interesting

Rangers get an exemption because of the heat.

 

I was at a game where it was 100 degrees at 10pm down there. The Heat is brutal. And yes, heat gets to be capitalized when we are talking about Dallas in basically August.

f*** Ron Washington and his cocaine.

 

Also, it's Bacon Slayer time.

Twins sweep the Indians.

 

Indians gotta think long & hard these next couple days.

They should trade Choo to the NL.

Heard Choo might go to the Pirates.

Agreed, I was there for a Rockies/Rangers game on a Sunday night in late June, it was brutal even at 9 p.m. I was told they NEVER play day games.

Heard Choo might go to the Pirates.

 

Rangers interested as well, but I can't see the Indians dealing him.

Yes, but is it the Yankees-Red Sox tonight on ESPN? Texas usually plays evening games at home because of the extreme heat. I do think this game rates as an ESPN Sunday Night pick because the Red Sox are in last place and we have a battle of division leaders to showcase.

 

It sucks for those outside White Sox and Rangers home territories. We'll be S.O.L. on watching the game.

Sox aren't trading Floyd unless its a major haul. Like a Floyd, Beckham and more for a Josh Johnson (and I have no idea why Florida would do that). Floyd is one of the Sox better starters and despite people's constant b****ing, his careerr numbers are pretty damn solid (especially when you factor in the AL and the hittersp ark he spends time in). He's also been pretty good this year. Albeit, I don't like this match-up in the heat against the Rangers.

 

Oh and his option is very very affordable for next year. If you trade him, you deal him this off-season for a cost controlled younger pitcher (or in a package for one).

 

 

Hey, Im not sayin', but....

 

@jonheymancbs gavin floyd's name has come up in other #chisox talks. at the moment, they are the most interesting team.

 

im just sayin'

I don't buy into what Heyman is talking about either. I don't think its true. Unless of course they are going for another cost-controlled arm that is an upgrade (e.g., Floyd plus some solid prospects). In which case, it makes sense.

 

They aren't looking to dump Floyd for prospects.

WTF!?!?? Is this really blacked out on mlb.tv?

Beckham pops up. I've heard that one before.

ugh this is so frustrating....game is blacked out on mlbtv - stupid contract that says anything starting after 5 pm ET on sunday is blacked out. the language should just be that the goddamn sunday night ESPN game is the one that gets blacked out.

 

why the f*** is this game on so late in the first place?

 

Red Sox Yankees is

 

ESPN has exclusive rights. Games started after 6 p.m. E.T. cannot be shown out of market.
