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.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 25, 2013 -> 09:15 PM) 0-5, 2k for Hawkins Hey at least that's only a 40 percent k rate! Obviously Rienzo has been ridiculous as of late but I'm curious if there was a reason he got off to such a bad start this season?

Did you guys know that Derrick Rose is the best player in the NBA?

QUOTE (Brian @ Jul 25, 2013 -> 09:01 PM) The fans voting the 3rd nominee is dumb. Leave America out of it. It taints things. Aaryn's HOH means she's safe, that's it. Fans will put up Gina Marie and she'll be voted out, which is fine cuz I hate her. I don't like the MVP to begin with. Anywho, I can definitely see Howard or Spencer being the goner this week.

Gotta love the twists and turns of big brother.

QUOTE (Noonskadoodle @ Jul 25, 2013 -> 02:58 PM) Tigers team that had DOZENS of players using it....Yet none of those teams ever finished over .500. Man did they really suck at the game of baseball. :lol: I'm sure every team back than had dozens of players using though. They were absolutely horrendous but they were still horrendous on a semi equal playing field I'm sure.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 25, 2013 -> 07:31 PM) Olney says they will receive a "lower-tier pitching prospect" and "pay nearly $25 million" which is almost his entire deal Ya, the Garza deal was great for the Cubs, this deal just seems like it was made in respect for Soriano, it does nothing for the Cubs.

So Robbie Gould not too smart.

How does Peavy not have the reputation that Garza does? I don't get that.

QUOTE (JPN366 @ Jul 25, 2013 -> 09:34 AM) If it's true that the Red Sox are offering Middlebrooks for Peavy, then why the f*** hasn't Hahn pulled the trigger????? Because that'd be no bueno.

Good job Mexico.

QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Jul 24, 2013 -> 10:34 PM) The way things have gone I fully expect Peavy's arm to fall off pitching tomorrow. Ya pretty much.

QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Jul 24, 2013 -> 03:00 PM) Haha, I was just on my way over here to break the unfortunate news but ss2k5 beat me to it. Yep, my road ends here. I just wanted to say thanks to all of ST for having my back throughout this entire deal. I don't think I could ever repay you guys. If there's a silver lining in this, I get to spend the last part of my summer in Chicago & I get to go into U.S. Cellular Field to catch a game live. If the Sox all of a sudden go on a massive winning streak, I will take total blame for it. Damn. Well welcome home.

QUOTE (farmteam @ Jul 24, 2013 -> 01:37 PM) Last night I was in left center, a line drive was hit right at me but a little short. I knocked it down but didn't field it cleanly. When I tried to pick it up, I was in such a rush that I literally spun around in a circle three times before I actually regained my balance/composure and picked up the ball. It was impressive. Gotta stop watching the Sox, man.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jul 24, 2013 -> 01:16 PM) Is Xander Bogaerts just out of the question completely? Most likely.
