harfman77 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 27, 2017 -> 09:25 AM) If Reyes isn't the headliner, I am not sure that a St Louis offer would beat what about half a dozen other teams could offer to top that. I think they could definitely put a package together that the Sox would consider, it would obviously be more about depth than headliners, but they have a pretty good mix of prospects with proximity and ceiling. Flaherty/Perez/Sierra/Kelly/Arozarena would be a sizable haul, though without a top 10 prospect overall. However, Flaherty, Perez, and Azorarena all have the potential to be top ten guys a year from now. Kelly is as close to an everyday MLB catcher as is out there, and Sierra is a toolsy OF in the mold of Basabe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Con te Giolito Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 STL is kind of like Atlanta or NYY, you're hoping to add five guys 45 FV or higher to the T30. That means no cant-miss guy at the top, but that also means spreading out the risk. This is the kind of deal I would rather have for Q to be honest.

heirdog Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 This felt like the "Sale scratched from start" news that broke just before the deadline. Most everyone thought trade about to go down. Alas, "Quintana scratched from SoxFest" didn't last long. Makes sense because Jose doesn't seem like a guy who would cut up SoxFest programs because he didn't like his photo in there. 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackSox13 Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 (edited) Must have been the Yanks coming to their senses and realizing McCutchen is not a fit considering the Yanks depth in the outfield at both the big league club and their minors. Could have been an interesting trade. Wonder what players were potentially heading to the Sox. Glasnow, Rutherford, Newman ++?

The Beast Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Well, if the rumored three way trade fell apart and we are going into the season with Quintana, I hope he stays healthy and they deal him for a haul before the deadline. That's all we can hope for from a risk perspective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying the rumors were false, just didn't make sense for the Yanks unless somehow the trade had Cole going to the Yanks with Cutch.

BlackSox13 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 . The Astros haven’t been willing to give up 21-year-old pitching prospect Francis Martes in a deal for White Sox ace Jose Quintana, and it’s no surprise, given the Houston organization’s opinion of Martes. “He’s got as high a ceiling as probably as any righty in the major leagues,” Astros assistant general manager Mike Elias told David Laurila of FanGraphs. “He has such a gifted arm, and such a weapon breaking ball, plus the changeup as a third pitch. Something that can be lost sight of is how young he is. He went to Double-A (late in the 2015 season) and held his own. In and of itself, that says something. If you look at the list of guys who have pitched well in Double-A at age 19, it’s a really, really impressive list.” If Martes’ effectiveness continues in 2017, “his road to Houston could be a very fast one,” per Elias. http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2017/01/al-n...p;post-id=84006 Provides a touch more clarity. So it sounds like Houston insists that both Musgrove and Martes are off the table. Looking at their pitching staff, I can't say I blame them. Still think they have the pieces to get a deal done as long as the rest of their MiLB players are available. Reed, Tucker, Fisher, Whitley and Stubbs would still be a nice haul, IMHO.

soxforlife05 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 I don't buy it. Just posturing. The Red Sox moved the #1 prospect who was considered untouchable. No prospect is off limits besides the obvious ones - Turner, Bregman, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
