QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Jan 14, 2016 -> 08:48 PM) 2 live arms in A ball. Doesn't matter. They could have moved him through waivers in August for something. They chose to play him in a lost season and let him walk anyway. It's not a big deal but it really doesn't make sense. I don't think they made the choice to move on from him until after the season. If they decided before the season ended, then shame on them for not getting Saladino more reps at SS.

QUOTE (Dunt @ Jan 14, 2016 -> 06:00 PM) I dont see why Cespedes would take a 1-2 year deal with the Mets over a 4 year deal with the Sox. That makes absolutely no sense. Maybe the Sox haven't offered that, or they're offering substantially less money/year?

QUOTE (SoCalSox @ Jan 14, 2016 -> 04:57 PM) Seems like another twitter bulls***'er trying to justify his credibility. Doubt this has any weight. This guy has been around forever. Doesn't seem to be a BS type guy

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Jan 14, 2016 -> 04:52 PM) https://twitter.com/ring786 This guy is the source for the report. Makes sense, he covers boxing and was given some information by someone in the Roc Nation boxing office

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jan 14, 2016 -> 05:48 PM) I would be shocked if he signed a 1 year deal. He has no QO attached to him. How is his market going to improve? Can't see him having a better 2016 than 2015

QUOTE (Dunt @ Jan 14, 2016 -> 05:35 PM) Did you watch the playoffs? It's too bad the Sox don't have the resources to get Granderson, as he'd be an ideal fit in RF.

QUOTE (Dunt @ Jan 14, 2016 -> 05:33 PM) Where does he play? CF

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Jan 14, 2016 -> 05:31 PM) Man they really lucked out with Cuddyer retiring. If he's not coming to the Sox, I really hope he goes to the Mets

Some rumors that Cespedes might be close to going back to the Mets http://www.nysportsday.com/2016/01/13/excl...-with-the-mets/

There's a better chance we trade for the other CarGo Jerry CrasnickVerified account ‏@jcrasnick The #Astros have inquired on #Braves CF Ender Inciarte. Presumably would have to move Carlos Gomez to make a deal work.

If the Cubs end up trading Soler to Tampa for pitching, you have to think Fowler going back to the Cubs comes into play big time.

For Illinois fans, he did the Mich St game with Calhoun last week

QUOTE (blackmooncreeping @ Jan 13, 2016 -> 03:48 AM) What about a 3 or 4 year offer with the 1st 2 years being guaranteed of $20m/$25/$25/$20 with a player opt out after the 2nd year? Does Cespedes, or Upton for that matter, sign that if offered? Would that do it, or would someone beat that offer? I think this is only type of deal that could work

QUOTE (AustinIllini @ Jan 13, 2016 -> 04:42 AM) Watch more DePaul ;-) Pretty sure DePaul wouldn't be trailing 80-42 to Nebraska

Not sure I have ever seen a worse coach than Pitino Jr

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jan 13, 2016 -> 03:25 AM) Levine mentions a pitcher and Avi for CarGo would get it done. Adams and Avi, would you do it? Absolutely, in a heartbeat

Awful article by Levine. Avi wouldn't be the main piece, it would be Q or Rodon

After Parra mentioned today how excited he is to go play with his BF cargo, it makes me think Dickerson or Blackmon will most likely be traded

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 12, 2016 -> 09:57 PM) This is not the PBP job. This the radio pre-game and post game show host. He is doing Chris Rongey's job, not Hawks. I'm aware, I was referring to the strong possibility of Swirsky taking over for Hawk

Hopefully he's a good fit here. With Hawk taking more time off, I'm not looking forward to hearing Swirsky play a game of 200 Questions every home game with Stoney

If true, you have to think Adams is used as trade bait for Cargo Brandon Moss - OF - Cardinals MLB.com's Jenifer Langosch writes that Brandon Moss "will get the first chance to entrench himself at first base" with the Cardinals.

QUOTE (Lillian @ Jan 12, 2016 -> 10:19 PM) I agree. However, wasn't Davidson really acquired to fill the hole at 3RD? If he had developed as hoped, it might have eliminated the need to trade for Frazier, but I don't think it would have changed the outfield picture much. However, to your point, Davidson is another example of a poor choice in position players. This organization is currently just not very good at identifying position players. Thank goodness for Abreu. If Davidson was decent, they wouldn't have needed to trade for Frazier and would have more resources left to upgrade at OF.

QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ Jan 12, 2016 -> 10:14 PM) We need one fully determined tool from him..by this point.. and we have zero. And it's not just that the tools aren't above average, they're mostly grading out as awful

QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Jan 12, 2016 -> 10:11 PM) Kinda funny that avi has had one full season and now he's considered a horrible bust. Well, he's performed so badly that the organization is almost definitely looking for an upgrade already.
