Merkin tweeted there was basically zero talks today about the guy Williams was interested in today. Simple as that, no deal was gonna happen, might as well have some fun.

With 30 minutes to go, Williams pulls a prank on Guillen, Beckham. From this you know there really was no action/conversation today about the guys Williams was interested in.

Hopefully Viciedo can become Kendry Morales/1B because, I don't think he sticks at 3B.

They probably simply wouldn't want to sign Dunn for whatever reason, doubt its money issue.

Thank you Lucas, you could have seen how excited he was, beautiful moment watching a kid having his dreams come through in front of millions.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 03:08 PM) August is for overpaid/underperforming/injured players to the dumped or dealt for low level guys. Fun. Alex Rios was in the underperforming category, Manny fits all three, could be something.

I expected another 'This season is over' thread from you :> I think Kenny will make a play for Manny, sooner than later.

QUOTE (kev211 @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 03:03 PM) From my understanding they were willing to throw all but 1 million. Not at all. DA has it right.

White Sox say there are done at deadline. No more deals at least not until players clear waivers Nightendale

We'll find out soon but Heyman is saying Hart or Bautista .

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 02:48 PM) Jonathan Sanchez was seen hugging teammates in the dugout. Wasn't his name thrown out there as the possible cost for Dunn on the Giants end? Also cost for Hart and Bautista.

OFFTOPIC: Sanchez seen huggin teammates in the Giant dugout

jonmorosi Chances aren't very good for Heilman or LaRoche trades, either, source says.

Exec on Dunn: "He's not going anywhere. Bank on it." #Nationals #WhiteSox #Rays #Tigers #MLB - Rosenthal

More on #WhiteSox, conflicts with previous tweet: Source says #Nationals have not made counter-offer on Dunn "in days." Truth at 4 pm! - Rosenthal

Rosenthal #WhiteSox still working on Dunn. Would be Jackson-plus. Source: "This thing is far from over."

Heard this: Already, a whole lot of speculation among rival FO about whether the White Sox will place a waiver claim on Manny in Aug.#trades - Olney

Pierre7, Ram6, Rios8, PK3, Q dh, AJ2, Vic5, Jones9, Beckham4. Danks pitching.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 01:49 PM) He can't come up for another 10 days. I was getting at its not necessarily an automatic loss, as many thought last night would be.

QUOTE (Real @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 01:46 PM) sweet, an automatic loss out of the 5th spot for the rest of the year Lucas Harrell says hi.

But then we're stuck with no pitcher?

SI_JonHeyman jackson for dunn is still a possibility. but nationals want #chisox to add another player or 2

Heard this: The Nationals are still talking trade with several teams on Dunn, as we get closer to the deadline. - Olney

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 01:23 PM) Not even worth thinking about those two teams when we've got the Twins right on our ass. Mauer is heating up and Morneau should be back soon. Aren't they like 13-3 since Bobby's epic choke? Nobody saw that coming (sarcasm). They are going to Tampa soon.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 12:57 PM) Deadline is 3 or 4 Central time? 3.
