QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 23, 2013 -> 03:21 PM) STOP. It's just not going to happen with this year's team. Not until we're 20 GB. It was a joke, moron.

I can't answer it any other way, so if it's bulls***ty, sorry... If teams asked about Reed and the deal made sense, hell yes, I'd trade him. Sox could use Jones as closer. Simon Castro could be an option for this team not winning this year. And Daniel Webb may be an option at closer at some point. So the short answer is yes.

They have an extra roster spot on Friday. Even though they don't need a 6th starter, maybe they give Johnson a look against the Indians.

So...how about the Mad Men finale tonight?

Johnson 6 IP, 5 H, 1 ER, 5 BB, 6 K 102 pitches, 55 strikes, 47 balls

Blue Jays are going to win 11 in a row. That's one way of getting back into it. Maybe the Sox should try that. Or maybe a 26-5 like a few years ago.

Morel at .283. Not having a bad season.

20th birthday for Tim Anderson. Have a day.

The Sox got back to 24-24 and fell apart. The Royals got back to 34-34, and they fell apart.

Probably some jitters. He knows people are watching.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 23, 2013 -> 12:56 PM) NO NO NO. Sanchez MIGHT be more like another version of Escobar, but no way should we give them Thompson when he's looking like the most likeliest to be a starter for us in the next 2 years as far as outfielders go. It would be like when Michael Morse was the throw-in with the Reed/Olivo trade...Thompson, if he figures it out, maybe it won't happen until 4-5 years from now, but he could be an extremely valuable player and we can't just trade him like that when he has a lot more valuable to our future Sox projected teams than he does to any contenders in the present. Let's put it this way---if I'm dealing Crain and Reed to the Tigers, I'm getting Nick Castellanos. There's no deal if that doesn't happen. So if Crain and Reed aren't enough, how do you spice it up on both sides to make it a fair deal for both teams?

Mark Gonzales was talking about them maybe bringing up Johnson for Friday's doubleheader since they get the extra roster spot. Doesn't seem like a move they need to make with off days on Monday, Thursday, and the following Monday. They don't need to pitch anyone on short rest, so a bullpen arm would make more sense.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 23, 2013 -> 12:31 PM) It makes zero sense for the Sox to be trading away young guys whose value might grow with time. It depends on the deal. Nobody is untradeable.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 23, 2013 -> 12:17 PM) Why would the Tigers want Sanchez? Infante can't play 2B forever. Sanchez is still a decent prospect. I think he'll be a good player in a couple years. If that's not enough, would you give up Trayce Thompson instead?

Feel free to call me stupid, but how about this idea: Sox trade Crain, Reed, and Carlos Sanchez to the Tigers. Sox get back Bruce Rondon and Nick Castellanos, and maybe a throw in bullpen arm (Putkonen?). We give up two bullpen arms that will give them a huge shot of winning the World Series this year, and a good 2B/SS prospect for the future...plus Reed will be team controlled for a while. They give up a future closer that they don't feel is ready right now, and Castellanos, who is a very good prospect. How bad?

Axelrod vs Shields https://twitter.com/whitesox/status/3488271...9836162/photo/1 Weather permitting. Might be some rain today.

Erik Johnson has been promoted to Charlotte.
