Injury?

QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jul 21, 2016 -> 07:42 PM) Teams with decade long rebuilds can't afford to keep their guys. That's a problem the Sox organization doesn't have. The Pirates are a great example. They had Bonds and they couldn't afford to pay him. Same with Bonilla. That's not the only reason. Just flat out poor scouting helps.

Well if they can get Urias back that helps the rotation at some point

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jul 21, 2016 -> 06:49 PM) Mired in mediocrity indeed. Well said Rick. Can't wait for a long overdue rebuild. Long and rebuild definitely belong with the way they've attempted to assemble a team. Ready for the decades to fly by.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 21, 2016 -> 06:05 PM) Phil Rogers on SportsTalk Live just said that Rangers have been pursuing Quintana the hardest. Great...I'll take Profar. Thank you.

Boston has the ammo...but I think I'd rather see him go to the Rangers or the Dodgers. Just as a pure me watching him during the game type of thing. I just absolutely hate the Red Sox.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Jul 21, 2016 -> 05:15 PM) They're waiting on pitching til off-season since free agency is weak. It's weak right now and the market is ripe. I dont know if waiting is going to help that much. Dom in Boston already overpaid for a SP. They could certainly fleece him or another team desperate for the playoffs.

All the Rangers trading Gallo for Sale suggestions on Twitter make me sick. I want Profar...not somebody who it's certainly questionable if he can make contact with the ball in the majors or not. Ideally though...you dont have the top pieces as prospects in either the Q or Sale trade. They should be major league ready players. I bet that's what Boston didnt offer in their package earlier this week.

QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Jul 21, 2016 -> 04:21 PM) Hahn sounds pretty resigned. He realizes the crap product on the field can't be hidden anymore. Well...he's part of the reason a crap product is out there. His pride and joy Avi Garcia blowing ass is a big part of that reason.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 21, 2016 -> 01:06 PM) This makes me want to vomit. Hopefully they are just slow-playing them to get more. Let's just think logically here... what signal would that send to Jerry? "Hey sorry man...but your going to be dead by the time we compete"? Exactly what he wants!

I bet it was the Red Sox....I dont think Texas would do that. All the butt hurt people on Twitter right now trashing the Sox for not trading Sale is amusing

Man the White Sox are leaking all sorts of s*** today

They play their cards right...they can fleece someone for our bullpen pieces. Now they probably wont...but here's hoping.

Boston could...but I would want pieces from their lineup. Not sure they would trade those.

No the real misery will be if prospects start failing...that's when the best of this forum comes out

QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Jul 21, 2016 -> 12:02 PM) #WhiteSox will have opportunities to move Zach Duke, who leads AL with 48 appearances. Signed for $5.5M next year. Many teams want LH pen. https://twitter.com/jonmorosi/status/756165236009291776 I've wanted Zack Duke gone the moment we signed him so this would be pleasant news.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jul 21, 2016 -> 11:50 AM) So is your plan at this point just staying put and trying to add pieces again next offseason? Serious question. That's probably what they would do yes and if the management stays that's what I would like them to do. I have zero faith that they can actually sell guys like Q and Sale for the correct price without severely damaging our future.

QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jul 21, 2016 -> 11:49 AM) If we're selling, we don't care who plays third base for the current team. Those home runs might get someone to bite at what is otherwise a bad player. I'm talking about next year. If you keep Sale and Q your going into next year with the same mentality as this past offseason.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jul 21, 2016 -> 11:46 AM) I see where you're coming from but if we're not going to trade any of our top trade chips then what's the point? Just try to reload again and again and again life we've been doing? Seems like a bad plan to me at this point. I 100 percent agree. Which is why I dont get trading Frazier. If they offload him who's playing 3rd base? I mean they arent giving up on next year I'm guessing. So trading him is silly too.

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 21, 2016 -> 11:39 AM) To put the tag "untouchable" on Eaton is foolish. Nobody has a gun to the Sox head to trade anyone, but they should listen, and again, be thinking solely about 2019 and beyond. Ok well they clearly arent. So trading Eaton is silly. His value is incredible right now. Sure you listen. But that's it. No need to actively shop one of the most valuable price wise and defenders in the league.

Trading Eaton? Absolutely not.

Texas needs relief help and stay far away from Gallo(not that they would get him anyway)

Well that gives Robin a good couple of months to start packing in advance. Maybe Rick Hahn too after it's over.

Joe West with a bulls*** call

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 18, 2016 -> 09:30 PM) Guess the Sox are paying Morneau a million ofr a few months to be weened on RH's only . I guess...and hoping Garcia doesnt make them look any worse.
