QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 3, 2016 -> 12:51 AM) How can Steverson not take Anderson under his wing? There's no way a paid hitting coach can condone this style of hitting. There has to be a way to get Anderson to be more selective. A walk truly is as good as a hit and he simply does not have the ability or maturity to draw a walk. His defense has been a huge surprise. Definitely see him as an above average SS and wasn't expecting that. Now we just need to work on being more selective and patient. Hard thing to do at the major league level. One thing Anderson has shown when being promoted it takes a month or two where he starts to show progress in this area. Sox fans need to be patient with Timmy.

WTF

I'm now officially nervous. This will be a major blunder if they don't trade pieces such as Robertson, Frazier, Melky, Gonzalez, Shields, etc. Blown opportunity.

Beltran for Dillon Tate confirmed

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Aug 1, 2016 -> 01:32 PM) Holy s***, the Giants gave up Bickford and Susac for Will Smith Wow that's a haul for freckin Will Smith. Susac will be average to better average starting catcher. Still fighting getting over the concussions he sustained 1 1/2 years ago, but starting to show signs of his old self.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Aug 1, 2016 -> 12:11 PM) Fernando Abad to Boston for Pat Light Pat Light will be a very good reliever very soon. Great move by Minnesota.

Oakland robbed Dodgers for 2 month rentals. Holmes is the steal in that deal

Want nothing to do with Severino as a headliner piece. He is definitely a reliever in my books. Severino doesn't use his lower part of his body and uses all arm. He is an injury waiting to happen. Wait a second he's already has an arm injury. Stay away another over hyped Yankees prospect.

I'd have a hard time believing we can get Robles. A future stud-5 tools. Would have to throw some money in that deal to get him.

QUOTE (Special K @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 09:26 AM) None of those deals entice me... especially not the Cubs deal. Baez is one of those players who will suck on the white sox. Never get on base, strike out a ton, and hit some homers. We would essentially be giving up a hall of fame pitcher in his prime for a better version of Matt Stairs. Don't get me wrong, Stairsy wasn't a bad player in his prime, but not worth Sale. I would do any of those 3 deals in a hearbeat

I feel their only 3 contender teams that can pull off a trade for Sale that carry the offense talent we need to bring to the organization: Red Sox, Rangers, and Cubs. Houston can also be included, but I'm only sold on Bergman with Houston organization. I can't see the Sox making a major trade with the Cubs this this year or even in the future. Dodgers have the depth to get involved, but don't have the upper echlon hitters that we need to upgrade our offense. It really leaves us with the Red Sox and Rangers. Starting point: Red Sox: Moncado, Benintedi, Devers, Kopech, PTBL: Groome for Sale and Robertson Rangers: Profar, Gallo, Brinson, Ortiz, Tavarez, De Leon for Sale If Cubs get involved: Schwarber, Baez, Jimenez, Torres, Happ for Sale. You have to really hurt the Cubs if your trading a Chris Sale to them.

This is a head scratcher for me. Sox are defintely Pushing their prospects too quickly when it seems they need more time to develop and being more consistent start to start. Downward trend with the K's is very troubling.

Yikes lets hope it's a minor. Sounds like pateller tendon issue

Your new infield would be: 3B-Gallo SS-Anderson 2B- Profar 2B chance to flip flop Anderson and him position wise 1B -Abreu Trade Frazier to the Mets for Plawecki/C and Nimmo/OF. Nimmo becomes your new CF and putting back Eaton in RF where his defense was Gold Glove caliber. Plawecki gives you a high ceiling young Catcher. Team offensively becomes very credible for the future.

Brinson and Gallo are Top 25 prospects. Gallo would be on your major league roster. This would also give you the chance to trade Todd Fraizer and get some more valuable young pieces. Brinson is an OF prospect with an enormous ceiling .

Profar was the #1 prospect 2 years ago. He's finally healthy and showing all his tools. They will never trade Mazara.

Texas is in serious need of starting pitching. Lewis, Darvish, and Holland all on the DL. One of the few teams that have enough to trade for Sale. Need to have serious discussions with them. Sale and Navarro For Profar, Gallo, Brinson, Luis Ortiz, Yenson Yrizarri SS ton of potential, Michael De Leon SS big international signing a year ago. Getting a lot talent on the cusp and down the road.

Lot of high ceiling talent that needs to play everyday. Some good talent will be sitting on the bench. Hopefully some shuffling will happen quick. Interesting how the catcher and infield positions turn out.

What's going on with Micker Adolfo? Injured or going to Arizona again?

Thanks for all your hard work and dedication to the Sox.

Collins just crushed a 3 run homer off Dunn. Crushed it!!!

Mayo wasn't a huge fan. Very average stuff, but good command.

Giants take Krook

THe organization needs some hitters. Fisher has a really nice level swing.

Jameson Fisher. Solid hitter
