QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Aug 5, 2014 -> 10:04 AM) I heard a station say Marquess Wilson was out for the year. Is that true? At this point, its a possibility since he apparently had surgery this morning.

Allen Craig and Joe Kelly go to Boston

QUOTE (ChiSoxJon @ Jul 28, 2014 -> 02:31 PM) Every contending team has a legitimate catcher, which means the Sox need a nice young one, how do we get his, FA is poor and drafting one takes too long, our top Catching prospects are probably Phegley, Smith, and Austin but I don't see a close legitimate option, how do we acquire one? Trades I assume, I'd move Danks to NYY for O'Brien/Sanchez and a s*** pitcher if possible, hell I may be outta my mind or maybe just desperate but I'd even look to swap Tim Anderson for Kevin Plawecki of NYM, Flowers shows flashes but he's not the future It's pretty tough to get a young catcher that A. Will be pretty decent and stick at catcher as long as the team would like B. Won't cost you a couple top prospects since they are very rare. I know I didn't offer a real solution, but I'm pretty confident in saying Hahn is exploring every possible option to get a serious C prospect in the mix.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Jul 28, 2014 -> 09:45 AM) 106 wRC+ from the left side with scratch defense in CF? I'm thrilled, especially because I think he still has upside. It's really going to be only his first full year in the league, and he's already showed us a ton, the guy is a leader as well which is awesome to have a young team with good influences like Eaton and Avi.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 23, 2014 -> 02:42 PM) Anyone know which box office section sells tickets in game? Probably gonna head up there now and watch the last three innings. They aren't online unfortunately. I never bought tix in game but isn't the deadline to buy tix for a game the 4th inning, or did you mean a future game?

Maybe,just maybe, today might be the day they just say "f*** it, just get rid of him"

QUOTE (scs787 @ Jul 23, 2014 -> 01:50 PM) It was hit hard...but right at em. was he "juuuuuuuuuuuuust underneath it" as well?

So basically, no matter what comes out of the KLove situation, at this point the Bulls are securing some type of win.

Fan's take: "I actually saw him play against the [south Bend] Silver Hawks, and he did really well against them." Lol

@MDGonzales Olt optioned to Iowa. Looks like they replaced him with Tsuyoshi Wada, to start Wed.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 22, 2014 -> 02:00 PM) But of course, that spot would in theory be easier to fill than a corner OF spot. Another year of De Aza

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jul 22, 2014 -> 01:44 PM) Platooning a lefty with a lefty seems rather silly. But they wouldn't be platooned for handedness, they would be platooned to give Wilkins a shot especially since Dunn is gone after the year. I get it, after Dunn is gone, but if he's on the roster come September what's the point of him playing everyday? might as well give his spot to see a sample of Wilkins.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 22, 2014 -> 01:37 PM) So you want 4 1B/DH's on the team?? Not happening I'd just wait till September and let him have the whole month, and if Dunn is still on the roster than so be it, there'd be 4 DH/1B

QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ Jul 22, 2014 -> 01:30 PM) I personally think of change of scenery deal with Domonic Brown makes a lot of sense. Sox are going to need some LH power after Dunn leaves in the off-season. Brown is a year older and both are due for FA in 2018. Am i crazy to think that Wilkins should be brought up since he's having a good year, so that even if they don't trade Dunn, he could platoon with Dunn the rest of the year, just to give Wilkins his cup of coffee?

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 22, 2014 -> 01:28 PM) This team has no real shot of winning a wild card spot. and even if they were to somehow play well enough to get a wild card spot, I'd rather get some return on Danks while he's not getting lit up. Remember, the point of this whole thing to create a sustained contender, I would rather build to that than 1 wild card spot.

Thanks for the feedback fellas, I'm just gonna go for it and get the bundle when it comes out.

Anybody here in Destiny Beta? Is it the real deal? I got invited but I don't have a PS4, but if Destiny is good I'll likely get the white PS4 bundle.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 21, 2014 -> 01:11 PM) Micah Johnson is not being blocked by anyone. He is not ready for the majors yet. Even if Beckham is traded, he will not be the guy called up. This cannot be stressed enough.

QUOTE (StRoostifer @ Jul 19, 2014 -> 08:44 AM) I see a guy trying his best to keep the team loose while having some fun. I think its great Sierra shows some love for his teammates and outside of Connor everyone else looks like they enjoy it. That's about as far as I'm willing to read into it. I'm glad he's apart of this team. I feel like Connor just has a real serious demeanor, He probably thinks it's funny and knows it's good fun but that's just him, he's a serious guy who won't play around himself but probably finds it amusing watching the other guys mess around.

QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ Jul 17, 2014 -> 02:42 PM) Not necessarily, the Mariners need a SS and an OF, so Zobrist could slide in for Miller and they may still have interest in DV to play LF. More than likely if this were to happen, the Rays would acquire the prospects and/or players that the White Sox we're looking at for DV.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 16, 2014 -> 02:17 PM) For all their perceived problems they still had the best record in the East and took the Heat to 6 games Idk if they will be able to get out the first round this year without Stephenson though
