    Hahaha

    Best 30 for 30 EVER
  3. javy knows my name
    Nope, it's merely because I'm happy that the vast majority of the board has caught up with the math behind the game and realize the idea of the prototypical leadoff hitter is usually a very bad idea. And some of the suggestions were pretty funny

    The more I learn about this, the more I like. Kerry really is the [expletive].

    Somebody really needs to hire Leach. He's too good a coach to still be unemployed. He's too good a coach to waste away at Maryland, but he made his bed
  6. javy knows my name
    Yep, he's getting $8.5 million from the White Sox this year, according to Cot's. No wayyyy How dare they make fun of us for anything ever

    If only we had a completely expendable backup catcher who can't hit his weight or field particularly well
  8. javy knows my name
    Just gonna let this one sit here
  9. javy knows my name
    I love that he's as repulsed at the thought of wearing a White Sox uniform as I am
  10. javy knows my name
    I have a feeling I'll be taking the points here

    That was an amazing series. I saw two of those games and it was pretty much exactly as you said. Total playoff atmosphere.

    not even close colvin blows and snider is the second coming of jose canseco. Ignore the fact snider has been slightly better than Alex Gordon in the bigs. Quiet down, adults are talking

    A lot of fans were turned off by his homerism, but to me that made him all the more endearing. Exactly. I don't understand why people would get upset at that. He is a Cubs announcer, he should be a Cubs homer. He was one of us, a fan who just happened to be in the booth. And Sox fans feel the same way about Hawk. It's all a matter of perspective. I don't care, I love him and will miss him

    He's a catcher. What do you want Koyie Hill hitting 3rd when he starts?? I want Koyie Hill shagging balls, and only every third day
  16. javy knows my name
    Well, as long as our best hitter is still getting the least amount of PAs...

    I might jump on the two of them to prevent them from going to TB for so little a return

    Who cares about Wells' stuff? What do you see in his makeup that suggests that he will start giving up walks or allowing HRs? His K's aren't impressive, but they could go down (i. e. decreases FB velocity) and he'd still be effective. Garza apparently has really good stuff but doesn't locate it well. Location is probably Wells' best asset and one doesn't lose it with age. What does his makeup have to do with it? Wells got worse this season. His numbers aren't impressive and neither is his stuff. He also has a fairly minimal track record. I'm just grasping at straws trying to divine why some are so sure he's trending toward a big decline. If you believe he's a good bet to rebound next year or to just not get worse every year from here on out, he's a solid value and we're selling him short if he's used to acquire a guy who's 10x more expensive and not markedly better than he is.

    Oh man, I see an opportunity to take some Sox fans to the cleaners this next season. Think they'll give me two-to-one that Pena has a better year than Konerko?
  21. javy knows my name
    Why?
  22. javy knows my name
    I will be PIIIISSSED
  23. javy knows my name
    I might just switch to full onboard 100% happy with this deal just because of statements like this. Yeah, it kinda feels like the Bradley deal, only with a much better chance of success

    No. The only pitfall to backloading contracts is that it makes them harder to trade in the later years, when the player isn't worth what he's getting paid at the end. But since you don't sign a player with the intent on trading him before his contract is up, it makes sense to backload from a business standpoint. I have to pay this player x amount of dollars over the course of 5 years; if I am afforded the opportunity, I'm going to pay him as little as I can right now in order to free up payroll in the immediate future, and then be able to adjust for the hit to the payroll at the back end.

    Oh thank God
