Is that C. Jones guy on Rome any good? Seems old to be playing in A ball

They're expecting another big front to hit Cleveland soon. My uneducated prediction is an 8:45 CST first pitch.

QUOTE (sircaffey @ Jul 24, 2011 -> 12:27 AM) What's wrong with B grade prospects? Getting past the fact Carlos is a poor defender and has sustained an injury in pretty much every year of his professional career, are going to be tough hurtles for a team to get over in order to offer elite talent. Plain and simple, he should have way more value than Beltran in my opinion.

I really hope we don't have to trade Quentin, as at least he's productive (despite being streaky). Be a real indictment on Kenny if we have to trade one of our few productive players just to clear payroll so we can hang on to the albatross contracts of Peavy, Rios and Dunn.

QUOTE (spiderman @ Jul 23, 2011 -> 11:48 PM) I think you can get a B level prospect, but I doubt anyone is giving away their top of the line guys for either. People really underrate Quentin on here, jeez

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 23, 2011 -> 11:05 PM) EJ and CQ are playing there last full weekend in a Sox Uni. Insight or just a guess? I don't think Quentin is going anywhere.

Pierre has had far from a NICE season. Sorry greg

There's one..need 4 of our next 5

Dunn's timing looked good all night. Good swings, just matter of him squaring the ball up and remembering he's Adam Dunn and not Mark Teahen.

Where the hell did his power go?

Nice catch Juan! Hell of a start by Gavin

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Jul 23, 2011 -> 03:07 AM) yep no need for Floyd to stay in with the way the pen is pitching and knowing we will not score again More like in a 3 run game with 2 on, you want to avoid the home run. IIRC, Santana hasn't homered from right side since opening day.

I don't care what happens here, but not bringing in Thornton is ridiculous.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jul 23, 2011 -> 01:36 AM) 2nd time he's chased that slider that was never a strike. And Dunn actually forces a pitching change -- WOW! Looks like Konerko could have used the ASB to relax

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Jul 23, 2011 -> 01:22 AM) The ball just dies off Teahen's bat. He constantly hits balls that I think are going to get out and just die in the air. So funny, as I always said he would have been more fitted to hit in the 50s and 60s prior to weight lifting, PEDS, etc.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jul 23, 2011 -> 01:20 AM) Mike Caruso... Royce Clayton.... Mark Teahen.... (working on my most hated Sox hall of shame list) How is Rios not #1? Teahen at least was kind enough to get injured last year.

Phil Hughes struggled big time tonight. Can't hurt Jackson/Dank trade value.

Gavin!

Yeah...don't trade that man! Way to go Quentin

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 23, 2011 -> 02:02 AM) Is it me or has Alexei been skunks*** for the last two months? Batting average fading quickly.

Why do our hitters look so stunned that they're getting a 2 strike offspeed pitch?

QUOTE (Marty34 @ Jul 23, 2011 -> 01:56 AM) Can't DL Dunn. MLBPA will file a grievance causing the Sox will be fined a bazilionty dollars. Even with the knee issue he has? Anyways, he's looked good tonight so that's not really an issue. I think there's a much better chance Dunn turns it around than Rios

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 23, 2011 -> 01:55 AM) Trade Quentin, trade Jackson, trade ohman, listen on Konerko, Buehrle, try to gt someone to take on AJs 2012 and the rest of Pierre this year. I think Pierre could be an easy guy to trade during waiver period. Some team would definitely take a chance on him as a bench player.

QUOTE (beckham15 @ Jul 23, 2011 -> 01:54 AM) Fire Ozzie Trade Jackson Trade Quentin (get something for him now while we can and build for a future) Ozzie won't be fired during year. Keep him until offseason and see if you can get a mediocre prospect from Marlins for him. I'm so against trading Quentin unless you get a big time package for him.

Sweet play by Gavin!
