Levine did tweet that Rangers and Pirates have been scouting Rios for 3 weeks. At least Kenny is looking at players we can't complain about.
July 25, 201312 yr Sunday morning I flew back from Omaha and sat next to two obvious scouts flying to Detroit. It was a red eye, so I assume they were scouting the Royals AAA team? They were both talking about how they don't understand how the team is a buyer. I am assuming the team is the Royals? Also, they spent a good 15 minutes making fun of Dave Cameron and fangraphs for their "bulls*** scouting reports"

July 25, 201312 yr Bruce Levine @ESPNBruceLevine 1m Pirates and Rangers have been watching Rios for more than three weeks. https://twitter.com/ESPNBruceLevine How long until it crosses the line from 'scouting' to 'stalking'?
July 25, 201312 yr Mlbtraderumors just noted that Rios and Schierholtz are atop the Pirates wishlist Edited July 25, 201312 yr by SoxPride18
July 25, 201312 yr People on Twitter are saying Kenny Williams has been spotted in Altoona, PA. Too bad the Altoona Curve are in the middle of a 10-day road trip.

July 25, 201312 yr QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 25, 2013 -> 11:54 AM) I am so discouraged with everything right now. Why? I think the Sox are going to wind up with a few solid deals going down. They have the best hitter (outfielder), shortstop, starting pitcher, and reliever on the market. They'll get stuff done. No sens in forcing a deal 6 days prior to the deadline when desperate teams could up the ante.

There's Hochever, Gergerson, Thatcher.

July 25, 201312 yr Well Crain is off the market now. Would Lindstrom be the best available reliever on the market now? There's Hochever, Gergerson, Thatcher. Some team that is desperate for relief pitching could still trade for Crain. The offer would be a lot lower than if he had made 2-3, or even 1 appearance after coming off the DL, but it's not out of the question that somebody could still take a chance on him. Unless the Sox have plans to re-sign him, there's no reason not to take a lowball offer if somebody makes one.

July 25, 201312 yr Now this is strange: Peter Gammons @pgammo 1h Keep hearing White Sox need pitching for Peavy, as 5 of their 6 best prospects are position players. They may be, but they are nowhere near ML ready.
