QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 24, 2014 -> 10:20 AM) Sunday lineup Not really. Gillaspie getting a rest against a LHP and get Semien some at bats. You could argue Sierra over Leury in LF but anybody is better than De Aza right now so its moot.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 24, 2014 -> 10:40 AM) YES! YES! HELL YES! Hawk is awesome. Haters suck. I don't care what anyone says. I love his call when the Sox win on a walk off

http://espn.go.com/mlb/standings/_/type/wild-card I know its early, but still cool to be within a game of wild card.

Yankees were 21-0 leading after 8 innings before tonight

Lets' go boys!!!! back to 500

Paulino continues to suck lol.

Trey 1-1 with a 2B Lowry 2 IP 5 hits 1 ER 0 BB 0 K Baulio Ortiz got lit up Paulino has 3 BB in 2 innings.

Hawkins 1-2 with a K Coats with a 2 run HR De Michele 1-1. Average up to 250 now.

I'm watching SportsTalk Live and the question was who would you take for one game and then for the next 5 years. Kaplan and some other jack wagon said they would take Sale because "he is a proven super star" but take Samardzija over a career. Samardzija hasn't consistantly had a good season over his career. Maybe 2 years ago when he went 9-13 with a 3.81 era. Chris Sale has a lifetime ERA under 3 as of today. 4 years younger and on an insane team friendly contract. I wanted to reach through the TV and just smack some sense into these Cubs homers. Discuss

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ May 22, 2014 -> 09:14 AM) BA (Ben Badler) now has Sox as favorite to land Huascar Ynoa (RHP, DR), their #9 prospect for 7/2. Article behind paywall. Is he the only one Sox have an eye on? Who else have they been linked to and can we expect Hahn to sign any international guys? I know he would like to build through that also.

QUOTE (The Ultimate Champion @ May 22, 2014 -> 10:34 AM) Well let's see, one is a Major League player who keeps improving and the other is a minor league player who has just gotten worse. It's not even been 2 months. The last 10 days he's hitting 316 with 2 HRs and 5 RBIs but has 11 K's

QUOTE (The Ultimate Champion @ May 22, 2014 -> 10:32 AM) Alright so I admit I haven't been following these guys but there are always former top prospects out there who have either fallen on hard times (Noesi) or haven't taken steps forward as anticipated (Gillaspie) which can be acquired cheaply or even for free. One player that comes to mind as a "cheaper" type potentially might be Mike Montgomery?? I'm thinking here, this guy looked awesome with the Royals but in the Shields deal his inclusion was almost more of an afterthought and Odorizzi was considered the better get even though Montgomery from what I'd seen of each looked a whole hell of a lot more talented than Odorizzi ever was. So what happened to this guy, did he lose his stuff or something? Checking B-R he's been at the Triple A level for parts of 4 straight seasons, 2011-now. These are the kinds of players we should look into acquiring. Also I would be very interested in offering Rienzo to the Angels for Santiago back. Not sure they'd seriously consider that but if they did I'd be all like f*** yeah and stuff because I still like Hector & think he just probably needs real coaching not that psuedo coaching s*** that goes on on teams like the Angels where everybody is making $40M a piece and no one has any balls. So else is out there? Some buy low type of arms, and an OF too, that's really what we need. Rienzo for Santiago? No thanks. Santiago just got sent to AAA. Montgomery is a good piece but I don't know what it would take to get him.

This is really hard. I love Connor, but I think Davidson could be an absolute stud. The keep both of them scenario is interesting but i don't know if I could trust a Viciedo Eaton Garcia OF unless Viciedo and Garcia get better out there. I guess its a good problem to have, but in the end, i would love to keep both.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ May 21, 2014 -> 01:33 PM) I don't know how you could possibly get fair value for an elite defensive shortstop with an 839 OPS and a reasonable contract through 2016. Exactly, that's why I think we hang on to them because no team wants to give up a ton.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 21, 2014 -> 01:32 PM) This is Noesi's slot for starting, though Scott Merkin was clear to say that doesn't mean he is the one losing his spot in the starting rotation or on the MLB roster. Has to be Carroll's that will get sent down.

Let's sweep these guys

I am a happy human

I don't want to trade Alexei, but right now, he is the best SS in the AL and it would be hard not to at least listen to offers. I think we would get a ton for him but who would be interested?

Rienzo is 4-0 with a 4.00 ERA. That's pretty good out of your number 5 starter. He is definitely earning himself a spot for the rest of the season and into next season maybe. I'd like to see when healthy Sale Quintana ??? Danks Rienzo
