Whoa.. mlb network has been talking about the white sox for over 3 minutes now.

QUOTE (Jake @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 11:15 PM) There's no good reason to think Micah Johnson is ready for MLB. He played at a pretty "meh" level in AAA last year. It also remains unclear whether he's an acceptable defender. All indications are that he needs more time. I agree he needs more time, but he played pretty "meh" because he was pretty much playing injured most of it. I've seen him make some highlight reel plays on duck snorts cause of his speed but I've also seen him make some wtf plays on routine grounders. I trust the sox brass on their assessment on him. His speed is game changing for sure.

Chris Johnson is awful, so it should come as no surprise they wanna do that.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 10:55 PM) When I wake up tomorrow this thread will be on page 180 And I'll say half of it will be posters b****ing about the deal led by peavy44.

Brett Favre's first 100 games: 68-32 Aaron Rodgers' first 100 games: 68-32

QUOTE (bmags @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 10:48 PM) Poster JDsdirtysox (I think, JD something) posted it, and someone else said he has sox connections. Seem to fit bucket's "some will hate this" narrative well. No he didn't. Just said it was done and Danish is in it. (That was me who said he has a source btw) Someone posted the rumored deal from a twitter guy named rickslat.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 10:41 PM) I still think we will move Viciedo. I'd have to agree.

Someone please look out for wite on suicide watch btw.

QUOTE (Al Lopez's Ghost @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 10:35 PM) So if this is the trade, Hahn keeps Alexei while Anderson develops. Plus a solid rotation, with a closer the next target. I like the Hahn-ster a whole lot. I still think we're gonna be keeping Alexei a year too late after this season. With that said, I'm glad he isn't in this particular deal.

Let's hope guys like Adams and Montas work out then.. since that is who essentially the sox are more or less riding on.

FYI JD also has a source in the org.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 10:18 PM) Danish AND Semien? Sounds steep. If that deal is correct, I can see why bucket said some might not like it.

QUOTE (JDsDirtySox @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 10:17 PM) Deal is done... and Danish is in it. Aw s*** maybe he tweeted that as a good trade for them/us.

QUOTE (Knuckles @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 10:13 PM) TWITTER WATCH @danish_Tyler7 47s47 seconds ago What an exciting day for the South Side! Well we know he isn't part of the deal fathom.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 10:11 PM) Dempster speaks pretty well, but my god does he say some mind-boggling things. He'd fit right in as a baseball analyst for ESPN.

The dinner watch is on people.

Ok now they're talking about it again.

Is David Robertson/Yankees talk really necessary?

Dan Plesac "Somewhere Hawk Harrelson is potentially screaming MERCY!" Gotta love the guy.

MLB network gonna talk about the potential deal now.

Wite will be very happy if that was the package. In fact.. i think most of us would.

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 09:38 PM) Kinda funny to see everyone on twitter talking about how great Sale and Samardzija would be as a 1-2 when there's no doubt in my mind Q is the actual 2nd best pitcher. There are others who just want to break up 2 lefties back to back. Not saying I would, but it isn't out of the ordinary.

I'm getting more and more convinced Ravelo is in it. Can be wrong though.

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 09:29 PM) Hawkins Great guess. Or if it's just "pure hitting prospect" in our minors like Reed was, maybe Ravelo. He fits the OBP type Beane likes.

Already said in a Pale Hose thread, but A's deal Brandon Moss to the Indians for minor leaguer Joey Wendle.
