QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 11, 2017 -> 09:51 AM) I just find it more likely that teams won't view the White Sox as serious sellers and will move on to teams that are negotiating honestly. This has all the potential of being too clever by half. Since taking over as GM Hahn has shown consistently that he is willing to sit out the market if his demands aren't met. This started with his first deadline in the chair... he was putting up what seemed to be a lot of "big talk" at the time who many questioned as posturing.... however, he displayed integrity and kind of put the GM circle on notice. They all know by now that what the man says, he means. I have faith in his skills and background as a negotiator.

QUOTE (Sleepy Harold @ Jul 11, 2017 -> 09:58 AM) Brian Bilek @BrianBilek_ now I was told earlier this week Milwaukee, New York and Colorado were leading the way on Q but nobody came forward with the "heavy names" yet. Daddy like.

QUOTE (shipps @ Jul 11, 2017 -> 09:18 AM) iirc McGuffey had the incorrect intel on the Robert going to the Cardinals. I could be wrong on that though.

QUOTE (heirdog @ Jul 10, 2017 -> 10:21 PM) I predict a surprise team that gets Quintana...Cleveland. Q + Melky for Zimmer, Mejia and lottery ticket Marcos Gonzalez You REALLY think they're gonna trade in division? I guess I could somewhat see it since we don't plan to compete much under Q's contract... highly doubtful... and you know that. Blah blah blah blah July 31st please blah blah blah blah blah

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 10, 2017 -> 06:44 PM) I hope three weeks from tonight we're all happy about 5/6 trades while the Blue Jays are kicking our ass. This. A hundred thousand times, this. ( wouldn't be surprised if we retained Q thou - I do let know what to expect thou as I don't think this will be a typical Hahn deadline. )

QUOTE (Quin @ Jul 10, 2017 -> 02:15 PM) Man, it's strange that the Sox could be the team that decides the World Series, like the Yankees last year. Wow - good thought, hadn't thunk it dat way befo

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Jul 10, 2017 -> 01:12 PM) Really wish we could fast-forward 3 weeks (actually, just the time where I am at work lol). +1000

My thoughts: "why can't it be July 31st yet?" What I can come up with: poop.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jul 10, 2017 -> 11:58 AM) Look at Washington's rumored offer for Sale. Robles, Giolito, Lopez, & Dunning. I bet many of us would argue that's a better overall package than than what we ultimately accepted from Boston. I think problem here is that the Sox placed incredibly high rankings on Moncada & Kopech (rightfully so) that they didn't want to risk losing them over secondary pieces. There was an article that came out shortly after the trade that made it pretty clear that Dombrowski would have given up a little more than he ultimatlry did. Not Devers or Groome, but definitely better overall value than Basabe & Diaz. I also think there was some marketing going on and the Sox really wanted to say they traded Sale for the #1 prospect in baseball, although I'm sure this was a smaller consideration. I also think that a lot of us trade Sale to Boston rather than Washington was knowing we got 3/4ths the deal the Nationals offered in the Eaton deal.

Hou, NYY waiting: https://t.co/k1n909Daip https://twitter.com/JonHeyman/status/884450862013321216 https://www.fanragsports.com/mlb/heyman-pri...es-waiting/amp/ "Chicago-connected folks have suggested they expect him to go this month." Also mentions we're seeking teams too two prospects.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 9, 2017 -> 01:34 PM) Robert Murray‏Verified account @RobertMurrayFRS 7m7 minutes ago More Regarding Brewers interest in Quintana/Gray, two rival execs think price to get either would be Lewis Brinson, Josh Hader, Brett Phillips. Replace Hader with Ortiz and add a 4th piece and I do that deal. Doubt Brewers would though I enjoy this time of year for all the speculation - can't wait for it to pick up

Back Ron pining for a 8 inning shut out no decision loss today.

QUOTE (2005thxfrthmmrs @ Jul 8, 2017 -> 03:16 PM) GUYS HE'S OK. His instagram story an hour ago shows him trying on some tight ripped jeans. Yea... dudes really f***ed up according to that picture:

QUOTE (Quin @ Jul 8, 2017 -> 01:59 PM) Moncada Kopech Robert are all definitely in the Top 100 I could see Giolito, Lopez and Collins still being firmly in the Top 100. Fulmer probably falling out. Hansen should be in. Dunning could be knocking on the door. +1

Still 5th coming into today. 1.5 GB of 3rd. A loss by us today and wins by the Reds and Padres would give us the 3rd slot.

Quintana for Stanton + 45 million bucks

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jul 7, 2017 -> 07:10 PM) Chuck Garfien reports that Robert allegedly has a minor knee problem. Will be shut down for seven days Sure hope it's minor

QUOTE (Scoots @ Jul 7, 2017 -> 06:21 PM) This is Shields2016-esque If it was still the first inning - I'd agree ?

QUOTE (maxjusttyped @ Jul 7, 2017 -> 06:17 PM) I'm worried people don't want to hear this in a game thread, but same. It's for the best. If it was 4 - 1 Sox in the second inning, I doubt it would have come up.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Jul 7, 2017 -> 05:59 PM) lol, we're going to need some laughter the next few months. Dog days are upon us. I hope we lose 100.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Jul 7, 2017 -> 05:53 PM) 2019 Rotation (keeping Q) Q Rodon Kopech Lopez Adams/Dunning. Now that is a rotation you can dream on. Dream on that as you watch the next 70 or so games of s***. I'm still dreaming on Hansen being acelike.

Perfect

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 7, 2017 -> 03:24 PM) Pain and agony may be melodramatic or may not be. I've been furious at the team and need to calm down and see what happens. I apologize for any anger I've caused in responding to my anger. It's just a game and I need to trust Hahn a bit as obviously he's not a dunce to get this far in life. You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy, when skies are greg

In a separate interview on the official chisox site with a Kopech... he said of himself regarding his change up, "it's making me a much more glorified pitcher." Glorified.
