QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 15, 2017 -> 08:31 AM) You know Boston is only team that has/will express interest and you want to create an opening for Moncada St Louis? Moncada can wait two more weeks. We shouldn't be rushing a trade for that reason.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 15, 2017 -> 08:24 AM) 35 and 46 on soxprospects If you were Hahn, why would you do this today? Just to get it out of the way so you can focus on the relievers?

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 15, 2017 -> 08:19 AM) Saw that also. Cosart makes Kopech look pinpoint. Who knows, maybe Ball gets a shot as a hitter Yeah, I don't like Cosart. Ball would seem like a likely target.

Ball and Cosart?

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 15, 2017 -> 07:35 AM) Kenny did do well for a while when he exploited that average proven vet production was more valuable than c+/b prospects. But we got destroyed when the players decline started happening earlier post steroids. Suddenly our bad farm could only net players well on way to decline. Sox have been such a weird team. Our weak links have been awful, season destroying bad. But we had teams built for short series that could never come close to getting there. The story of the modern White Sox. Built for the playoffs, not the regular season.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jul 15, 2017 -> 07:12 AM) Ah yes, the comp pick. That's what it was. This is when comp picks first started right? So Beane traded Adkins for Durham and then got a comp pick (or picks) in the 2003 draft after he walked. I loved me some KW as GM until recent years, but good god did he have some epic fail moments. We need Kenny to become the GM of the Houston Astros.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 14, 2017 -> 11:48 PM) Sounds like the same kind of rant I've had about Houston . But it's not just their fans its their management, too. But we'll see what Houston does by July 31st. This dude wanted to run Brad Peacock out for game 3 of a playoff series, and then "piggyback" their 4 and 5 starters off him for the remainder of the game and just use a "quick hook." You could hear Casey Stern sighing in the background and basically getting completely pissed off. Then he just went off on the guy... You want to start BRAD PEACOCK in your playoff series? What are the Astros waiting for??? How about actually trying to win now! He then went through all their young stars and asked WHERE ARE YOU GOING TO PLAY YOUR PROSPECTS? Do you want to bring up a SECOND team to play in the major leagues?? I was dying.

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Jul 15, 2017 -> 05:05 AM) Sounds like a deal is done and waiting for the announcement, perhaps after medicals are confirmed? I do like the reported package of prospects. Source? All I can find is the kind of nonsense I was posting last night for s***s and giggles.

raBBit ruling out Chavis

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 14, 2017 -> 08:49 PM) Pretty sure he posts ridiculous claims and then deletes when don't happen I LOLd

So is there any point to us doing this deal today, unless it was for someone other than Teddy Stankiewicz?

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jul 14, 2017 -> 08:44 PM) That dude seems somewhat insane, but hey, we all doubted wetbutt yesterday. Yeah, I'm just posting what I see...and sorry about the links...went back and fixed them.

Bucket?

Rick Slattery???

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jul 14, 2017 -> 08:34 PM) What does "Cheap prospect" mean? heck Devers is cheap - minor league salaries aren't much. Pretty sure it means Teddy Stankiewicz

If that doesn't make you horny, I don't know what will.

QUOTE (Quin @ Jul 14, 2017 -> 08:26 PM) Guessing time: Jalen Beeks and Trey Ball, because left hands and Heads. Don't sleep on Teddy Stankiewicz

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 14, 2017 -> 07:51 PM) Looks like it was due to RHP coming in for LHP Good. I don't like Providence kids anyways.

Not that this means anything, but Sam Travis was pulled earlier in the game.

QUOTE (NCsoxfan @ Jul 14, 2017 -> 07:40 PM) After an hour of twitter rumors? Lol I suppose you may be right...Boston media going crazy I guess.

QUOTE (shipps @ Jul 14, 2017 -> 07:37 PM) Sam Leweck a Red Sox writer says it can happen tonight but it isn't iminent. I suspect it's already done, or it ain't happening. This thing is too dirty now.

Would have to assume we'd target someone we like fairly well to do it this early? Edit: This post makes no f***ing sense. Too much multitasking.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jul 14, 2017 -> 07:29 PM) Awesome. Where are you seeing this shack? All over twitter
