Interviews with six Barons pitchers and their coach
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.

Anthony Swarzak to Brewers; Sox receive Ryan Cordell
QUOTE (steveno89 @ Jul 7, 2017 -> 02:34 PM) During the rebuild we will need to hang together as we suffer through some miserable seasons. Hopefully the pain and agony is manageable. I will say it is much easier to accept losing knowing that the organization has made rebuilding the clear priority with the Sale and Eaton trades. A higher draft position will only help us in the future.

Is it just me or has this years trading season been slooow?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 7, 2017 -> 01:35 PM) Avi Garcia is not in tonight's line up. Didn't he kind of awkwardly land in his foot making a play on Wednesday? More like #InjuryWatch rather than #HugWatch

Todd and Melky
QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Jul 7, 2017 -> 10:19 AM) No rumor or anything but just a solid read I came across. May piss off some people on this site (well, just Greg). https://theloopsports.com/2017/07/05/melky-...ed-trade-piece/ What poor writing, case in point: "Though his beard and “fun veteran” demeanor may portray him as an old player." ?

Guess the trade that kicks things off... and when does it occur? Bordeoms not a burden anyone should bear.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Jul 6, 2017 -> 04:56 PM) No way, the Giants and Phillies got the top 2 spots on lock. It's possible that we play worse than the Giants in the second half and make up the ground.

I really think when all is said and done that we have a shot at the second slot

Who will be the first player traded?
QUOTE (FT35 @ Jul 5, 2017 -> 08:34 PM) Interesting...Is this true even if a team claims him just to block him from going somewhere else? They're on the hook $ wise if we cut him? If the waiving team decides to let him go for the salary relief alone, then yes.... see Alex Rios to the White Sox as an example.

July 5th Game Thread: White Sox at Oakland A's
It's been a beautifully ugly game today. Horay for losing. Bring on the trades, these next 3.5 weeks can't go by fast enough. ?

Who will be the first player traded?
QUOTE (FT35 @ Jul 5, 2017 -> 01:34 PM) I think Frazier will be dangled but there will be no takers--Teams in search of a 3B will go hard after Josh Donaldson till the deadline hits. If Donaldson doesn't get moved, someone will claim Todd off waivers but no deal will be reached. Soxtalk will be forced to somehow make sense of this. If this happened and someone claimed him on waivers but we couldn't "reach a deal" -- we'd still cut ties with him and the claiming team would take on his remaining salary obligations. It's very likely Todd is gone.

Quintana
QUOTE (miracleon35th @ Jul 4, 2017 -> 03:35 PM) MLB trade rumors reports that Cubs may be interested in Verlander . That could start narrowing the field for starting pitchers. Just under 4 weeks left to see if anyone wants to play the "pay up" game.

QUOTE (PolishPrince34 @ Jul 4, 2017 -> 08:33 AM) Fernando Tatis Jr. tearing it up as an 18 year in Low A ball. This trade might go down as the worst in White Sox history. 274/.362/.462 12 hrs/14 Sb WRC-131 Since April 21 .300/.391/.511 WRC-152 Scouts are raving about his elite skills and saw one person make a comp to Manny Machado. I know he was 17 years old at the time, but makes me scratch my head to why they included him in the Shields deal. What a mistake!!!!! I hated the deal then and I hate it now. Sad panda. But buck up everyone!!! James Shields is starting for us today!!!! Hip hip horay!!!

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 3, 2017 -> 10:20 PM) 6 to 9 in one day. Under .444 - good Over .444 - bad Yea - today sucked... if I'm not mistaken a loss today and a loss tomorrow would have put us in 4th. Hopefully we lose the next 2.

Quintana
QUOTE (TheFutureIsNear @ Jul 2, 2017 -> 03:25 PM) His command wasn't there. Can't throw that many balls and expect to go deep into a game regardless of what your guys are doing behind you. Jose doesn't have the stuff to have an exact 2:1 s/b ratio. He needs to be more in the 65% strike ratio. Would I classify it as not bad? Sure, but I wouldn't call anything besides the 1st 2 innings as positive. Not that it's a big deal or anything...obviously that start was far from horrible and sure isnt going to deter teams or anything. Just saying that it would have been nice to see Q keep the moment going and he just didn't have his usual great location today. He was also getting squeezed and 4 errors is a big deal plus two questionable calls. Most days that's a quality start or better. Scouts I'm sure saw it.
