and in other shocking news, soriano isnt getting traded lol @ kaplan trying to act like he has all these sources

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Jul 31, 2012 -> 02:24 PM) I hate when that clown is gooning around in Wrigley in his Cubs jacket, then they try to pass him off as "neutral". Corey McPharin (sp?) is a big Sox fan and the only way you would really know is because he got chocked up when they won the WS and he was talking about his dad, not because he's a meatball like Kaplan. Biggest joke in Chicago media, and that's saying a lot oh and it was an accident when they hit paulie but yet we retaliate because its our captain, he was so pissed and saying how dumb it was. well when someone hits your captain in the face, yea no one is going to take that

QUOTE (daa84 @ Jul 30, 2012 -> 10:21 PM) wow....twins celebrating a bit? they have nothing to play for except to be spoilers.....atleast det lost :/

i was listening to the score and they said hes going through a divorce , wonder if that has affected anything;where he wants to go

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 29, 2012 -> 07:08 PM) What channel is this on? Why am I blacked out on MLB.tv? csn

QUOTE (SOXOBAMA @ Jul 29, 2012 -> 03:12 PM) I hope we get a solid hitter. as has been suggested, reed or bloomquist qould be good

QUOTE (BlackBetsy @ Jul 29, 2012 -> 03:08 PM) Safeco is why he's kept it in the park. Meh peripherals this year - BB/9 is 3.9 this year. Why take on another problem? There have to be better answers out there besides Brandon League. cant be that bad: He lost the closer's job in May, but has pitched to a 1.96 ERA with twice as many strikeouts as walks since the beginning of June. His fastball averages 95.2 mph, according to FanGraphs.

well on mlbrumors they seem to think angels or giants

QUOTE (SOXOBAMA @ Jul 29, 2012 -> 02:51 PM) Matthew Huck ‏@matthewhuck White Sox about to get Brandon League for a minor league outfielder I dont know if this is true or not do we need him? with reed, crain, meyers and jones ?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 28, 2012 -> 11:37 PM) Another idea would be bringing back Uribe... just saw hes owed 16mil the next two year (8+8) ouch

btw, liriano>>>vargas

loved how tex stared at his homerun and started to walk torwards first after hitting a tying hr off padilla(they had issues with each other earlier in the year) cant stand padilla

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 28, 2012 -> 11:18 PM) It's probably his record. He's 3-10. That isn't scary. Hopefully Coop can fix him. liriano would still probably be the indians' second starter

QUOTE (Noonskadoodle @ Jul 28, 2012 -> 11:15 PM) Looking at the Tigers boards & Indians boards they seem to be brushing this trade off & saying it wasnt an upgrade at all. They must not know about the magic Don Cooper has worked in the past. Not to mention in his last 60 innings hasn't Liriano struck out about 70? His stuff is still there. indians? please, their rotation blows. but everyone is biased. had either of those teams landed liriano, theyd be ecstatic.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 28, 2012 -> 11:12 PM) The trade, however, was tough for the teary-eyed Escobar, 23, who was consoled by Orlando Hudson and A.J. Pierzynski after the game. Miguel Olivo cried when he was traded to Seattle. well like they said, good for eduardo though , he'll get a lot of playing time there as apposed to here

QUOTE (scenario @ Jul 28, 2012 -> 11:10 PM) Kenny-speak for "don't call me tonight." hes literally probably thinking "its finally over" as far as getting a sp goes lol

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 28, 2012 -> 11:07 PM) You are right, would be very dumb to mess with the success story that Quintana is. He must remain a starter. and i wouldnt trade floyd. we still need him. if they want , trade him in the offseason, not now

QUOTE (BFirebird @ Jul 28, 2012 -> 11:02 PM) And Baseball Tonight would be drooling over it. These are fantastic moves for what we gave up. Jacob Turner for Anibal Sanchez? Give me Liriano for EE and Hernandez instead. At least Liriano knows how to pitch in AL. I mean really? Turner for Sanchez? well atleast they got infante too lol

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 28, 2012 -> 10:59 PM) If the price was the same, no way. If Humber can be decent, and I was going to start a Phillip Humber is the most worthless pitcher in baseball thread tonight, after seeing what happened after similar threads for Viciedo, Konerko and Beckham have worked in the past, the Sox can go to a 6 man rotation for a while and/or give Sale and Quintana a start off. They needed anther starter. Hopefully Liriano can get the job done. He definitely has the ability, and he's pitching for a contract. but it wasnt lol so liriano>>>

QUOTE (mmmmmbeeer @ Jul 28, 2012 -> 10:54 PM) As odd as it sounds, I would much rather have Liriano over Greinke. i hope he sucks and goes 5-5 in his 10 starts anyways me too because atleast we could resign him and had zero chance of resigning him. he didnt want to come here and dempster either so forget them

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Jul 28, 2012 -> 10:45 PM) Sanchez got shelled today too. i would much rather have liriano over sanchez

really hope that coop can help liriano. his stuff is too good,maybe he saw something he can fix

QUOTE (SOXOBAMA @ Jul 28, 2012 -> 10:37 PM) Scott Merkin ‏@scottmerkin Very emotional Escobar saying good-bye to a lot of players who really respected that young man. He should get more playing time in Minn that sucks, he seemed like a great guy

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jul 28, 2012 -> 10:24 PM) This was his last year of arb. He is FA after this season. yea i misunderstood it. i forgot that free agents at the end of the year are considered 2013 free agents

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jul 28, 2012 -> 10:19 PM) Liriano is a FA after this season. isnt he arb. eligible? 2013 Status 3rd-Year Arb Eligible, Earliest Free Agent: 2013
