QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 22, 2012 -> 09:17 PM) I wonder if Ventura's going to go with Reed or let Thornton face Swisher and Cano? Funny thing is that I trust Veal more than anyone in the pen to get Cano out. Veal is da dude out there.

Someone kidnap Thornton out of the stadium please...

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Aug 20, 2012 -> 11:13 PM) I don't know if it is meaningul, but... in the past week or two, I've noticed Gordon doing something he was NEVER doing since his rookie year - putting above average velocity fastballs into good play. Also, he is gapping to R and RC better now. Might be nothing, but, might be an indicator he is putting it back together. We'll see. Oppo HR tonight was 94mph and up. Helluva job turning that around...good sign.

QUOTE (jasonxctf @ Aug 20, 2012 -> 12:47 PM) good to know. think im going to order mlb.tv tonight. is your youtube app working on the ps3?? spent at least 2 hours messing with it yesterday with no success. PS3 mlb.tv is solid. YouTube app is awful.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 7, 2012 -> 08:26 PM) Ugh, you get the feeling KC's going to at least tie it here after the Sox failed so miserably last inning. 2-1 Royals soon

QUOTE (kapzk @ Aug 7, 2012 -> 08:22 PM) wtf is Robin thinking And this is the inning they score and take the lead.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Aug 1, 2012 -> 02:31 PM) I created another thread starting the topic already but what is everyone's opinion of Mike Fontenot. He was DFA'd by Philadelphia today. While he is not great, he has played SS in the past and is better than Olmedo. Yes if there are no other options.

This has a "Sunday" lineup kinda game feel to it. Sox suck against LHP.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 31, 2012 -> 01:17 PM) If he trades Floyd, he needs another starter. That's the plan.

QUOTE (GoGoSox2k2 @ Jul 31, 2012 -> 01:17 PM) oh here is my guy bucket.. any particulars on who is interested man Heard it is more than two teams. "Complicated".

KW definitely has Gavin on the block right now.

I think Liriano will be a revelation in a Sox uniform and pitch very well this season and beyond.

This should not even be a thread. Kill it.

He was outside the 3 foot lane and he interfered - HE'S OUT even if he isn't hit by the ball. HE SHOULD BE OUT.

QUOTE (kev211 @ Jul 30, 2012 -> 10:27 PM) Can we fix the title until we get better confirmation. I don't really trust a guy with 193 tweets. Thank you.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jul 30, 2012 -> 10:24 PM) Fantasy Expert ‏@MrFantasyExpert SOURCE: The Chicago White Sox have acquired Philadelphia Phillies OF Hunter Pence (no cash) in exchange for Jordan Danks and Nate Jones. IS THIS REAL LIFE!?!?!!? Funny...?

Sox battle like MF'rs at the plate these days.

QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 29, 2012 -> 02:27 PM) Sounds like it may be to us..... It does sound like that

QUOTE (gosox41 @ Jul 28, 2012 -> 10:36 PM) Let's hope Liriano is motivated by playing for a contending team. Does anyone know why he's been so bad this year? Has it been lack of motivation? Injury? Is he tipping his pitches? Just one of those years? How has his velocity been? Bob He's been much better lately (aside from the Sox game). Still a K machine.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 28, 2012 -> 10:29 PM) I'm so excited...I think under Cooper, Liriano has a chance to be the best SP that was acquired at the break by far. Coop has always loved Liriano and he was very likely consulted about this move.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 28, 2012 -> 10:25 PM) That is so full of win, it isn't even funny. Kenny got his impact arm tonight.

Great move by Kenny. Traded spare parts for a pitcher that can be absolutely dominant when motivated. The price for other starters is astronomical right now.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 28, 2012 -> 09:21 AM) Still think it would take Viciedo to get Johnson. Viciedo? OF corners is the one place they're set. Johnson will be pitching for Texas within days anyway.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 28, 2012 -> 06:08 AM) JR won't want to take on Bell's horrible contract. We've never done this, that I can remember. Sanchez isn't needed, they'll move Bonifacio to 2B supposedly. Santiago and Reed still aren't going to be enough of a return for a pitcher like Johnson, even if you consider the roughly $20 million they're saving on Heath Bell. Maybe if at least half that money was coming from the Marlins for Bell...but then we'd have to kick in much better players. So replace Santiago with Quintana. Bell has had a nightmare season but just a year ago he was damn good. Sox could have a lot of money coming off the books. And Johnson comes with his own risks as well. Obviously Sanchez is for future considerations.

I'd consider: Reed, Santiago, Sanchez to MIA for Johnson, Bell
