    IMO that's a really, really nice deal for the White Sox.
  2. Abomination
    Nola has now given up 2 or fewer runs in 7 straight starts, with 60 k's over that period.

    Morales!!!

    How many of those are a) easily acquirable (not a rookie), willing to dh, c) still have a positive WAR after you take into account the big negative adjustment that DHs suffer? Hell, of the guys available on the FA list next year, how many do you think would sign for less than Morales did per year to be a full time DH, and produce positive WAR? There's always gonna be guys who suddenly break out like LoMo, but that doesn't mean you'll be lucky enough to find one. We got really lucky with Smoak. Of the guys on this team, Carrera MIGHT be able to put up positive WAR as a DH (with the added benefit of not seeing him throw to the wrong base).
  6. Abomination
    Finding available, positive WAR hitters (at league min) at the DH spot might not be as easy as you think.

    Jays have been making a habit of doing that to pitchers recently.
  8. Abomination
    He's been doing a lot of fishing for breaking balls, and teams have been happy to give him a steady supply of them. As soon as he knocks that nonsense off, he'll be fine.
  9. Abomination
    Done

    Looks like someone needs to revert back to the 11:27 pm revision last night, and then reenter today's stuff.
  11. Abomination
    I do now!

    If we're trading away a SP, it would be interesting to nab Brett Anderson for the remainder of the season. Get a look at him while it doesn't matter. Maybe you can sign him for the min the remainder of the season, with a team option for next year if you're guaranteeing him a spot the rest of the year.

    There's zero reason to keep Liriano unless we think there's some microscopic chance of making the playoffs. Otherwise, we're just paying several million for the hell of it. Save that money for next year. Burns would serve fine as a 4th outfielder, is controllable, cheap, and a stolen base threat off the bench. We could do a lot worse. He's basically Barney / Goins in the outfield, but with added stolen base ability.
  14. Abomination
    WTF? Yahoo said he wasn't playing today when I checked a few hours ago, so I benched him
  15. Abomination
    I'd love that, but I'm not sure we'd get that type of lottery ticket. Maybe the demand is higher than we think, who knows. I could see a guy like Billy Burns being a reasonable return.
  16. Abomination
    Verlander for salary relief please!
  17. Abomination
    He had to be put on the 40 man anyway I think (or maybe he was already). Probably not a big deal.
  18. Abomination
    Finally. He needs an extended look this time.
  19. Abomination
    I'm not sure about easily, but there is certainly hope. I think we need one really good starting pitcher (plus resolving the Sanchez blisters), and either a LF or 2B (Travis could probably move to LF if necessary, which might keep him healthier). That's assuming JB returns of course. Whether management will pony up for any of that is anyone's guess. IF Detroit is willing to dump Verlander's salary without a blue chip guy also coming back, he'd be really interesting as the pitcher (I'm assuming we don't want to pay through the nose for someone like Darvish in FA). Dee Gordon could be interesting at 2B.
  20. Abomination
    Rodon now has 8 k's through 3 innings. He has given up 4 runs though.
  21. Abomination
    At this rate, we could be for the #1 pick.
  22. Abomination
    The losses are probably better for us right now. Keep going, please.
  23. Abomination
    We basically gave up someone who would probably never be called up, for someone who might actually provide some use for us. Hard to dislike it.
  24. Abomination
    When the ump falls asleep, then guesses ...
  25. Abomination
    Definitely. Having issues moving and throwing, no power at the plate. I sometimes wish they'd just DL guys for 2 weeks, let them take care of it, then be actually good the rest of the year. Playing through the injury at replacement level, while not allowing it to heal, doesn't help anyone.
