Cris Carter...

Brandon Allen. I remember when the Sox traded him to AZ. The board was up in arms. Someone guaranteed he would be a future All Star. At least the board was half right. Tony Pena sucked.

That’s what I’m saying. If you’re going to trade any prospect worth something (which I wouldn’t) it should be for someone who can play the outfield. Kole Calhoun comes to mind. 

The sox have OF reinforcements coming back later this year in Engel, Robert, and Eloy (if they plan to put that Circus Act back out there). 

They have nothing to plug into the middle IF right now to try to win this season.

All Former Prospects indicate future results 

Man, Josh Nelson has some really bad takes on Twitter.

Why do the Sox want to mess with another iffy hamstring?

If this doesn’t work out there’s still some time left before the deadline.

Harold, you think this is misdirection? 

If they want Burger I would rather just move Burger up and have him play 2B.

It's not misdirection but they are concerned about Escobar's health.

You would have to ask someone with the proper medical background. However he had surgery, so I would assume if he has been cleared to play, that he's not any more vulnerable to a hamstring injury, than anyone else.

Like Adam Engel?

I would not advise giving up much for someone after hamstring surgery, especially if it's a distal reconstruction.  I don't know if it is, however. 

LOL

They could be. Look at Tommy Harris from the Bears.  It ended his career.

The kid who ruined the Joc Pederson trade.

Well also...Tommy Harris was a penetrating 3 technique. That pretty much ended his one advantage that he had coming out of college.

We’ve reached a new low in rumor mongering when we post Jason Kinander rumors.

Sorry I just saw it on the Twitter feed and posted it. I won’t post his stuff again.

I’m just teasing, post whatever as long as it’s not straight trolling.  At least it generates some conversation.

I know this is thread hacking but speaking of a player involved in a previous trade with the twins…

anyway I feel like Sox should be trying to get Cruz (or Donaldson). Twins have the expensive fire sale goods we’d be all over except division Yada yada. Sheeeeeeet I’d welcome back Colome.

For someone that has a White Sox podcast and a website, you’d think he would be more knowledgeable as to how baseball works.

Got to give to get and Adolfo likely just doesn't have enough time to figure it out with the Sox.  But watch....he'll hit15-20 2nd half bombs with the DBacks if that trade goes down.  

Now that I would be willing to bet $50 on as long as you mean the major league team and not an affiliate.

Especially when you are counting on immediate results. If they were hoping the guy could help them out next year, OK, but they need him to be good and play all the time now.
