Dick Allen Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 If the Sox had to trade Kopech or Cease or Vaughn to get Lynn or Clevinger, I am glad they are standing pat, if that is what they are doing. 6 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The excuses afterwards aren't good enough. In their defense, they haven't really talked much about it. There has been plenty of rumors that they've looked at pitchers, but much of what we're going off of is speculation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're in here rambling about racism and having pissing contests. This is about trades. The trade deadline. Playoff baseball etc. Go derail a thread that's less important to others right now. yes, every post in this thread is about the trade deadline. ive' made tons of posts about trades. meanwhile you've made one post in this thread and it had nothing to do with the topic at hand. congratulations. keep posting some fake rumors and keep that insider cred.

Chicago White Sox Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 If the Sox haven’t made a move, we usually find right before or after the actual deadline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 I do think a beat writer or two expected the Sox to get a pitcher. They still might. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted August 31, 2020 Author Share Posted August 31, 2020 As someone who was critical of sox talking big and not delivering in 18 offseason...this was not that. I wanted Clevinger or Lynn or obviously Woodruff (or Degrom), but if it's not there it's not there. I'm just glad dunning did what he's done so far.

It was literally just "Sox and Indians have talked Clevinger" which could have been true. There could have been quick discussion for a move that was clearing not going to happen.

BigHurt3515 Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 I am going to be more upset that we haven't upgraded the bullpen after how it has been the past week or so and without knowing when or if Bummer might be back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So them calling and asking about a player on another team isn't the saying "OMG FANS WE ARE 100% MAKING A BIG MOVE GET PUUUUMPED!!!" They literally probably just kicked the tires on him.
