Yeah Texas was first team I thought about. Honestly next team I thought about was Cubs and Hendricks, but that would cause the worst spelling ever on this site. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marco Gonzalez is probably more available than most of the other rumored names. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wouldn't say a really good history, but we do share the spring training facilities and we have done some deals over the years. Plus the pkg being talked about could fit their needs, if one were to squint just a little bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dodgers have like 61 extra starters that would be expendable. At least it always seems like it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YouCanPutItOnTheBoardYES! 1,452 Posted January 12 I feel like he’s referring to Milwaukee. There was awhile when the Sox traded a reliever to them every single year. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But agree that Madrigal probably can't headline a deal for Burnes, and definitely can't for Woodruff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CWSpalehoseCWS 622 Posted January 12 Sonny Gray or Marco Gonzales make the most sense to me. Both cheap, controlled arms. Sox have been linked to both teams too. Hell, I feel like Gonzales pops up every offseason as a guy connected to the Sox, and he had a sneaky good 2020. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
