If the Sox want to trade Rios, they'll trade Rios. The problem is what teams are willing to give up for him. Buddy Bell was on with Rongey today, and said the Sox have specific players that they want from other teams, and if they can't get them, they won't trade guys.

Another walk for Semien. At bat started with two strikes looking. Gotta regular Wade Boggs on our hands.

It's almost like Rios likes his cushy life in Chicago and he doesn't care about playing in a pennant race.

I've never hated a White Sox team this much.

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Jul 27, 2013 -> 08:36 PM) it would be funny to see sale end the season at like, 6-15, 2.5 ERA, .98 WHIP. would be the perfect example for the "wins/loses" mean nothing argument. Decisions are pointless, but I still want Sale off the hook. They can't blow this opportunity.

Get Sale off the hook at least.

QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Jul 27, 2013 -> 08:25 PM) Wilkins in the game now. Wise was pulled. Interesting. Pretty common for the guys on rehab assignments to come out early. Ishikawa moved to the outfield.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 27, 2013 -> 08:20 PM) Yeah but did he hug his teammates? Reach arounds.

Snodgress has lowered his ERA by like 1.5 runs over his last 5 starts.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 27, 2013 -> 08:16 PM) His prime should be like 3-4 years away, maybe longer. Yes, I know.

It would really suck if Sale pitches in his prime for bad teams.

Semien homer. Giddy up.

Hand to the forehead.

2 walks for Semien.

Konerko looks like a ghost.

Miguel Cabrera misses 5 games, first AB back...homer.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 27, 2013 -> 07:00 PM) Beyond dumb. The one guy that actually hits in that line up. The Ishikawa signing is real curious. Makes me wonder if Konerko is being under the radar about an early exit. Probably not, but you never know.

Bradley walks Black too. Jacobs hits into an around the horn dp.

Looks like Archie Bradley is wild tonight. Semien walked on 5 pitches. Saladino walked on 4 pitches.

100 hours to go. I've given up guessing what's going to happen. I just hope they find acceptable deals for Peavy and Rios, and if they deal Dunn and Alexei---I'll be ecstatic.

If they have any intentions of giving him big league time this season, which isn't likely, I'd probably send him to AAA for August, and then maybe Chicago in September if he's still killing it. At the very least, I think he's played his way into being a top 5 prospect for the Sox.

Nice play for Semien last night at 3B. http://www.milb.com/multimedia/vpp.jsp?content_id=29180265 There's a link to Hawkins double where he tried to stretch it to a triple. Bad play, but at least he was hustling.

QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Jul 26, 2013 -> 10:46 PM) Because Garza's value falls through the floor after the 31st. Peavy is signed through next year and still could command a haul this winter or next trade deadline. That's true, but I'd still like the Peavy decision (one way or the other), done before he takes the mound.

QUOTE (winninguglyin83 @ Jul 26, 2013 -> 10:44 PM) That's for his time in both organizations -- High A Boston, AA Boston and Birmingham? That's for Semien. Not Jacobs.
