Not bad at all. Duke wasn't part of the long term future anyway, and the Sox were able to get his contract off the books too. I don't know much about Tilson, but I'd be happy if he was a Denard Span or Ben Revere type with good defense.

The Sox have given up. Plain and simple. It might be a blessing in disguise though because the Sox aren't giving us any false hope like they did last year.

I want Sale to win it the most, but obviously I'm rooting for Q if Sale doesn't get it.

Sale battled his ass off from what I heard and he'll still get a loss. What a load of crap. This offense is a joke.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Jul 27, 2016 -> 05:51 PM) I was just saying your post wasn't very insightful as this is a thread about Shields "possibly" being traded. Was just kind of funny is all. I was trying to say that he made it sound like it wouldn't be surprising if he was dealt, not that the possibility is there...as we all know that already.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Jul 27, 2016 -> 05:36 PM) Look back at the last couple pages. We all know "the Sox could possibly move Shields." Lol this is the thread for it. Um, ok?

whitesoxdave makes it sound like the Sox could possibly move Shields. I'd be ok with that.

QUOTE (Tony @ Jul 25, 2016 -> 11:56 PM) Jason Heyward.....Bad. He might end up being one of the worst free agent signings ever if he doesn't pull himself out of this season long slump. I'm now REALLY glad the Sox passed up on him.

Wow, I'm so sorry to hear that. I'm sending my thoughts their way and I hope everything turns out for the best. Keep us posted!

f*** you Chris Sale. This is YOUR fault.

No plan against Arrieta won't work.

QUOTE (Tony @ Jul 24, 2016 -> 10:03 PM) Kaplan is approaching it wrong because he's a giant boob, but the idea isn't wrong. We are root for the jersey, not really the player. Chapman seems like a giant piece of garbage, but damn can he throw hard. We are all sports fans. We all witnessed 2005 (aside from Mike who I think was like 2 when it happened. ). When "your guys" are winning playoff series, you're not thinking "Well I'm really happy about this but I wish Chapman wasn't on my team right now...." Cubs fans may be having a hard time with it right now. Once he puts on that jersey and records that first save, no one will be thinking about the DV charges from the off-season. Does that make it right? No. But Theo and Jed know they'll take a PR hit now. If they win the whole thing and Chapman records the save, you think there is a writer in this town that is going to minimize the Cubs 1st WS because of Chapman's past? Please. I was 6, thank you very much.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 24, 2016 -> 08:49 PM) Gotta love Kaplan having no problem with his Cubs getting Chapman, yet he acted like the Sox actions towards LaRoche was worse thing ever. Bernstein is definitely not happy about Cubs getting Chapman. Kaplan is a glorified Cubs homer that happens to have a TV gig. I don't know why anyone would take anything of value out of his ramblings.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 24, 2016 -> 06:34 PM) I don't think he will. Nor should he. Has a chance in a weaker AL to put the sox up on top with adding Sale/Q and Robertson. I think they still get Moncada+ for Quintan and Robertson. Edit: fixed sorry busy working typo I have no idea what you're trying to say lol.

QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Jul 24, 2016 -> 11:48 AM) Hahn says Sale trade talks not impacted by incident. Hopes to win championships with him. https://twitter.com/CSNHayes/status/757255971957796865 Yeah...right.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 24, 2016 -> 12:32 AM) Don't let the door hit you in the vagina on your way out. If you decide to go that route *facepalm*

I wonder when he's going to pitch again. Monday against Arrieta maybe?

Sale barks at Robin whenever he pulls him from the game. He's a lot of things, but mentally weak isn't one of them.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 09:03 PM) One of the most embarrassing things about the franchise is that their star player has anger issues. Which is also partially the FO's fault. Had they set the ground rules years ago that this crap isn't allowed, then these conflicts would be avoided. Sale acted in a very immature manner, no doubt, but come on. This should've never happened if there were established rules in place.

QUOTE (Dunt @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 08:56 PM) It's actually incredibly embarrassing for the team and fanbase. The team was already an embarrassment, just because of their performance on the field. This made it worse, but even a common baseball fan knows that the Sox are run by a bunch of buffoons.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 08:44 PM) You think cutting up a bunch of jerseys like a four year old kid was the appropriate reaction to the situation? No, but it is pretty damn funny.

I think I like Sale even more than I did before this incident.

This is the funniest baseball story of the year, bar none.

The White Sox organization from top to bottom is a complete joke.
