QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 28, 2011 -> 07:52 PM) I think this guy really is a guy in his underwear in his mom's basement. Yep. I was thinking that he might just be trying a social experiment to see if he can get some new outlet to scoop on his BS.

QUOTE (buhbuhburrrrlz @ Jul 28, 2011 -> 07:52 PM) pretty sure KW said this himself in an interview yesterday. He said they were looking to cut payroll without hurting the team too much so they could possibly be creative and add on. Kenny NEVER EVER has EVER postured a position through an interview. I'm not saying that I believe this report that they're willing to add now - but really man.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 28, 2011 -> 07:44 PM) Ballantini brings up a valid point though. This is Trader Kenny we're talking about here. We're 3 games out of 1st place at the trade deadline. Think about it. It makes sense to me.

QUOTE (Real @ Jul 28, 2011 -> 07:29 PM) We're not adding payroll, this csn guy is just speculating That's what everyone in the know and all signs indicate. Seems like a pretty off the wall comment, like the Rios to Brewers thing.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jul 28, 2011 -> 07:22 PM) The guy from CSN: Keep your eyes on KW; the payroll trim of E Jack City/Teahen deal means it's more likely #WhiteSox ADD payroll than cut in next deal Interesting as this again contradicts all other reports. If they're looking to ADD payroll ( which has not yet been said by ANYONE else ) they're not going to dump Q.

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jul 28, 2011 -> 06:30 PM) Pence isn't off the table. It's becoming more and more likely he's dealt. There's a lot of conflicting information out there. You never know what's going to happen during this time of year. It's awesome.

I don't think that ATL is stupid enough to give us Teheran but maybe - just maybe - we get 3 of their top 15 prospects.

QUOTE (Kenny Hates Prospects @ Jul 28, 2011 -> 06:21 PM) Totally not happening. Of course it won't I'm just trying to illustrate a point - try and gut a team for Q and then move on and keep trading off valuable pieces. If not, don't trade Q and stand pat. Looks like Hunter Pence is off the table now. Let the fight for Quentin begin. Philly VS. Atlanta... *ding* *ding*

And he continues to ignore my questions - for the last 48 hours I've been asking him WHY the brewers would EVER WANT rios. He says nothing.

If you get someone with a "bowled over" type offer for Quentin - you take it. Then, you start looking into trading 2 more starters. You DON'T STOP at Quentin if someone knocks down your door to get it. You use that opportunity as a spring board into a true youth movement... and if this is the direction they are truly going - it makes me sad to see us not being able to pick up Colby. However, it's a wait and see game because hell - who knows, we might have had to give up Jackson + Sale + Thornton + Spects to get him and... **** that. Give me Julio Teheran, Randall Delgado, and Carlos Perez from ATL for Quentin and Thornton. Then try to gut Boston or New York by dumping off Danks + Rios + Cash. Too bad STL got Jackson + from TOR - or it'd be prime time to gut them for M56. Bottom line is this - if Quentin goes... sell the ****ing whole lot and stack the house for 2013/2014.

Phillies, Red Sox, Pirates, and Braves. Aren't 3 out of those 4 the same teams we had been listed as heavily scouting? Edit: Nope, 2 out of the 4 - the other listed was the Yankees

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jul 28, 2011 -> 12:12 PM) I hope more people post that tweet. ask and you shall receive. crazy I hadn't seen it posted in here - since I just woke up and all.

From MLBTradeRumors... Funny.

In the game I've digested thus far - I'm not seeing poor breaking stuff other than his tendency to leave them up. If you keep an eye to when it's down - it's pretty nasty. I'm looking forward to watching his most recent 2 starts - as one he gave up 6 in 3.2 IP and another 7IP 2ER QS

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 10:42 PM) Guys, because Carlos Gomez broke his collarbone. They're literally playing Mark Kotsay in the OF. Remember Mark Kotsay? And because Carlos Gomez broke his collarbone - they literally couldn't replace him with someone better than Alex Rios? Remember, Alex Rios? Tuche.

QUOTE (The '05 Sound @ Jul 28, 2011 -> 12:04 AM) But if that was the case where Stewart and Sale are the eventual take overs of Danks and Floyd, I can only imagine what we get for those two and where those players go. (Now im thinking way too into it, i guess its a bit late) I believe he was talking about 2012/2013.

Yep... problems thus far leaving the curve and change up. If he learns to keep that stuff down and the curve sharp - bring it.

Ran it up to 93 in the fourth - a nice fastball that back doored the outside corner. Really nice movement there. He looks big league ready to me - aside from his tendency to get the change up. I think he might look good with the Sox under Coopers wing. He got shelled in ATL on JUN 21st. Nice, time to look that one up and see more of the potential bad.

One thing I can say about this kid thus far is I like his approach on the mound. He's out there - just getting the ball - and throwing. In the 3rd here, he's got runners on second and third with two out. Gets ahead quickly 1-2 and then gets a grounder to second. Nice. Wonder if he's a Mark B. fan or if the #56 was just by chance. Isn't he from the Chicago Land?

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 11:32 PM) Well said, Omar I think that's the best quote related to the team seen thus far in 2011. Good find Ginger.

QUOTE (scenario @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 08:01 PM) Game summary of Stewart's major league debut on June 16th. Thanks! I think I'll give this game a watch.
