Mets, Padres, A’s. I like the way you think though about the Rockies, as it could allow them to trade Arenado for catching and prospects (ie: Contreras +)

Well they are also linked to two guys coming off major injuries (Miller and Britton)

Craig Mish hasn’t mentioned anything about the WSox being after him. He’s a great Marlins source. Yesterday he thought Braves were most likely winner. As I said in another thread, I wonder if the Sox would go after Flowers then.

I don’t blame him for Tatis, I blame him for wanting Shields.

So all the beat writers are suggesting the Sox are going to go after the following at the Winter Meetings: - catcher (Grandal) - veteran starter (Gio and Shoemaker) - reliever (Familia) - outfielder and/or 3rd base (Brantley and Tim Beckham) Predictions? (mine)

but what is Eloy's Q rating?

And he wants Posey money also

No thanks considering cost acquisition and how much he wants in free agency

Whole season if they’re not going all in

Chicago Sting

To be fair, he did get to face our pitchers in 18 games

Hey mods, any possibility of getting separate Harper and Machado threads?

Nothing major, but Spanish announcer for Yanks and Eagles says he’s heard Sox are heavily involved with Machado https://mobile.twitter.com/RR_RicardoFAN/status/1070915279792848896

Keuchel does have some Buehrle qualities that I could see them being interested in.

That’s a hard pass https://mobile.twitter.com/DOBrienATL/status/1070484245934694403

I think they’ll force it way more than they did last offseason, as illustrated by Avi/Davidson and reports of them spending big.

Earlier today he responded to someone who asked if Sox are so confident in getting Harper that they are focused on him and not starting pitching, he said “no”

Within the column, he also says Machado is still saying he wants to play SS

thanks for posting...I think he mentions Marwin as an option for almost 10 teams. I'm more intrigued by the "spending big" comment

It's funny how all the tweets of the conference call at the time talked about Hahn going after the free agents, but not one of them included that he said "That doesn’t mean we can guarantee by any stretch that we’re going to convert on these targets.’’

This went from intriguing to entertaining to annoying. Thanks for sharing Jake, let’s hope for the best

that rumor about liking Chicago started when he named his dog Wrigley, and only exploded more when he told TMZ he likes the food in the city. Supposedly he grew up a Yanks fan though.

sorry if this was touched upon earlier, but does Vaughn project to be a 1st baseman?

could you imagine how tough it will be for greg to say who won the winter if the Sox sign Manny/Bryce and Royals sign Avi/Davidson?

Just wait until Stroman's a free agent
