Sign me up for Sale and Robertson for Swihart, Rodriguez, Moncada, Benintendi, Devers, and Kopech
I would love to find a way to get ERod in the deal.

I just wish we could discuss the Cubs as though they played in Spokane, because in reality they're just another team with assets they could stand to move.
Again, Hahn said in the offseason something along the lines of that you would hate to see someone you trade to the Cubs end up flourishing there.
Team is just being owned by the big 3 in the division. Just a horrible game tonight, as the two young guys (Anderson and Fulmer) couldn't have played worse.

A White Sox org flaw, not a Russell one.
Exactly, someone like Schwarber would be harder to mess up, IMO.
Doesn't matter, don't think Cubs would consider dealing Schwarber or Russell.

We having fun yet Sox fans? Really makes you want to get out to the stadium, huh?
How much do you think Robin wishes he could go home?
QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 03:29 AM)
He's 22 and a 2 WAR player through half a season. Leave the stupid out of this discussion, please.
It's not sexy, but Russell is off to a ridiculous start.
He's the type of hitter though I'm not sure the Sox would help make adjustments during the early part of his career.
QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 04:24 AM)
Eh, I'd say Bryant. Russell is one of the most overrated players in baseball IMO, and he hasn't done anything to convince me that he'll live up to his potential
Schwarber, Contreras, Happ and Cease would be enough for Sale IMO
Narvaez has a really nice game. Few good at bats and did a good job blocking a lot of pitches. Can't believe we saw Navarro used as a PH. I think Ventura is trying to get fired.

With this clown show.. I am always concerned
With 4 of the 9 games before the deadline being against the Cubs, I wouldn't worry if I were you about the Sox going on a big run during that span.
QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 03:55 AM)
Yankees won. Could do with them going on a nice run to make it even more of a seller's market.
I just don't want the Cubs getting Miller or Chapman
QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 02:52 AM)
I'd send him back to AA. He wasn't shutting people down necessarily
Yeah, but let him go to AAA to pitch in a hitter's park and work even harder on throwing strikes. Not a lot of believers in his starting ability left in the baseball scouting industry.
QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 02:50 AM)
Fulmer needs to go back to the minors now that this team is done.
Yep, send him to AAA to work on his command.
