Hahn and Co. should have a very good idea of what his trade value is and if a trade package is the right move to make. We very well could be seeing Quintana's market heating up as teams realize the Sox are serious about moving him. Time to get offers in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been on the market so long at this point that any potential deal should come together very quickly if/when it happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Sacamano Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 I could buy it since the guy with inside sources here (Rabbit) said yesterday a few pages back that he thinks we will be disappointed with the return. Maybe there is motivation to move him in coming weeks and they ultimately budge on their price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtySox Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 I wouldn't want to wait either considering there are more pieces that also need to be moved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 I'm sure they realize the sooner they trade these guys the less money they will pay, and the more losses they will accumulate. Someone will blink with Q, I would think. I believe the return for Robertson won't be so great. I don't think 2 months of Swarzak will get you anything but a lottery ticket, but it's worth taking. Frazier stays hot, he may get you a halfway decent prospect. Melky is a lottery ticket type, as are the rest unless you go into trading Abreu, which I find unlikely.

Bob Sacamano Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 QUOTE (raBBit @ Jul 11, 2017 -> 12:27 PM) McGuffey's legit. I'd imagine he got a call from someone with the Sox leading to him deleting the tweet. There's a lot of smoke here. Brewers, Yanks, Braves and rockies are the teams. Sox preparing internally for the after effects of a Q trade. They don't want to wait until 7/31. They don't want to feel forced. I think they'll say they don't have to trade him but you can be sure they want to. I think we might be a bit disappointed with return as I've said before. Good stuff. Thanks.

steveno89 Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 QUOTE (hi8is @ Jul 11, 2017 -> 12:29 PM) The way you state those team names - with authority - it seems like you've got an inside track here. Couple that with the continued, "disappointed" references... I've got to ask: Do you know of any of the packages being discussed / offered / countered at this stage? For me to be overtly disappointed the Sox would have to settle for a package significantly less than Sale/Eaton A Rutherford headlined deal from the Yankees would quality A Fisher headlined deal from the Astros A Ray headlined deal from the Brewers A McMahon headlined deal from the Rockies Essentially a deal where we accept a team's second tier guys and allow the buyer to keep the truly elite prospects off the table would be disappointing.

When you say "disappointed with return" - would that be in the headliner of the deal or the overall depth of the package? I would be okay with a Quintana deal if the depth makes up for a non-headliner (Frazier, Brinson, Rodgers). I feel like it has to be one or the other.
