QUOTE (Frank_Thomas35 @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 10:21 PM) Is it odd that there is nothing out there about what our plans may be? Is it a sign that we don't know what to do becUse the fact that there really is a lot of supposed friction in the FO? Or is it how Hahn does it when negotiating? Or do you all think they stand pat and let these guys play out the season? Even the normal inside guys on here are quiet. Just odd to me I guess with two days left. The Guillens were the obvious source of the White Sox leaks. Ever since they left, you barely hear anything out of the Sox camp, which pretty well confirms that. We won't know anything about the Sox unless the other team puts it out there. The best you can hope is to read between the lines of what the beat writers are being fed to say.

QUOTE (ron883 @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 06:50 PM) is Saladino all of the sudden not a shortstop? People seem to completely forget that for whatever reason. I'd wager money that Saladino is more productive than Alexei next year at SS. I'd wager today that Alexei's option is picked up and he is the starting SS on opening day 2016, barring an injury.

Find an SP500 fund if you want instant diversification. If you want to go straight into stocks, buy QQQ. Start there.

QUOTE (Lip Man 1 @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 03:24 PM) I'd be surprised if the Sox picked up his 10 million dollar option next season. He's 35 or so (being born in Cuba who knows for sure...) and is clearly slowing down. I'd have to think you could find a stop gap shortstop for one year (until Anderson is ready) for less then 10 million and use whatever money you save on another position. Mark With the price of SS's and the lack of them out there, the only way Alexei doesn't get picked up is if he completely falls apart the rest of this year.

QUOTE (shipps @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 03:15 PM) LOL The Tigers have been all over the place publicly in what they are and are not doing. The have had more in and outs than the hokey pokey.

If anyone leaves, I think is obviously Kenny. He really seemed pissed off about not being able to go after the TOR President position, so I don't think he is as content as many people think he is. If Rick Hahn wanted to leave, he would have done so already at any of the other many chances he has had to do so.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 02:52 PM) Bowden says the Tigers are now listening to offers on Cespedes and the Twins are a possible destination. If they're willing to trade in division that could be something to look at, maybe. If fans have been upset at the Sox for mixed messages, I can only imagine how they would have handled being Tigers fans the last week or so.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 02:27 PM) Alexei Ramirez has an option with a buyout clause after this year. If the Sox hang onto him, but buy out his 2016 option (as opposed to taking it), can the team then offer him arb and get a comp pick if he turns it down? Someone asked on Twitter, I honestly can't find the answer. The question is pretty silly. We hold an option that will be cheaper then what he would cost for the one year qualifying offer. If he thought he was worth that much, we'd just pick up his option.
