Dick Allen Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 (edited) I think this is going to be a slow week all around. Not many FA have signed. They really should back these meetings up month or so, and maybe provide some incentive for teams and free agents to sign sooner. Maybe make the compensation lower for the tendered guys the earlier they sign. They could still hold the job fair.

steveno89 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 QUOTE (bmags @ Dec 11, 2017 -> 09:43 AM) Heyman subtlety setting up a JBJ for Schwarber trade. Edit: nightengale not heyman Why would Boston do that? JBJ surely has more trade value than Schwarber after his replacement level 129 games in 2017? I get Cubs fans are obsessed with him, but outside of playoff heroics he just hasn't been very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Sacamano Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 (edited) The first day of the Winter Meetings always seems boring. First night through the third night always seems active. Day 4 is just the Rule 5 Draft for the most part. Edited December 11, 2017 by soxfan2014 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreatScott82 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Sounds like the Red Sox want to replace JBJ with a power hitting run produer in the corner spot. I'm thinking they will sign JD Martinez, put him in LF and shift Benintendi to CF. It will be interesting to see how the market lines up for Abreu. Bruce Levine said the teams who missed out on Stanton-- SF and STL can come calling for Abreu. (No surprise there) Hahn would be selling really high on Abreu and i'm assuming he would have to be extremely overwhelmed to deal him. What does the market look like for Avi?? I feel he is the biggest wildcard going into these meetings. I say there is a 70% chance he gets traded and a 20% chance Abreu does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tray Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Would Abreu plus Avi G be enough to get Benintendi . Chavis,. and another prospect from BoSox? I don't think so, but thought I would ask for other opinions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted December 11, 2017 Author Share Posted December 11, 2017 (edited) QUOTE (Sockin @ Dec 11, 2017 -> 03:44 PM) https://twitter.com/ChuckGarfien/status/940333429912154114 @ChuckGarfien Hahn says there’s been a heightened level of trade talk since the meetings began. I really don’t think Carlos Sanchez will be on the White Sox 72 hours from now. A lot of teams are looking for 2B and Sanchez is probably one of the more attractive options.

Balta1701 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 @CST_soxvan It's early, but there is growing sense #WhiteSox might not top Rule 5 Draft Thurs for significant activity this week. Repeat: it's early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
