This keeps up....fire sale is right around the corner.

We at least get to see Cintron at 3B tonight...Yikes. Sox should have traded Crede in the offseason because his value will never have been higher.

Seen this on MLBTraderumors.com Also glad to see the Dye/Abreu thing appears dead.... White Sox Won't Trade For Prospects White Sox GM Kenny Williams spoke to reporters yesterday, indicating that his phone lines are buzzing but he won't be trading his future free agents for prospects. Talent for talent is the name of the game, though the Jermaine Dye/Bobby Abreu talks have apparently died. The Sox are given a meager 1.7% chance to make the playoffs, according to Baseball Prospectus and PECOTA. And I rounded up. They're in fourth place, seven games back in the AL Central. They're in fifth for the wild card, 4.5 games out. If we try this exercise without PECOTA projections, the chances still seem bleak at 4.1%. Using a third method, Elo, the Sox have an 11.2% chance. I'd lean toward the latter; while the competition is fierce, 4.5 games doesn't seem insurmountable. Williams is an optimist, which fans have to appreciate. He even mentioned that he's up for the "rent-a-player scenario." That could mean acquiring even more impending free agents, like perhaps Adam Dunn. Like all other teams, Williams has almost two months to decide if his team is truly a contender. The worst outcome would be treading water for that time period.

Yep

Someone just said Ozzie Jr. just mentioned Gio Gonzalez coming up...possibly. Anyone listening to his show right now and can speak or atleast understand spanish...

Thinking on it... does Mac even have any options?

According to someone on WSI with a "Source" is saying that Aardsma and Macdougal have been sent to AAA and that Prinz and Bukvich are coming this way... TIFWIW....Plus with Craig Wilson playing at about A ball level means he would fit right in here then.

QUOTE(WHITESOXRANDY @ May 31, 2007 -> 12:53 PM) I'd give the flubs a little bullpen help for Matt Murton. I seen on MLBTradeRumors.com not too long ago. Where it was stated the Cubs may want to offer Murton for MacDougal.... TIFWIW of course. Cubs Offering Murton For Relief Help According to John Perrotto of Baseball Prospectus: "The Chicago Cubs desperately need bullpen help, and reportedly would part with outfielder Matt Murton in the right deal." For a team built to win now, that might make sense. Sure, you'd rather see the more expensive Jacque Jones go, but teams would of course rather acquire the younger, cheaper Murton. Murton, 25, only has 87 ABs this year. Cubs fans hoped to see him get a full-time look following a solid .297/.365/.444 season, but Lou Piniella hasn't complied. What kind of deals might work here? To the Nationals for Jon Rauch or Chad Cordero? To the White Sox for Mike MacDougal? That'd be a tasty crosstown deal. Is he enough to bring in Scott Linebrink, Eric Gagne, or Akinori Otsuka? I have a hard time pinning down Murton's market value because I'm a Cubs fan. He seems a touch more than a tweener, perhaps a guy who can become a healthy version of a late-20s Rondell White. The Cubs got White from the Expos at the 2000 trading deadline for Scott Downs. Downs was a 21 year-old southpaw coming off a 1.35 ERA and 11.36 K/9 in Double A the year before.

Geez Buehrle unravling now... the offense is back to being inept... yeah that's our Sox we all know and love....

Age 33 and 5'9

Did DJ just call him Mike Sweeney 2 times??

Sox catch a huge break there...

Offense is looking stellar so far... yikes

5 K's for Buehrle...

QUOTE(Jimbo @ Apr 26, 2007 -> 07:56 PM) BA would make a kick ass surfer. Maybe he should get a hold of Chad Hutchinson.....

BA sure as hell not helping himself up there...

Hell if someone were to tell b4 this series the Sox would get 2 of 3 I would have been happy as hell. I not too upset by it but with leading by 2 with 2 outs in the 9th they should have shut em down... too bad I jinx Aardsma... damn me!!

Massett does the job... f***in right!!!

Wow I just had say something about Aardsma didn't I?? Sheesh

Its amazing there were doubts Aardsma was even going to make this team out of ST and now he is one of the best we have...

PK needs a day or 2 off from playing

Looks like Star Wars set back in the "Wild Bill" settings...

Probably should have sent BA to AAA and kept Eduardo Perez on this team if they aren't going to use BA...

Crede comes through... shorten that swing and its amazing what he can do
