Spencer Arroyo got pulled from the Birmingham game around the same time. That would be funny if there was a deal there. Probably not though.

Semien walked again. I think that's 14 out of 15 getting on base.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 05:33 PM) Yes, every manager should be judged on his win loss. When the payroll is over 100 million, yes he should. He's getting a free pass because he's Robin Ventura. If Mark Parent or Joe McEwing got the job at the same time, and the team was playing like this, everyone would be calling for the manager's head.

Trayce Thompson homer. Spencer Arroyo pulled after 4 innings (traded!)

Sox 16-38 the last 54 games. That's two months of playing .296 baseball. But Ventura is doing a fine job.

Semien K, BB, 2-run single

Alright, let's see if he gets on the plane....

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 12:08 PM) i don't think there would be a need for that. Cards would get a starter to fit in right behind Wainwright and an obvious SS upgrade all signed through next year. No chance we need to add to that. I hope not, but I'm giddy thinking about a team taking Alexei's contract off our hands.

If the Sox move Peavy and Ramirez to St. Louis, and the Sox get back Wong and other good prospects, maybe the Sox have to include a minor leaguer that's not quite ready, but potentially good...like Micah Johnson. We'll see in 75 hours or less.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 11:35 AM) What new shows are you guys going to check out in the fall?? Thinking I might try some of the new comedies on CBS and also Hostage Fox is doing a remake of Gavin & Stacey, a BBC show that was on a few years. Here's the pilot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aukqHmIOMys Here's the trailer for Fox's Us & Them, which is a mid-season replacement: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0oMySm9Hew I'm hoping it's good, but can't see how they can translate it to the US.

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 08:36 AM) Who are the Sox getting for him? No idea where he's going, but I think they'll get that wrapped up before he's supposed to pitch again. It just doesn't make sense for the Sox to have him throw another pitch if they intend to trade him. And there are too many teams that want him not to get a deal done. I'll be stunned if he's the scheduled pitcher for the Sox on Tuesday morning for that night's game.

Peavy is getting traded Monday. They won't get to his start day.

Sanchez 3-5, triple, walk Danks, walk off sac fly in the 12th

Hawkins 0-4, 2 k's. Buddy Bell thinks his 18 HR, 50+ RBI are just fine though. Beck 6 shutout innings, 4 ks

Daniel Webb- 2 innings, hit, walk, 4 k's

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.
