July 31, 201510 yr QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 03:05 PM) #Mets gave up Fulmer and Cessa for Cespedes #Tigers https://twitter.com/Joelsherman1/status/627207893151023104 Funny thing is mets were trying to keep fulmer and trade wheeler instead. Whatever sick of losing out on guys, whether we had the ammo or not it's just disappointing.

It's not just about having the amo or making a move to make a move. The Sox knew how slim their playoff chances were this year and they weren't willing to give up any assets for a rental. It makes complete sense.
July 31, 201510 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 02:06 PM) Michael Fulmer to the Tigers...he's a solid acquisition What would be really hilarious is if Dombrowski said..."We now feel 100% more confident than a week ago about our ability to beat the White Sox in 2016." To top it off, we're going to go out and spend a billion dollars on Greinke or Cueto.

Doing nothing made no sense to me.

If they determined we had slim chances they should have used their best barging chip in Shark
July 31, 201510 yr QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 03:09 PM) Then trade Samardzija. Doing nothing made no sense to me. It is a little puzzling. I wonder if the Sox just had their minds made up not to trade him, or if the packages offered weren't good enough.
July 31, 201510 yr Mets have a better offer. Glad we didn't give up something of that value to the Tigers

At least Samardzija, c'mon.
July 31, 201510 yr Dan Hayes @CSNHayes 1m1 minute ago #WhiteSox have given the all clear. No moves before deadline.

At least Samardzija, c'mon. I was just referring to the not getting Cespedes (or Upton, or any rental) part. I agree not trading Samardzija is a little puzzling.
