Who are we kidding, Rios probably tore his ACL going into the dugout after the previous inning.

What did Stone say?

 

Stone said something along the lines of "Rios stopped running"

That reminds me, we are now on Hugwatch 2013.

Andrelton Simmons is pretty great.

Yep, kind of a strange time for Ventura to finally discipline someone.

 

Robin just needs to go away.

Puig got pulled, maybe we made caulfield's year and traded for him? Konerko and Rios for Puig sounds good to me.

Where do I sign for that?

Word. I sincerely hope he's been moved. Not a good look to be showing distaste for a dude you are trying to acquire maximum value for.

Lots of stuff on twitter about Rios hugging his teammates. Nothing that looks legit though, and they definitely didn't show that on the Sox broadcast.

I didn't see that on the Braves broadcast either but i haven't been watching every second.

Yea. The hugs haven't been reported by anyone noteworthy. Nothing from the local media either.

Alex Rios might have been benched for not running hard to first base in the 5th. Will hear from Ventura on post-game show to confirm.

It was probably just Robin being a pile of crap manager.

Rios deserved it.

 

Of course he deserved it weeks ago.

Its a little late for Robin to try and tough up at this point.

Who knows if related, but Alen Hanson of the Pirates was lifted in his minor league game.

Alen Hanson was pulled late from his game as well. Probably just coincidence though.

second game of DH, but no one else was pulled from the lineup.

If Alex Rios is headed somewhere, doesn't sound like Pittsburgh is the spot. Source said "I don't see it happening." #WhiteSox #Pirates

Greg, let's trade Rios for Buehrle

At least Ramirez has been hot lately.

That was an incredible swing by him

Found some interesting news....supposedly Mike Olt's medicals are the reason the Garza trade has disintegrated. So anyone who wanted him from Texas remove him from their lists. I realize it was the gamethread but thought you guys might find this interesting.

 

Any idea what the specifics are?
