Quin

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jul 28, 2011 -> 12:56 AM) Regardless of whether or not we're actually interested in trading him right this second, this is frantastic news. We better not keep him.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Jul 28, 2011 -> 12:42 AM) Guys, because Carlos Gomez broke his collarbone. They're literally playing Mark Kotsay in the OF. Remember Mark Kotsay? I've seen him make a couple OF errors this year. On ground balls. That rolled to him.

QUOTE (hi8is @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 10:52 PM) That pretty much sums my face up after reading this. It's so appropriate everywhere today.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 08:24 PM) Then we better get some offense out of 3B if we're going to roll with that kind of inexperience in the OF. I can't imagine strong season ticket renewals unless there's at least one significant improvement made somewhere coming into 2012. Addition by subtraction.

QUOTE (Marty34 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 07:53 PM) There are a lot of moving parts involving the Sox right now. That said, I believe their best chance of winning a World Series this year is to have Sale in the rotation sometime this year. He's got the top of the rotation stuff needed to compete with the Red Sox and Yankees in a short series. Wonder if they are thinking outside the box with regards to him on 35th?

QUOTE (oldsox @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 07:39 PM) I just saw on the Sox web site that Zach Stewart is our #4 prospect. Viciedo, Reed, and...Thompson?

@cst_Cowley cst_Cowley Breaking News: The city of Toronto wanted me thrown in the deal, but Chicago said, "No way, not Mr. Handsome.'' Sorry Toronto. That's not douchey, not at all.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 07:40 PM) It said he confirmed it. Holy s***. Thats much better than the Toronto offer and frankly anything our offer would have been. Holy s***. That package would have been the best. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 07:41 PM) The Sox have Frasor/Crain in the pen. Cowley is pissed. Last night he said no way the rumor was true. He got scooped by a guy in his underwear in his mom's basement. And it was so...un-hollywood.

QUOTE (Real @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 07:26 PM) We pretty much have the best bullpen in the AL, easily the best bullpen in the central. Frasor Crain Santos Ohman Sale Thornton Does Frasor replace Bruney?? And if he does, who do the Sox add to the pen to keep 12 pitchers? Do we bring back Santiago? I can see Santiago replacing Bruney now that Crain has help. QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 07:30 PM) Wow. That's crazy if true. Mozeliak blew it.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 06:40 PM) I agree. Third this.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 06:26 PM) Today is giving me a headache. Jackie Chan has got your back. QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 06:20 PM)

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 06:21 PM) What are you referring to with these three PTBNL? And I'd be stunned if Upton doesn't go to the Nats. The PTBNL's are on the Jay's site.

QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 06:06 PM) So was the Toronto trade And that's why I'm taking this one seriously at the moment.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 06:03 PM) Not sure how much this guy knows who's posting these rumors. Hadn't posted anything in three months. It's just so out of left field though.

So, Santiago and Ohman would be the lefties in the pen next year? Assuming they want Sale in the rotation next year, Danks or Floyd would be gone. Throw in Stewart and Floyd would probably be gone. Rios gone means an OF is needed, unless it really is Milledge - De Aza - Viciedo. Or Gamel. If this deal is true, I see Quentin, Danks, and Floyd all disappearing in the next few days.

QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 05:52 PM) So Thornton,Rios and Escobar are involved in the deal. QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 05:52 PM) What? What fathom said.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 05:30 PM) I'm a big CQ fan but Dom Brown? wow...wow wow wow. That would be beyond pillaging. That would straight up Alex Anthopoulos-esque.

Kenny needs to pillage the Braves or Phillies systems for Q.

Confused.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 03:22 PM) Colby Rasmus > Daniel Hudson > Edwin Jackson > Jason Frasor > dirt > KW Please Steve, tell me how you really feel.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 04:11 PM) We have a positive run differential?!?!?! The f***!?!?!?!?!

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 04:03 PM) You can't count next year's cost savings there. Basically, cutting Rios would require this team pull back in Payroll to $90 million next year. I'm counting any years Rios is signed. Also, he is hence forth known as AlbatRios again.

f*** Rios.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 04:03 PM) Dude, there's no f***ing way. He's harder to deal than Alfonso Soriano. Obama will help us. It's the main sticking point of the debt ceiling.
