July 31, 201213 yr QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 31, 2012 -> 01:42 PM) Complicated an hour and a half before the deadline usually ends with no deal. Can't you continue working on your deal after the 3 pm deadline? I thought I heard that before?

The "stealth" thing is OK, but I think its good to have the Sox out there in on everyone, even though we all know a lot of it will be BS, and have as many people possible discussing White Sox baseball.
July 31, 201213 yr In a few minutes, MLB.com will be airing a Trade Dealine show. I'm assuming it's going to be simulcasted on MLB Network as well, but I don't have MLB Network. http://mlb.mlb.com/video/play.jsp?topic_id...ent_id=23466717
July 31, 201213 yr Nice to dream but can you imagine a playoff rotation of Felix, Sale, Peavy, Liriano.

July 31, 201213 yr I'm still not buying it. The bottom line is that they have 3 starters who have durability concerns. Unless Williams is using Floyd as part of a deal to improve the starting rotation, I don't think there's a deal to be made in the next hour, and I willl be shocked if he's part of a deal for an upgrade on offense.
July 31, 201213 yr QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 31, 2012 -> 02:08 PM) Even if nothing happens, I just want to know what we were trying to do. lol My guess is that they may be floating his name just to keep their name in conversations in case something unexpected comes up. I'm sure Kenny Williams has looked into every impact player he can that makes sense to the team, he probably doesn't give up easy.
