Grab them both, and then limit Grandal's playing time...a lot.  He's obviously still not 100%.  Or even close.

Not a terrible plan

Wow. They are really going to just stand pat... 

Has Hahn spoken yet?  Not looking good at the moment.  I totally get not buying controllable pieces right now, but there were plenty of rentals who could have helped us and Hahn has passed on all them as of this moment.  Right now I’d give Rick an F for trade deadline performance to go along with F off-season score.

So he blows a game against them and then they get him...smart

If Eloy vs Wall is to be believed, they didn’t have much money left.  Just a masterclass in roster mgmt

We've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas.

5:00 blockbuster trade with cubs incoming

Twins can now use Jax, Duffey, and Pagan in low leverage games while they get Duran, Lopez, and Fulmer in high leverage situations. 

Michael Fulmer to twins

And double F for in season score

Time for fire to reign… this is so predictable.

Hahn claimed earlier there would be money to be spent and they usually save some money for the deadline, but who the fuck knows at this point.  Taking on a moderately expensive, underperforming LOOGY seems even dumber if they were truly cash strapped.

Would be shocking.

I still think this happens…although not sure we’ll like the outcome if it does

I don’t believe a thing Hahn says

The chicago white sox are such an unbelieveable organization

10 minutes left to switch to sell mode.

I would be very surprised if Cubs don't move Happ and Contreras. Especially Contreras.

MLBN wondering WTF the Sox are doing.

Probably a good approach to life as a Sox fan

They're admitting that this season is fucked.....which is fine. 

I actually agree with standing pat here. Re-evaluate in the winter.
