Totally agree. Will be really bummed if we trade Dunning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michelangelosmonkey Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 1 hour ago, Chicago White Sox said: If we're mapping out our near-term rotation plans, here's how I have things shaking out assuming the addition of Lynn and based on a theoretical acquisition cost of Lopez, Stiever, Collins, & Adolfo. This is great work and how can you not be excited about pitching moving forward? If Dunning goes instead of Stiever...Stievers younger and many think could be as good. The Dunning-Mize pitch off seemed like a showcase. If you were Rangers and could show your fans the Dunning game plus Collins plus Lopez I think they would be happy. I do like throwing in Elijiah Tatis to make Soxtalk lose their minds. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You gotta give to get, and Lynn is under contract next season. If they were only trading for a chance to win in this asterisk season, I'd definitely be against it.

The issue I take with trading dunning is we are set up to be contenders for the next 5-7 years at a minimum. Shipping him off for a year and a month of Lynn who is long in the tooth to begin with could be bad for the long term outlook if another starter doesn’t develop in the farm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michelangelosmonkey Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 I like Dunning but for the next 18 months Lynn is going to be consistantly better. After that we have 8 prospects as exciting as Dunning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigHurt3515 Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 One thing I haven't really thought about and haven't seen mentioned is Dunning and his pitching limits. Dude hasn't pitched in 2 years and will not get a full work load this year so he probably won't be able to throw 180+ innings until 2022 at the earliest. It is a tough call Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eovaldi is owed $17M in 2021 and 2022. He's dealing with a calf issue right now, but anyone see possible interest there? Hurt a lot. Hasn't lived up to big contract he signed. Don't see him as an upgrade. I'd pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Starting to feel like trade winds are real. Hoping for Lynn and prefer sending Kopech (vs. Dunning). Isn't Kopech from Tx. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes the fact that they had him come up just to be sent back down make sense. Probably a showcase of sorts. Yeah, it does make a ton of sense to be honest.

I can see him as a top starter but can also see him as a soap opera with reliever risk. Ideally, we can nab Lynn w/o giving up Dunning or Kopech. Maybe something like Lopez, Collins, Steiver and Pilkington. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 There will be a trade that hurts in the next couple years, but if it means 95+ win seasons, ALCSs, World Series, and maybe a parade someday...you do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 5 years no one will remember just like '81 was a strike shortened season. Does that dodger WS have an asterisk? in any fans mind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
