QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 11:58 PM) I'll back a player like Chris Sale over our s*** management team anyday. He's produced. They haven't. Except for what sadly turned into that one year wonder called a WS title. I will always shake KW's hand and Oz's hand for that and Jerry but this organization blows. More power to Sale. Those uniforms do suck. This has nothing to do with production, tantrums, or uniforms. It's all about song choice and dance off epic failure moves.

Great article about this whole thing: https://theringer.com/chris-sale-chicago-wh...cf6d#.i3pco7j40

Watch this and tell me you don't want him traded. http://m.tmz.com/#video/0_ior3ya9i/

QUOTE (miracleon35th @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 10:51 PM) I hope this is not the case but the possibility that there may be a racial element to Sale's dislike for Kenny Williams has crossed my mind. I hope you get a ban for this stupidity.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 09:35 PM) Shows a consistent pattern and not all animus simply aimed at KW. You're half way to an Aenima. Nice.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 09:27 PM) I hope you all know that there were no "jersey sales". This jersey was not even for sale, it was a free giveaway. You need a new signature. You can use mine if you like or PM me a request and I'll make one for you. Goes for anyone here - PM me for a sig. I wanna flex my photoshop muscles.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 09:24 PM) Hopefully, sale didnt pull out the knife while the argument was going on. Can you imagine being Hahn when sale is mad and pulls out the knife to attack the uniforms.? That's such and awesome image.

QUOTE (oldsox @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 07:36 PM) Wonder if Robertson was ever discussed with Cubs prior to their trade with Seattle Probably not

QUOTE (Special K @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 09:38 PM) I hate Rick Hahn. I will 100% become a Cubs fan if they trade Sale. Prepared to be done with this Organization. It will be so liberating. A tear down has been mentioned in these parts since 2007. I was totally against it then but hey - the people who started beating that drum were right. You're not a fan, by the way. Bye.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 04:35 PM) Why do my spidey senses tell me this somehow involved poop Banned.

Funny, this thread has become the game thread and there's not a mention of the game. Says a lot.

QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 04:26 PM) The Sale incident began with something "silly" that mushroomed into a bigger argument, says a source. #Whitesox https://twitter.com/jcrasnick/status/756993354496352256 So Kenny said, "don't be a b**** / queen / f**" about trade rumors and pitch, Chris." Got it. f***ing Kenny. I'm with Sale. Don't stand for that crap man!

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 04:13 PM) We don't know if that's what happened. Using the word "investigation" is a bit scary and leaves a lot of room to the imagination. I already told you exactly what happened. Case closed.

QUOTE (SCCWS @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 04:11 PM) Huh??? You want to trade a top 5 pitcher in baseball for a package centered around a AA 2nd baseman who some project to be a DH in the majors. Time for your parents to take your computer away. Betts and Monacada. Bring it. Please God? That would sure as hell be an OUCH to the Red Sox but I'd be stoked.

What really happened was a pre game meeting with Kenny Williams and Sale. Kenny told Sale that they had a trade package lined up that they couldn't refuse but also mentioned that JR wouldn't approve the deal. Kenny then asked Sale if he considers him a dochebag - to which Sale replied, "yes - of course." Kenny then told him to be a complete jack off, to get completely drunk, and to start ranting about how much better he is than, "Moan-a-catta". Told him to be sure to also eat a lot of itilian desert before getting drunk and requested projectile vomit all over Robin. It went down exactly like this and JR is currently sitting with Kenny "reviewing" the trade offer again. Case closed.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 03:54 PM) This is gonna get ugly if I'm interpreting Rabbit's last tweet properly Huh? I don't see what you're reading into with his tweet.

QUOTE (soxforlife05 @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 03:49 PM) If true Sale just f***ed up their leverage in trade negotiations for him. Not really. Explanation of Sale's b****ing

QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 03:48 PM) Yeah he probably got pissed because rumors got out that they may sell. f*** him. You dont want to leave/ Play better and win. You They didnt. Fixed.

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 03:44 PM) Jon Morosi ‏@jonmorosi 8s8 seconds ago Chris Sale involved in a "clubhouse incident before the game," team says. #WhiteSox Uhhhhh. This is seriously the strangest trade rumor s*** I've ever heard.

Someone on the Red Sox forum Sons of Sam Horn posted this: http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/2016-trade-value-21-to-30/ Check out players 25 and 26.

Is it August 1st yet?

Albers? Serious? Wow, I've gotta watch this!

QUOTE (bschmaranz @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 02:20 PM) Just not the left one? No. I like my left guy but have always resented his big brother.
