But you are right anything can happen in the playoffs. Why you keep saying NLDS? I wonder if the haul that Beltran got has something to do with the raised price of CQ.

If this stuff being bantered around the media is true than Q has to be gone at the end of this weekend, just has to. And as others have said, throw Rios in right until Dayan is ready to go.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jul 28, 2011 -> 11:01 AM) LOL, WHAT? Is that a joke? f***ing s***, I would be fine if Kenny through in Matt Thornton and any prospect not named Viciedo/Reed if it meant Brown, Singleton, AND Cosart. That's beyond video-game level trade. Ya, that was pretty much my first reaction. This has to be false and if it isn't, why the f*** wasn't this made?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 08:27 PM) They don't make the playoffs if Jake is not developing back towards 100+ pitches. We have like 27 good relievers now, we can afford to pull Jake after 5 for 2 months.

QUOTE (docsox24 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 08:59 PM) Seriously? Please give it up with peavy. He is not getting his stuff back. He is no longer an ace and I want him nowhere near starting a playoff game Danks Mark Floyd Humber I actually agree with you but he's shown through 70 pitches that he can still be a very effective pitcher. Maybe(huge maybe) if he can build up some arm strength he can at least be a viable option come playoff time. Also, the one guarantee if we did indeed make the playoffs is that Ozzie would not throw Danks and Mark back to back.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 08:41 PM) It's only been two starts, but JD has been electric since coming off the DL. If keeps this up, Ozzie would have a tough decision there. He has the track record to be the one guy that could possibly take over for Buehrle, I completely agree.

Mark Buehrle is the pretty obvious answer at this point.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 01:50 PM) Your twitter account was sometimes humorous, so thanks. This is literally exactly what I was going to post.

Today is giving me a headache.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 11:28 AM) For this year. Going forward? I smell an early 90's like run by them. This is no hyperbole. AA shredded two of the top 5 worst contracts in baseball, fattened up their system, and got a stud 5-tool CF for two relievers and a #4 starter. He's done this in like two years. No chance.

QUOTE (spiderman @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 12:18 PM) So, Frasor is a very good lefty reliever, correct? He's under contract for how long and for how much? The White Sox now have a 5 man rotation going forward. Is Zach Stewart a starting pitching prospect? How highly rated is he? Where does he project for the White Sox? Frasor is a righty.

"Well it's not my money," this is why people care when bad contracts are given out because eventually we have to salary dump instead of take on a very good talent.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 11:59 AM) Give me a break, 90% of us know who Rasmus is. On this board? More than 90 percent, I guarantee that.

QUOTE (Real @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 11:56 AM) one person mentions colby rasmus and all of the sudden the entire board, most which had little to no idea who Rasmus even WAS goes apes***, lol Really?

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 10:59 PM) Yes, and I bet they would. Only a really dumb organization(hello White Sox) would trade for a player with the intention of re-trading that player with in the week if they didn't already have a deal in place.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 09:54 PM) What do the Jays gain from this if Frasor and Jackson are both Type B. They are taking on a boatload of salary too. Neither team really gains anything. This trade makes 0 sense.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 10:51 PM) Jason Frasor is pretty good. He can help them this year. Not only that, they dump Mark Teahen. I can't believe your boy may make his best trade in a while and you are thinking about tearing down your shrine to him. Probably because it'd be a pure salary dump and a horrendous trade(unless that prospect is legit).

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 10:50 PM) No, I'm saying that if anyone was to know of this going down before it's announced, it's the players involved. Frasor finds out, tells a friend/family member they're coming home...and maybe bucket is that guy. Bucket's been a legit poster on this site and has never posted crap like this before. Fair enough.

Unless this involves Matty being moved for Rasmus...? Who knows, I wont believe this until it's confirmed so I'll just keep on speculating as well.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 09:47 PM) bingo! Are you confirming this?

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 10:36 PM) Frasor went to SIU, yes? Ya.

This team is so unlikeable.

This better be a legit prospect

QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 06:18 PM) I have a hard time believing Alex would be in the lineup tonight if they had plans of dumping him tomorrow, Correct. If someone was traded from our big club it's EJax or Thornton, no one that's currently still in the lineup.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 07:10 PM) IF he isn't being called up tonight, couldn't that just mean, he's being called up "tomorrow"? I suppose he could be getting dealt, but for what? Him alone isn't exactly going to land us anything that would make this club much better. Throw in for a bigger deal including EJax or Matty? Who knows, all crazy speculation at this point.
