OT: Other Chicago & General Sports Thread XXVII: Baez Time!

[Illinihockey]

Reason #1 why this nonsense of demanding NBA players play for team USA in meaningless tourney should end

I agree. I feel the same about the Olympics with basketball an hockey

 

[IU Hawks fan]

All because of stupid FIBA regulations. Look how much closer the backstop is to the baseline.

@SportsCenter: South Carolina self-reported 22 NCAA infractions in past year. One involved impermissible icing on cookie cake given to football prospects.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Impermissible? Was it made of weed?

 

[RayP]

Impermissible? Was it made of weed?

Only thing that comes to mind of, is I know we have bought cupcakes before that were like margarita flavored, and then had tequila in the frosting, that obviously wasn't cooked out or anything.

 

[Sarava]

Belisario strikes again.

Those monsters.

 

[IU Hawks fan]

Belisario strikes again.

He's so awful. How the hell does a reliever have 12 games of record?

 

[Sarava]

To be fair, he got an assist from De Aza when he misplayed that ball. And right there are my two least favorite players on the White Sox - Belesario and De Aza. They better both be gone this winter.

 

[IU Hawks fan]

Viciedo and Beckham, too.


Q goes 5 and has a 2 run lead, bullpen has given up 12 runs since

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Wow, Sox getting destroyed.

And got home just in time to catch one helluva double play by Rizzo.

 

[Sarava]

Viciedo and Beckham, too.

Wow 15 earned runs for the bullpen today. I wonder where that falls in the rankings of team records.

 

[Sarava]

Oh and Belisario with 4 earned runs, in 0.0 innings pitched today. His ERA is up to 6.23 now. They have to release him. I don't care if they sign a bum off the street to replace him at this point.

I'm so glad I didn't have a chance to watch this debacle today

 

[Gootie]

League has thrown 10 balls in 11 pitches and Ricky is trying to give them an out

sigh

 

[Gootie]

Castro with a big two-out knock

6-2 Cubs

No they did the usual sox M.O... they demoted the rookie (Thompson) to AAA. At least it isn't as bad as the KW/Ozzie era where the vets can do no wrong.

Robin loves him though and continues to hand him ball

 

[Kaner Coffee]

Tomorrow is Baez Day!

 

[ColdSteel2]

Alright, finally here. History says he'll go yard.

 

[JCraw1]

Makes sense...he has been incredible the last month or so.

Post-Allstar Break stats:
20 games, .342 AVG, 17 runs, 5 doubles, 9 home runs, 25 RBIs, .395 OBP, .763 SLG%, 1.159 OPS

[MurrayBannerman]

And so it begins

 

[Gootie]

My body is ready

 

[Illinihockey]

Bet we see Soler in 3.5 weeks. Cubs are going to spend this off season too.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

The future is now tomorrow!
