If the Sox trade with Toronto, I would be stunned if they didn't target Anthony Alford. He's had a great season, and most importantly, is a former football player!!

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 17, 2015 -> 09:10 PM) Alexei has already cost the Sox more than one run today. I f***ing hate this version of him Well, he is legitimately the worst offensive starter in baseball this year.

QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 17, 2015 -> 09:09 PM) I dont care if Hahn has to unload our pitching in the minors. But something has to be done about this offense. I dont care if it's at the trade deadline or the offseason. It needs to be done. Have a feeling it won't happen until the offseason. We'll likely see a new SS, 3B and C next season.

KC has a bad 7-8-9 part of their pen, right?

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 17, 2015 -> 08:05 PM) Alexei really is a s***ty baseball player. I wouldnt mind seeing him in another uniform very soon. No way should the Sox be in a position where he's batting 6th in the order. This offense continues to keep the Sox non-competitive.

Considering how much his teammates hate him, the last thing the Sox need is to give up a lot of resources for a player they're forced to trade in a year or two because he's a terrible teammate. There are better fits out there than Puig.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 17, 2015 -> 07:58 PM) They are just floating sideways instead of down, probably the reason its not recognizing it. I wonder if the humidity is hampering that pitch a bit. Jeff's stuff has been crap today. Just saw that 1-2 pitch to Rios....holy hanger

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jul 17, 2015 -> 07:59 PM) And that is why you trade him before today. this org absolutely refuses to ever sell high. No harm in trying to see if the team can go 8-2 out of the gates after the ASB. If they don't, then trade Samardzija. One mediocre start shouldn't hurt his stock very much.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Jul 17, 2015 -> 07:59 PM) With Danks going tonight, that is probably be two loses which puts the SOX 6 under .500... Sell sell sell! Better to make the decision easy for Hahn.

According to gameday, seems like very few splitters from Samardzija

Both of Rios' homers against the Sox this year. Not a good start at all for Samardzija.

QUOTE (Mike F. @ Jul 16, 2015 -> 08:06 PM) What's the point of skipping him right now though? He's already been off for a week, and they need to beat KC if they want to be in contention. Clearly the Sox org feels beating the Cardinals and helping the Cubs is more important than beating the Royals Just have to hope it's nothing serious with Sale right now.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jul 16, 2015 -> 07:33 PM) I kid you not, it's on my tv almost all the time I'm at home. In the morning waiting for the nanny there's nothing better than Quick Pitch, and at night it's basically NFL RedZone for MLB. I f***ing love that station. Quick Pitch is just the best.

Daron Sutton is my dream announcer for the Sox.

Please be Rowand so we get STD and suicide jokes!!

The Score is going to be worse than ever with the Cubs love that will be taking place.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jul 16, 2015 -> 02:56 PM) I needed a new show to watch during my commute home so I went with Ray Donovan. Anyone else watch? 2 episodes in it seems like a solid show. Love it, probably my favorite show on Sunday nights right now.

Johnson really struggled with his command. Didn't show much in the way of a breaking ball. Good news is his velocity was up 2-3 mph from last year.

Not sure where else to put this, but the ratings have been horrific for the Sox this year on Comcast http://www.sportsbusinessdaily.com/Journal...a/MLB-RSNs.aspx

Gave up on True Detective tonight. Maybe the most disappointing show I can remember.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 13, 2015 -> 01:08 AM) Kyle Schwarber won the futures game MVP. Dude just won't stop hitting. Cubs gotta figure something out. This guy could get them to the playoffs. Saw an inning of him as catcher, and he made Tyler Flowers look like Johnny Bench.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Jul 12, 2015 -> 11:43 PM) If they can find a good bat for a minor league package that doesn't include Fulmer or Anderson, they should. The bat needs to not be a rental. I do agree about cashing in on someone like Montas if his stock is high.

Got to imagine we will start hearing rumors soon about Cubs interested in trading for David Price

Will they be able to start at 3?

Watching the replay on Comcast....Bonifacio was out at 2nd on his steal. Thanks ump!
