Balta1701 Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 By the way, given how good Hudson's stuff was today, the fact that the White Sox are challenging in this game really should be impressing us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 If they did trade him, Hahn probably saw him loaf down the line and realized his value wasn't going to go higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baron Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 19, 2013 -> 09:26 PM) No way it's true, as we all know Rios doesn't like anyone and would never hug them!

fathom Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Rios and the Pirates would be quite the combo. A player infamous for playing a ton of games without a playoff appearance going to the perennial losers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy the Clown Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Yea. I'm going with the benching. If that is true, it's about the dumbest thing Ventura could possibly do. Particularly with all the scouts in the audience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigHurt3515 Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 If he dogged it in the 5th why would he be benched in the 7th? That doesn't make sense unless he said something to Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsideirish71 Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jul 19, 2013 -> 09:31 PM) Yea. I'm going with the benching. Benching a player you are actively trying to trade is about as dumb as it gets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rios loafs down the line and costs the Sox a run, and if Ventura pulls him, people b****. Further proof White Sox fans will complain about everything.

TaylorStSox Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 I didn't see the play, but if people are claiming he dogged it, I'll just assume he was playing hard. People really just love to make s*** up about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 20, 2013 -> 03:21 AM) Sounds good to me. Btw its going to suck to see Rios go. One of my favorite players on this team. Wow. Baron. I respect you for liking whomever you want, but Rios? I respect you because I was a big fan of Wise and Pierre. People couldn't understand me for that. QUOTE (Andy the Clown @ Jul 20, 2013 -> 03:32 AM) If that is true, it's about the dumbest thing Ventura could possibly do. Particularly with all the scouts in the audience. On the contrary. I wish it was true cause I'd worship Robin FOREVER. Worship is probably the wrong word. Respect him and back him though.

I LOVE Robin if he benched him, but I agree it looks instead like he was traded.
