Giles getting hurt and the Pirates not willing to trade Vasquez looks like a blessing for the Sox. We can hope. Still nervous about the amount of modern front offices that will focus on his not great peripherals. All it takes is one team to panic though.

With the Giants recent surge, there are fewer and fewer options available. Colome has a track record of being good, I don‘t think the peripherals in a small sample size are causing much panic.

I think we can rest assured that if Colome is traded, the return will be worthwhile. Otherwise he just won't be traded. Its that simple. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YouCanPutItOnTheBoardYES! Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Colomé has a grand total of 1 blown save this season. Peripherals or not, he is a damn good closer who should net the Sox a quality package if they decide to trade him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BackDoorBreach Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Giles had MRI, no structural damage. Did get cortisone shot and will not pitch again before deadline. This is good for Colome market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago White Sox Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 (edited) What relievers are clearly more valuable than Colome that will actually be available and healthy? Edited July 30, 2019 by Chicago White Sox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diaz, he's technically available although the Mets are asking for ridiculous trades. Amir Garret from Cincy if he's available, not sure he is though.

I believe Kennedy has like $38M still left on his deal, so I can’t see anyone taking him without the Royals eating quite a bit of money. Doesn’t sound like the Giants want to trade Smith and Vazquez seems almost too cost prohibitive to acquire. That list makes me feel much more optimistic that we’ll be able to get something decent for Colome.

He's an outstanding pitcher with another 4 years of control left but nobody is paying that. Pitt also doesn't need to trade him unless they get blown away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BackDoorBreach Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Kirby Yates I think is available too, he'd get more than Colome. I forgot about him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is not a list of who is more valuable. It is a list of who is most likely to be traded. Big difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold's Leg Lift Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 The methodology, if you can call it that, is pretty straightforward. We’re ordering players based upon a combination of trade value and trade likelihood. Or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not trying to start a debate but a lot of those guys on that list are nowhere near as good or valuable as Colome. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
