Lots of personal attacks about Pablo Sandoval in this thread. It's so disheartening.

Jesus, don't we have a Big Brother thread? Or can someone make one?

Solid premiere of Rick and Morty. Nice guest voices of Key and Peele.

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jul 25, 2015 -> 10:39 PM) Since when did Tony Kemp, all 5-6 of him (reported), become some elite prospect, such that trading one of our top prospects for him is insufficient? Pass on Kemp. I'll take Micah and Anderson. Easy homeboy, I'm matching players that were scratched today, not saying it's the entirety of the deal hence the "+" sign after Kemp's name.

QUOTE (SCCWS @ Jul 25, 2015 -> 07:42 PM) or they are packaging Johnson and Montas in a trade................................................ I assume you're being sarcastic.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 25, 2015 -> 08:46 AM) How can you say Jageilo is ready next year? He hasn't played above A ball and is 3 years younger than Trey? I'd rather have a full season of Delmonico in AA (younger than Jagielo) Trey will be in AA next year, and if he has a good year next year, I think he has an outside chance of being a September call up. I don't know what Eric Jagielo you are looking up, but the 3B from Notre Dame is 23 years old (3 years OLDER than Trey), and is in AA batting .284 and slugging almost .500....

Montas was scheduled to start in AA tonight...he has since been scratched. BlackSox suggests it may be to replace Johnson in AAA, who will replace Shark. Sounds reasonable.

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Jul 25, 2015 -> 07:06 PM) I'm thinking Samardzija has been traded, Erik Johnson about to be recalled to the Sox and Montas bumped to Charlotte. That's a solid train of thought.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 25, 2015 -> 05:48 PM) Maybe his wife will complain on twitter again That's exactly what I thought when I saw it. It was right down the middle, Ruiz (It's still Ruiz, right?) caught it weird, so it seemed a bit odd. But I doubt Fowler saw how Ruiz received it.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Jul 25, 2015 -> 06:47 PM) Do we have eyes out there for #HugWatch? Another player on #HugWatch is Tony Kemp, the 2B prospect for the Astros. Luhnow just said there got another deal in the works right now and many believe they still want another pitcher. Montas and Putnam for Kemp +?

QUOTE (bighurt4life @ Jul 25, 2015 -> 02:58 PM) Anyone remember dan remenowsky? Absolutely dominated the lower levels, had a k/9 of almost 16 one season. Thought he'd be the next Keith Foulke. Hawk used to always rave that he "could knock the gnat off a cow's behind"

Season finale of Wayward Pines tonight.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jul 23, 2015 -> 07:38 PM) I hope we keep the Shark and sign him to a deal Trade him, then see if he will sign this offseason for less. As for what I'd like from Toronto... (Fangraphs org rankings) C Pentecost (#5 prospect) SP Reid-Foley (#10 prospect) 3B Mitch Nay (#11 prospect) But absolutely try to get at least 1 of Pentecost or Reid-Foley, then fill in the rest.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jul 23, 2015 -> 02:06 PM) Close, Irish You take that s*** back. YOU TAKE THAT s*** BACK RIGHT NOW!

Can we just trade Shark to LAD for Schebler and another piece?

De Aza is likely the dumbest player I can ever remember the Sox employing. So there's that.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 22, 2015 -> 11:24 PM) Really hope they don't get Price. Not a fan of him to start with, and if he goes to the Cubs...yuck http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2015/07/22/lev...ut-david-price/ For those of you who seem to hate the Cubs, it seems like a terrible situation, because Price makes the Cubs better this year, and the prospects they send offer (and can afford to overpay with) will help our own division rival in the years to come. Worst nightmare for you Cubs haters.

Still remain in the #9 slot. 1.5 GB of Oakland for 8th pick. 10.5 GB of Phillies for 1st pick.

#9 pick. 1.5 GB of the #8 pick. 11.5 GB of the #1 pick.

So apparently my buddy just hangs out with Saladino now. Tyler is crashing at a buddy's apartment in the city for the remainder of the year. He went over to my buddy's place Monday night and they played Fifa and my buddy picked out his walk-up song that he used last night. Pretty cool, I guess I need to go visit my buddy in Chicago so I can go hang out with Saladino. BTW, he said Chris Sale is the best one on the team in Fifa. Is that guy just good at everything?

QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Jul 21, 2015 -> 10:34 AM) Watch as 2015 first-round pick Carson Fulmer makes his debut in the Arizona League: http://t.co/Ah50PBAKTP http://t.co/FwCwbApb5F https://twitter.com/whitesox/status/623502617939804160 The reports actually came off better than the video, lol. I thought it was a little weak dribbler to 3B, not a smash. And I thought it was a lazy flyball to LF, not one belted deep. Not that it really matters, but I think we all painted an amazing canvas in our heads.

So I caught a little bit of The Score on the way home today and Lawrence Holmes was talking advanced stats on how BAD this team is....so I did some work of my own.... So this season, the Sox TEAM OVERALL OFFENSIVE WAR is....drumroll..... -3.3!! That's a NEGATIVE number. We are BELOW replacement level, and Jose Abreu is a stud hitter. The Phillies, the 2nd worst team in baseball is at a 2.0 WAR. POSITIVE 2.0. That's a massive difference between 29th and 30th. We are also last in baserunning, at -17.6....last in wRC+ at 78 (An average offense is supposed to be 100)....last in defensive WAR at -39.4....We beat the Padres on team OBP...by .001....We beat the Royals on BB% by 0.1%....We beat the Braves in ISO power by .005..... Basically we are the worst or 2nd to worst at....getting on base.....power.....defense....baserunning....scoring........ But how about compared to EVERY TEAM SINCE THE YEAR 1900???? 115 years of baseball? Tens of thousands of teams?? 7th worst..... Wow. Depress yourselves at your own leisure.... http://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=...0&sort=20,a

I'll be honest, it felt good to not have to update this thread for a while. But losing 3 of 4 games to the Royals really spins us back to reality. Currently have the #9 pick. 1 GB of the #7 pick. 11.5 GB of the #1 pick.
