QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 22, 2013 -> 11:02 PM) Honestly if Hahn doesn't trade Peavy, Rios Crain and Lindstrom I'll be mad because I just want the rebuilding to happen and get young talking into the system. I agree 100%...especially about Peavy and Rios. Cut bait, get something fair, and move on without them.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 22, 2013 -> 10:44 PM) I don't see how they don't trade Peavy. I think he's gone by the deadline, same with Lindstrom and probably Crain. I don't think Rios/Ramirez get dealt. I'm saying Rios goes too--Pittsburgh makes sense, and if Nelson Cruz gets busted, the Rangers will call. Alexei...no. His remaining contract is too big to take on. Sox would have to eat too much. I also think there will be one surprise deal that nobody sees coming.

QUOTE (jthunder93 @ Jul 22, 2013 -> 09:55 PM) I think we know who to blame for Snodgress losing his no-hitter. Sammy Ayala?

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 22, 2013 -> 09:46 PM) You guys are f***ing nuts...wth did you expect the guy to say? "We'll, I can get off on a technicality here but I'm not going to pursue it because I'm an honest guy. You caught me...I'm guilty." If you're Ryan Braun, of course not. Because he's a dirty, lying, piece of s***.

I can't wait for the trades to start coming so there's something real to talk about with the Sox. Speculation and bad baseball is old.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 22, 2013 -> 09:29 PM) While I am flabbergasted as to how Alexei made that error, Ramon Troncoso on his rump is a nice representation of our season He's this year's Ryan Bukvich.

It's over. Single.

One down.

The Brewers should absolutely be able to void his contract, and have Braun go away forever. I'm so sick of these s***heads.

Pee collector should file suit immediately. And how about the teammates that showed up to his press conference? How are they feeling today?

QUOTE (PolishPrince34 @ Jul 22, 2013 -> 04:42 PM) My gut tells me the Red Sox are going to make the major move to get Peavy and Crain. They are loaded with Solid prospects in the infield and starting pitching. I've always thought packaging Peavy and Crain would maximize a return, but Crain needs to return and pitch a couple times. It would be nice to see a bidding war from a few teams.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Jul 22, 2013 -> 11:57 AM) The Rongey interview from White Sox weekly? Really? That's weird. Rongey asked about it because he said he'd been getting texts and messages for weeks to ask about Hawkins. Yeah, I don't know why they would cut something out. I remember back in spring training Bell mentioned a pitcher that retired that morning, and when the interview hit the podcast, they cut it out. So maybe it's a coincidence, or maybe he said something that he shouldn't have and somebody above him had that part of the interview cut out for the podcast so it can't be rebroadcasted. I missed it live this weekend, so I really don't know if he said anything that was questionable.

Only watching Dexter just to see how it ends. This season has been boring. Should have ended after 5 seasons.

Late to the conversation, but the thing about the difference between Kannapolis and Winston-Salem... While I can see the difference in pitching might be negligible, I look at it from a confidence standpoint. He's going back to Winston-Salem next year. There's no way he can go to Birmingham to start next season. So if he would have started at Kanny, they could have still promoted him to W-S in 2014, where he feels like he's moving up, rather than staying in the same place---which could affect his confidence and attitude. It should have been explained when he went W-S in late 2012 that he was only going there to get more at-bats, but he'll be at Kanny in 2013. But what's done is done now. Hopefully Hawkins is an improved player next year. BTW, the podcast version of the Bell interview cut out the part where they talked about Hawkins. I don't think that's an accident.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 19, 2013 -> 02:05 PM) Given the similarities between 2005 and this year, I'm sure the Sox will win 1-0 And then go 50-16 the final 66 games like 1983.

QUOTE (MEANS @ Jul 19, 2013 -> 01:27 PM) Peavy to pitch Saturday vs Braves No pressure or anything, but we really need him to be good for two starts.

The June 12 game will be made up September 23 at 7:10.

Great start for Spencer Arroyo. 7 inn, 4 hits, 0 runs, 0 bb, 5 k

Ravelo was replaced as a pinch hitter and he was DH-ing tonight. For the next 13 days, if I see something like this, I'm going to assume the player was traded. Seriously though, the deadline can't get here soon enough.
