QUOTE (Dunt @ Dec 21, 2016 -> 12:36 PM) I could see something more along the lines of: Mets get - McCutchen, Jones Pirates get - Q, Conforto Sox get - Meadows, Bell, Newman, Gsellman, Dunn/Plawecki How are the Pirates trading McCutchen and Meadows?

QUOTE (peppers312 @ Dec 21, 2016 -> 12:31 PM) is it at all possible that a sub-par White Sox team affects Quintana's value if he goes into the season as the #1? i mean what if the wheels come off because of a crappy team surrounding him and he has a bad year...? Then he'd likely have another 24 no decision season or something like it and still have a metric s*** ton of value.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Dec 21, 2016 -> 11:21 AM) I think you'll keep hearing it until he actually leads a rotation. Not that I agree but until he shows it. It's just not common for a guy to be an MiLB FA and perform the way he has. He has never had the hype in his career. True that, hommie. One more reason to keep rooting for Q, with or without the Sox. Happy holidays, by the way.

QUOTE (bmags @ Dec 21, 2016 -> 11:19 AM) Much better outcome than the rumor being shot down right away (as with Yankees) With all respect, that could have just been a negotiation tactic - my guess is the Yankees have been in more serious discussions than they've recently let on.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Dec 14, 2016 -> 02:07 PM) Amazing he lasted as long as he did. Dude just looks like a barista. Hysterical.

I'm so tired of hearing that Quintana is a number 2. All the MLBN pundants were spewing that crap just now.

True or false: he who signs Encarnacion, trades for Q

QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ Dec 21, 2016 -> 10:08 AM) This has been one heckuva fascinating offseason, what with getting so intimately familiar with the farm systems of Boston, Houston, Texas, Atlanta, Washington, Dodgers, Yankees, Colorado, and now Pittsburgh. Did I miss anyone!! +1

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Dec 21, 2016 -> 06:21 AM) Don Cooper calling into MLBN Hot Stove this morning to talk about the new pitchers the Sox have got. Damn it... I missed it.

Well... it's Wednesday.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Dec 20, 2016 -> 06:06 PM) But why would the Yankees trade Frazier when they need him in 2017? Also, if Benintendi was "untouchable," it's hard to imagine turning down him and Kopech for Q (and NOT getting him for Sale)...that doesn't make any sense, because that makes it seem as if the entire deal hinged on Basabe being included as the 3rd piece AND the choice between Benintendi vs. Moncada (ceiling/floor). Rumored Beni deal was at the deadline

BOOOOORRING!

The twitter ping pong conflicting reports game is at level 3. Goooooood.

QUOTE (ozzfest @ Dec 20, 2016 -> 08:46 AM) I'm starting to think this rebuild is BS. They are just trading the guys that KW didn't get along with (Sale and Eaton) and Robertson (i dont believe Robertson had an issue w management, but i still think they will trade him). This is classic Reinsdorf. Nothing new. More of the same. They aren't going to trade Quintana, Frazier, Melky, Abreu etc... They are branding this as a rebuild so that fans get sucked in. But this is not a change in organizational philosophy. This is just Reinsdorf allowing his life tenured executive(s) to get rid of players they don't get along with. Poop. Yawn. Wipe.

I've been yearning for Q to the Yankees. Fraizer, Torres, and Ruth - that'd make me poop.

They got something for him? Wow

QUOTE (FLsouthsider @ Dec 19, 2016 -> 05:04 PM) I just like the idea of raiding a team's farm system in exchange for a guy that they cut five years ago. Yup Regardless, I hope hahn is telling teams that the price goes UP if he's traded in July.

QUOTE (steveno89 @ Dec 19, 2016 -> 11:27 AM) You start your request by asking for Torres, Frazier, Sheffield and Andujar Torres + Frazier is not crazy considering three seasons of Sale got the White Sox Moncada + Kopech as a centerpiece This

Is it Wednesday yet?
