dyuen Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jul 28, 2011 -> 12:01 PM) LOL, WHAT? Is that a joke? f***ing s***, I would be fine if Kenny through in Matt Thornton and any prospect not named Viciedo/Reed if it meant Brown, Singleton, AND Cosart. That's beyond video-game level trade. i would certainly give up reed if we got those 3, not happening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One holdup...the condition of Viciedo's thumb at AAA. Would replace Quentin for #WhiteSox. Hasn't played since Saturday. The asking price is going up by the minute.

One holdup...the condition of Viciedo's thumb at AAA. Would replace Quentin for #WhiteSox. Hasn't played since Saturday. You trade Q. You have to. Sox have adequate replacement in Viciedo, and can really help re-build for the future. Despite the Sox only being 3.5 games back, we are too inconsistent to make the playoffs. Atlanta has some of the best prospects in baseball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baron Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 But if we ended up trading for a pitcher from the Braves we should just put Rios out there.Thats all Im saying. But Im all for a bidding war. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Young, talented pitching is how you win for the future. Get those good arms that are cost-controlled, and you are set up terrifically for the future.

chisoxfan09 Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 I agree with Rock and Jenksy on this one. You have to sell high. Â This. Agree 1000%. Does anyone know his splits hitting against the NL in intra league play? It is rather surprising he has fared so poorly against LH pitching in 09/10 before this year.

fathom Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Hell, if you get a great package for CQ, then you can put Rios in RF for 2 weeks while Viciedo recovers.

Let's face it...losing Quentin this year probably eliminates you from the AL Central pennant chase. Â Heck, I could live with that if we get a good haul. This "All In" we were peddled just never got off the ground. Time to start thinking of the future soon. Our "All In" window is really not that great for going forward. And speaking of cost controlled good young arms apart from Humber/Floyd as locked in for next year everyone else is a question mark. We may be able to re-sign Buerhle to a home town discount this time around but Peavy is a risk every year now and Danks I expect to be gone as well. I don't see him resigning with us if we keep him until next year. At least if he rebounds and has a strong 2012 and we offer him arb he might be a Type A FA and get us 2 good picks (Worse case scenario).

Rowand44 Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 If this stuff being bantered around the media is true than Q has to be gone at the end of this weekend, just has to.
