1-2, BB, K, 2 RBI

I would definitely not dump guys just to dump their salary

Phegley looked like crap in both ABs today

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 04:34 PM) There's no way. He has no range at second and his arm doesn't translate. It would be a disaster. I'm concerned about his range, esp. to his right, but his arm is fine for the position

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 04:28 PM) I really can't figure out how anyone who watches the Sox a lot thinks Beckham can play SS. We're just spoiled by Alexei. Gordon would hold his own out there

f***ing Gordon

Yeah, why trade your AS closer for the huge contract of Ethier that will net you less production than Rios?

You get to that last spot in negotiations and then you offer 5 mill for that last Kolten Wong-type guy to get put into the deal

Who knows how true that is. Anywho, that is definitely a card I would hold onto until the last moment.

Tekotte has been pretty disappointing as a baserunner

Nice moves by Robin to get Phegs a good matchup

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 03:54 PM) Here comes Corner And now they'll call Collins and I assume we'll call out Phegley once Collins comes in

Here comes Corner

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 03:51 PM) I wonder if that means they think Feliz can step in there... They also have Joakim Soria

Pinch hit Phegley for Flowers?

Gerrit Cole picks nose, eats booger

QUOTE (daggins @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 03:35 PM) Did Johnson get re-injured, or was he just walking too many? He threw 66 pitches, so they might just be working up his pitch counts slowly

Martinez has true ace potential. Wacha's ceiling is closer to mid-rotation than top of the rotation

Nate!

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 03:32 PM) One thing that scares me about rebuilding, the Royals. All those highly ranked prospects suck. Gordon is the best thing they got out of all those top 10 guys and he's about as average as can be. I don't think we'll be going with the Royals type of plan. Our rebuilding of the farm system won't last more than next year's trade deadline, if that long

Tino Martinez resigns as Marlins hitting coach after a series of allegations of abuse. Apparently verbally and physically intimidating players. Jose Canseco announces on twitter that he'd like to be considered for the job.

Nate Jones is nasty. Imagine if he had panned out as a starter with his stuff

I don't really mind Tank swinging 3-0

Daryl Van Schouwen ‏@CST_soxvan 7m How close we are to Peavy trade not known. However, source says Oakland, then Texas are top possibilities.
