QUOTE (iamshack @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 08:48 PM) I just get the feeling Semien is going to make us regret trading him. Nah. He could be a decent player, but the Sox are much more counting on Tim Anderson in the long run. Plus they have the 8th pick in the draft next year. I know the Beckham jokes are coming, but Semien is the guy to trade now for one year of Samardzija. And then you hope he likes it here, and they can lock him up for 5-6 years.

QUOTE (southside hitman @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 08:24 PM) Shouldn't scare you…I would love that deal for the Sox. I am nervous it will be another top 10 prospect in addition to Semien. Scared was the wrong word. I thought he was reporting a real deal.

Gregor scared me there until I got to the end of the sentence. Man. Noesi- maybe I'm being too optimistic, but I think he could turn out to be a real good story for the Sox. I kinda don't want him to go.

Thanks for the late breaking news, Bruce. Just posting this because some of the responses are funny. https://twitter.com/MLBBruceLevine/status/542120297596338176

The cryptic tweet has jumped the shark. Call me when s*** is done.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 01:55 PM) Meh, if we were going with a weak stick at backup C, would've preferred a good framer What's his SIERA?

QUOTE (daggins @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 01:53 PM) Well there's your backup catcher. With 5 on the 40 man you'd have to think one of Phegley or Kevan Smith will be waived. Or Flowers gets packaged in a trade.

Interesting. 40 man full

Nobody got in. Typical. Maury Wills got more votes than Minoso. Joke. There are way too many former players on that committee, with too many biased opinions. I'd like to see who voted for whom.

It would be great if Viciedo goes this week just to get it off the checklist, but he's gotta go before full squad reports in late February. It's over for him here. And the return will be relatively low, and guess what? Who cares!

QUOTE (hi8is @ Dec 7, 2014 -> 01:36 PM) Ovah! If it was a different time of year - Id wish Kenny best of luck... But as others pointed out: now is NOT the time for this... No matter how you feel about him. Yep.

Golden Era Committee vote is tomorrow. The announcement is Monday. Here's hoping those voting get a good night sleep and do the right thing. If Minnie Minoso doesn't get it in, it would be a damn shame.

Said Rodon could succeed in either role from the beginning. (I still think he starts in the minors) Montas could be in the back of the bullpen. (Again, I think he's in the minors) I completely agree next week is going to be very active for trades. Should be a lot of fun.

He's actually on right now. Changed to 9.

KW on the Score at 9:00 if that floats your boat.

Sun Times reported the Sox hope to bring Snodgress back on a minor league deal.

Two things that would be nice to see in the next week: 1) Hahn get the guy that he couldn't at the trade deadline...whomever that is. 2) Get Viciedo off my team.

Hahn speaks going into the Winter Meetings... http://espn.go.com/blog/chicago/white-sox/...s-meetings-near

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Dec 5, 2014 -> 03:21 PM) Relievers get 9 million a year? Since when? Herrera, Davis, Holland helped

QUOTE (LDF @ Dec 5, 2014 -> 03:12 PM) i am a little confuse. are you asking for Hahn to do something, like to trade Sale? No. Just the tweets from people 'in the know' like Garfien, Hayes, Merkin, etc. It's getting a little old talking about what they might do. I just want to see what they actually do in the next 5-6 days. Obviously Sale won't be traded.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Dec 5, 2014 -> 02:52 PM) Chuck Garfien @ChuckGarfien · 48m 48 minutes ago Rick Hahn says he's had a lot of inquiries about his high-end players. Zzzzzzzzzzzz... Do something!

Andrew Miller- Yankees- 4/36

Matt Heidenreich returns to the Sox system.
