QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 08:47 PM) If they don't acquire anything until August waiver deals and/or we still have Samardzija, it will be beyond disappointing. Not really, it would be pretty smart actually by Hahn IMO

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 01:20 PM) It just can't be. It kinda would make sense to stand pat

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 04:33 AM) Keury Mella in the deal. Wow. #1 prospect for the Giants. This tells me, Sox had a pretty damn good offer on the table from the Giants for Shark. What's his overall rank?

He should do very well there. Hoping this means Hudson is out of rotation.

Throw strikes Carlos

Huge Giants/Cubs series next week. 4 games, but as of now, of course MadBum is the only starter they'll miss. Hopefully Giants get someone like Leake before the deadline.

QUOTE (Friend of Nordhagen @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 03:54 AM) It's always a tremendous day for the Cubs when they play one of their "road games" in Milwaukee, particularly when the Brewers are selling off parts. Gosh, I hope the game wraps up soon, so I can gain massive amounts of wisdom from Dave "Theo Is Like a Smarter Branch Rickey" Kaplan and Todd "I Refer to the Cubs as We" Hollandsworth. Brewers are going to be even worse when they unload Parra and Lind tomorrow. Can't wait to see Holmberg pitch for the Reds vs the Cubs

Rizzo with a 2 out, 3 run homer in the top of the 8th while trailing 2-0. This has been a tremendous day for the Cubs given that Price didn't go to the Dodgers.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 03:28 AM) A little disappointed that we haven't heard any new trade rumors or updates in 5-6 hours Chris Cotillo ‏@ChrisCotillo 10s10 seconds ago One team that some in the industry believe is a dark horse for Justin Upton: The Minnesota Twins.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 02:25 AM) Thing is, Tigers sent us Avi and he's not special. Now if they trade us Cespedes that means they think he's lousy as well. http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/s/smoltjo01.shtml

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 02:24 AM) Nice post. I approve. Root for Johnny Danks, people! He's an easy guy to root for. Who gives a flip about his contract? Not me. You shouldn't either. Price of beer ain't going down even if we lose Danks' salary. If that contract cost the Sox the chance to get better players, then I'll raise my hand and say I care about his contract.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 03:13 AM) Or Leury Garcia. Didn't he pitch last year? DON'T POKE THE "GREG" BEAR

QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 02:12 AM) Sarcasm I hope yes

I wish the White Sox blew out teams like this

Really strange decision for Sanchez to try batting righty there

Rock, have you actually heard Sale's hurt or is that just a guess?

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 02:03 AM) I'm guessing sale with DL stint. Forearm soreness Congrats on the heart attack you just caused some to have

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 03:01 AM) .500 is so f***ing elusive. That's what is disappointing What's more disappointing is Toronto getting David Price, IMO

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 02:59 AM) I'm ok with a corner OF rental if they're adding players. As long as it's not one of Anderson, Johnson, Montas or Adams, I won't be disappointed. It's more that I'm excited at the chance of getting a core player back for next year possibly.

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 01:56 AM) The overreaction would be to buy with this team, ignoring 3.5 months for the sake of a week. Any acquisition really should be someone who will be back next year as well. A rental would be a bad idea, IMO

QUOTE (Mike F. @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 01:56 AM) You guys are all overreacting. Everyone has bad starts now and then and he's obviously hurt. They should've taken him out looking back at it. Got shelled by KC in similar fashion after the ASB

Need for Rodon and Danks to shut down a red-hot Yankees offense this weekend.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 01:54 AM) Wtf you doing robin That was some exhibition of bad pitch calling

Awful performance by Sale. Completely choked when team needed him.

Sale pitching like he's facing the Twins. Just a terrible start for him.
