Sox land Liriano

Why do people think a starting pitcher will get traded from the Sox now? We all know Sale will be skipped a lot the rest of the way, and you have a lot of question marks in Floyd/Humber/Q.

Who said that? I think they go 6-man from here out to rest Sale and Peavy and Quintana.

Hey we will not face Liriano in Minn :lolhitting...............Danks must be done for 2012 IMO.

Edited by Soxfest

If there's one thing Cooper excels at, it's getting his pitchers to improve their control. This is just a great trade.

I have a feeling Eduardo is going to hurt us in the future.

 

Liriano can possibly pitch against his old team this weekend.

 

 

I agree with the Escobar statement. I heard the news on the post game show, and even before it started Frank was saying how much he was liked in the clubhouse, high energy high character guy. Sucks to lose a chemistry guy like that but man this could be just what this team needs. Crazy interdivision trade that can have great story lines for years to come. Thanks Escy.

 

What's Franciscos contract like?

 

Who do we call up to fill our bench?

 

Great KW move

funny thing is that the sox basically killed his trade value by lighting him up the other day lol

That was KW's plan haha

Since it's way too difficult to watch AL Central games in central Iowa....what is Liriano throwing this year?

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 28, 2012 -> 10:13 PM)
Were you around then, Q? Tizzle's Liriano rants were the stuff of legend.

 

No, but it's infamous.

I agree Peavy too since the surgery he hasn't pitched a lot of innings.

Who's playing SS for Charlotte? Seems like we need to call up a new backup... or another trade

Drew Garcia, who is a non-prospect. Kinda doubt he comes up.

 

I think this likely means Danksy will be shut down.

As well he should be.

After seeing him pitch against the Sox I'm not sure Liriano is the answer, but after Greinke he was my second choice and the price was right.

Danks hinted today that surgery was a possibility.

 

I have to imagine that the Sox will go with the 6 man staff and a 6 man bullpen.

 

Septimo will most likely get sent down.

I don't know. There are no position players currently on the 40 that can be brought up, but this was a 2-for-1 deal so there is now a spot open on the 40.

Yup.

 

Whether or not we move a SP, and whether or not Danks comes back, this provides us a lot of versatility with the rotation, especially with a ton of question marks. Liriano is no sure thing either, but you obviously have to like Coop's track record with guys like this.

Props to KW on these trades. I'll take a 6 man rotation with the extra day of rest for Chris. Verrry nice. Do we have Liriano for next year, too?

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jul 28, 2012 -> 10:15 PM)

Oh ok. Anyway, anybody who doesn't like this deal means you somehow, someway value the white sox' farm system. That just isn't acceptable.

 

 

 

There is only one thing to get from this. Kenny Williams reads my posts.

You almost have too. Makes zero sense to bring up Morel like somebody said earlier...you need a backup SS. Rather not throw Gordo over there...

Had a brain lapse.

 

So now it goes Sale-Peavy-Quintana-Floyd-Liriano-Humber the rest of the way?

 

I like.

KW telling everyone on this board to STFU. 3 amazing trades, Big Donkey and Peavy coming into form, Rios bouncing back. The guy may have known what he was doing.

 

Where's greg?

Lefties are not too scared of Thornton nowadays, so that's potentially an issue.

I bet Saladino will be joining the Sox tomorrow
