QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jun 22, 2015 -> 03:22 PM) I don't know if I would even do that. For reference, Castro is getting flipped in that deal. Also, let's make them take Danks and have Theo publicly say Rick Hahn is cooler than he is. And a bag of f***ing skittles because Cubs fans are idiots.

For arguments sake of a Sale + Samardzjia deal to the Cubs. Bryant, Russell, Schwarber, Soler, Edwards, Alcantara, Almora. Hell, I'll take Castro and throw in Alexei. GMAFB

Rongey posted an article about trading Sale. From the Facebook comments: Guy #1 Sale & Samardzija for Schwarber, Castro, Almora and Alcantara. Done. Guy #2 If they trade schwarber, ill be upset. Castro almora for sale.. Done Highway robbery tho. They would never trade sale for castro Guy #1 Castro and Almora would get you laughed off the phone. If you're the Cubs, the only guys you can say are off-limits are Bryant and maybe Russell. You just don't trade those guys, period. If you're the Sox... you can justifiably say, for a package of Sale + a Samardzija rental, that "we want any four names we want after that." Castro - also on a manageable deal - slots in nicely at 3B. Schwarber is the best bat - whether it's at C, LF or DH. Almora and Alcantara are both good prospects but the jury remains out.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 22, 2015 -> 02:39 PM) That would be amazing to offer Hickman 2 the full allotment. Would make a below average draft into a decent one And we'd have a catching prospect!

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 22, 2015 -> 02:11 PM) If we picked up Stalin Castro in a deal for John Danks for some unforseen miracle, we wouldn't keep him. He'd be dealt to another team who actually needs a SS, and we'd reload prospects. Never do I want Starlin Castro on the Sox. So for some reason if this happened, yes, Starlin gets flipped.

http://m.mlb.com/news/article/132044338/me...igible-sign-mlb Melissa Mayeux was added to the international registration list, becoming the first woman to do so. Obviously it's batting practice and fielding practice, but looks like she's got a smooth swing and looked good fielding those grounders. It'll be interesting to follow Mayeux. Sox should sign her, they need defense and people that can battle in at-bats.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jun 22, 2015 -> 10:18 AM) Just looked at this, and you are correct. Rodon is (or soon will be) off, same with Sanchez. Our next official T30 will be end of July or so, and it is very possible we could acquire some prospects before then. But with what we have now, assuming Fulmer signs and Mike Hickman doesn't, I guess I'd go with something like this (not heavily researched yet)... 1. Tim Anderson 2. Carson Fulmer 3. Micah Johnson 4. Frank Montas 5. Trey Michalczewski 6. Tyler Danish 7. Spencer Adams 8. Micker Adolfo 9. Jacob May 10. Adam Engel 11. Trayce Thompson 12. Chris Beck 13. Courtney Hawkins 14. Jordan Guerrero 15. Kevan Smith 16. Tyler Saladino 17. Jason Coats 18. Thad Lowry 19. Matt Davidson 20. Onelki Garcia 21. Corey Zangari 22. Cleuluis Rondon 23. Terance Marin 24. Luis Castillo 25. Amado Nunez 26. Andrew Wheeler 27. Eddy Alvarez 28. Jhoandro Alfaro 29. Keon Barnum 30. Jake Peter Next 10 (not necessarily in order): David Trexler, Jordan Stephens, Brian Clark, Zack Erwin, JB Wendelken, Yency Almonte, Robin Leyer, Johan Cruz, Mason Robbins, Danny Hayes Matt, where would you have Michael Hickman ranked if he signs?

QUOTE (bmags @ Jun 21, 2015 -> 08:51 PM) I probably would include Erik Johnson EJ no longer has prospect status.

Somehow I called that one while talking to my dad.

What the f*** does Jeff Bagwell have to do with anything, Hawk?

Tyler Flower should be released this inning.

Melky having himself a nice game.

uggggggggghhhhhhhh

OFFENSE! Also that gold medal. What the hell Alexei? That's amazing. Maybe it has powers that allowed him to hit.

Davidson 4-4 with two homers, EJ dealing, Micah's hot.

Nice job saving face Conor.

Conor, come on man.

At least they're battling today.

Does Quintana deserve better?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 21, 2015 -> 01:06 PM) http://www.mlbdailydish.com/2015/6/17/8796...nishment-Astros I agree with this. The Cardinals need to be absolutely slammed for this. While no sanctions ever hit the Sox, we know how much the Wilder scandal hurt the farm for years.

Blackhawks lead sports in TWTW. Stone sounds and looks miserable.

Hawk completely oblivious to the game.

Waiting for Hawk to compare Duncan Keith to Carl Yastrzemski
