea what catching free agents are available.
  18. C.C.
    What if they win the WS and Theo decides to stay or next year other teams are looking for a GM and pay more money for his services. Get it done now. What if? There is no way that Theo is going back to the Red Sox front office. If this deal breaks down, the Sox will pay Theo to sit the year out. They have publicly expressed a lack of trust in his judgement with the latest Henry interview. As far as other teams go. They had the same opportunity to request an interview this offseason and no one did. I'd take my chances that Theo would be willing to sign a deal that he thought was acceptable this offseason. Things change in a year and GM's get fired. You don't know what will happen next year.
  19. C.C.
    How about Geo Soto too? Hm... no thanks? He's 29 years old and he isn't good behind the plate or at the plate. He hit .202 with RISP last year in 114 at-bats. He has the 7th highest WAR among catches between 2008-2011. I am find with that for my starting catcher. Not a great year last year and rather inconsistent but still a solid catcher. Oh and he's improved behind the plate. Yeah, Soto is fine. We can do a lot worse.

    I'd give up McNutt and my left Nut. Close it out.

    So if Theo is such an idiot, why do we have to give up anything for him? Because he's under contract with the Red Sox. I should rephrase, why should we give them anything of value for Theo if he's the only 'idiot' in that organization to sign Crawford to the deal. Forget that Crawford was a very good player with Tampa Bay before this season. Not saying he was worth that contract but the Red Sox have the financial ability to overspend on players. A comment like this should hurt some of the Red Sox leverage though. I agree, but Boston doesn't. So here we are...

    So if Theo is such an idiot, why do we have to give up anything for him? Because he's under contract with the Red Sox. Yeah, but aren't the Cubs doing the Sox a favor if they are willing to take the idiot and in effect give the Sox $3.5 million to take him off their hands? They have every right to receive as much compensation as they can get.

    Then what are we? The Cubs look like the Patriots compared to the Red Sox. The Cubs really aren't that inept anymore. I think Tom is doing a great job at running the franchise especially after Hendry was fired. The Cubs were more stupid than douchebags. True. But don't give Tom too much credit yet. We have to see results first.
