Jose Abreu

While I'm not opposed to acquiring a catcher for the future, getting one for the immediate future would be silly given that we have a decent catcher compared to the rest of the league.

Wish I could play it. My PSN account was suspended without explanation last week. All I do online is play Battlefield and MLB The Show. I don't mod or anything.

QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Jul 20, 2015 -> 05:46 PM) With the Braves moving to a new stadium in '17 I don't see them moving Simmons. I'd like to get Arenado from COL Ha, I wish... best defensive 3rd baseman in baseball and this year he's been top 3 on offense. That would be something.

QUOTE (RaySox @ Jul 20, 2015 -> 05:31 PM) White Sox listening to offers I like the idea of Jon Lester for Yoenis Cespedes type of trades... Any ideas on major league players we could trade for with this idea in mind? Yasiel Puig

QUOTE (Buehrlesque @ Jul 20, 2015 -> 03:42 PM) I am against trading Sale, as most packages seem too weak to me. That one, however, is just about the only Sale trade I would do — enthusiastically. For me, it's the above package and a deal with the Cubs including Bryant, Schwarber, and Soler at a minimum.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 20, 2015 -> 02:03 PM) One problem I'm now noticing...who would play 1b? Abreu looks like he's about to fall apart right now and that's after 5 days off. I don't exactly care about losing more games, but seriously who plays 1b for the next few games/if Abreu goes on the DL and LaRoche is shipped out? Gillaspie.. oh wait

QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ Jul 20, 2015 -> 11:01 AM) If the Sox can get Shark to agree to an extension, I can see them parting ways with Q at the deadline. They would be able to fill in gaps receiving more in a Q trade and still have an above average rotation going into next season. It also increases the number of potential buyers that would be interested though trading Q may make more sense to do in December. I don't know, I'd much rather have Q long term than Shark.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jul 19, 2015 -> 04:12 PM) This is a horrible idea. In what world has Shuck shown enough to get regular playing time? In what world has he shown enough to not get regular playing time? With his performance in limited time, he at least deserves a chance.

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jul 19, 2015 -> 04:11 PM) A #1 starter Ok, so you're contradicting yourself. Jose Quintana is, by your definition, an elite pitcher.

QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Jul 19, 2015 -> 04:06 PM) I'd say this is the defining game for convincing anyone in the front office who believed otherwise that this season is done. You can't sell hope anymore, especially your ace pitcher losing against the division rivals and the offense doing its own updated version of Corpseball. It actually feels like the kind of day to expect a trade or two. Sunday home game, conclusion of a terrible series, why not start now with unloading what we can? I wish we made a move today. I don't think we will until the 29-31 range, though.

QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Jul 19, 2015 -> 10:10 AM) He can put an AB together way better than Laroche- at least he can battle a pitcher. I'd start giving him more of Laroche's ABs I hope we somehow rid of LaRoche at the deadline. Then Shuck could play RF regularly with Avi DHing

Hosmer, Infante, and Escobar killed us defensively.

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jul 19, 2015 -> 03:56 PM) How many would you say were in the OF? Today, probably no more than 3, but usually there are more.

I counted 14-15 great KC defensive plays today

And there's his first HR

Keep in mind our 40 man is currently at 38. Move coming

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jul 19, 2015 -> 03:51 PM) of the Season Sale?

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 19, 2015 -> 02:57 PM) This team might end up with no one hitting 20 homers Eaton!

Well now I'm pissed off. Turned the game off. When I check again in half an hour and I see Sale get the loss or us down 2-0 in the 8th/9th, I'll probably just laugh

QUOTE (harkness @ Jul 19, 2015 -> 02:56 PM) Jose either has his head stuck up his A** or he is hurt. If it's the latter this guy has some problems staying healthy big time. It's the latter

If anyone other than Sale or Quintana were pitching, Melky would've blasted a HR by now
