Brewers nearing trade
QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jan 22, 2018 -> 12:55 AM) Eric Hubbs @BarstoolHubbs A little birdy told me Jacoby Ellsbury is heading to Milwaukee. Nothing definitive yet, but keep your ears peeled. I'll believe anything at this point Would likely mean Yu to Yanks

Brewers nearing trade
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 21, 2018 -> 11:34 PM) Yeah outside of Yolmer, I am not sure I see what the match up between the Sox and Brewers would be. Abreu

Adam Engel
Leury is so underrated on this site. He was on his way to a huge WAR prior to the injury.

Brewers Acquire Christian Yelich & sign Lorenzo Cain
The Cease stuff is more based on what scouts seem to suggest in terms of his future. He would be a top 50 guy if he was projected as a starter.

Brewers Acquire Christian Yelich & sign Lorenzo Cain
QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jan 19, 2018 -> 08:52 PM) I agree that this is probably what it would take. I'd never do it though, and I doubt the Sox would either. Not worth it at this point in the rebuild How could you say no? Rutherford is coming off of a horrible season and if he shows no improvement is barely a top 30 org prospect. Cease by all accounts is destined to be a closer. It would be selling high on Hansen who had a great year but is by no means a lock to be a top pitcher. Yelich gives you cost certainty and flexibility heading into 2019 free agency class.

Brewers Acquire Christian Yelich & sign Lorenzo Cain
QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Jan 19, 2018 -> 08:43 PM) Still a no thanks for me for what his price will be. Most people consider the Eaton trade a fleece'in of the Nats, I'd rather not be on that same page for a similar player. If his value has cratered and you can get him for guys outside our top 15-20 then cool, but I don't see them settling for that low of an offer. It was also considered a fleece because Giolito was a big name in the industry. Eaton was also criminally underrated in the media.

Brewers Acquire Christian Yelich & sign Lorenzo Cain
QUOTE (BrianAnderson @ Jan 19, 2018 -> 08:40 PM) Mark my words the Sox will make a relatively nice move in the next 2-3 weeks. One we weren't necessarily expecting. Could it be Yelich? I personally hope so. But the Sox are going to add. Hahn said in an interview a few days ago that the team as constructed currently won't be the team reporting to camp in a few weeks. He's got something cooking still. Sign me up for Yelich. Where did Hahn say this

Hansen, Cease, and Rutherford has been my proposed package all along and matches what they are supposedly asking for. Other teams like Braves could beat that though.

Jose Abreu settles with Sox for $13 million
QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Jan 12, 2018 -> 07:12 PM) Sources: #WhiteSox, Jose Abreu settle at $13 million, avoiding arbitration. https://twitter.com/RobertMurrayFRS/status/...876378747645953 That seems very low. Makes me think an extension is in the works.

White Sox acquire Joakim Soria, Luis Avilan and $3 Million
QUOTE (Jake @ Jan 5, 2018 -> 01:09 AM) I don't get the pessimism with Soria. He's had one bad year ever and that year was hardly a total s***show by White Sox standards. We're going to get something much nicer than Jake Peter in return for him at the deadline. Yeah KC fans hate Soria but think they should get the world for Herrera who was awful last year

White Sox acquire Joakim Soria, Luis Avilan and $3 Million
QUOTE (greg775 @ Jan 5, 2018 -> 01:45 AM) Soria is a horrific baseball pitcher, but he won't be with the Sox when they contend so no biggie. It will be annoying to see him pitch next season, however, on the South Side. Royals fans are dancing in the streets getting rid of Soria. Significantly better than Kelvin Herrera last year

Great trade for Dodgers. Alexander will thrive there. Reminds me of a younger Britton.

White Sox acquire Joakim Soria, Luis Avilan and $3 Million
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 5, 2018 -> 12:22 AM) Well, to be fair, now LA isn't obligated to roster him, which with the way they use roster spots is slightly bigger deal. For sure, just meant I doubt Sox view losing him as a critical loss
