That’s definitely an offer we could’ve matched if Sox preferred. Simien makes sense talent wise, but Chris Taylor at probably more than half the price really interests me. Jeff McNeil trade I prefer over segura. I think Cavan biggio could also be an interesting trade partner for second base. Toronto could deal excess catcher in that deal as well. Go Sox!

What I hope they do: sign yan Gomes. Bring back Rodon on one year contract. Trade keuchel for wil Myers. Trade Kimbrel after picking up option for segura or gregorious. Start kopech and crochet creatively such as six man rotation at times or have them combine to pitch majority of same game. Keep Vaughn and sheets unless it’s for similar level of young player ability and contract wise but may fit roster better. The Sox payroll flexibility is seemingly gone. Going to need to be willing to take on similar iffy contracts that help balance roster better. I can only hope they truly try to win every year going forward with this group.

Keuchel for James mccann. We are not going to get much in young prospects for keuchel or Kimbrel so trying to find somewhat similar monetary situations that may help both teams roster needs. As far as Kimbrel, guys like Myers, gallo, Cain, kiermaier come to mind.

If this storm comes tomorrow, do you guys think rain out is advantage for either team?

I’d be for it. You never know how long our quality window will be no matter how good it looks now. Trading for machado could be a way to get off hook for keuchels contract. He just may be close to useless next two years. It’d be poor for us long term probably but please max out this window us my desire. Keuchel for wil Myers makes some sense as well with very similar contracts. Thoughts?

Is this new rule similar to hockey where you just have to have 28 guys on line up card for the night? Then you can switch it next night as you please? Any info or clarification would be appreciated. Thanks.

Has there been any update on when Leury comes back from concussion? With Grandal supposedly coming back Monday, just trying to figure roster construction prior to September 1. Thoughts ?

They have been checking tickets on your phone pretty carefully since all star break.

Nats selling off anything they can. Maybe white Sox can get yan Gomes tomorrow. Dream big!

Gammons reporting Fabian won’t sign with Red Sox.

Anyone know the answer of last time sox had a walk off against a starting pitcher? Obviously weird circumstance tonight, but I bet it’s been a while.

Orioles also saved by taking cowser, but didn’t seem to go high upside after that either like the royals.

1. Richard Rodriguez and Jacob stallings FOR burger, Collins, Kelley, López. 2. Daniel bard and Ryan McMahon FOR sheets, afolfo, dahlquist, Truly not sure if we would need to give up more for four guys not on last year of contract. The players and positions(reliever, catcher, infield with flex), I feel is most necessary for this year. Lynn signing does allow Sox to more freely trade pitching depth. There will be strong competition for these players if they are deemed tradeable. Go Sox!

Catcher luca tresch from Nc state would be nice.

Looks like thatcher Hurd is going to go to UCLA unless he is posturing.

A Daniel bard and Ryan McMahon combo would possibly work. McMahon has lost playing time recently and has some position flexibility. Bard not as good as last year but he’s a vet with set up and closing experience in big games. He also still has some contract flexibility left. They cost something but you need to give to get.

I’d prefer to take bednar or wicks if they fall in first round, then go high school hitter with upside in round two. If all the high end college starters are gone, then go high school hitters in first two rounds. Big night tomorrow to start rebuilding our prospects.

Really hope sox are willing to dfa lamb when healthy. Let the kids play, an old motto but apt with burger and sheets performing decently.

Looks like now four Astros declining asg invite. Pretty shady. Hope we sweep these jags after the break.

Yes, i like the Giolito, keuchel, cease for the Astros series. The doubleheader is actually Monday so lynn and Rodon could both go in that day if desired. Kopech could go then either one of those games or the Tuesday.

I’m all for high upside high school bats and there looks to be a few that could be available. If Jordan wicks lasts I do think he may fit more into the open window that we are in the midst of. Never heard any national people or our forum speak about sox getting wicks. Is this because he will definitely be gone or that he’s not a smart pick?

Thanks for the summaries. Now less than a month away, who are a couple of your preferred picks that may be available at pick 22?

My two cents on the frustrating revolving door on who hits second. I’d like it to be more consistent. I’m thinking Anderson Moncada abreu bat in first three spots. It would in long run get yoan and Jose a few more at bats. Grandal would not be effected batting clean up or just have Yermin continue behind Jose mostly. Surprised I haven’t seen anyone mention this I believe. Thoughts?

Trade for Tucker Barnhart or sign Tyler Flowers. Sign Quintana. Save a little money for July in this caseto determine exactly what we need. Use the DH with Grandal, Flowers, Collins,Jose,Yoan, Eloy until Vaughn may be ready. My dream is to go big and trade for Ketel Marte or Whit Merrifield. Yes they should cost a lot. I cannot believe how friendly their contracts still are. I would love the position flexibility for both those guys.

I know everyone gets their "pet" idea to solve all the sox offseason problems each year. I have had some that I keep coming back to. So I have a few trade pairings from the same club and was interested which one you think would help the Sox most for the 2021 season only to win. Assume the trade package would be equal/fair or even substantial to all the things that have been thrown out on this strand. I look forward to hearing your answers.
