QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Aug 20, 2017 -> 03:25 PM) He will but he should still be traded Even if we don't get anything of value?

QUOTE (Wanne @ Aug 18, 2017 -> 06:00 PM) at this point the Cards wouldn't surprise me at all. Like most have said...just how the hell a contender passed on him is mind boggling. It's not like he has this massive contract... $5.9 Million. Call it a Mil a month. Free Agent after this year.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Aug 17, 2017 -> 09:55 AM) How often does Rick Hahn piss in your cereal? Classy comment, Wite. Real classy. Did you learn responses like this in Moderator School?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 16, 2017 -> 02:07 PM) Good to know that Basabe and Diaz will never be good again. Tell me why you like that part of the Sale trade.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 16, 2017 -> 03:45 PM) ChicagoSports‏Verified account @ChicagoSports 2h2 hours ago After rapid bullpen turnover, the White Sox's closer situation is "fluid" http://trib.in/2x1iqpa via @ChiTribKane Which means that if anyone in the bullpen actually comes in and saves a game, he will be gone before the sun comes up.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 16, 2017 -> 11:48 AM) They made various changes in the development and scouting areas[/b], but also can't assume those are improvements either. And, it was still the new evaluators that got us Basabe and Diaz as part of the Sale trade. As good a prospect as Kopech is, he is not enough to justify trading Sale. We should have received 4 legitimate prospects, not just two. It did not take long to realize that it is Moncada and Kopech for Sale. And, it was the new evaluators that gave us the Shields/Tatis trade.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Aug 15, 2017 -> 11:53 PM) With Hanson's ego issues, I feel like you'd basically be cutting him by putting him on a phantom DL stint. Jose, what are we talking about here?

Giancarlo Stanton cleared revocable waivers. He can opt out after 2020. $26ish Million per yr for next 3 yrs. Would outgoing ownership have the testicles to do it? Dodgers must be salivating, but Marlins would never do it IMO.

QUOTE (PolishPrince34 @ Aug 13, 2017 -> 03:43 PM) Tatis JR. first 18 year old ever to reach 20/20 in a minor league season. Stats are crazy since April 21st. Where would he be on our Top Prospect List?

Last week's four game winning streak scared the poop out of the front office, and Clippard contributed to a few wins lately. He gawn.

It's a joke that Pipeline does not have Zavala in our Top 30. At least Future Sox has him pegged at # 27 in out composite list.

QUOTE (Sox-35th @ Aug 11, 2017 -> 09:44 PM) Jesus Christ, in a three hour broadcast you're crying about a 3-5 minute bit? What is wrong with you? "They made me try to remember Don Cooper's number!!! Why can't we go back to Hawk cursing at umpires and telling stories that my grandfather remembers and saying racist things about the non-white players?" Never heard that. One example, please? I could be wrong, but.... Now, you Chicago guys hear Hawk more than I do, since I only have the Comcast baseball package. Hawk is rarely on it. I just don't recall him sounding like a racist.

QUOTE (ReyLo @ Aug 11, 2017 -> 08:43 PM) Ross Gload Better looking than Gload

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 11, 2017 -> 09:05 PM) For everyone that complains about Hawk taking about old players, it's not much better with Sticks and Stone. I highly doubt much of the audience cares about players from the late 70s disagree.

QUOTE (steveno89 @ Aug 10, 2017 -> 10:14 AM) He's young so I'll give him some benefit of the doubt, but at the same time if he is truly an elite prospect he should be doing more than just holding his own. Next season will be telling as he gets bumped up to A+ Winston Salem. We need to see more pop and arguably more from the bat in general. Oh so true. We have to remember, the Yanks are very shrewd. That is, they might have given up on Rutherford as an "elite" prospect. Otherwise, they would not have let him go, possibly. AFL might be very good for him.

QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ Aug 11, 2017 -> 01:48 PM) If a player is in the majors they cease to be a prospect. Yes, except for September call-ups.

Victor Diaz has had a "spotty" season. Okay.

I sure wish Delmonico could play third.

QUOTE (Sleepy Harold @ Aug 8, 2017 -> 04:38 PM) Scott Merkin @scottmerkin 8s Rick Hahn said Luis Robert will finish the season in the DSL and then go through Instructional League action there. Do mean Instructional League HERE, or IL in The Dominican?

Everyone's favorite umpire got his butt suspended for calling out Beltre publicly.

Q gave up a three run bomb to Posey in first inning. Giants have a chance.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 8, 2017 -> 08:42 PM) With no outs, you're supposed to tag You don't tag up at first unless you are pretty damn sure the ball is going to be caught. Just saw why.

Danish with a 10-hitter.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 8, 2017 -> 06:41 PM) His numbers have actually gotten better with his promotion. Unreal. Prospect # 27 per Future Sox. Should be higher.
