QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Jun 29, 2016 -> 09:51 PM) The Sox have a nice easy patch in their schedule coming up but I think they should seriously be navigating the trade market as sellers and getting a feel of the trade value of guys like Robertson, Melky and even Quintana, who I would only move if I'm getting an elite prospect back in any package. If the Sox are smart and take their lumps for two seasons they can really improve the trajectory of the franchise for the better. But would Jerry want to do that? If you are rebuilding for two years, then you have to trade Sale/Abreu/Frazier also

QUOTE (Condor13 @ Jun 29, 2016 -> 10:31 PM) Melky has been listed as out for 3-4 days. Some lineup when your 4, 5 and 7 hitters are all at .214 or lower. This is what happens when you sit on your hands and don't make upgrades after LaRoche quit

Anderson picking up where team left off with one of the worst at bats of the season

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jun 30, 2016 -> 12:15 AM) Jerry doesn't fire anyone. He has a .500 ball club and now he's content lol He's just content with seeing both of his franchises become irrelevant

How does Hahn still have a job? Hard to be worse than he's been the last two years.

QUOTE (soxfan85 @ Jun 29, 2016 -> 11:00 AM) While completely ignoring the fact that it took 15 innings to beat a horrendous team, and that they barely pulled one out against the same team the night before (after losing 6 of 7 the previous week to a couple teams over .500). If the past week showed me anything, it is that the Cubs are not invincible and can be beat by the teams that are .500 or above, especially if that team has some damn bats in the lineup instead of the minor league squads a lot of NL bottom feeders throw out there. Furthermore, if Arrieta keeps throwing the ball all over the place, they aren't winning anything. Oh and don't worry...I am sure they will beat up on "Cody Reed" today and the media will have a circle jerk about their sweep of Cincinnati. YEAH!! 3 batters, 3 runs

QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jun 29, 2016 -> 04:03 AM) Damn this Cubs team is a fun watch. Joe Maddon is playing Go when the rest of the league is playing checkers. He managed a bad game tonight and got lucky zobrist caught that ball. I'm sure the media will kiss the ground he walks on because the last two innings

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 29, 2016 -> 04:52 AM) Baez for Nate Jones and David Robertson. Why not? Might as well help the Cubs win a World Series so about 5 years from now the city of Chicago is finally bored with it...unless they have their Braves'-like dynasty. Just stop

QUOTE (WhiteSoxfan1986 @ Jun 29, 2016 -> 04:43 AM) J.J. Hoover gets completely squeezed on a Zobrist walk in the 15th. Zobrist scores the tying run as Bryant hits a soft dribbler through the left side for the go-ahead run. Hoover is so bad. Check out the strike zone Twitter from this game. Some of the calls vs Reds are comical. Oh well

Worst game of the season. Offense looked like it had too much fun on the off day

A big indictment to me on how much Hahn sucks is how he acquires players that no one even wants after they are released.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jun 29, 2016 -> 02:44 AM) Can't wait to see the failure of year 3 considering this FA class sucks and our minor league leaves little to be desired. We will acquire someone from the NL to fix the offense that comes over and has his worst season ever

Holy cow Coats looks overmatched

QUOTE (Insp @ Jun 29, 2016 -> 02:39 AM) Eaton struck out by swinging on 2 pitches that were out of the strike zone. Can't win by being overly aggressive. He's late on the fastball a lot lately. Average boosted a lot by infield hits

12 for last 98 with RISP

So many games this team is just awful with RISP. Why do they keep acting like a fastball is coming?

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jun 29, 2016 -> 03:15 AM) Every single big out has been on a change. You'd think we'd scout that Absolutely awful to see their game plan tonight

Way out in front of changeup once again

Anderson has been superb on defense

QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ Jun 29, 2016 -> 03:03 AM) The team just doesn't feel any different than it did a year ago right now, two years ago right now, or even three years ago right now. Actually felt like last year's team had more potential if Samardzija and Melky got it going. This current team has too many mediocre players with low ceilings trying to cover the holes.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jun 29, 2016 -> 01:56 AM) Pitching around one of the best average hitters of our Life to face a .252 hitter. Probably everyone's idea. Dozier is on fire right now.

Abreu has lost so much pop

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Jun 29, 2016 -> 01:52 AM) GG boys. Rocked, hard, by the f***ing TWINS at home. 8 games out....no doubt they will be in worse shape in the standings than they were at last year's deadline

Was it Cooper's genius idea to pitch around Mauer

Vintage Q game. Just can't get it done in the 6th
