At least at this point, it looks like the pick is protected if KW signs some free agent.......

I've heard numerous Score commentators who have said they have heard there is no way the Sox pick up Frasor's option. I'm not so sure about that.

Has there been any official word if he has been shut down for the year due to a high pitch count at Cal? Just concerned that he is hurt.

Just heard he is out until at least Friday, that means he should go to the DL...........

I'm upset about the lack of spending on player development, but our major league payroll is one of the highest and I would never have suspected that.

Cubs spent $12 million..............

So which of these later round picks signings should we be excited about? Did KW go out on the limb for any of these guys?

I apologize if this has been covered previously, but what is the status of our second round pick Johnson, he has not pitched much?

I know we are all hanging on that there will be a last minute signing, but it is just not going to happen, not KW's style. Remember the last two years we waited and waited hoping Morgado and Grimes got signed.

Rios for sure, kills us in the field as well and terrible attitude.

KW is losing faith in Humber and after the fifth inning last night, I think that is what is causing KW to really think about acquiring starters. Whether you believe it or not, I do not doubt that KW asked for Diamond for Thornton and that scenario fits this model.

Is Viciedo playing?

Any update on Viciedo's thumb?

QUOTE (danman31 @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 08:47 PM) September has nothing to do with service time. I'd be shocked if he isn't included in those call ups. How many do we currently have on our 40 man roster? If he is added to the 40-man does that not impact service time or is it solely time with the big league club?

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 24, 2011 -> 07:33 PM) That's excessive. This franchise is in no position to deal future cost-controlled talent. Reed has been disgusting this year. Yes, that is totally excessive....................

I hope this gets settled prior to tomorrow's game/start of series with Detroit.

It is too much of a sign that Thornton did not pitch today?

What is Thornton's contract, three years $18 million?

I only like trading pitching for pitching, not to re-debate this, but look at the Swisher trade, same premise, two young pitchers for an underachieving outfielder. Here we go again.

The way our hitting has been this week, we might make Huff look like Steve Carlton tonight...............................

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 15, 2011 -> 07:36 AM) Scratch that, Baseball America now has him as signed. Is Parent some stud prospect or was this likely just a slight over slot payment?

Did the 30th round selection Parent from Texas A&M sign?
