caulfield12 Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 (edited) Rumor: White Sox balk at Athletics’ bonkers trade demand for Frankie Montas Manaea has since been dealt to the Padres, with USA Today’s Bob Nightengale reporting that the White Sox “nearly” landed Manaea instead, and are still looking at Montas. However, the A’s want young slugger Andrew Vaughn back in return, and the Sox are balking at the demand. The White Sox have looked into Sean Manaea, who was dealt to the San Diego Padres, and Montas. However, the Athletics are seeking slugger Andrew Vaughn in return, a move Chicago is seemingly unwilling to make. https://clutchpoints.com/rumor-white-sox-balk-at-athletics-bonkers-trade-demand-for-frankie-montas/ So the rumor was supposedly Montgomery + for Manaea? Who the heck came up with THAT headline, btw? What the hell is "clutchpoints"? Seems like a site for people with runny stomachs who can't get to the bathroom on time...

If they had given up Montgomery+ for one year of Manaea, that would have been a disaster of BIBLICAL proportions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxlover15 Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 Vaughn? Hell no !! how about Kelley for a not so great Montas? The minor league Kelly not the injured one on the major league roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chick Mercedes Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 (edited) 5 hours ago, fathom said: You mean like the Eaton for Giolito, Lopez and Dunning No. Because when the Sox are the team trading veterans for prospects they do well. But that’s not the scenario right now. Its the other way around. The Sox are horrible at trading prospects for veterans.Its why trading prospects for Montas is ironic. He is another ex Sox prospect that we gave away for a veteran that doesn’t quite work. The Sox trading for veterans with their prospects is like the search for Moby Dick.

The opening day starter for a championship contender. Leury for Rios was a very good trade but never gets a mention when talking deals.

I was just frustrated by their opportunity to win it all now so I was out of line. Let me add that I am buzzed not drunk but i am editing all my posts so it is taking a while. I respect all on this board and would appreciate the same thank you!! No reason to edit the posts...we all understood what was meant. Some guys just need to pull your chain.

Keeping Vaughn and getting rid of Sheets is some people's here wet dream.

And what an unbelievable steal it was for the Sox. If the price tag on Montas is too high, just wait until July when more pitchers are available and we know who’s healthy.

Squirmin' for Yermin Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 What a night to be away from the forum.. Was really hoping to deal Sheets before his value craters, but clearly he can't headline a deal for a capable starter.. Montgomery trade makes me nervous but the right cost.

Look at Ray Ray Run Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 8 hours ago, caulfield12 said: Ray Ray, you have it all wrong. SoxTalk needs good villains and bad guys to keep the likes/emojis flowing. Otherwise, it's just one big circle jerk. Ron, Greg, Parkman, Caulfield. Balta is the Devil's Advocate with a social conscience. Ray Ray enjoys arguing with nearly everyone and really doesn't seem to care what people think about him, but his insights are more valuable than his irascibility. Maybe it's easier to characterize it as impatience with those less well-informed or lacking in athletic backgrounds. Caufield, how much are those emojis worth to soxtalk? Millions I'm guessing! According to my sources Everytime an emoji is placed, ss2k gets a $5 deposit into his white sox bmo account. Same source also told me soxtalk is considering monetizing emojis so they can really reap the benefits of the insiders voice. Wonder what the soxtalk laughing emoji is gonna trade for on the nft marketplace. Stay tuned! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tnetennba Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 I wonder if pieces were mostly agreed upon yesterday but Oakland circled back to a Vaughn ask and talks stalled. The tweets feel like the Sox side negotiating through the media, but I could just be eagerly reading way too much into it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
