July 31, 201015 yr BNightengale #mlb White Sox say there are done at deadline. No more deals at least not until players clear waivers
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 03:04 PM) Well, I'm pretty disappointed. Why? Theres still another month.
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (AWhiteSoxinNJ @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 03:05 PM) Why? Theres still another month. So? The only player we could pick up on waivers would be players who have massive contracts. We just picked up one of those guys yesterday.
July 31, 201015 yr F*** you Rizzo I hope you get stuck with Dunn next year when he accepts arb. For 16 mil. Although this is very disapointing, hopefuly we get something through waivers without givig up much. EJax does make us a better team though. But I'm disappointed.
July 31, 201015 yr The Edwin Jackson trade now makes very little sense. Bad, bad deadline for KW assuming we indeed did nothing today. Edited July 31, 201015 yr by whitesoxfan101
July 31, 201015 yr I still like Edwin Jackson as the #5 for this year and next more than I like Hudson. The Sox improved yesterday.

It's okay, take out your anger on Mike Rizzo with this... http://memegenerator.net/Incredibly-Frustrating-GM

I don't think the Nationals would have any problem with Dunn on a 1 year contract for 16 million. Rizzo had all the power here.

It's several million additional dollars on next years payroll for a back of the rotation starter. Jackson had better pitch well down the stretch and help us into the playoffs, or else it's a really bad trade. As of now, I'll be nice and just say it was a bad trade. With how bad Jackson has been pitching in the NL, we're not even for sure he'll be noteably better than Hudson would have been the rest of the way. Edited July 31, 201015 yr by whitesoxfan101
July 31, 201015 yr Ken_Rosenthal #Braves get W. Ramirez, "much bigger" deal close. #MLB Worth noting.

July 31, 201015 yr i just hope fans arent tools towards Jackson and cheer him whenever he starts. I think hell do pretty well with the Sox and the Sox rotation is what will take this team to the playoffs and beyond.

I've been saying for a while that Danks is out the door anyway. The fact we keep acquiring pitchers does nothing to change that opinion for me.
July 31, 201015 yr We needed pitching before a bat ever since Peavy went down. You can easily grab a Luke Scott, Adam LaRoche for giving up next to nothing.

Just an expensive, mediocre stopgap that takes up too much payroll resource next year. Edited July 31, 201015 yr by whitesoxfan101
July 31, 201015 yr At least we made up for the complete botching of the DH situation in the offseason.

July 31, 201015 yr Listening to 670 they say hold tight Sox are saying Dunn is not over. Renoylds is acting weird too we may still get dunn.
