  1. oh my god, get fucked millar
  2. why? makes samardzidja more valuable this season, then we just spend 20 mil next year and negotiate with tanaka.
  3. maybe they just want to [expletive] with his head a little
  4. are the white sox gonna play this [expletive]? im asking for a friend's fantasy team
  5. I can't believe it's been that long since he's thrown a pitch in the majors.
  6. hey guys how's the game go... http://i.imgur.com/2U8Sn.gif
  7. http://blacksportsonline.com/index/5yvj8o.gif
  8. The team who's not going to give him up for Darwin Barney? Might as well just hang on to Anderson and hope he brings back more than the 5th .500 ops middle infielder in your organization
  9. that's not the point so...
  10. It's not about "what I would give up for him," it's about what they would accept for him. What do they have to gain from taking our garbage? Just because that's what Anderson's risk is worth to us, does not mean that's his "value." You don't go into Best Buy (you shouldn't anyway, screw you derwood) and look at a $1,400 60-inch tv and go "well it would be nice, but I already have this nice 50 inch" and offer the store $400 for it because that's what it's worth to you.
  11. i had no idea it snowed in australia
  12. I dont want Beede that high. And I'm high on him.
  13. There are 30 teams or whatever and shitloads of money floating around. When an elite guy shows up on the market, one of those 30 teams are going to blow up their budget to sign him. Nothing short of a salary cap will ever change that.
  14. Lake for Ackley would great. Sell high on Lake for a guy the Mariners would love to move on from.
  15. man youre lucky its not thursday cause id [expletive] you up
  16. You say it as if it is obvious, but some insisted that if the Cubs are still bad at Theo's run, it must have been due to outside circumstances beyond his control. You clearly didn't understand his post. he understood it, he's just kyle
  17. very proud of everyone here (except uss :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: ) for not responding to kyle stupid troll [expletive] in this thread. keep ignoring him until he ramps it up to even more epic stupidity, please.
  18. Sounds about right; I always think back to how he said he was "blown away" by Ricketts' pitch to get him to come here, and I have to think that a huge part of that was emphasizing how they'd be able to modernize and upgrade the ballpark like Boston did and how much money that would bring in. While it makes sense that Theo would be relatively broadsided by the way things have played out, it's very disconcerting how stymied the Ricketts are, and it just again makes me worried that Theo and co. could be out of here sooner rather than later if the logjam doesn't clear up soon and the team doesn't turn around pretty damn fast. how big of a concern would it really be if theo and the rest left? i like the people we have, but it's not like they have a bunch of secrets that no one else does and are using them to exploit all the other teams' idiocy. what is their value over replacement right now? i love that we have smart people rather than hendrys, but i'm not seeing a ton of amazing moves that couldn't be replicated by another group of people who have been given instructions to try to get good prospects and don't worry about whether you finish in last place over and over again. if everyone left, i assume ricketts would just go hire more smart people who want to build slowly and they would do basically the same thing as we've seen to this point. "heh, even if ron santo retires, we'll just bring up another awesome third baseman." -- my grandpa in like 1948 or w/e
  19. that would require actually watching the games beep beep boop boop i am a computer
  20. i cant picture any scenario that includes peter gammons having intelligible discussions with a japanese franchise. he's just saying what he's been told from people who have been told from other people.
  21. At this point in the process, there's no difference between good mocks and bad mocks. Might as well read as many as you can find and create a consensus yourself
  22. I would be interested in Starling. The tools that made him so exciting (though I didn't want him in that draft) in the first place are still there
