Can't you continue working on your deal after the 3 pm deadline? I thought I heard that before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to have everything submitted to the Commissioner's Office by the deadline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but if there is a deal, it has likely been worked on for awhile and not just thrown together today. But you never know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, but the players would have to clear waivers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think a few hours before the trading deadline are a hot time to sell tickets. Fans aren't that finicky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fans aren't that finicky. I'm talking overall. The "stealth" thing is OK, but I think its good to have the Sox out there in on everyone, even though we all know a lot of it will be BS, and have as many people possible discussing White Sox baseball.

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 In a few minutes, MLB.com will be airing a Trade Dealine show. I'm assuming it's going to be simulcasted on MLB Network as well, but I don't have MLB Network. http://mlb.mlb.com/video/play.jsp?topic_id...ent_id=23466717 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spiderman Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 I'm still not buying it. The bottom line is that they have 3 starters who have durability concerns. Unless Williams is using Floyd as part of a deal to improve the starting rotation, I don't think there's a deal to be made in the next hour, and I willl be shocked if he's part of a deal for an upgrade on offense.

I'm sure Kenny Williams has looked into every impact player he can that makes sense to the team, he probably doesn't give up easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
