Chris Sale to Astros potential package?
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 18, 2016 -> 02:46 PM) If Hahn trades Sale for near ready prospects and he goes on like most expect and a couple of the prospects fail, despite the calls for rebuild, prospects, prospects,prospects, it will be fun to read what a fool he was to make the trade. Just remember, having a highly ranked farm system doesn't mean years upon years of winning. Just check out the Twins. If the Sox decided to truly sell - so trading Sale, Q, Eaton, Abreu, Frazier, Melky, Robertson, Jones, Jennings, Duke - they'd probably walk away with far and away the best farm system in baseball. And then it would be a complete roll of the dice on whether it would work or not.

Chris Sale to Astros potential package?
QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Jul 18, 2016 -> 01:09 PM) That's a huge haul even for Sale. A more fair deal for both sides might look like Sale/Frazier to Houston for Bregman/Reed/McCullers/Martes/Tucker. Eh, when you're trading a Hall of Famer in their prime on a cheap deal, a lot needs to come back.

Was this a rumor or a proposal from MLBN?

7/17 Games
QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 17, 2016 -> 04:47 PM) Good lord Hansen.. that'll do. If the Sox really saw a simple fix and this is the result, dear lord. That's basically getting the #1 pick in the second round.

2016 Republican Thread
QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 15, 2016 -> 03:25 PM) Now that Drumpf picked a chump, you just know Hillary is dying to pick a woman to be her running mate. I'm sure she's just a tad bit torn however. She's probably not wanting to push her luck going with an all female ticket. My prediction is she'll do so, however. She knows Drumpf is weak and has no chance in hell of beating her. I'm sure she'd much rather have a female pal in Washington to shoot the breeze with on a daily basis the next eight years rather than some gruff man. My guess is she's dying to pull the trigger and name a fellow female but a tad scared SOME members of the public might freak out and be afraid of two women in charge. Is Warren on the record saying she won't accept a Veep bid? Dude. Not OK.

Drew Pomeranz to the Red Sox
QUOTE (shipps @ Jul 15, 2016 -> 05:02 PM) I am sure they matched up quite well but the Whitesox arent selling right now. No, the Sox just want to keep Sale and Quintana because they're trying to compete.

Truck Attack in Nice, France
QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 15, 2016 -> 03:29 PM) Are there any die-hard Republicans in this thread or on Soxtalk at all? Seems to me this is a Democrat-dominated board; in the vicinity of 90 percent to 10 percent. Terrible loss of life in this tragedy. What.A.World. Horror after horror every week. Bruh

2016 MLB catch all thread
QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jul 15, 2016 -> 07:53 AM) Inciarte hasn't been very good. Honestly think he was one of the most overhyped players on Soxtalk this offseason. I still like Swanson & Blair and definitely think they will easily win the trade (especially with Miller sucking), but it's not quite the haul people thought it was at first. It's still a big f***ing haul considering what their values were at the time.

Burdi Watch
QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 14, 2016 -> 11:35 PM) Remember when Nolan Sanburn was mentioned as a long-shot bullpen candidate/future closer when we acquired him from the A's? Not so much. Seriously? You just moan for the sake of moaning.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 14, 2016 -> 10:59 PM) If the Pomeranz trade is any indication of where the trade market is at, I am good with standing pat. Interestingly, Fulmer is one spot ahead of Espinoza on the MLB Top 100

Everyone points to Garcia, but it's Abreu's slide that's k
QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Jul 14, 2016 -> 06:28 PM) great post for any user but especially a mod. Seriously? Yeah, I'm allowed to post this. And also, the yawn was in response to Ron, because of course he jumped on this. His hate of Abreu is a SoxTalk meme at this point.

Rodon's Replacement in Rotation
QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jul 14, 2016 -> 06:11 PM) Why would they bring up Turner just to DFA when Rodon is back? Talk about bullpen depth but they just recalled Kahnle before the brak for the umpteenthtime. Maybe another FA or trade move is getting ready to be made? I think the theory to replace Beck with Turner makes the most sense.

2016 Democratic Thread
QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Jul 14, 2016 -> 04:58 PM) He doesn't really have skeletons in his closet. Unless you consider support for Sandinistas in Nicaragua back in the 80's skeletons. I don't. I mean relative to him. The rape fantasy thing was pretty bad. And incorrectly identifying someone as Muslim just because they had brown skin. We made fun of Hillary for calling boba tea "chewy tea". And while I don't care (because it isn't a big deal at all), if Hillary had a child out of wedlock we'd hear about it non-stop.

**Gary Johnson 2016 election thread**
QUOTE (CrimsonWeltall @ Jul 14, 2016 -> 04:35 PM) If the Libertarian Party could turn their libertarian-ness down from like an 8 to a 4, they'd actually be relevant. Their top-level message sounds really appealing and then once you dig into the party platform, you find all sorts of garbage. That being said, they have a decent chance of getting my protest vote again (bleh). If my state looks like Trump has a shot to win, I'll have to vote Hillary. Same for the Green Party. The thing is they need to tone it back a bit, then boom, relevant.

**Gary Johnson 2016 election thread**
QUOTE (raBBit @ Jul 14, 2016 -> 03:36 PM) What were you laughing at specifically? His general unease. He was being interviewed by a social media news company on a FB livestream and looked unsettled. Imagining that in a debate is hysterical. Now, he's a realest so I'll give him that. But saying guns work in Israel means they'd work here is laughable. That removing all taxes is a good idea because a can of pop will be $.73 and not $1. It was just so rough to watch.
