It'll be interesting to see ptatc weigh in with his knowledge banana bombs

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 03:31 PM) I hate the banner . Bunch of superstitious poop youz guys are crapping Seriously ! Perhaps there is a filter that's IP board provides that mods could set that 4 letter word to display as ****. Toilet problems would then be solved and trades could still be broke citing the correct source. Wetbutt23 for life. ( maybe that could be turned into a banner of homage ).

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 03:28 PM) Not when you have that big ol' Tank for Beer watchamacallit ! Please don't invite conversations to meander into the realm of candy bar aficionados... as this thread is about THE trade... and distractions from serious baseball discussion here are not appreciated. Kudos are looked down upon and are not tolerated. That said, looking forward to watching Eloy tonight... you?

QUOTE (Greg Hibbard @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 03:24 PM) Post Highly valuable addition. I commend your great effort and wish you well in all endeavors as your path to greatness unfolds.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 03:10 PM) Passan was on the Score and thought Dodgers would go after Britton, Doolittle and a righty. Made it sound like they want to add three relievers. Damn. They'd be scary good but I really think they need a SP.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 03:22 PM) Can I ask a favor to please leave Beer off these lists. You are confusing the novices and it just looks odd him being among players we already have. If you just squint your eyes, it magically goes away.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 03:14 PM) I will be a big Cubs fan when Q faces the Pirates +1

QUOTE (steveno89 @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 02:46 PM) Don't even get me started on the potential of blowing our wad on a big time free agent. I don't know if I could handle our roster adding a Machado or Harper. C - Collins 1B - Sheets/Beer 2B - Moncada SS - Anderson 3B - Burger/Machado RF - Garcia/Harper CF - Robert LF - Jimenez DH - Sheets/Beer/Burger Holy F*ck If we land Harper, I hope wetbutt24 breaks that news.

QUOTE (steveno89 @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 02:39 PM) Are we drinking the 2020 coolaid yet? C- Collins 1B - Sheets/Beer 2B - Moncada SS - Anderson 3B - Burger RF - Garcia CF - Robert LF - Jimenez DH - Sheets/Beer Bench - Basabe/Adolfo Kopech/Giolito/Lopez/Hansen/Cease/Dunning/Adams/Guerrero/Stephens/Flores Burdi/Fulmer Drinking the Coolaid by the gallon Absolutely. Anyone who doesn't pan out can be supplemented by FA signings, since we'll have about 80mm+ to spend year over year.

Mayo says burger, sheets, and skoug will all be top 100 on new list

QUOTE (longshot7 @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 12:59 PM) Who's Beer again? The next Bryce Harper according to some - a college kid who won't hit in the bigs according to others

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 12:29 PM) Yes http://www.fangraphs.com/coolstandings.aspx ??

QUOTE (Tony @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 12:32 PM) I have 100% enjoyed this season more than 2015 and 2016. No doubt. Like a chocolate lava slide poured over a 5 high banana split eaten on a hot triple digit mid summer day.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 12:12 PM) After the trade Fangraphs upgraded our ROS projections. We dropped from .380 to .362, 50 points behind the Padres who are the next projected worse team at .410. So that has us with what... the number 2 slot?

QUOTE (steveno89 @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 12:16 PM) Do you have any insight into what other packages were offered? When did it become apparent that the Cubs had taken the lead? I imagine it became apparent on Tuesday based on the smoke that was circling then.

QUOTE (steveno89 @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 12:15 PM) MLB.com needs to update the prospect list so we can all sit back and admire It's updated

QUOTE (steveno89 @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 11:38 AM) How nice is it to see our farm system now???? My guess is the rankings will look like: 1) Moncada 2) Jimenez 3) Kopech 4) Giolito 5) Robert 6) Lopez 7) Collins 8) Cease 9) Hansen 10) Dunning 11) Burger 12) Adams 13) Fulmer 14) Burdi 15) Guerrero 16) Sheets 17) Stephens 18) Basabe 19) Flores 20) Adolfo Maybe flip Giolito and Robert but who gives a banana split... this is an amazing top 20 that will only improve in the next 2+ weeks.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 11:29 AM) Also Joe Borchard, the highest signing bonus of all time (at the time). Because he was traded for Matt Thornton, who was traded for Brandon Jacobs, who was included in the Eaton deal. Thank you for this valuable contribution which completes the 6 degrees of Rick Hahn separation overview. Also, garlic stuffed olives are good.

QUOTE (steveno89 @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 10:01 AM) Moncada Kopech Basabe Diaz Giolito Lopez Dunning Jimenez Cease Rose Flete Can you believe that we turned a minor league free agent, a number 13 overall draft pick many thought had a ceiling of high leverage reliver, and a 30th round 2006 draft pick into all of that? Holy rebuild batman. I can't wait to see what other trades come... what we end up with out of the 2018 draft... what we end up with out of the 2019 draft... and what we end up out of the 2019 FA class. 2020, holy s*** - here we come!

Hahn said December deals got to the 5 yard line with Q but this one trumps them all Hayes reporting

Well, we had the domino and it fell :wow:

If anyone here knows of a way for us out of state to hear the radio interviews that took place on archived form, please do share

This is so exciting - let the levy break wide open now!!

Pretty cool that we turned a minor league FA signing into this. Wow. Worth the wait.
