2016 Cubs catch-all thread
Did anyone see the play a he plate that Arrieta was called safe on? That is the reason review is needed. It was an absolutely horrendous call that was over turned.

What to do at the Trade Deadline
I voted for stand pat. I don't what the Ray Durham / Jon Adkins crap. Sell high or don't sell. If you can flat out win a trade for guys like Lawrie, Frazier, Melkey, Shields, Duke, Robertson or Abreu you do it. I do not want them to give them away.

July 19th Game Thread: ChiSox@Seattle Mariners
QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 19, 2016 -> 10:17 PM) How does Steverson still have a job? What a gutless organization He was hired to instill his philosophy which neglects obp. Another organizational failure.

What to do at the Trade Deadline
QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 19, 2016 -> 10:48 AM) I don't even know what Puigs value is? Would be an ok buy low candidate for this team since they don't have a ton of prospects to deal. Swap he and Avi lol. Nice change of scenery trade for both players Avi has zero skill set he literally does nothing well. How he is run out there daily is testament to how bad the White Sox evaluate talent. They thought he was a 30/30 guy and a CF. He cannot play defense and is the worst base runner I have ever seen.

navarro
He really serves less of a purpose than Flowers did.

White Sox @ Mariners 9:10PM CSN
QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 18, 2016 -> 11:47 PM) Sale pitched one inning in the last 10 days. Should have been given at least one runner in the 9th, especially with Robertson being rusty 3 run lead was a good time for Robertson to get the rust off Sale was at 100 pitches should have stayed in but then turn over a game with base runners to a rusty Robertson maybe not a good idea either Offense needs more than 3 runs off wade Leblanc

White Sox @ Mariners 9:10PM CSN
QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 18, 2016 -> 11:20 PM) 2 hits and a walk tonight and still gets more insults than any Sox. That's impressive. He is 23, can't play the outfield, can't run the bases and has a .628 ops....what's there to like about him?

White Sox @ Mariners 9:10PM CSN
My God avi is f***ing terrible

White Sox @ Mariners 9:10PM CSN
He hasn't pitched in a week and is at 100 pitches.....not sure when Robertson last pitched This offense just plain sucks.

White Sox @ Mariners 9:10PM CSN
QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 18, 2016 -> 10:54 PM) Ever check out batting averages on team websites when hitters get behind in the count ? They are bad but thats pretty normal across MLB but most of the Sox are in the .100's ? Their mantra is to swing at anything

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 18, 2016 -> 10:49 PM) Doesn't seem to just turn and launch homers anymore. His lack of power is astonishing Pitch recognition is embarassing.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 18, 2016 -> 10:44 PM) Abreu is swinging at s*** Avi swings at. Can't believe he's still swinging at that s*** down and away. What a f***ing pathetic AB for Abreu. Just get the season over with and forget about this one buddy. That is a guy he should be destroying...really sad.

White Sox @ Mariners 9:10PM CSN
QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jul 18, 2016 -> 10:00 PM) a) he hasn't earned the benefit of the doubt, he grades out as one of the worst guys in all of baseball at that, and b) it looked like a particularly clumsy attempt even if Sale did miss his location He is certainly not smooth back there.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 18, 2016 -> 09:34 PM) It's funny, LaRoche a guy who had known to be declining against lefties got plenty of AB's .Now Morneau who had hit lefties decently the last few years sits against them. Moronic business as usual.

Baltimore Riots
QUOTE (JenksIsMyHero @ Jun 23, 2016 -> 01:43 PM) Classic case of a prosecutor being appointed because of political clout more than ability and then royally screwing up a case. Hmm, sounds familiar! Chicago may see a good amount of these types things in the next couple years with their new state's attorney. This will be another factor in the increase in crime in the city and cook county

Time to bet the under in the Seattle series
QUOTE (sin city sox fan @ Jul 17, 2016 -> 05:29 PM) Our offense is anemic at this time and Seattle has scored 3 runs or less in 8 of their last 10 games. Might have less than 10 runs scored total in this 3 game series. Time to make some money. Sale just got hit hard by the Atlanta Braves.

Carson Fulmer Getting Called Up?
QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 15, 2016 -> 11:50 PM) Still don't understand why we don't give him the Sunday spot start and then put him in the bullpen. Can't hurt. Yet another in a line of moves that make no sense for this organization.
