I would hate to lose Madrigal as well but I wonder who else we could swap in place of him in a trade? No worries, Orlando. Thank you for the kudos!

Flash Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Guys - doubt we'll see WS announce trades or FA pursuits until deep into hot stove season. Too much financial uncertainty. If/when they do, my guess is they will focus on pitching. They might have a shot at Bauer but I'm skeptical. My #1 target is Darvish (assuming the Cubs shed payroll). He's locked up for 3 yrs at -$20M/AAV and on a given day, is as good as there is. If Cubs create an auction for him, I would consider taking on Kimbrels remaining year (hell, he might still have something left in the tank). Under a Darvish/Kimbrel scenario, we might have to send Cease back but not much else. Gio, Dallas and Darvish compare favorably to any AL team and you can fill in 4/5 with Dunning, Koepech or FA like a Quintana, Smiley or Paxton. Again...this is all subject to economic visibility.

Lose colome and Marshall and replace him with McGee.. Bullpen still makes me nervous since they're so young.

More than most I reckon. But if it comes down to trading Madrigal or Vaughn for a controlled piece, I'm sending out Nick in a split second. Vaughn's offensive profile is sorely needed in the White Sox lineup. He just fits so well. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The minute those two are off the market then Madrigal will be magically untouchable again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orlando Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Portillo’s was claiming that Darvish was available and a Sox target, he and Al’s are now bragging because their was an article today indicating he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just pointing out how deep 2B is in free agency and how our fans think when speculating about trades. I believe Vaughn is more likely to be dealt specifically because 1B is so thin.

Springfield Soxfan Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 I do not see anyway Madrigal and Vaughn get dealt. They are cheap and they both were the justifications for those two tanking seasons. Just my gut feeling. Also, is Evan Marshall a free agent? Why are people fearful of losing him? Have a great day and love the posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh i get what you are saying. Yeah, there are not a lot of teams that are a fit for Madrigal. Especially outside of our division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSox59 Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 1 hour ago, Harold's Leg Lift said: Lynn is such a great fit for the rotation. He can slide in behind Giolito and give them lots of quality competitive innings which is exactly what this team needs. The bullpen can take a couple days off from the five and dive guys in the back of the rotation. But then he walks in a year and we’re now without what ever we traded for him with a huge part of the window still ahead. If you can get him without any of the elite prospects, I’m more interested. But I’m not trading any of Vaughn, Kopech, Madrigal, Cease, Dunning or other long term mlb assets for 1 year of Lance Lynn. Stiever + lower level pieces makes sense, but I’m sure TEX can do better. Why give up major future building blocks when we can sign SP for nothing but dollars in a depressed market? 2021 is just the very beginning of this window of contention. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
