QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jul 28, 2014 -> 10:17 PM) Braulio "A Better Prospect Than Rangel Ravelo According To MLB.com" Ortiz walked 4 in 2 innings tonight, gave up 3 hits and a run with 2 strikeouts and lowered his Birmingham ERA to 11.25. How the heck did he earn a promotion to AA? He wasn't that good with the Dash either.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 28, 2014 -> 09:03 PM) That statement (although it was more in jest as Montas and Anderson had just gone done to injury, Davidon/Johnson/Semien were struggling) and Mitchell Boggs as the closer hasn't worked out very well. Semien will be fine. I like his hit tool and he can still work a walk and has good power. Davidson's power is still there at least but he has no contact right now, I'd still make that trade 10 times out of 10. Johnson scares me the most because he lost 3 mph on his fastball and his control went to s***.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Jul 28, 2014 -> 08:33 PM) He's been awful, he personally cost Peavy a couple runs the other day. Sometimes I wonder what these front offices are thinking, wishcasting Uggla or Morales as anything other than useless replacement level players at this point is beyond silly. I guess every GM thinks that in the right situation an older talented" player will turn it around. Heck, KW did it with Griffey when he was washed up. Well Uggla was real low risk, giving him a minor league deal.

Could just be a bad year for Davidson and Johnson, they could always rebound next season. Both are young. And who was it that said Angel Sanchez was the 2nd most exciting pitcher in the system lol? Ever since he said that, Sanchez has been getting lit up.

Uggla in 3 games with the Giants, 0-8 with 4 Ks and 3 errors.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 28, 2014 -> 06:58 PM) In all honesty, it is pretty unrealistic that Beckham is going to put a team over the top. Same to be said about DV. Danks might really help you get in and I can even see DV for a team with really bad offense, but when you take a step back, these are some of our weaker links (excluding Danks) and both DV and GB are below league average players (thus unless you have a major sieve you are filling, they aren't going to be major difference makers). As I keep telling people, odds of this team significantly upgrading its talent pool are pretty minimal through trades at the deadline. The valuable chips we have are staying put and the guys we would be interested in dealing have very little, if any value on the market, and for Sox, only value is if there is a young player you can plug-in their stead. If not, not much of a point and you might as well "try" to see how much closer you can get and I wouldn't be surprised if that is Hahn's approach. The exceptions to this rule are any veteran reliever we have (cause they are interchangeable and we have plenty of young arms (didn't say good) that we can give a chance to and normally you can get some sort of intriguing low level talent for them), Alexei (and only if you can net an impact, major league ready top 75 or so prospect and another 1 to 2 high upside guys), and Danks (not because you'll get good talent, but if you can clear his contract, it is worth it because worst case, his production in the FA market can be replaced at that price, however, that would not be a preferred approach, as you can most likely find better production out on the market or if you can acquire the right assets, internally, and thus, if you can swap his contract and get flexibility, you do it. I also expect Hahn to be quietly looking at acquiring assets, maybe getting involved as a 3rd team where we are giving another team assets for one of the younger assets getting moved (who might fill better needs then the guys we move). I too was thinking this. Cosart is available, so that got me thinking a little bit.

QUOTE (LDF @ Jul 28, 2014 -> 06:56 PM) looking at his profile, I find that I like McHugh the most. do you have any useful info on him it would be appreciated ???? http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/m/mchugco01.shtml That's McHugh's profile, as you can see he's already 27 and just seemed to figure it out this year. Keuchel and Cosart are still young, although they would be more expensive, have a better track record.

Micah 2-2 Semien 1-1

QUOTE (chisoxfan310 @ Jul 28, 2014 -> 06:41 PM) Wish we could grab one of the right handers. Both are controllable through 2019 I'd take Kuechel, Cosart, McHugh in that order.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jul 28, 2014 -> 05:57 PM) Always the possibility that Sale is just improving at this age. That said, Kershaw to me is the best pitcher in baseball but Sale is right there with him. I agree. Kershaw is easily the best pitcher in the MLB right now and has been the last 2 years. That said, Chris Sale is the 2nd best lefty in the game and a top 5 pitcher in the game.

670 The Score ‏@670TheScore 6h We had @JonHeymanCBS on earlier, and he said John Danks is a "most likely" target for #Yankees. Details: http://cbsloc.al/1l7pnIy

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 28, 2014 -> 05:49 PM) The Sox would have to sweeten the package for Murphy. Disagree, maybe if anything send some money their way but the Yankees have 4 legit catching prospects and it could all depend on who they value more. So maybe they value Murphy the least and Hahn can get him for cheap.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 28, 2014 -> 04:02 PM) •The White Sox have had scouts watching the Yankees‘ surplus of minor league catchers in recent weeks, fueling speculation that the Yanks would like to acquire John Danks. Per MLBRumors Things going to be interesting these next few days.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jul 28, 2014 -> 01:26 PM) Danner is about to turn 23, and he's a bench guy in AZL, so I wouldn't read too much into this. Probably just Kanny needs a 4th OF or a temporary injury fill-in. Oh ok. Makes sense then. Thank you, I've been impressed with this Suiter kid though, I think he deserves a promotion.

FutureSox.com ‏@FutureSox 2m Roster move: OF Michael Danner, 34th rd pick this year, promoted from AZL to @Intimidators Interesting move. I wonder why Danner over Michael Suiter. Suiter has been killing the ball in Arizona

http://www.milb.com/scoreboard/index.jsp?s...mp;ymd=20140728 Charlotte- Wang Birmingham- Sanchez Kannapolis- Brennan Great Falls- Thompson AZL & DSL- TBA Winston Salem is off today.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 28, 2014 -> 11:18 AM) Appel got promoted to AA with something like a 9.62 ERA, fwiw. And Astros players are livid at that decision.

QUOTE (daggins @ Jul 28, 2014 -> 09:36 AM) Considering the cost it might be Hahn's best trade to date. Peavy trade may pay more dividends down the line but yeah I like Eaton. Any way we can kickstart a campaign to buy him bionic hamstrings? Jeff Soptic for Conor Gillaspie was his best in my opinion. But I love Adam Eaton, instant fan favorite, plays baseball the right way.

QUOTE (peavy44 @ Jul 27, 2014 -> 03:13 PM) Should have kept carroll in Stop it. He was leaving everything up that last inning. Good move to take him out.

QUOTE (GreatScott82 @ Jul 26, 2014 -> 10:36 AM) I'm very curious to see what SF gave them. Peavy didn't last 1 full year in Boston. What a difference a year makes. Red Sox get Giants #2 prospect LHP Edwin Escobar and #11 prospect RHP Heath Hembree

Jon Heyman ‏@JonHeymanCBS 6m peavy goes to giants for minor league pitchers #redsox #SFgiants

Giants and Red Sox were in serious discussions regarding Peavy late last night according to Rosenthal.

Yeah I didn't see the sucker punch either. But that was definitely entertaining. Farrell started it all with that shove.
