  1. Considering the Sox score a ton of their runs via the long ball, that really doesn't play well into our hands.
  2. Not too thrilled about this, but we'll see how it plays out. At least Kosuke is back in RF today.
  3. Dubois was rated pretty highly. Patterson, Dubois, and Choi get my votes.
  4. Playing out of position, FTL.
  5. There's a guy like Michael Beasley in every draft (Although maybe not as good as him) but when you have a great point guard like Derrick Rose in a point guards league, you have to pick him. A big(ger) guy that can both score inside and outside and that has phenomenal rebounding skills? I guess a guy like that comes around every draft. I agree with you on Rose, but to totally dismiss Beasley as a "guy that comes around every draft" is really bad analysis.
  6. 4-0 Royals on a two out bases clearing double :)
  7. That would help, wouldn't it? Our rotation is crap right now. It was crap even with Zambrano in it.
  8. Three walks for Dempster. I guess he has to get in the act of sucking as well.
  9. Let's not go that far. He is playing out of position.
  10. Really, his scouting report says he can't shoot or guard. Weems is a player. he's very raw, but a a ridiculous athlete. He made tremendous progress from his junior year to his senior, when he was clearly the best player the Hogs had on the offensive side. He fell in love with his outside shot and got into trouble there, but he had to be. His defense is, in my estimation, about average for a college player, which is below average at the NBA level. His big thing is that he's an athletic freak who has been very steadily improving as a basketball player. Comparing him to a CDR, his upside is much higher, though all bets are off with regards to his ability to reach that upside. None of which matters if you're a Bulls fan because he just got traded. :confused: Yeah, we traded him and a couple of future 2nd rounders for some Turkish guy. At least he's a big guy, but (this should sound familiar) he has no offensive game, relies on his defense, and he might not even come to the States for as long as five years from now. Great move there Pax.
