AAA success is nothing new to Renaudo. He is the right handed Eric Surkamp.

Yes.

.80 is .800 Stoney

Ynoa.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 22, 2016 -> 09:06 PM) No, I want the team to have a plan/strategy/vision. Like GreenSox said, Saladino and some random player will be traded for another large veteran salary...and we'll have no options for replacing 2B, which will lead to more fruitless veteran acquisitions. I'm surprised they haven't made you a moderator yet so you could be the ultimate arbiter of what constitutes "good fans." How about you send out PM's to all the posters in the database who didn't post at all...or were in the game thread earlier and gave up already? That will make them all better fans, I'm sure. If only they had someone to educate them. Here is a bet. I bet Saladino is still a White Sox after the trade deadline. You bet he gets traded. Loser has to log off Soxtalk forever.

Horrible managing by Farrell.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 22, 2016 -> 08:58 PM) Who'd have thought that Junior Guerra would be 4-1 as a starter with a 3.67 ERA? Thompson is finally fading a bit with the Dodgers and Puig is back again, so his PT will decrease, but it's crazy how a change of environment will work wonders for some players and everything will click. Also helps when the organization you play for has 100% confidence (and patience) in you...where you can't lose your position after a week or two of bad at-bats. Others, like Erik Johnson, he gone. Tie Game again. We're bad fans for being in the thread, though, because the White Sox WERE losing and now it's tied again. No, you're a bad fan because you want the team to lose. You are probably really cranky right now.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 22, 2016 -> 08:33 PM) Be safe out there, weather is blowing up Direct Tv it gone.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 22, 2016 -> 08:31 PM) I started listening to the game, fell asleep, the Sox were leading...when I woke up it was already 4-2 and then Frazier tied it. So did I cause these two runs to be scored? LOL. It is amazing how you always have something else going On when they are winning, yet if they are getting killed or lose a lead, your posting like crazy. It is just a fact.

QUOTE (Insp @ Jun 22, 2016 -> 08:26 PM) Now that the team is doing poorly, there is a lot more posting here. Of course. There are a couple of guys here who take great joy when the White Sox are trailing.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 22, 2016 -> 08:21 PM) Thanks for finding. So 6th a little above career and 7th well below Also has trouble in the first, and the 8th.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 22, 2016 -> 08:15 PM) Is that this season or career Career

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 22, 2016 -> 08:10 PM) 6th inning has always been a issue with Q Actually it is the 5th. But he has company. The hardest part of the game for Mickey Mantle was the bottom of the fifth.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 22, 2016 -> 08:08 PM) Seems he struggles so much in the 6-7 innings during his career. Great pitcher but definitely lacks a killer instinct 3.72 ERA in the 6th. 2.79 in the 7th.

What is with this display by Hanley?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 22, 2016 -> 08:02 PM) 21 Jump Street. That is the most homers ever for a Sox player before the ASG. 3rd baseman. Big Hurt was hitting .383 with 32 homers at the ASB in 1994. He was insane.

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Jun 22, 2016 -> 06:43 PM) It's the lull before the storm. Yep the pitchforks will be out in full force tomorrow with Shields on the mound.

QUOTE (shipps @ Jun 22, 2016 -> 03:28 PM) LMAO just so we are clear...you arent a fan of this trade, right bmags? He does have a point. None of the players the Bulls received make you want to watch a game.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jun 22, 2016 -> 03:26 PM) I would rather watch Khalid El Amin in the back court than watch either Lopez brother play basketball. It's like convincing me Joe Johnson isn't that bad. He is certainly tall and can rebound, but they make me hate the sport of basketball. No. I had season tickets then. No, you don't want that.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jun 22, 2016 -> 03:16 PM) Clearly Butler didn't put them int he top third or else they would have been in the top third last year. I don't understand the "they would have spent it on worse" Don't worry about them taking on long term crap contract for a short term crap contract, they are so inept they'd spend it even worse next year! No reason to complain. This is the Bulls. Unless they get rid of Gar/Pax, if it is truly contending for titles that matters, it doesn't matter if they trade Jimmy Butler for 4 second round picks. It isn't happening. The one positive is they actually traded Rose. It might not be a good trade, but they did make a big trade. They wouldn't even trade Pau at the deadline last year even though he served no purpose at that point. So progress. It's probably a bad trade. And it probably will give them less money to work with next offseason. But players have to take it, and that doesn't happen with the Bulls.

Hopefully this won't make Jimmy a bigger diva.

In the end it probably doesn't matter. Lopez is in for Noah or Pau or both, so while they did take on a little salary, they will have more cap space, but it isn't like they are going to sign Durant. They usually come in 2nd or 3rd for anyone you need big cap space to acquire. If it blows up, maybe it's another nail in the Gar/Pax coffin but I am sure the subtraction of Reggie Rose from all Bulls related things is going to score GarPax bonus points.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jun 22, 2016 -> 02:44 PM) Here you guys go, here's the great trade that had to be done. http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=jd95om7 Check out that sweet money transfer. The Bulls picked up 2 wins. That's a first round knockout in the playoffs and JR will be happy with a couple more full houses.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jun 22, 2016 -> 02:38 PM) If Robin Lopez is the 2nd best player on your roster, you are the New York Knicks guys. We did it! The more I examined it, the more I agree with you. This guy is signed for a long time and he's a journeyman at best.

QUOTE (JenksIsMyHero @ Jun 22, 2016 -> 02:33 PM) What else are you getting for Rose though? If anything you're being nice by giving the guy a fresh start, in a big market, with a year left to get his next big contract. I wonder if they see Grant as someone that can develop? Did anyone see him play last year? Horace is happy. He wanted the Buws to draft him last year.
