QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 11:16 AM) Where are you going to play Franklin, with this trade? You're dealing Ramirez as well? Ackley's a natural 2B, but he has been playing LF for the Mariners. Do you honestly want someone who hits like Gordon Beckham playing a corner OF spot? YIKES. Franklin would be fine if he could play SS everyday, but he's probably better suited for 2B or 3B. We have five million 2B prospects, so this whole thing doesn't make much sense. He's kind of like Dan Uggla-Lite. I agree Caufield. Ackley and Franklin do not fit on this team. Its pitching prospects, outfielders or catchers.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 10:22 AM) I guess I'd be okay with a catcher AND a pitcher, but I'm still not going to be particularly happy if Beckham and DeAza are both still around next year because we couldn't find someone who would take them off our hands. No way Beckham is on the team next year, not with Johnson Semien and Sanchez ready for the show soon.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 10:18 AM) Why? Don't you want to aim higher than that? Ask for SS Chris Taylor and C Tyler Marlette. http://www.baseball-reference.com/minors/p...id=taylor004chr http://www.baseball-reference.com/minors/p...id=marlet000tyl If they trade Viciedo to the Mariners, expect at least 1 pitcher back.

Chris Cotillo @ChrisCotillo · 10m Buzz this morning: #Mariners could be close to making a trade. Possibly Viciedo???

QUOTE (Dunt @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 07:01 AM) 2-3 teams looking at Danks with Yankees showing the most interest. Gotta be looking at their catching, right? Are they still interested even after acquiring McCarthy?

QUOTE (Dunt @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 06:58 AM) Toronto has been scouting Beckham for the last week per Levine I wonder which route Toronto is going to take. The expensive long term route with Hill or Prado, or somewhat cheaper and better defensively Beckham.

QUOTE (Tmar @ Jul 8, 2014 -> 09:55 PM) Anybody know if Masterson is on the DL? Yes, right hip inflammation I believe.

Freudenberg continues to impress. 6IP 3H 0ER 2BB 5K. I see a Kanny promotion in his future. 21 years old.

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Jul 8, 2014 -> 08:59 PM) Tank has become a walkin' machine. Definitely has gotten better at taking walks.

I think DeMichele and Coats have earned themselves a promotion to AA

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Jul 8, 2014 -> 08:30 PM) I played DIII baseball 8 years ago, I honestly think I could go up there and put up a similar line to what he's done the past 100 PA or so. For one thing, I'd f***ing chock up on the bat a little bit and look dead red fastball every single time. His approach is awful for a guy with that slow of a bat. Where'd you play? I stopped playing 2 years ago at Aurora University. Tore my labrum.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 8, 2014 -> 08:20 PM) Brett Austin had a rough start? I feel like he's had a nice line very time I looked. He was struggling a bit, striking out a lot. But has since cut down on the Ks

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 8, 2014 -> 08:01 PM) With Montas, Hawkins and Anderson all out....our minor league watch list is pretty limited. Horrid Johnson starts, Jared Mitchell recriminations, Trey M., May and Barnum in Winston-Salem, Tyler Danish and then Sanchez/Semien/Saladino/Davidson in Charlotte. Angel Sanchez is the 2nd most exciting pitcher at the moment, after Tyler. Beck sucks. Lol stop it. Beck doesn't suck. He still has a 3.5 ERA in AA. First you say you want Allen Craig now you say Angel Sanchez is the 2nd most exciting pitching prospect in the minors currently after Sox got him a week ago. Come on man.

Two spot on throws from Ross.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jul 8, 2014 -> 07:38 PM) Yeah, let's trade for a 30 year old outfielder with an OPS under 700, because one De Aza isn't enough. And he's right handed...

88 mph fastball right down the middle and Tyler is late on it. Later strikes out in the at bat. Wow, he is so unbelievably bad.

Who saw Parent completely grab his package twice? lol

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 8, 2014 -> 06:14 PM) Because they're showcasing Beckham for a trade, lol. Eaton's really been slumping his last ten games again. Such an inconsistent season from him. Has to be considered a bit of a disappointment so far, but not quite to the point where he's not projected to start again in 2015 (and honestly, who else do we even have to replace Viciedo and DeAza, let alone Adam?) I stopped reading after that....

http://www.milb.com/scoreboard/index.jsp?s...mp;ymd=20140708 Charlotte- Johnson Birmingham- Snodgress Winston Salem- Wendelken Great Falls- Freudenberg Kanny is off.

6. John Danks (#4 now with Samardzija and Hammel traded but interesting to see him this high) Ugh, Heyman said Danks had TJ..... 19. Alexei Ramirez 33. Adam Dunn 43. Gordon Beckham 48. Dayan Viciedo

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jul 8, 2014 -> 11:03 AM) Then you don't trade him. This has been said before. Exactly. Like others have said, Quintana is a key piece to the Sox "retooling". Sale and Quintana at the top of a rotation for a combined 14 years worth 108 million is a steal. Most teams would love to have their top 2 starters locked up long term with those terms.

QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ Jul 8, 2014 -> 10:53 AM) Quintana is the only trade legitimate trade chip that will bring back a significant amount of talent that can help in the near term. The Sox have consistently struggled to attract top tier talent in free agency, so if this team is going to improve it is going to need to be through the trade market. A deal with the Jays with Beckham for Sanchez, Norris and Pompey would be something to consider. Based on his age, contract status, and performance, he should have as much value as Smardzjia did in a deal. That would never happen. Jays have focused on Prado/Hill and Headley I believe.

This is a terrible idea.

Jon Morosi ‏@jonmorosi 7m Sources: White Sox are willing to move Gordon Beckham in the right deal now, but Jose Quintana remains unavailable. @FOXSports1

I thought Tim Anderson was going to be on there? I know he's on Jason Parks' top 50.
