So Thornton is the bonus for taking Rios contract on top of paying for most of Rios's contract?

My favorite teams
  1. Chicago White Sox
  1. Chicago Bulls
  1. Chicago Bears
  1. Chicago Blackhawks
  1. Toledo Rockets
Per this guy: Twitter

Centerpiece in the Gamel to White Sox trade is Thornton/Rios,still gathering more in terms of farm players being discussed. WS eating Rios $

Nothing is final quite yet, but the White Sox are expected to eat most of Rios's remaining $, and Thornton will be a centerpiece.

Still gathering minor league players being discussed from both teams in the Gamel to White Sox trade #whitesox #brewers.

and some Older ones:

Edwin Jackson, Matt Thornton, Carlos Quentin, and Will Ohman (if someone calls) are all expected to be moved in the coming week #WhiteSox

The only players on the White Sox not expected to be involved in trade talks are Rios, Dunn (Salary), Konerko, Humber, Santos, Crain cont...Gordon Beckham, Alexei Ramirez, Chris Sale, Peavy (Salary) #WhiteSox

and finally:

All systems on the Southside seem to be a go to free up salary, attain younger talent, and listen to phone calls and deal #whitesox


There are a lot more but those are the ones I found interesting.

Rumors still swirling around Quentin. Sox saying they would "absolutely" trade him for the right deal, but aren't intent on moving him.

2B, 3B, and LF don't need to upgrade.
If the Sox give up Beckham and/or Morel they'll be doing the same thing they are doing right now with Daniel Hudson. Watching him become a great player. They need to keep those two. And for left field, Pierre was in a slump, but in case you haven't noticed he is out of that slump. He is getting on base and stealing bases better.

Now that Pence is on the Phillies, the Braves are the only contenders for Quentin. I'm not really afraid that he'll go there. I was afraid the Phillies would make the big move for him.

Trading CQ would be a white flag trade. Being 3 games out, that would further cement the idea that KW is a dumbass.

LOL @ Beckham or Morel becoming great players. Both of them are average at best and they aren't going to be getting much better.

so true.

2 games back in the loss column, and we are going to sell? great.

but again, this may be some more BS and at the deadline we could be buyers. who knows.

Pending on what happens by sunday, KW will have to make a deal that is "amazing" for me to keep sticking up for him. if not, i may jump on the side of gunzaan.
