QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 01:48 PM) Hasn't history shown that deadline deals rarely pay off? KC did get Cueto and Zobrist, probably about as good as they can do, at the cost of 5 arms. If they don't win the WS, they pretty much shot their wad. After losing game 7 year, I do not blame them for going for it.

NFL upholds Tom Brady 4 game suspension...............I am sure he will sue now. The league has upheld Tom Brady's four-game suspension. After a summer of waffling, commissioner Roger Goodell has decided to hold firm on Brady's shockingly-severe punishment. It means the matter is now headed to federal court, where Brady will sue the league. Brady will reportedly "seek an injunction that will allow him to play while his case works its way through the courts." Buried in the league's statement was confirmation that Brady destroyed his cellphone. Reading the reports, "Deflategate" sometimes comes across as a matter of national security instead of the silly sports controversy that it is. As it stands right now, Jimmy Garoppolo will be starting against the Steelers, Bills, Jaguars and Cowboys. Source: Mike Garafolo on Twitter

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 11:36 AM) Are they getting desperate? I think they will overpay for a pitcher whether its Shark or Ross from SD. Hoping Shark obviously so we can plug in EJ, but I really think we can land one of Norris/Pompey for Shark if Toronto gets desperate enough. I have to figure EJ is in Boston just in case. Unless he is called up I do not believe Sox can do that.

QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 11:28 AM) Yeah the Santiago-Eaton trade worked out fairly well for both teams. Hopefully the Jays give in and trade for Shark before the game. Who wants to take bets on it? I think he'll still be here. Shark will start tonight getting too late too get EJ in town.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 09:10 AM) This really tempers my excitement about dealing with the Jays. Reid-Foley and Pentecost are still there, but would the Jays really unload that many good prospects in the same week? The smaller their supply, the less likely they would be to agree to overpay, which is what it may take to pry Shark on a surging Sox club. I agree the Jays without Hoffman not that attractive now.

QUOTE (GreatScott82 @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 09:36 AM) Maybe Larry King actually got a tip from someone in the Dodger's upper management. I strongly believe that the White Sox and Dodgers will make a blockbuster deal soon. I think the moving parts will be more than just Puig and Quintana, but those will be the main pieces in this deal. Even if we can't get Seager (sigh!), I would LOVE to acquire Austin Barnes as well. I much prefer a Dodger deal now that Hoffman was traded by Jays.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 04:41 AM) I know how to make our champion look strong! Have him tap out to the weakest looking submission move ever on live free TV!!!! SuperCena at all cost.

Hoffman being in Tulo deal is a bummer.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 12:33 AM) Dodgers are trying to trade Guerrero, any interest? Guerrero has a clause in his contract that says he can become a free agent at the end of the season if he's traded. Pass

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 12:21 AM) Shark for Hoffman straight up would be a great trade for the Sox. I just have a gut feeling Hoffman is key to a Shark deal. I would love it to go down.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 12:17 AM) Exactly. What's the point of being GM if you're not the one in charge. It's an empty title. Ever heard the phrase too many cooks spoil the broth ? It has and still is the KW show. I have said Hahn has never really been allowed to do his job

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 12:12 AM) If that's the case , Hahn may resign out of frustration if he can't implement his own ideas on effecting changes. Every move Hahn wants to make he has to clear through KW it would get old fast.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 12:09 AM) Toronto might have given up the prospects the Sox wanted in the Tulo trade. Don't know who the minor leaguers are yet . True should be interesting who Colorado got.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 12:09 AM) I don't want to deal Quintana because I don't trust that Kenny would get the right return for him. I have no faith in KW as a talent evaluator

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 12:07 AM) I was just thinking KW and Hahn have to be butting heads right now a lot. Who's in charge here ? But some on here say KW not involved much, I say BS he never is not involved.

QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Jul 27, 2015 -> 11:55 PM) Deals for Shark to TOR and SF in place. The deals are sitting there. KW is still "all in" on '16 and Rick is not so there's that drama right now. Being all in for 2016 would have no impact on Shark deal, he is going to free agency regardless.

I think Shark to Toronto in a deal that Sox get Hoffman with 2 others.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 27, 2015 -> 11:49 PM) LeTroy Hawkins going to Jays too Ha how sad

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 27, 2015 -> 11:40 PM) Maybe Reyes is in the deal ? Reyes owed a lot still I am surprised......................Tulo on turf makes no sense.

Where is Reyes going to play?

QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Jul 27, 2015 -> 11:20 PM) @philgrogers: If @Dodgers really make Puig available, per an @BNightengale report, White Sox would explore. But Abreu, Puig are not especially close. I only care about on the field could care less if they are not good friends.

Cena's nose is broke dam, Rollins high knee nailed him flush.

Finally Sox win 10-8

DeAza never had this good a ab in a Sox jersey.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 27, 2015 -> 09:59 PM) Where's Feeky at? He should be in his glory right now.
