fathom

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 02:57 AM) His pitch count was also fine for starting the 9th. Reminds me when sox talk (especially me) melted down when Peavy got left in the game an extra inning for what ended up being his last start before he got traded. He gave up a home run, and we went nuts.

WTF, they're ruining his trade value

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 02:54 AM) Same deal if they lose 7 of 10 in August this team is beating bad teams. KC and Stl whipped the Sox last week. Sox didn't play that badly in those two series.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 02:54 AM) Chuck Garfien ‏@ChuckGarfien 2m2 minutes ago If the White Sox were seriously considering trading Jeff Samardzija, would they have him pitch the 9th in a 9-2 game? Just wondering. Great point

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 02:51 AM) Not me And what happens if they win their next 4 games after today and then E. Johnson starts (cause Samardzija's traded) and gives up 8 runs? This team was built to win this year, and they're playing their best ball of the season. Might as well see how it goes.

I'm disappointed/shocked that De Aza didn't turn Sanchez's double into an inside-the-park homer

The ironic thing is if they trade Samardzija tomorrow afternoon, a lot of us will be disappointed now

QUOTE (Mike F. @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 02:45 AM) Let Shark finish this. Let Webb finish it. Samardzija will have to throw a lot of pitches likely vs the Yankees

Anderson didn't play tonight....

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 02:05 AM) Abreu and Sanchez loving it in the dugout Clearly Sanchez telling him that he didn't need help on his homers this weekend

Abreu has warning track home run power

Stretch!!

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 09:29 PM) The ironic thing is, for Samardjiza's value, you need him to pitch well. If he pitches well, that lessens the odds he's dealt. I hope the Sox win 12-0. The draft pick is always a fall back option. It will be interesting to see if he isn't traded, if some of the proposals are ever leaked. I think if they were for future HOFers, he would have been traded by now even if they don't want to wave a white flag. I think if they could have gotten MLB-ready offensive prospects for him, he would have been gone. As we talked about after the Kazmir deal, most of the better hitters traded at this time aren't close to being ready in a year, which wouldn't fit Hahn's plan.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 09:36 PM) I'm calling the unprecedented 75 page game thread tonight. Including an epic meltdown if Samardzija pitches poorly

I can only imagine the overreaction in this thread tonight if Samardzija gets torched and the Sox lose.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 06:44 PM) Sean Manaea going to Oakland Wow

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 07:18 PM) What's the story on Wheeler? I'd do this trade, I'm not sure the Reds do it though. Sox would have to take on Bruce's entire contract, as Reds are trying to cut costs.

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 07:16 PM) They gave a top 100 prospect (not top 50) and a couple of other interesting pitching prospects and got to dump Reyes' contract in return for Tulo. Those interesting pitching prospects are the type we gave for, oh, say the rent of the mediocre Brett Myers in 2012. Hoffman has a chance to be a top 10 type prospect in a year if he stays healthy.

QUOTE (gatnom @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 06:06 PM) So, do people still feel like Samardzija gets traded at this point? It feels like they're just going to stand pat to me. They'll probably wait until the 31st to make up their mind, which is the right thing to do given how things are going.

Jay Bruce for Montas, Avi Garcia and Andre Wheeler

QUOTE (raBBit @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 05:28 PM) Q for Norris, Sanchez and Alford. Throw in Pentecost, and you have a deal

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 05:17 AM) I wonder if this TOR deal for Tulo effects that now They for sure will acquire a pitcher.

QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 06:11 AM) I'd sooner have my nose smashed Cena style. U Can't Smell Me

Morosi reporting Norris not in deal

QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 05:07 AM) Not sure they even know as of tonight. Doubt the deal parts are changing before Friday. Giants have very little in terms of hitting prospects. Tor will be desperate for a starter now.
