That he isn't a starting OF on a White Sox playoff team. He's been great so far, but he will slow down and as just about every rookie does, struggle. Don't forget Trayce also still have loads of potential. He was always being regarded as raw, and is still only 24. There is no reason to think he cannot improve and become an everyday starting OF with experience in the MLB.

Montas is a beast. I'd like to see Alvarez in the AFL at this point

Fulmer 3 IP 0 H 0 ER 2 K 0 BB

The game is meant to be fun and for the players to have fun. It's a team sport and if it is something that brings them together then so be it.

I love it.

QUOTE (Dunt @ Aug 10, 2015 -> 10:05 PM) It's great Avi had a good night, but he still only has an OPS of .701 AFTER his home runs tonight. Temper the excitement a little, he has still had a miserable season. Also his basically rookie season. I'm fine with it. People, including myself, had unreasonable expectations for basically a first year player.

QUOTE (wsiskel @ Aug 10, 2015 -> 10:16 PM) Anderson hurt sliding into third on his triple. https://twitter.com/Dave_Gershman/status/630923999715831808 Hopefully nothing major.

I can still see the reason for both Noesi and Drabek. Penny will be the one to go if they determine Jaye/Montas is ready.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Aug 9, 2015 -> 07:44 PM) Notice how the team that made two big moves has been on fire. Yet we stood pat. That team also gave up a big part of their future for a push that will end in disappointment. Sorry you aren't winning in the playoffs with MB as your #2. As much as I love him.

Let's not believe news articles coming out, who are wanting to smear a professional athlete because that sells. I'm not defending nor advocating for someone. Let the investigation do it's part.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Aug 7, 2015 -> 10:35 AM) So the Police statement is being run with by media outlets without actually reading it. The statement says they are investigating an incident that occurred at Kane's house but didnt actually say they were investigating Kane himself. Interesting detail there. Good catch, I didn't realize that.

Nothing new, just an official statement that they are investigating an incident that occurred last weekend and are awaiting forensic results. No additional timeframe

Rodon/Fulmer/Adams/Montas/Danish/Guerrero/Lowry+Jay I absolutely love it.

I still like the potential of Trayce. I think he can end up being a solid regular with some pop.

Lol. HUGE DEADLINE FOR THE CUBS!

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 10:07 AM) With all the WC teams adding and were buyers, I'd be shocked if we didn't work something out. Pretty much have to if we want to compete. Toronto and Houston are a lot better than us right now.

QUOTE (Frank_Thomas35 @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 09:08 AM) I agree I don't want to give up Montas or Anderson. Or Avi but im good witth Davidson and or EJ EJ isn't a player you really want to give up. He's MLB ready and has proven that he can be a SP. Montas still probably has a >50% chance of ending up a reliever.

QUOTE (GreatScott82 @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 10:20 AM) I really have no clue what the White Sox plan on doing at the deadline? Adding a lefty bat between Melky and Abreu would be awesome heading into the final stretch. I'm assuming that is what they are looking for? CarGo is just as hot as Melky right now. In all honesty, what do you guys think it would cost to get him? We are no position to trade our top prospects. It wouldn't take someone like Anderson. I could see them asking for someone like Danish + May though.

QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 10:28 PM) I would honestly add two bats if I want a legit chance at competing. Puig will always be my first option. I don't think he's traded though without two starters going out or 1 starter we need and a hot prospect. The point is that we are buying now. So I would try for both CarGo and Justin Upton. We need protection around Abreu. And just DFA Adam LaRoche. Eaton Cabrera CarGo Abreu Upton Thatd be pricey

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 10:23 PM) Dead silent while the assassin is hard at work This. Seems like Hahn likes to be under the radar

QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 08:20 PM) Tyson Ross and Justin Upton got pulled from the Padres game Uh oh.

Upton wasnt traded, only Gomez

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 10:42 PM) Oh come on. A top 25 prospect, another top 100, our starting RF and a ML ready starter?....for good pitcher and rent of a good (not great) hitter? Upton has a .759 OPS and is a rent. Ross would be a good pitcher for us, but we don't need a pitcher right now. His hype exceeds his results. Neither Cueto and Tulo required a single top 50 prospect. Yet, somehow, we should pay far more for inferior players. My train of thought as well. I could see Avi, Montas, EJ, and maybe someone like Jaye.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 10:07 PM) That's overboard, don't need that much. I think Upton and Ross for Avi, Montas, Anderson, and Erik Johnson could be enough. Ross would give us insurance in case Samardzija doesn't resign. But if he does, this rotation is stacked for the next 5 years and still Fulmer to come up. If Anderson is in that deal you better have Upton wanting to resign. I'd be fine with that if you exclude Anderson and replace him with Trey M/Adams

QUOTE (LDF @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 10:05 PM) not i.... i have my own reasons... but oh well. I could still see it happening to get a high caliber MLB bat. Who knows though. If you want to compete you then have to go fill that rotation spot.
