Quin

Yency Almonte is getting more and more intriguing. Especially for a guy acquired for two months of Gordon Beckham.

That's one patriotic photo of Danish.

I like Hector. I like Eaton. Eaton was better last year, Hector this year. Eaton makes more sense for a team carrying Sale, Quintana and Rodon. It worked out for everyone that wasn't the D-Backs.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 01:24 PM) Danks. I don't know if I'd be excited or worried if we swapped Ethier and Danks. Ethier is locked in longer term, but fortunately not when Sale, Q or Abreu are up. I do think that EJ and Ethier would improve the team this year.

Don't know how I feel about Bonifacio and Gordon together.

QUOTE (Lip Man 1 @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 01:37 PM) Want to thank Daniel for publishing my stories after I send them to him. Always appreciated. Mark I want to thank you for giving me awesome stories, Mark.

I don't think the Blue Jays have the ammo for Q after the Tulo deal

http://www.chicagonow.com/soxnet/2015/07/b...history-part-2/ Some familiar names in this one: Yaz, Hawk and Harry Caray.

No more Hoffman? My desire to deal with the Jays just about died.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 27, 2015 -> 11:57 PM) They might trade him to us to try and get Anderson now Hard pass.

QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Jul 27, 2015 -> 11:55 PM) Deals for Shark to TOR and SF in place. The deals are sitting there. KW is still "all in" on '16 and Rick is not so there's that drama right now. Interesting.

Well didn't see that coming.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 27, 2015 -> 11:07 PM) Don't be a Danks-downer. Believe in Danks as I do and you will be rewarded tenfold! Danks! It ain't easy pitching in Fenway. The Cult of Danks

If we're going for it, I don't want to give up any of the four main starters for Puig. If you could build a package around prospects for Puig - I'm 100% in. But otherwise, the Sox need Sale-Q-Shark-Rodon intact to make a push.

Good s*** Carlos and Adam. It's so much nicer than where we were a few weeks ago.

God. Damnit.

Albers leaves his top button undone. Like with the Cubs, this irritates me for some reason.

There's no reason to not try out EJ at this point.

HUZZAH

QUOTE (Dunt @ Jul 27, 2015 -> 03:45 PM) I really enjoy that Cubs fans have gone from "holy cow, this is fun! Should they trade for David Price or Cole Hamels for their World Series push?!" to "Guys, we knew these rookies were going to struggle, the playoffs are still a year away" in a matter of a week. We went from dead in the water to "should we be buyers?" in the matter of one series.

I blame Corey Kluber's poison bullets.

Quintana is worth Schwarber plus two or three more interesting pieces. If Quintana were on any team other than the White Sox, he would be an All-Star twice by now.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 27, 2015 -> 12:21 PM) the only team the sox should assume they can beat are coming up (red sox) and Phillies. That we should assume we can beat a team ahead of us in rankings is ridiculous. I assume our pitching can hold down anyone. I also assume any pitching can hold down our offense.
