Balta1701 Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 QUOTE (iamshack @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 01:10 AM) Gomez to re-sign with Rangers for 11.5 million. I really hate that the White Sox aren't beating this. $10.5 million with a $1.5 million buyout/$10 million option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whisox05 Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 There's an increasing sense among teams in the elite-closer market that Kenley Jansen and Aroldis Chapman could be close to decisions. https://twitter.com/JeffPassan/status/806501833854386176 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being in Denver will help make it look no so bad in all likelihood, but he was trending down until a big first half last season. The second half, he put up a .630 OPS, in Texas. That is pretty awful.

Chisoxfn Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 05:24 AM) That is f***ing insane. They are getting Wade Davis for Avi Garcia. Soler is far better then Garcia. I don't think this is a bad deal for the Royals at all. Cubs have flexibility to move Soler but I'm surprised they are doing it for a closer who is a FA at the end of the year and has had some arm issues.

Dick Allen Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Maybe things will go nuts this afternoon and evening, but for an event that was hyped up as going to be crazy, there hasn't been many trades. Without the Sale trade, this Winter Meetings has been a snooze fest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without the Sale trade, this Winter Meetings has been a snooze fest. If I remember right, tomorrow is usually a non-event for news, so either stuff picks up later today or tonight or the meetings will end up having been very quiet. That said, I think we see a few more moves before Christmas. I also think if the Sox plan on moving Q, they would move him pretty quickly (as by and large the same suitors for Sale would be in on Q and we'd have presumably already done a ton of vetting on those lists, etc).

Wonder if: 1) Turner signs back with the Dodgers soon, since they were he only team I really heard seriously linked to him. 2) This affects the Rockies plans. They were supposedly talking Blackmon with the Cards, and I don't buy that Desmond is their 1B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were supposedly talking Blackmon with the Cards, and I don't buy that Desmond is their 1B. They could put CarGo at first, or trade one of them to the Blue Jays for pitching. FYI - I guess Turner is in Curacao attending Kenley Jansen's wedding, so there may not be a deal for either for a lil bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
