  1. Come one, that can't be it. TLR and his band of unwritten rule douchebags wouldn't have even griped about that one
  2. Too many fly balls for these conditions
  3. https://twitter.com/carriemuskat/status/726788066950668288
  4. https://twitter.com/omsmyname/status/726638764274016256
  5. Haha ESPN had their best writers give their team a thumbs up or down for their teams draft. 30 of the 32 beat guys said their teams draft was a thumbs up
  6. Fun stat I saw in a trib article:
  7. Can't remember where we were discussing the White Sox but this is a fun WSI read: http://www.whitesoxinteractive.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=144732&page=2
  8. The Bears just signed Hoyer
  9. I think this guy was a Special Teams pickup to be honest. ESPN said he had 9 blocked kicks during his college career.
  10. I love love love this pick but I'm probably heavily influenced by watching him torch Michigan the last 2 years. He was unstoppable against them.
  11. Yeah plus an off day on Monday. 3 off days this week. Yeah but their BABIP is ridiculous and unsustainable.
  12. So the Raiders ended up taking Cook which seems like an odd destination to me.
  13. Nevermind... https://twitter.com/carriemuskat/status/726437442019008512 I really don't see the point of skipping Hendricks so early in the season when extra rest would surely benefit our top 3
  14. So Arrieta, Lester, Lackey becomes Hammel, Hendricks, Arrieta for the Pittsburgh series. It's nice to have 5 pitches you are quasi confident about
  15. If it's cancelled I hope they do play a DH Sunday. Really want Lester and Jake both pitching in the Pirates series
  16. You guys need to relax. Pace knows what he's doing. I promise you.
  17. Got a 4th this year and next. Not bad
  18. Bears traded pick to Bills?
  19. The White Sox have the 2nd best record in baseball and have played 1 more game than the Cubs and have scored 84 runs.
  20. I haven't seen the play but was that bunt back to Lester an easy throw to first for the out? I think in most situations, Lester would have attempted a throw. But with 2 on in a tie game in the 7th, he had to calculate the risk of making a routine throw to first/throwing the ball away which would have scored the go ahead run vs. trying to pitch out of a bases loaded 0 out situation. Very badass of him to pitch out of it though.
  21. Maybe Joe will give them a challenge and have all of the hitters hit off-handed and all of the pitchers pitch with their off-hand. Which backfires when it is discovered that Kyle Hendricks turns into an elite ace by throwing left handed.
  22. So... To finish .500 - 64-76 To win 90 - 73-67 To win 97 - 80-60 To win 100 - 83-57 To win 117 - 100-40
