This game is on a pace that would make Mark Buehrle smile.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jul 5, 2014 -> 11:58 AM) Disagree here, Danks may be overpaid but his salary won't prevent us from making moves going forward. Therefore, I'd like to see some real value in return or I'd just hold on to him. Not like we're loaded with pitching at the top of our system. IF we are seeing the real John Danks right now, he isn't overpaid, or anywhere close to it.

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Jul 5, 2014 -> 11:23 AM) For Danka, I would want back Gary Sanchez and maybe three of the INTL guys that they just signed, specifically Juan De Leon, Jonathan Amundary and Dermis Garcia and cash considerations. Pretty sure you can't trade the guys you just signed.

Both of these guys are just dealing.

Adrian Wojnarowski ‏@WojYahooNBA 42s Miami president Pat Riley plans to meet with free agent Luol Deng in Chicago today, league source tells Yahoo.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jul 5, 2014 -> 10:01 AM) My sources tell me that Derrick Rose may or may not want Melo on the team. False

Lou Canellis I take the weekend off AND, the Bulls work on deal to add Nikola Mirotic, a source tells me D Rose & another starter want NOTHING to do with Melo, Brazil loses Neymar for the rest of the World Cup & the Cubs dump Jeff Samardzija & Jason Hammel…guess I better get back to work!

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 5, 2014 -> 09:46 AM) Farmer said they were supposedly going to sign 7-9 more. Not sure exactly when or from where in the world. I would guess that means in the $50-100k range

QUOTE (Brian @ Jul 4, 2014 -> 08:47 PM) Agreed on all accounts. The Heat was ok actually. Honestly, she reminds me of many of the old SNL based movies. Great skits, terrible movies.

QUOTE (juddling @ Jul 5, 2014 -> 01:32 AM) Not even close.........I can think of two pizza worse than Papa John's off the top of my head....Sbarro's and CiCi's pizza (not to mention the aforementioned Chucky Cheese's) I'd take Papa John's over Pizza Hut as well....though my wife is the other way around so it's always an adventure ordering....unless we spend a bit more and just go to Aurelio's........ In terms of cheap pizza, I'd take sbarros over PJs any day.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 4, 2014 -> 09:51 PM) 18 game hitting streak . Another HR and 2 RBI. Ho-Hum. Over his last 12 games, 6 homers and 6 strikeouts.

With attendance being awful this year, and the team losing money last year, I'd bet we look to dump the full salary, and take back a lesser prospect.

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Jul 4, 2014 -> 10:45 PM) Don't battle the resident nerd. Dude has never actually seen a baseball game in his life, but he'll tell you all about it. Sabr and s*** like that. Soxtalk decided to make all the internet dudes mods. Jake has become the only dude that actually knows wtf he's talking about. Good job Soxtalk. Witesoxfan, eminor, rabbit and the rest of these lame ass douches have become the voice of White Sox baseball. Bunch of b****es. They will continue to project players they've never actually seen. Yeah, I don't know what this is exactly, but it isn't acceptable. Enjoy the time away. Sounds like you don't want to be here anyway.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 4, 2014 -> 10:20 PM) It is a great return but I think the Cubs would be better off paying Samardzija. When you want to compete you can't keep banking on finding the next Scott Feldman or Jason Hammel. That's just it. Are they going get a pitcher that is better than Smarj? Then they are setting their rebuild back two to three more years.

I'd love to get something out of Noesi.

Roch Kubatko ‏@masnRoch 15m #orioles have placed OF Nolan Reimold on waivers after exploring trade options. Would be outrighted to AAA if clears. Cant refuse assignment

Scott Powers ‏@ESPNChiPowers 1h ICYMI: Teuvo Teravainen's chances slim to start season in NHL for Blackhawks http://es.pn/1mXb11o

Comcast SportsNet ‏@CSNChicago 1h Report: Nikola Mirotic ready to join #Bulls this summer - http://bit.ly/1mRKNsB

QUOTE (Knuckles @ Jul 4, 2014 -> 01:14 PM) LOL. Now report saying, Rose didn't help recruit Anthony. WHY WHY WHY. Just unreal.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 4, 2014 -> 12:49 PM) One good enough to fall well short. I think it is a team that could play with Miami. I doubt they can beat them. Of course that is with the obvious caveat of Rose staying healthy.

The fact that teams are talking about sending young pitching for Viciedo probably tells us that the league doesn't think as little of him as Sox fans do.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 4, 2014 -> 12:37 PM) A team with: Rose Butler Dunleavy Gibson Noah Mirotic McDermott Snell Bairstow Randolph plus whatever our cap space nets us That doesn't make me hate my life by any stretch. I'm a little excited for it. It is a better team than last year.

So who's up for the Melo-drama ending soon?

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Jul 3, 2014 -> 11:51 PM) Completely premature question, but being that I am unfamiliar with the DSL league, do players ever get promoted out of those leagues midseason to like a Great Falls or a AZL? Or do they stay there all year long no matter what and then look for advancement the following summer? Most of the DSL is really young kids.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jul 4, 2014 -> 07:55 AM) I think the Melissa McCarthy craze is on the downhill. She hasn't done a good movie, by critics standards, since Bridesmaids. I'll be watching Life Itself on demand in a few weeks. She is awful. It is the same character over and over again. In small doses it can be kind of funny. In large doses it is awful. Identity Thief was one of the worst movies I have ever seen. Tammy looks like the exact same movie.
