QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 5, 2013 -> 08:45 PM) 2012 was a close to a "team-wide" collapse as I can recall seeing. I think 2013 is worse considering we had expectations and the team played so differently than 2012.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 9, 2013 -> 08:46 PM) Just because Keith Law says it doesn't make it so. This guy has comparable numbers to a bunch of people who are getting penciled in as starting shortstops. He's very young, he's been pushed up aggressively, he supposedly has really solid fielding tools, and he has a real solid speed game. I'd say there's a decent chance he looks like a solid player in a year or two, and a decent chance he's a utility guy. I'll take that, there's some real upside here. I think it is disappointing myself. If our return is someone who might be a utility IF'er in the future. How many utility Infielders do we need?

It is listed at 2:05 PM MDT on my schedule for the Fox Game of the week. Maybe it's regional only-don't know

QUOTE (chw42 @ Aug 8, 2013 -> 09:09 PM) What did Alex Rios do to you? Like seriously. I'd like to know. Because your personal vendetta against him is hilarious and confusing. I am not sure Gregg likes anyone LOL

QUOTE (JoshPR @ Aug 8, 2013 -> 09:08 PM) LOL Rogers already hinting at Hahn to save money to go after cano, granderson or ellsbury I read it and laughed too

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 8, 2013 -> 08:59 PM) I love how everyone thinks the White Sox should get something valuable back for Alex now. He always was valuable. His stats are good and he has helped the Sox win. If we let him go on this waiver claim then we deserve at a minimum a good prospect in return

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Aug 8, 2013 -> 05:46 PM) So the Sox didn't pull him back? You will know in 72 hours

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 8, 2013 -> 07:59 PM) I don't see why the Sox should send any money. Even though I feel he is grossly overpaid, a lot of people on here are indicating his salary isn't totally out of line for huge-market teams. If we can't get a "great" prospect for Rios, then take 2 lower level young, average players with a bit of an upside and call it a trade. As long as Texas pays the whole thing. All baseball players are overpaid. Salary is not the issue. The return in prospects is and it needs to be good for the Sox. If Texas doesn't want to offer quality then there is no need to do a trade. We have the off season

Dunn knew how to handle Mo. He knew we needed just one run to tie and not to try and do too much. It was a fantastic series for the Sox

Baseball on TV for the Out-of-Towner Sox fan

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Aug 8, 2013 -> 12:59 PM) Well, I guess depending on your income and family situation, $100 means different things to different people. If I were single, had plenty of time to watch baseball, and nobody else to spend my money on, I'd have paid it. Of course when I was in that situation I lived in Chicago and didn't need it. Now I have 3 family members demanding my time and money, so $100 for baseball on my computer doesn't make sense. Hickory is right and I don't like sitting in front of my computer all night. But, I might go to that MLB Extra Innings cable site next year -

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Aug 6, 2013 -> 08:21 PM) I will add that I have no problem that people do want to watch them. This is still our favorite team and we want to see them do well at the end of the day, and watching them and seeing progress happen before our eyes is always a nice thing, and there are some pieces in place that will be on the next winning team (which seems to have become the catchphrase around here), and one of the all time great franchise players is in his twlight years, if not year. There are reasons to tune in. Still, it's a bit of a task to get excited about this bunch. Sale is good at least. You are a either a fair weather fan, or a 100%! solid fan trying your best to keep from crying Just accept the season for what it is and you will feel better. Nothing better than a win or two to get you into a better mood and then it's the end of the season and we can plan for 2014. Look at this way: at the end of the baseball season there is one winner and 29 losers so we aren't alone -
