Everything that gets out is by design. It's all posturing until it's done. Said it before- not shocked if it happens today. Not surprised if it happens July 31st at 3pm. Might be a little surprised if he's still on the team on August 1st. I do believe they want to move him this time.

I'm not big on ranking prospects, but I hope Spencer Adams is higher than Carson Fulmer on any list out there.

Chuck Garfien probably chomping at the bit to interview Phillips about his laughing fits.

I need Ken Rosenthal to make this all real. If he says something after the game tonight, then I'll legit think it's happening Wednesday.

Anyone checking minor league lineups tonight?

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 11, 2017 -> 06:42 PM) It's going to be the Braves and I am not a huge fan of their prospects There are probably 6-7 teams talking to the Sox. At some point, you just have to have faith the Sox know which package of players to take when the time comes to say yes. They've been scouting these guys for months, so just hope for the best when it happens- at least that's how I'm looking at it. If it's the Braves, I'd be disappointed because Quintana won't be in the playoffs this year, but they just have to take the best deal when it's good enough to pull the trigger.

QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Jul 11, 2017 -> 05:50 PM) So do you all think the Sox leaked the "Quintana is moving soon" bits to get the 29 other GMs to grab their nuts n get to work? I just think in general, there's a lot of posturing by everyone. He very well could get traded before Friday, but it wouldn't surprise me if he has 1-3 starts left with the Sox either.

15 games before the deadline. 6-9 would be nice...get a couple vs Cubs. 60 games after the deadline...20-40 would be tough viewing, but that could happen depending on who is left. 98 losses would be 2nd or 3rd pick.

Jeez, ya think Judge will win?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 10, 2017 -> 09:07 PM) I thought it was compelling at the very least. The one thing that bothers me about History Channel anymore is they make those shows so one sided now. I would have liked to have had it compared to an opposing view point. At the very least I thought the evidence was pretty impressive. Agreed about that. I took in all of the evidence they were giving, and it was all plausible, but I kept thinking there are people out there that would dispute everything point by point.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 10, 2017 -> 08:55 PM) How was the special? Forgot about it... It was good. Very interesting subject I didn't know much detail before this.

I hope three weeks from tonight we're all happy about 5/6 trades while the Blue Jays are kicking our ass.

I don't understand the need for brackets in this thing, but whatever.

Watching the Derby, and I miss Chris Berman. That's saying something. Edit: mute makes it better

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jul 10, 2017 -> 07:11 PM) Burger goes deep, Collins and Zavala both 2-2 so far I think Burger is going to pan out nicely. There were higher upside players they could have taken, but I think he's going to fit a role in the window of winning in a few years that's going to be needed.

Quintana starting Sunday would fit a schedule that keeps him away from July 30th or 31st. That probably makes sense.

They haven't announced it, and I wouldn't expect to hear anything until Wednesday or Thursday.

Saladino is probably ready.

Reds beat the Diamondbacks. The Sox go into the break with the 4th pick position. Also, if the Reds are making Raisel Iglesias available, I can see why the Nationals would be interested.

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 30, 2017 -> 06:53 AM) Interleague is half over, AL- 85 NL- 65 Since this, 17-8 in favor of the NL. AL- 93 NL- 82 By division: AL East 42-28 AL Cent 18-31 AL West 33-23 NL East 26-34 NL Cent 23-34 NL West 33-25

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 14, 2017 -> 06:03 PM) The Sox just got done with a quarter of a season playing .350 ball. Lot of road games and injuries, but it happened. 37-50 at the break, please. 38-49. Not bad, considering 1-5 against the A's.

Told ya

QUOTE (sin city sox fan @ Jul 9, 2017 -> 05:16 PM) Engel should lay down a bunt damnit! These guys are so stupid! Just stop man.

MLB Network has the Rockies feed.

Melky will break it up. He's like that.
