QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 14, 2017 -> 11:18 PM) I'm thinking Moncada is called up and Sanchez/Saladino get some time at 3b That definitely could be too.

Maybe Davidson goes full time 3rd and Delmonico becomes the full time dh? Just throwing s*** out there.

Ryan McGuffey‏ @RyanMcGuffey 8m8 minutes ago More If the #WhiteSox can get the 14th best prospect from #RedSox for Frazier, makes a lot of sense. Frazier..GREAT guy, but perfect for winner

Got a whole year to recover during a season we're not trying to compete. It sucks but TJ isn't the worst thing in the world. Just get healthy and come back ready for 2019.

QUOTE (soxforlife05 @ Jul 14, 2017 -> 02:28 AM) Not enough for gift wrapping the Cubs another World Series. Would have liked to see another top prospect rather than 3 fillers. Quality over quantity. Disappointed with the return. Would have rather kept Q until we saw what we have with the newest additions at the big league level before accepting this kind of return. I'm much more disappointed with this one than the returns for Sale or Eaton. Was thrilled with the Eaton return and mildly disappointed we couldn't pull Devers for Sale but thought his deal was just ok. Especially if you are giving him to the Cubs you've got to get a better deal than this. This is what hating the Cubs more than loving the White Sox looks like.

QUOTE (2005thxfrthmmrs @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 10:56 PM) Traded for $3.5M cash. This is a much better joke than mine.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 10:04 PM) Anyone know why Moncada got pulled in the 9th inning and Bueno had to finish his at bat? Traded for Quintana.

Moncada Kopech Eloy Robert Cease Gio Lopez Dunning Basabe Diaz Rose Flete For me.

And Charlie Tilson guys!!!!!!!

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 08:47 PM) Not out of the question the best SS in the org is Leury (remember him before he vanished?) Hey I mentioned him somewhere in this thread!

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 08:43 PM) I think he'll be fine too. But if there's a position I'm fine hoarding it's SS. That's fair. Shortstop is shortstop, can always move those guys around.

I'll believe Anderson is a quality major league shortstop until he sucks next season. Dude is going to be fine imo.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 08:30 PM) I think we have more redundancy than that. They aren't as high profile yet but your Adolfo's / Skougs area other level and possible leaps from Gonzalez / Call / Fisher / Booker and you also have guys like Josue Guerrero. Right. And took out Anderson and didn't include Leury or Yolmer or Davidson and didn't include any of the 8 billion dollars we'll have to fill holes. Nobody knows what the future holds but there's plenty of offensive capability in this organization now.

Avi's going to have to show something the next few weeks until the deadline. With his history and the way his numbers were plummeting before the break, I don't think anyone is trading a top or even good prospect for him at the moment.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 08:07 PM) My experience was the exact opposite Ya, the consensus on this one is definitely that the Sox won it. Much like the Eaton deal, I love it from the Sox perspective but the team trading for our guy is getting a severely underrated player and asset on the national level.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 07:54 PM) Time to get moncada up. He has nothing much to gain against AAA hitting IMO. Not having a crazy year slash wise only solid, but he should start getting MLB seasoning IMO. Just to keep him hungry and to be around other pros in the Show. I'm positive if he didn't get hurt that slash line is a ton better but oh well. I agree, I don't think spending time in aaa does anything for him at this point.

There's plenty of bats(albeit a lot at the lower levels) in the system now. Add to that the emergence of a guy or two or three in the majors that have proven they can maybe be every day players and there's plenty of offensive capability to make this thing work.

Barcelo broke too cause he was freakin electric at one point as well.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 06:20 PM) Some boring leadoff hitter on Charlotte singled Dude is yesterday's news.

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 06:10 PM) When giving up a talent and value like Jose Quintana, I would think the Sox should have gotten at least one player back that is just about MLB ready. I wish that along with Cease and Jimenez the Sox would have gotten back someone like Candelario or Happ or Schwarber. I know Jimenez is a highly rated prospect as is Cease, but being so far away from the major leagues makes them a very risky return for a proven talent like Q who is under control with such a reasonable contract. I know I'm almost alone in my opinion by the ecstatic reaction of almost everyone here to the trade. I wonder if the Seattle fans were this excited when the Mariners acquired Jeremy Reed + for Freddy Garcia, who was to become a free agent. Again, not knocking the potential of Jimenez and Cease, just would have liked at least one proven major league ready player to go along with them for a proven commodity like Quintana, one of the best and most consistent left handed starters in baseball signed to a bargain contract for several more years. First off, nothing you're saying is unreasonable. Second, I disagree completely. If we were trying to win next season I'd be a little bit more on board with what you're saying but given that the Sox aren't trying to compete next year either you just go for the best talent possible here and not worry quite as much where they're at in their development path.

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 06:11 PM) Flete single, won the trade Dickman double, Flete out at home. Ha. That didn't take long.

Nah.

Absolutely f'n loved Q and still will. Wish that dude nothing but the best and can't wait to see him come down here and beat up on the Cards.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 04:43 PM) I don't even mind someone arguing that is the case! I just cannot stand when someone waves a hand at me without ever engaging in a discussion of why they disagree. I agree. Just like anything an argument to any case is fair but there's been plenty of people(and like I said some of my favorite posters here too) that continue to think they absolutely know who is and isn't available when in reality, nobody does. It's just become a Soxtalk pet peeve of mine.

As long as Oldsox thinks we finally cracked the top 20 then I'm cool.
