How's Rienzo's stuff look?

With Ian Kennedy going ahead with his start tonight, it lowers the chance of a Peavy trade to the D'backs in my opinion.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 11:49 PM) This sucks. Something needs to happen! If Kennedy gets scratched from his start, things will escalate quickly.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 11:44 PM) Oh man, this place is gonna be a clusterf*** when we trade Peavy for a package centered around Will Middlebrooks or David Holmberg. It'd be super if they could, for once, exceed our expectations. I'm sure few agree with this, but I wouldn't mind Middlebrooks

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 11:42 PM) 5/10 Oh of course they'd have to approve it with him first, which I'm sure they already know if he wants to stay or go to a contender.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 11:25 PM) Like when the one guy got a hit in Little Big League? Exactly, I always quote that, as it goes something like "Son, do you think you're getting a little too excited about a seeing-eye single?"

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 11:22 PM) I'd be surprised. Konerko looks like he's mailed it in and is just counting down the days until retirement. Next time he bats for the Sox, instead of saying 1B or DH, they might as well say "Special Assistant to the GM"

Anyone on lineup watch for the D'backs AAA team tonight?

Maybe Rick wants to wait until after Cardinals DH today. If they get swept by Pirates, maybe they'll be desperate and offer more for Peavy/Alexei?

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 11:18 PM) Remember that one game where he hit a bloop double. #dangerous Did Hawk act like he just won the World Series with that hit?

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 11:13 PM) PK is a lot worse than Adam Dunn right now. Dunn has 25 homers. Konerko is hitting under .240 with 7 homers. Stop trolling people. If they decide to move in the right field fences to 250 feet all around the majors, PK might be able to hit a few more homers this year.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:12 PM) Why not? It's not like he's got an Adam Dunn batting average. He still gets hits. He is one of those trade deadline signees that MIGHT help a team win it all. Adam Dunn is so much more dangerous than PK at the plate now.

PK's my favorite player of all time, but if Rangers are willing to take on the rest of his contract this year, they can have him without giving anything in return.

This seems more like a waiver deal that could happen

Makes sense with Berkman possibly retiring.

Despite interest from the Red Sox, A's, D'Backs, and Cardinals, the sense is the White Sox are coming down on their asking price for Peavy, tweets Sean McAdam of CSNNE.com.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 07:45 PM) My guy! Hello fitness friend

QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 07:39 PM) I would like to make sure we get David Hochberg back in a trade +1

QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 08:38 PM) Can't trade Peavy for Skaggs and Taillon. Rios and Ramirez for Taillon

QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 07:38 PM) I had somebody tell me they wouldnt trade for Sale because of his win loss record....he was dead serious Stop talking to Hawk

QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 08:36 PM) rios + cash for Heredia and Bell? Yes please

QUOTE (southside hitman @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 08:29 PM) Davidson and Owens are blocked in AZ by Prado and Didi. So possible we could pry them loose for Peavy and someone? Let's just say that if the end of the world happens and Hahn gets Skaggs, Davidson, Owens and Taillon for Peavy, Rios and Ramirez, then Hahn has a job for life here.

QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 08:26 PM) Not concerned about Skaggs? Nope, much better than Holmberg

Skaggs and Owings would be a great start to a trade

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 08:03 PM) Holy s***, Taillon? That's insane. Now everyone's expectations for a return on Rios are going to be way too unrealistic.
