QUOTE (scs787 @ Jul 13, 2013 -> 11:57 AM) The bullpen maybe, but I don't think the rotation will need any sort of solidification next year. The rotation right now is soooo deep that they can potentially trade 2 SPs and still have enough for a competing rotation. Right now the Sox have Sale/Peavy/Danks/Q/Santiago, and they have Johnson, Axe, and Rienzo who I believe anyone of those can be a competent #5 starter with Johnson having the potential of being much more. I'm personally not fond of Axelrod outside of a long relief / spot start guy. Hope we see Johnson and Rienzo this year in September. If Peavy and Danks both go, I'll want another SP. Some prospect could fit that bill. Next year isn't about being competitive - so hell - run any kid out there who may be ready. Evaluate, adapt, evaluate, adapt...

QUOTE (scs787 @ Jul 12, 2013 -> 11:20 PM) (To make it clear I'm saying with the addition of 2 impact bats they can do all this). Bullpens gonna need a lot of work and the rotation will need some solidification as well. The rest of this year and the next two to come will be interesting.

QUOTE (Paulstar @ Jul 13, 2013 -> 12:05 AM) Brandon Jacobs, Jared Mitchell, Tryace Thompson, Keynan Walker, and Courtney Hawkins... Claiming to know all of these prospects to bust is unreasonable. Two of them are in their first full year, one in his second, and the other two have had injury based setbacks. Sorry Paulstar - but your post was very biased in my opinion. At least we both agree the hope is for your sentiment to be off the mark. Cheers to that.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ May 10, 2013 -> 07:52 AM) And now the thread is complete I haven't posted all year. You move to paradise and believe it or not - things get real busy. Seriously thou... if ever a classic "poop" reply was necessary... this thread calls for it. poop.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jan 30, 2013 -> 11:09 PM) If everything goes well and that's really well Sox could be 40 above .500 .Imagine Sale 20-7 , Peavy 18-9 , Floyd 16 -8 , Danks 15-9, Fifth Starters 15- 11 Viciedo .280 35 HR 95 RBI, PK, .290 30, 100 , Dunn .240, 40, 100 , Beckham breaks out, Alexei out producing his rookie year, Keppinger .300 10, 70 , DeAza .295, 10, 60 Rios .310 25 95. I'll dream along with ya. April please. Also, I moved to Kauai - will have to back out of the Cali Crew and start my own one man fan club here. LOL

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 25, 2013 -> 08:17 PM) Probably no more hitters to be added to the '13 line up. http://www.csnchicago.com/baseball-chicago...mp;feedID=10338 Kinda conflicts what was just posted in this thread about 3rd base... I'm guessing their using the media as a negioating tool. We'll s thou- I'm wrong often when it comes to speculation.

Whoa - there's like news and stuff...

QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Jan 17, 2013 -> 01:05 PM) Pretty impressive for a 2nd year starter to make that list. Damned straight

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jan 14, 2013 -> 05:10 PM) This thread should be drug out into the street and shot. Then possibly incinerated. I approve of this message. You've gotta admit thou - this offseason has been the least active in a long long time.

QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ Dec 23, 2012 -> 07:15 PM) I expect multiple roster changes still. Um... Yea.

I can't imagine what we'd have to give up in addition to Ramirez for Upton. Ramirez, Thornton, Floyd, & Mitchell? Trade Floyd for prospects and include them with Ramirez and Thornton? Sure seems like we'll see some action soon. w00t w00t

Gotta love em - gonna miss him Now... Flowers... Please break the f*** out like an uncaged beast

The likely hood of a trade for a position player who hits LH just went way up imo

I'd love to get Trumbo somehow and then trade Rios or Tank. I could totally get off keeping Tank if we had Trumbo.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Dec 11, 2012 -> 06:53 PM) Stubbs and Bauer for Choo. That's an awesome haul for a guy they weren't going to re-sign after this year. Unreal. I wanted Bauer. Nice trade for the Indians.

QUOTE (The Ultimate Champion @ Dec 10, 2012 -> 07:46 PM) Sounds like Jason Kubel IMO If Dayan and DeAza are on the table (especially in deals for prospects) then we have enough to get him, and he'd make sense in LF. Otherwise, if it's the "wanted for 5 years guy" I will guess Markakis. I looked at his contract & he's due $15M for 2013-14 with a $17M club option or $2M buyout. If the O's are thinking about moving him I bet the Sox are in on it. Kubel and Bauer = I like.

QUOTE (The Ultimate Champion @ Dec 10, 2012 -> 09:14 AM) Another Sox example of this was KW dumping Carlos Lee for Pods & Vizcaino. Ignorance. That trade also freed up finances to sign AJ AND Iguchi. If Carlos Lee was on the Sox in 2005 - we'd still be World Seriesless.

Give me Upton and Trevor Bauer and I'll poop my pants.

It opens up the door to trade rios or de aza. This line up looks juicy... 3B - Kipp RF - Rios CF - Hamelton 1B - Konerko DH - Dunn SS - Rameriz LF - Tank C - Flowers 2B - Bacon Get rid of Floyd, Thornton, De Aza, and open up the purse strings. Give me McCarthy in this pipe dream too.
