QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 03:42 PM) Gordon, Moustakas, Myers, Hosmer and Cain. One of them is tearing it up. The rest are average to garbage. It's a numbers game, the more great prospects you have the better odds that someone turns to be a star. Add 2-3 more really talented guys to the system and there's a better chance that one or some of these guys will turn out to be solid major leaguers.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 01:33 PM) Just outside of Nashville for me. I have spent quite a bit of time there and love it. My work would need to happen out of the West End. I haven't traveled to too many places in my life but Nashville would definitely be my number 1 for the places I've been.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 03:13 PM) I have a hard time fathoming the Cardinals are willing to give up three of their top five prospects in any deal. Just not Cardinals' MO. They promote from within and utilize young players' cheap contracts. I'm sure they're discussing a combination of those players, no chance we're going to get all 3.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 02:40 AM) Shut him down until 2014, this POS lineup doesn't deserve him. But that stunts his growth. Wouldn't be a good move.

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Jul 27, 2013 -> 10:46 PM) The way Alex Rios has been treated makes me really dislike some Sox fans. I was born and raised south of Madison. Some of the s*** I read really pisses me off. Great site. Really appreciate some of the posters, but the mouth breathers f***jng suck. They were probably the same b****es calling Derrick Rose a p****. Chicago tough, right? I don't get it.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 27, 2013 -> 10:23 PM) I wish Mariotti had not been such a tool. We could use a columnist like him in town who bashes people. Can you imagine the material he woulda had to work with the last couple years? I realize he's pathetic as far as his personal life, but we could use some loudmouth columnist who bashes players/managers, etc. He's a pathetic person and was a coward of a sports writer as well.

QUOTE (Palehosefan @ Jul 27, 2013 -> 09:47 PM) Who was the last Sox prospect to finish with more walks than k's? Jeremy Reed almost a decade ago? Why do you have to ruin this.

QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Jul 27, 2013 -> 09:44 PM) Appears that Baltimore's system is very pitching heavy. I'd think Hahn would be pushing for impact position players, so I'm not sure this is a good match unless Baltimore gives up Gausman or Bundy (which they shouldn't). What does everyone think Bundy's value is after the surgery?

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 27, 2013 -> 09:18 PM) Hawkins 0-4, 2 k's. Buddy Bell thinks his 18 HR, 50+ RBI are just fine though. Beck 6 shutout innings, 4 ks Just promote Courtney to the Sox to see if he can strike out every at bat. QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 27, 2013 -> 09:29 PM) Semien 1-1 HR, 4 walks That's just beautiful.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 27, 2013 -> 08:49 PM) I'd be a hell of a lot more mad if this was last season. Now, it's just 2013 White Sox baseball and one game closer to the deadline and an eventual top 5 pick. Yup, that stuff just becomes entertaining at this point. I feel bad for Chris but losses are good.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jul 27, 2013 -> 08:47 PM) Keppinger hit a line drive to right that Lough made a great diving catch on, Rios went halfway down the line and didn't tag. It was the tying run. Gillaspie struck out, game over That sounds about right. Thanks.

For those of us not watching, what did Rios do?

QUOTE (bbilek1 @ Jul 27, 2013 -> 08:28 PM) Sale - 9 IP, ER, 7 H, 1 BB, 7 K. Ya but he's going to get an L. No will to win.

So when the Sox can't score tonight and Sale goes to 6-10 does that mean he doesn't have #TWTW? I think so.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Jul 27, 2013 -> 02:51 PM) I've been sitting home all day, checking sox talk, waiting for someone to make the Boone Logan-Matt Lindstrom comparison. Everytime I see him pitch, I think of Boone Logan. Ha that made me laugh.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 27, 2013 -> 01:04 PM) That's fine. Target someone at low-A ball and see where they wind up in 4 years. Yup. No reason to hang onto him, try to get a low level, high ceiling prospect that maybe has struggled a bit so far that makes him expendable. No reason not to.

What kind of flower doesn't sleep at night? The day-zzz

QUOTE (winninguglyin83 @ Jul 26, 2013 -> 09:28 PM) Overtaking Sanchez as Sox top infield prospect? Id say yes and by a large margin.

QUOTE (winninguglyin83 @ Jul 26, 2013 -> 08:28 PM) Semien also playing third. Worth noting? Might be nothing huge but definitely note worthy. If he can play a few positions it might expedite his promotion to the majors if anything.

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Jul 26, 2013 -> 03:56 PM) I didn't realize how many players on the Bears are going to be free agents. Tillman, Jennings, Melton, Cutler, Wright, Wootton and Gould. Yikes. How many of those guys would you really want re-signed right now? Peanut is old, Jennings has had one good season, Melton is already over paid, Jay is going to get an extension one way or another, Wright and Wootton...possibly if they're cheap but it's not like they're irreplaceable and do you really want to pay Robbie Gould 4 million a year?

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 26, 2013 -> 01:55 PM) That doesn't bode well for the 2013 season. Or players will play their ass off in a contract year. I think Emery is doing the right thing here.

Ya I think the new regime has done a terrific job so far but this trade isn't part of that. As I said before, I think this deal was made for Soriano and nothing else.

I enjoyed this:

Some think Peavy is going to bring a ton, other analysts don't. I'm sure there is so much misinformation out there that nobody knows. Take everything with a grain of salt. The only analyst I trust is Wite.
