Anyone worth going after?
QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Jul 5, 2013 -> 04:52 PM) How did you come to that conclusion? I thought they got rid of him because he was baseball stupid even though I liked him. Who did they trade him for? nobody important...

There's a chance there with a good throw.

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 5, 2013 -> 07:18 PM) Anderson singles in his first AB. Nice to see a first rounder getting knocks consistently. Reminds me of Courtney Haw--- oh wait, that was last year

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 5, 2013 -> 07:26 PM) Remember when the Sox removed Santiago for Axelrod? By far the worst personnel decision this year. Luckily, Axelrod pitched over his head for much of the time Hector was out of the rotation

I don't hate Axelrod, but I don't think he's going to be a White Sox for much longer than the next calendar year or so. I don't think he'll be a starter of ours a couple months from now.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 5, 2013 -> 06:55 PM) DL unfortunately I meant more along the lines of after the trade deadline when one of Peavy/Danks is likely to be gone. I don't think the groin should keep him out too long.

NBA Thread 2013-2014
I think there is a tremendous risk in acquiring Dwight, but I sure can't blame Houston for taking it. If it doesn't work out as planned, they aren't going to be worse off than they were before.

Healthy Eating Thread
Yeah I think it can be a successful means to lose weight. The trick is being able to stick to it while it is going on (especially difficult at first, many folks I know take fat burners to curb appetite to enable this sort of restriction) and then being able to keep your progress once you stop, because some people will simply binge once they are allowed to have carbs again. I would suggest not doing it for more than a month at a time and I would suggest doing a carb "refeed" once a week.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 5, 2013 -> 05:55 PM) We're going to have to sit through Cubs post-game while our game starts. Ugh. I've noticed we do that to the Cubs when they play on the West Coast too. I'm happy for both teams to give up their post-game shows if it conflicts with the next game. ...I guess not?

People with poor insulin sensitivity will see especially good results with keto compared to more balanced plans. People that have been overweight or obese may be permanently desensitized to insulin FWIW

Managing a Rebuilding Team Wouldn't Scare Ventura
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 5, 2013 -> 04:41 PM) I missed the game but supposedly he had quite the baserunning blunder last week in that 18-10 game or whatever it wound up being. Yeah, he was benched the next game. RV talked about it. The next game he went out and had a good day at the plate and a made a couple diving catches in the next game. My guess is that this a planned day off because he's been looking a hair better lately.

Managing a Rebuilding Team Wouldn't Scare Ventura
QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 5, 2013 -> 04:11 PM) I know you're looking at the Sox competing next year and surely I'd love for that to happen but chances are it won't. Just too many holes to fill and question marks. After the trade deadline chances are the only thing the Sox will have going for them is starting pitching. Everything else will a big IF and 3 year deals to 30YO+ players shouldn't be considered unless the Sox pick up some sure things at the trade deadline ,which likely isn't happening. I think the White Sox will/should plan to definitely compete in 2015. This means you start adding pieces next year, but not all of them. Next year is one of those "if everything goes right" years. You fill a hole or two with veterans that you think are worth building around, keep some decent players from this year (like every player that hasn't yet reached free agency). Then you can roll the dice with guys in a couple spots - unless there is a total disaster in the second half, I think Phegley is a shoo-in as a guy you let develop into next season. Maybe, if we're lucky, somebody like Trayce might look ready for the outfield. We'll have to see. Might get somebody in trade that deserves a shot to develop.
