July 30, 201312 yr QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 01:41 PM) When Santiago's K/9 ratio puts him in the Top 10 of all MLB for starters? If the White Sox had five cloned Hector Santiagos in their rotation, putting up identical numbers, they wouldn't be in last place. One isolated stat does not make him a good pitcher.
July 30, 201312 yr QUOTE (ptatc @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 02:53 PM) One isolated stat does not make him a good pitcher. But that one does have a shot at getting him pretty close. You show me a guy with good K/9, I'll ask how many people he walks. He strikes out a lot of people and keeps the walks down and it's almost guaranteed he's a good starter.
July 30, 201312 yr Quote: John Perrotto #Pirates and #WhiteSox have at least discussed the parameters of a trade in which Jake Peavy and Alexei Ramirez would come to Pittsburgh in exchange for Jameson Taillon, Alex Dickerson and at least one other prospect. #MLB #BUCN 29 minutes ago Link Has this been posted?
July 30, 201312 yr QUOTE (southside hitman @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 01:49 PM) Still his ERA over three years in SD was under 4. Not bad. I'm not saying Clayton Richard is a frontline starter, that's why you trade him for a guy like Peavy. I guess he was better than I give him credit for, but he would have struggled in the AL in a park like the Cell.

That deal needs to get done. Seems like Pittsburgh is the last team that wants Rios and maybe they have realized it.

July 30, 201312 yr QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 01:47 PM) Apparently only money is holding up a deal for Peavy to ARZ, according to MLBTR Eaton, Owings Holmberg Davidson in that order

July 30, 201312 yr QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 08:03 PM) Holy s***, Taillon? That's insane. Now everyone's expectations for a return on Rios are going to be way too unrealistic.

July 30, 201312 yr QUOTE (beautox @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 02:04 PM) Eaton, Owings Holmberg Davidson in that order Holmberg would be a disappointing centerpiece.
July 30, 201312 yr QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 02:22 PM) Holmberg would be a disappointing centerpiece. He's destined for Cooperstown if he's mentioned with Edwin Jackson.
