Have at it... every day leading up to pitchers and catchers reporting, I'm gonna try making a new thread for all projected 25 man roster spots.

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Jan 14, 2017 -> 09:57 PM) How does this thread get 10 pages a day when NOTHING is happening? Poop. Duh.

f*** this.

QUOTE (miracleon35th @ Jan 13, 2017 -> 09:06 PM) IMO, Hahn gets his man, Austin Meadows, or Hahn walks and Q is our Ace until July when the "market" for a top of the rotation pitcher by contending clubs will present a better environment for a trade. But Quintana's value will be lower then - haven't you read the 1,800 posts proclaiming so?

QUOTE (Springfield SoxFan @ Jan 13, 2017 -> 05:19 PM) We all need something to happen or we are going to fall off the ledge. Rumors and lack of news are driving us crazy. Stay strong Hahn and hold out for right deal. I want the one premium prospect and hope the Yankees ultimately land Q. Stay safe if you are affected by this ice storm. Crazy? No way man. Not a chance. ( ya pompous arse )

He gets 1 hit all season... but it's a good one.

He's gonna channel the Adam's. .184 / .322 / .495 42 HR 96 RBI ( not )

My brain is leaking out of my eye balls and my ears are bleeding with hot stove boredom.

Have at it

It's Wednesday?

QUOTE (knightni @ Jan 10, 2017 -> 07:00 PM) I highly doubt that Moncada stays at 2b. Porque?

QUOTE (NCsoxfan @ Jan 10, 2017 -> 11:50 AM) They then go on to give some sample trades they think would make sense from the Astros, Pirates, and Yankees http://www.espn.com/blog/the-gms-office/in...r/post?id=13713 For us without insider access -- could you paste the sample trades here, por favor?

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Jan 10, 2017 -> 10:35 AM) Man you guys are like sharks smelling blood lol. It was just an idea. I will say this, wouldn't be surprised if Hahn is asking for more than Sale for Q

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Jan 10, 2017 -> 10:25 AM) That would give them a rotation of Cole Quintana Nova Glasnow Taillon. If I were Hahn, I would just continue to text that to him every few hours lol +1

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Jan 10, 2017 -> 10:26 AM) Give me Meadows, Newman, Keller, and Diaz. Meadows Newman > Kopech Keller > Basabe Diaz > Diaz I think that's a unfair outline. Fixed.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jan 10, 2017 -> 09:30 AM) Baseball AmericaVerified account ‏@BaseballAmerica The @astros are reluctant to part with Francis Martes, knowing the righty could debut in 2017, @jakemkaplan writes. http://bba.am/Cmgzxy Houston can go f*** off Peter Gammons reported last week they offered him in the Archer proposal - I trust that more than this. Chalk it up to posturing.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 09:03 PM) Or you can go with the Sale/Eaton/Duke conspiracy theories. I should have reserved my final monthly usage of "poop" for this quote - but alas, the quota is now used up.

Poop.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jan 8, 2017 -> 10:48 PM) p.s. Why not trade a prospect or two for Alex Gordon and sign Cespedes? Wouldn't we be favored in the Central? Because testicle... Of course.

At first I find it hard to believe the Pirates would trade Keller and Glasnow but thinking of it again - I could see it. As someone else mentioned they get to keep both Bell and Meadows while adding a ace / high end two in Q for 4 years at bargain basement pricing. Please be the week. Please.

Take your pick: Glasnow, Keller, Newman, Hayes, and Diaz Or Tucker, Martes, Paulino, Davis, and Stubbs

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Jan 8, 2017 -> 09:30 PM) I forget where I read it to be honest but it wasn't sports mockery. One rumor was Houston offered Martes, Tucker, Paulino and another said they offered the Astros top three prospects ++. Just rumors but somewhere in there is a little truth. Peter Gammons: https://www.google.com/amp/www.draysbay.com...-houston-astros

QUOTE (soxforlife05 @ Jan 7, 2017 -> 10:09 PM) If they've held out this long I have to believe they are going to get a fleecing the likes of the Eaton deal eventually. Equivalent would be ( roughly speaking in loose ass relative terms that are actually meaningless ) a teams #1, #3, and 2016 first rounder... Astros: Martes Paulino Whitley ( would have to think one of those three would be subbed out for Tucker ). Yankees: Frazier Mateo Rutherford ( my obvious choice. ) Pirates: Glasnow Bell Craig ( again, would have to think they sub out one of those top two for Meadows. ) Ya. So there. Let it be so. And f*** this speculation.

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Jan 7, 2017 -> 08:09 PM) Sox signed Evereth Cabrera to minor league deal. http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2017/01/whit...eague-deal.html Bring in all the suck.

QUOTE (Al Lopez's Ghost @ Jan 7, 2017 -> 01:29 PM) With 2017 being a tank year, Shields could be our MVP. I would love for him to be a horrifically awful pitcher for the whole season on a historic scale. It would give me something to smile and laugh about every 5 days.
