I think people need to start understand this. Nobody is going to give you good prospects and take on a huge salary for a decent pitcher at best. Nobody wants a terrible defensive OF player with a streaky offense. Nobody wants a mentally weak 2nd baseman who has been hitting terrible since the trade rumors have come out. Ofcourse as I say this one might get traded but still...The White Sox dont exactly have the best parts to sell off this trade deadline.

Welp take Danks off the list

I'll stick to what I've said for the past few weeks. No I dont think they will.

In other news as I posted in the Gordon thread the Giants are still looking at him according to Morosi

The fact that Noesi is still in the rotation is a miracle

Jon Morosi ‏@jonmorosi 2m #SFGiants still looking at 2B options, including Gordon Beckham, Emilio Bonifacio, Asdrubal Cabrera. Expand https://twitter.com/jonmorosi

I just love all the comments on MLB's facebook page when they post a video of Abreu. Half of them atleast are comments on how he needs to be tested for PEDs and the other half are just condemning with no evidence.

Jose Abreu is just incredible. But his bat speed is too slow

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Jul 29, 2014 -> 06:41 PM) You read the thing Jack Z today? They are a bunch of rascals and nobody wants to trade with them. Huh?

This is why the Mariners wont be trading for Viciedo anytime soon

Talked to Dan Hayes on Twitter. He said he hears that some of the Danks talk is manufactured.

http://www.baseballamerica.com/internation...usney-castillo/ Ben Badler mentions the White Sox as one of the teams interested and their history with Alexei moving from CF to SS.

I understand keeping Gordon until the trade deadline. But after that just release him. Seriously Cliff Lee looked better at the plate the other night than he has in a while.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 27, 2014 -> 03:58 PM) Not being able to see the game, but really Ventura's best option might have been having someone like Rienzo run for PK, as it was obvious De Aza was going to have to face a LHP in that inning. Oh well, still doesn't change my mind this team should sell in the next week. The only interesting pieces we have are maybe Danks and Alexei. Nobody giving up good prospects for trash players.

Why the hell is Gordon still on this team?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 27, 2014 -> 03:53 PM) Duh. He still has work to do. But, again, there are more important things to worry about than middle relief on a mediocre team. Yes didnt I already acknowledge that?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 27, 2014 -> 03:50 PM) The reason this team is loads better this year is directly because of the players that Hahn brought in here as well. Yes and? I understand what Hahn's done here. He just needs to do a better job in certain areas.

I can hear those phones lighting up to acquire Dayan's services

I picked up a pair of jeans and there was 3 scorpions on it....is that a bad sign?

QUOTE (peavy44 @ Jul 27, 2014 -> 03:31 PM) This game is over just start trading beckham danks dunn de aza tank belly plz hahn start trading people Uh... You think he hasnt been fielding calls?

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 27, 2014 -> 03:28 PM) It isn't going to get fixed now. When did I say now? Why would we trade assets for bullpen help now?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 27, 2014 -> 03:25 PM) TBH, he has more important things to worry about. He does...but his acquisitions that bombed were part of the problem. Attempting to remedy that would be nice.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 27, 2014 -> 03:23 PM) And that is why Ventura/Cooper don't want to go to the pen. Hahn attempting to fix at some point would be ideal
