  1. QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 10, 2016 -> 08:55 PM) I suspect a relief pitcher or 2 might be obtainable The bat will be much harder. Might have to roll with a better bullpen and hope Morneau does as good as the last 2 years without the aid of Coors ( Field not the beer). If we do get another bat I would suspect it to be more of a complimentary piece than a Bruce, Cargo or Lucroy.. Relying on help from the minors in the BP is a fools errand. Imagine if the Bruce trade went through in the offseason and they had signed Cespedes. SS - Anderson CF - Eaton LF - Cespedes DH - Bruce 1B - Abreu 3B - Frazier RF - Melky 2B - Lawrie C - Navaro
  2. QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 10, 2016 -> 10:04 PM) I'd assume just take what player you'd add (call him X). Take a stat like RISP and then factor player X in. Sox are hitting .239. Beltran is hitting .215. Bruce .366.
  3. I'd be interested to see some in depth stats that illustrate how much difference a big bat would have made in our line up in the first half and forecasted into the second. As in - how many LOB have we had per game on average. How many 2nd base or 3rd base runners stranded with 0 outs / 1 out / 2 outs... Take those stats and figure how much would change with a producer added. Maybe - just maybe - a big bat would do a lot for this team. Most likely not enough but just wondering.
  4. QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 10, 2016 -> 08:48 PM) You speak the truth. I don't know why people don't like my suggestion that could rebuild this team in a hurry. ... Over the all star break identifiy the young studs on contenders' AA and AAA teams and GO GET THEM. Look, contenders will want the guys I want to deal: Melky, Robertson, Frazier, Duke, Lawrie, Avila, Navarro. Somebody might also want Avi and/or Shuck. Trade Q as well if you get an unbelievable haul in return. Get a boatload of players for these guys and rebuild around Sale, Abreu, Eaton, Anderson, Saladino and maybe Q. Nate can become the closer until the offseason when we buy one via free agency. GO SOX! f*** that - if you're blowing it up.. Blow it up. Sale and Abreu goes as well. Q for sure. Anderson, Rodon, and Eaton are the new ones to build around.
  5. My guess is if they're trading for anyone of substance, he'll not just be a rental. This doesn't include bullpen help, thou.
  6. QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 7, 2016 -> 08:48 PM) Those strikeouts though. What? Strikeouts are fun!
  7. Two trade articles in one day. Yup. The season is upon us.
  8. QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Jul 6, 2016 -> 07:57 PM) Is he starting? Wtf
  9. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 5, 2016 -> 04:50 PM) Rodon has struggled with the Yankees (10 ER's in 9 career IP)...let's hope he can figure it out. Didn't he give up like 7 in 1 2/3 last year thou?
  10. QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 3, 2016 -> 02:13 PM) 42-40. Melky should be back tomorrow. Jackson not far off and Morneau on rehab next week. How's Jackson progressing, I haven't read anything about him lately at all.
  11. QUOTE (CB2.0 @ Jul 1, 2016 -> 09:35 PM) lol YOU started all this s*** and yet can't produce a line showing anything. BOX SCORE OF SHIELDS SHOWING IP MORE THAN 5.0 AGAINST RED SOX. Thanks.
  12. Avila - how do I love you... Let me count the ways. Ok, I'm done counting.
  13. QUOTE (Insp @ Jul 1, 2016 -> 06:50 PM) Houston seems to be playing as a team while the Sox are playing as individuals. Uh. Wtf?
  14. Abreu - that ball is gone in just about every other park... s***
  15. Hawk saying Avi hasn't been having trouble defensively. Uh. Yea. Ok.
  16. QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 1, 2016 -> 05:17 PM) Abreu so feeble on inside fastballs. Let's see if Gonzalez can earn himself another start Who else are they gonna throw instead of Gonzalez?
  17. QUOTE (TRU @ Jul 1, 2016 -> 04:11 PM) I know what he meant, I was just giving him s*** Something in this thread is moist.
  18. QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Jul 1, 2016 -> 04:06 PM) I think he thinks they're playing in Chicago this weekend so it is relevant to what you said very much. Duh award of the day, yet again goes to me
  19. QUOTE (TRU @ Jul 1, 2016 -> 03:59 PM) I'll be at the game tonight, hoping for the best. I have 3 extra tickets for tomorrow's game, right behind home plate. I can't find anyone else to go, so if anyone is interested in going PM me and we'll work it out. They are free, no worries there. It's sale day too, gonna be a good one. Oh how I wish I lived in Chicago right now
  20. SS - Anderson RF - Eaton 1B - Abreu DH - Frazier 2B - Lawrie C - Avila LF - Garcia 3B - Saladino CF - Shuck
