July 24, 20169 yr What a mess. At least this happened right before the trade deadline. That's the only silver lining that I can find.
July 24, 20169 yr Peggy Kusinski reporting Sale won't be disciplined. Is mad about trade speculation. Sorry can't link on Twitter right now

July 24, 20169 yr If Sale is upset with the '76 uniforms being a PR and marketing ploy, how is that any different than wearing the '83 uniforms?

July 24, 20169 yr QUOTE (Black_Jack29 @ Jul 24, 2016 -> 10:29 AM) Mental midget. Trade him. I agree to the point of sometime in the next 5 months, not 8 days necessarily.
July 24, 20169 yr QUOTE (Black_Jack29 @ Jul 24, 2016 -> 10:29 AM) Mental midget. Trade him. If that's how he reacted to the guy who is thinking about trading him, imagine how he would react to the pisters on this board who WANT to trade him.

I was originally thinking that the day to trade him would've been a year from now. So if Hahn wants to wait until the winter meetings, that's fine with me.

July 24, 20169 yr Ventura: Chris Sale not expected at park today. #WhiteSox https://twitter.com/CSNHayes/status/757238845754703872
July 24, 20169 yr Ventura on Sale: "It's nothing that can't be smoothed over. This isn't the first one (controversy)." Sale not starting Monday vs. Cubs https://twitter.com/scotgregor/status/757239327604744192
July 24, 20169 yr QUOTE (Middle Buffalo @ Jul 24, 2016 -> 10:29 AM) If Sale is upset with the '76 uniforms being a PR and marketing ploy, how is that any different than wearing the '83 uniforms? Because the 76 unis are made with different material or fit different apparently. Said they are uncomfortable. The 83 jerseys must not be.
July 24, 20169 yr Ventura says starting pitchers do get to choose the jersey... except on a promotional day. #WhiteSoxTalk https://twitter.com/SieraSantos/status/757241315511926784
July 24, 20169 yr This kind of behavior from the best and most valuable member of your team is totally unacceptable. It's like a little kid throwing a tantrum every time he doesn't get his way. What kind of example is that to the younger guys on this team. you lead by example. This is exactly why the White Sox are a losing team and organization. There is no leadership whatsoever. Trade him for as much as you can get. You will never win with this type of selfish player. It's time to sell and start building over. Get rid of Hahn and Ventura and the entire coaching staff.
July 24, 20169 yr I get it if you can't, Rabbit, but I am dying to hear more about your "prepare to be surprised at the deadline" tweet.

Why would you wear jerseys that your know your star pitcher and other players don't enjoy wearing just for a promotion? This organization needs a lot of help

July 24, 20169 yr Shields says that Sale is more of a leader than he expected. No idea what that means.
July 24, 20169 yr QUOTE (raBBit @ Jul 24, 2016 -> 11:02 AM) Weirdest thing yesterday was right when this started I get the message, "It's nothing. Sale has the flu." Then immediately after I tweeted it, Doug Padilla, John Greenburg (spelling? name?) and Scott Gregor all tweeted the same. Obviously this wasn't the case but how do four different people get the same wrong story in a matter of 20 minutes. It was very fishy to me. Really seems to me like the Sox tried to protect Sale, again, as all of the locals got the same cover story early. Again, my guess is someone else was in the clubhouse that helped the real story get out. Was that another reporter? Was that a disgruntled teammate? Remember there was already some dissension over the LaRoche incident. To me that is the most interesting part of this.

July 24, 20169 yr Same scout said Sale trade value unaffected. 'Teams don't (care) about this incident.They will say they do to get cheaper but it won't work' https://twitter.com/CST_soxvan/status/757249832763269121
July 24, 20169 yr Toni Ginnetti @toniginnetti 49m49 minutes ago Ventura "anticipates" sale will be available in cubs series but not tomorrow
