Sore losers alert!

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 10:04 AM) Even if you have no faith in Montas he certainly has more value than a 2-month rental. Trade him to get a bat locked up beyond this year if you're going to move him. Rentals are going for a lot.

Ya we have an awful rf right now, that's not a problem at all. WHERE WOULD HE PLAY?!?

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 09:56 AM) Frankie Montas for 2 months of Justin Upton to hope for a 1 game playoff? Way too much. I'll take my chances. I have no faith in Frankie to be a mainstay in our future rotation so I'll take my 2 month rental over what I see as a future reliever.

If Montas can be the centerpiece of an Upton deal then I'd trade him in a heartbeat.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 09:19 AM) I don't believe last year was in his head. Agreed.

I like how Jackie basically became the leader of the 2nd group out of no where.

Real close again.

Laughs out loud.

That 3-0 pitch though...

That Panda ab was something.

Sale's leg will be worse tomorrow than today. Hopefully he has Derrick Rose's bike in the clubhouse to keep it from stiffening up during the game.

Just good hitting by Ortiz.

Just pissed him off.

No no no

I got a feeling we're going to end up with Upton. Just a hunch.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 12:46 PM) I don't understand the heat here and I actually think this is a pretty fair trade for both side and I probably would be fully okay with that trade. Might be because I don't think highly of Avi and I highly doubt Hawkins puts it together. I'd do that trade in an absolute heartbeat.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 12:42 PM) I think the biggest reason it is quiet is because the Sox weren't exactly in buy mode a couple of days ago. Exactly.

That's still getting the Jays number 1 prospect + for 2 months of Price. A pretty good haul imo.

Pretty good chance if we make the one game wild card that Sale wouldn't be pitching it.

If we're willing to eat Danks' contract then there's no reason EJ shouldn't be the 5th starter, screw trading for one.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 10:11 AM) Boston has looked like a team that has quit. Not disagreeing with that but there's absolutely no guarantees in baseball, we can absolutely lose this game even though it's a mismatch on paper.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 10:13 AM) People arguing Gomez over CarGo are nuts lol. When healthy CarGo is a superstar. Gomez is not. According to what?

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 09:26 AM) This game feels like as close to a guaranteed win as you can get in baseball, we can't afford to blow this. That's why it worries me. Anyone remember Contreras pitching against the Pirates in 06? That might have been the biggest guarantee in baseball history and we lost.

We're not allowed to trade anyone under the age of 25 for anyone over the age of 25, doesn't matter who the players are.
