Screw it - i'll buy into the rumor just because now i kind of want to. If it was Madrigal instead of Cease, sure. The last thing the Sox should be doing is trading pitching. But in theory, the most the Sox should be willing to part with is Madrigal+lower level prospects. A theoretical Arenado trade blocks Madrigal. Anyway this whole thing is complete bullshit, horseshit, dogshit, etc. Edited February 7, 2020 by Jack Parkman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly for more pitching. However, I think this is totally bogus and this guy needs to stop! Lol Moncada is still controlled for 4 seasons.

It's great to see the Sox trolling this dork...but now somehow...this dork will feel that he achieved his goal of getting noticed and make 20 more ridiculous trade claims. I am so glad to WFH today, as I can just laugh at this sillyness. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox59 Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 There are many things about this rumor that make it likely BS, but a big one is if you’re making this deal, trading Cease instead of Madrigal is a real head scratcher.

Where is a Madrigal going to play? the biggest issue is there is no way Arenado, a player, has been told this news, made a decision, and the only person that will hear about it for days is mlbintel.

Depends on how you view Cease.. or really how you view Kopech, Giolito, Lopez, Dunning, Keuchel, Gio, etc. Can never have too much pitching depth, but there's a log jam there if all pitch to their potential, plus we could always draft one in the 1st round this year. If you turn quintana into Eloy and Arenado and sign Quintana in the offseason ... that'd be cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One team cant just say, take this guy he's blocked in our system. Rockies have enough infielders - it's already an overflow situation of talent. They don't want Madrigal at all. If they move Arenado they just shift McMahon to 3b, Rodgers and Hampson STILL have to split 2b and they have Murphy at 1b. Once Murphy is gone next year, then it's Rodgers to 3b, McMahon to 1b and Hampson to 2b. Rockies are actually in a great position if they trade Arenado for pitching ... they just need to dump Desmond and his salary and then go sign another SP.

The post had nothing to do with the trade because it's not happening. It was meant to show why the white Sox cant force a team to take a certain player because the poster said why wouldnt madrigal be in the trade.
