With just about 24 days away from the deadline I thought I would post a thread where we can add all the rumors.
This is from Rosenthal today
Ken Rosenthal @Ken_Rosenthal 2h
Sources: #WhiteSox’s Thornton on long #RedSox list of possible bullpen targets. #Braves also inquired on Thornton; interest “limited.”
I know some don't like Thorton but I do think he is a target all be it a "limited" one.
Sounds like we're interested in the Yankees Joba Chamberlain....

Olney says we were scouting Chase Utley during the Philly series.
Spoiler:
Heyman reports Braves interest in Oliver Perez. Yikes!

There is NO WAY Utley will be dealt to Atlanta. Next chance of having a new second baseman will be in the offseason
Starters like Perez can sometimes thrive when being limited to a relievers role. I would definitely give him a look. Either way unless an injury goes down we are really only looking at restocking the pen. I would prefer to get a shutdown loogy more than anything.
Getting Utley would send a strong message though!

Would you guy pull the trigger on this deal?
White Sox get:
Kris Medlen - RHP
J.R. Graham - RHP
Joey Terdoslovich - 1B/OF
Christian Bethancourt - C
Braves get:
Chris Sale - LHP
I think we overpay a tad in that deal. I assume Graham is a decent prospect? I'd probably do that deal though.
One of the reasons for getting away from The Other Place, besides PD's psychotic episodes, was to avoid dipsh*tted trade proposals.
That was harsh, Why does it bother you so much. Just disagree and move on

not a bad deal but I don't think Wren pulls the trigger
I don't get the aggressive reply here.
It's also not true.
The idea of this place is to be able to discuss anything you want without the fear of being banned for it.

It's going to encourage more of the same. 99% of the trade proposals at Scout were a waste of time and bandwidth.
When the invitations went to head over to InVision, it was with the understanding that it was going to be different. If this is just going to be a relocated Scout site with trades proposals and fantasy league talk, then just let me know.
Its gonna be what anybody wants to talk about. Thats what a discussion board is for. Not for you to come be a complete tool. I hope you hang around, but if this is how you are, you wont be missed by me.

A lot of us play fantasy, we most definitely will talk about that on here. There isn't going to be a ban on any particular topic.
Actually, the motto of this place has always been that this was basically just going to be a relocated Scout, without the fear of being censored or banned. You clearly missed something.
