i will be happy when Reed starts nailing down saves without making them interesting. Loved Liriano tonite, he looked really good. AJ was nails tonite

QUOTE (sunofgold @ Jul 31, 2012 -> 03:21 PM) Couldn't we have matched this offer? Hope Hempster does bad with the Ringers. what part of "HE DOES NOT WANT TO PLAY FOR THE WHITE SOX" doesnt make sense to you? Let me put it in SOG format Ryansterski doesnt want to play for fly snazzysox

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 31, 2012 -> 02:59 PM) Rosenthal said no from the yankees QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jul 31, 2012 -> 01:34 PM) source says dempster changed his mind 1 minute later, told #cubs he was blindsided by finding out about trade by #agent, will now veto #yankees trade LMAO i was kidding

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 31, 2012 -> 02:01 PM) Sounds like Rip Hamilton would be a nice fit for Rose Maybe in 2004. When he didnt take 70 percent of the season off due to strained lady parts

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Jul 31, 2012 -> 01:32 PM) Ty Lawson is an absolute beast, you're crazy if you don't want him. He shoots 40% from 3, his efficiency is elite, he can handle the ball and take over games, he's athletic and young He likes the ball in his hand? so what, he'll learn to play off it. No big deal. The upsides totally outweigh the negatives elite, athletic, and young. Need youtube

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Jul 31, 2012 -> 01:34 PM) So it's okay for a poster to go off on some conspiracy laden tangent as if the Sox are so inept that they're not trying to protect their most valuable asset, but it's not okay to tell a crybaby to quit crying? No, it isnt. So stop insulting people.

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Jul 31, 2012 -> 12:56 PM) Oh my, really? We weren't a very athletic team on offense in 2010-2011, we had no guards that could run the floor with Derrick. Zero, none, nada. That's probably why we rely on our center to run the floor a lot of the times. I remember thats how he rolled his ankle. He's a C running the floor and trying to play PG at the same time. Im sure with this ATHLETIC bench that we have acquired, Noah will no longer have to run the floor and he will never be subjected to rolling his ankle ever again.

QUOTE (balfanman @ Jul 31, 2012 -> 10:58 AM) I don't really want to come off as being down on our pitching staff. I think that we have a good starting staff, maybe the best as a group in the A. L., but right now it just looks like a train wreck waiting to happen. I hope that Quintana & Sale get over their respective "dead arms", Peavy never has his "dead arm". Humber & Floyd pitch as well as they are capable of pitching, Lariano pitches like a man on a mission (for a new contract), and Danks has a miraculous healing happen and pitches like an "ACE". Wouldn't it be great to be arguing 2 months from from now on which ones of the 7 deserve to be in the playoff rotation more than the others. see, I dont think the wheels are falling off on everyone else like you do, but I keep seeing Danks getting mentioned. He is not coming back, the Sox arent saying it outright, but they have already thrown the words "surgery possible" out there, and every time he takes one step forward he takes three back. They have already taken steps to cover his spot in the rotation starting with Liriano

QUOTE (balfanman @ Jul 31, 2012 -> 09:07 AM) Better than those guys when? When those guys are "on", or close to it? Or better than those guys right now? It may not take much more than a corpse to pitch better than some of the performances lately. I don't know who as I really don't follow other teams that closely. There are what, about 12 - 13 teams that would consider themselves out of it by now. There must be at least one of them with a #3 - 4 starter that could be gotten. These guys would be far from "ACE" quality, but maybe good enough to keep their team in the game for a few weeks. I know you are all about doubting the pitchers, but Floyd has been pretty good his last six starts. his WHIP has been high because of a lot of walks, but I think his ERA is something like 1.60

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 31, 2012 -> 08:12 AM) Or he spells his name wrong... or likes the mary jane

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 30, 2012 -> 04:44 PM) Didn't Jackson's yearly ERA drop from >5 to I believe he flirted with a few no-no's in his first couple starts too

QUOTE (Brian @ Jul 31, 2012 -> 06:19 AM) Are people actually excited about Nate Robinson? Sometimes it's hard to reads tone on the boards. And great atheletes don't mean they are great basketball players. Eddie Robinson was a great athlete but a crap bball player. There is a laundry list of guys like that. Pretty much all basketball players are great athletes. There are a few(eddy curry, cough cough) that manage to stay in the league with below average athleticism(for an NBA playe), but even those guys could run just about any guy on this board off a court.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jul 30, 2012 -> 10:27 PM) There is a reason I follow this guy on Twitter, I just can't remember why. I feel like he MAY have scooped the Danks extension before anyone else. Let me dig deep in to his tweets. It was because of the Rios thing last season. I dont think he scooped Danks

that guy swore up and down that the Brewers wanted Rios last season

Maholm and Johnson to Braves

Soto to Rangers

Both players caught saying good bye to teammates

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Jul 30, 2012 -> 07:01 PM) This is the part you come in and start making unrealistic suggestions for what we should have done? Nah, this is the part where I let you continue to make unrealistic suggestions about what this roster is capable of.

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Jul 30, 2012 -> 06:51 PM) It means players who can do things Carlos Boozer and Kurt Thomas can't. Hell of a bar you set there

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Jul 30, 2012 -> 05:59 PM) Marco Bellinili is a better athlete than Korver. Butler is a better athlete than Brewer. Nate Robinson is a better athlete than Lucas. The improvement is gradual but enough to make an impact on games. I mean, we have actual guys that can execute a fast break now! A while ago we had nobody except Rose who would be good on a break. This word you keep saying, I do not think it means what you think it means

QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ Jul 30, 2012 -> 04:42 PM) If you go right from Sale down to Jones, then that in and of itself shows how minimally the farm system has been producing. Jones has not done a ton yet. Teams that rely on their own homegrown talent being in their own uniforms eventually do have far better talent than this current White Sox organization, so Cameron's point is valid. Except it isnt only Sale to Jones. Reed, Axelrod, Septimo, Santiago have all made major contributions to the team. I guess you could consider Quintana as well

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jul 30, 2012 -> 04:32 PM) The Bulls have apparently signed Nate Robinson. dont panic. this roster is younger and more athletic

This doesnt bother me. The guy is mr two outs, two walks, mystery result.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jul 30, 2012 -> 01:33 PM) Thought Liriano would pitch today. So when does Liriano debut? Wednesday? No, Tuesday. Make sure to adjust your fantasy lineup accordingly
