>>77103482
I think descension more appropriate

>>77103437
I agree but I don't think the lineup needs changes I think they just need a jolt. I didn't think we NEEDED a pitcher before this year started but I'm glad we got one. Lester and Hendricks I think will end up fine, Lackey is old now so cut him some slack for obviously not being an ace. Kinda wish they traded Arrieta instead tho.

Cubs fans,

How do you feel that Jerry Reinsdorf is gutting the Bulls organization on order to pay for another White Sox World Series?

>>77103599

Replace Lester and Hendricks with Lugo, Matz and Harvey and this sounds eerily familiar to posts I saw in March

>>77103531

So we are looking at future lineup of eloy, luis robert and avi garcia in the of, moancada at 3b, anderson at ss, someone else at 2b, and abreu at 1st.

Nat have only 3 decent SPs, and have fill-ins as SS and LF. They might still win the division, but even that's iffy.

Are the White Sox the >new muh prospects team?

>>77104366
Division is a lock. They have 2 aces, a #3 that would be a #2 on most other teams, a #2 that's lost at the moment, but could click at any moment(or not) and a #5 that gets 10+ run support per start. Atlanta had a little hot streak, that's over, the Mets, Marlins and Phillies are all garbage. Once in the playoffs, 3 good starters is all that's needed.

Their pitching staff as a whole is second to only the dodgers. In baseball. Nationals could have Jansen right now but still have nobody in the 7th 8th or even the 6th.

>>77104669

that was a fair trade

The White Sox have a 23 man active roster now. Who will they call up? I think Lucas Giolito and Zack Burdi.

>>77104466
braves have the best farm in all of baseball

>>77104710
Robles for Robertson?

>>77104737
Miguel Gonzalez and Tyler Saladino actually. t. sources

Does anybody really think Scherzer will even sustain his numbers for another 15 starts? Max is good but he's pitching at 110% effort every start averaging the most pitches in all of baseball and even then he's still only a little better than Kershaw who isn't even averaging 100 pitches start and Kershaw still leads baseball in innings pitched. Kershaw's efficiency is far better while having the same run prevention without mental and physical stress. That gas is going to run out by August.

>who isn't even averaging 100 pitches start
He's averaging just a smidge over 100, 1903 pitches in 19 starts. Scherzer is averaging 107
>still leads baseball in innings pitched
He's also pitched one more game than his peers. Sale and Scherzer both have him beat in IP per start.

I'm just going to ignore the "Scherzer is going to run out of gas" argument because I've already debunked it before.

>>77104850

Post scherzers last 3 or 4 starts of the 2016 season. Actually. Just give me his ERA over those final 5 starts. I don't expect a reply. Of memory serves max has at least three 4 ER outtings in August. Not even hating on max, he's great, he's just not going to be 2.10 for another 15 starts. The only person who has done that is Kershaw, who by the way is a second half monster with all time great numbers in the second half.

someone explain to me how adding Quintana would help your team

Looks like Quintana is pitching Sunday, meaning that as long as there aren't any shake ups to the Cubs' rotation, he's gonna start on July 27th at Guaranteed Rate against the Sox.

>>77108158
Maybe because he's been one of the AL's most consistently good pitchers over the last few years. Inb4 anons try to tell me he's washed up because of one sub-par first half.

I'll give you Todd Frazier for Tim Tebow. Deal?

I got to say I never understood the hate for Tebow. He plays games and wins them. Like he pretty much willed that win over the Steelers. and being a bears fan, we pretty much got tebow'd too that one game. I mean if dumbfuck RB from texas whos name I don't care to remember cause fuck him stayed in bounds we woulda won but whatever. hail Tebow. Hope he makes his way up. All he does is win remix 2.

That's an .886 fielding percentage.

>>77108551
>Tim Tebow won't make the All Star Game

he would be voted a starter despite having a sub .600 OPS if he were lucky enough to actually be a major leaguer

what if there were a player who ONLY performed in high-leverage situations?

like if he was very error-prone, but only when it wouldn't affect the game's outcome. if he struck out every time the bases were empty, but with 2 outs and runners on, hit nothing but extra-base hits?

what if a guy had a statistically weak arm, but threw lasers to home plate when the potential tying run was about to score?

what if a player had well-below-average production against mediocre pitching, but absolutely crushed lockdown relievers?

...

what if there was a man...
...
who hit WALK-OFF BOMBS?

They have too many huge long term contracts with guys past their prime, or even past having any worth. Trading Fulmer and JD Martinez for big hauls, and then Verlander, Cabrera, Upton, and V. Martinez just to get rid of contracts is a minimum before you can say the Tigers have a bright future.

>>77109955
remember when they got swept out of the first round?

>>77109874
I remember reading that the defensive improvements allowed the starters to pitch to contact, allowing them to pitch deeper into games and save the bullpen. I don't know, I guess it didn't work anyway.

>>77109858
Nothing else was good. Not even a 3 starter (they tried to fill it with Shark and then Shields). I was always saying, give that team the second wild card spot, and they could go deep solely because those two starters would lock down half the games.

Arrieta
Quintana
Lester
Lackey

Butler is out for now and probably headed to the minors. Hendricks should be back sooner than later and Anderson might still be a factor, unless he's really hurt.

Basically, it's probably time to let Lackey go. If they can cut Montero, they can cut Lackey.
