QUOTE (bmags @ Jun 13, 2017 -> 08:59 AM) That said I'm very jealous that Cleveland got Quentin Holmes. Could not agree more!

I would love Beck. Sox are too attached to Kendall. Kendall is the pick.

Tribune quotes Hostetler as saying that he has a list of six players and only one is a pitcher.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jun 10, 2017 -> 07:35 AM) What? They want Engel to get everyday at-bats and he wasn't going to get those with Luery playing well in front of him. Agreed, he will be back. He was better than May and his speed off the bench will be a great tool for the rebuild.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 27, 2017 -> 09:25 PM) Burdi's implosion all started with May's mediocre defense. A few cheap hits followed. Agreed, May should have caught the first ball that was hit his way by the hitter leading off that inning and then May totally missed the cutoff man or he would have been out at 3rd. Changed whole tenor of the inning.

Engel is supposed to be a pretty good defender right?

QUOTE (daggins @ May 7, 2017 -> 08:01 PM) It's Bruce Levine. 'nuff said. Fair enough.

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Apr 15, 2017 -> 02:07 AM) Every name except the Rangers OF are in each team's top 10 current prospects, but none of them are top 50 prospects or so in baseball (since you quoted before my Cardinals addition). Yes, definitely less than Chapman or Miller got, but Robertson is also not even close to their levels. Yeah, he's lights out now, but no one is going to trade for him under the assumption he will be unhittable. Just trying to be realistic about a guy we all thought needed to be attached to a large chunk of cash to trade this offseason prior to his what, 4 appearances this year? I thought this thread would be blowing up today with the Bruce Levine report that a trade is likely with Nationals? Thoughts?

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Apr 7, 2017 -> 08:52 PM) Nicky Delmonico is a f***ing beast. How did he not make the big club over Asche?

I want Burdi in the minors to start year to protect service time.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Mar 22, 2017 -> 02:46 PM) They can announce him as OD starter and still trade him. Of course and I get that; however, there has been a reticence to name him when he is clearly healthy and the man for the job.

It is interesting and not inconsequential that Q has not been officially named Opening Day starter.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Mar 21, 2017 -> 10:28 PM) My favorite part is easily the back fields. Agree, 1000%. The actual games are ok, but watching the practices on the back fields in the morning is awesome. You can watch four teams of prospects at one time. I watched the likely AAA, AA, A, and a Rookie team scrimmage for three hours with maybe 6-10 other people. You can stand so close to pitchers warming up that you see the ball really move.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Mar 9, 2017 -> 01:24 PM) Legit that we have scouts there? Yes. Why? Because why wouldn't they? They likely have scouts at every game. It doesn't mean anything is imminent. I get your point; however, the article does seem to imply that there is an undercurrent of serious trade talks. Let's see where this goes. Lots of pitching injuries for teams this spring.

Do you/we think this is legit or are we getting teased again? I have wanted Hahn to trade with Yankees all along.

QUOTE (fathom @ Feb 17, 2017 -> 03:34 PM) Hahn confirmed on Garfien podcast they were close during offseason to a trade on par with Sale/Eaton Ok, I'm addicted to White Sox trade rumors and these threads. I admit it and hope to recover. Now, all of this Hahn talk about two trades that fell apart is killing me for the details.

Wow, almost 24 hours without a post in this thread! We must all be hungover. Have a great day!

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Feb 7, 2017 -> 07:46 PM) I'm still hoping the Yankees enter the picture for Q again. A package led by Frazier and Rutherford would be pretty exciting. Could not agree more. I'm holding out hope for Cashman to pull the trigger with Hahn.

QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Jan 15, 2017 -> 05:59 PM) Was posted on the page before My bad!

News? http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2017/01/quic...p;post-id=82848

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.

I am not enamored with the Astros prospects. My hope is that Hahn holds out for one of the Yankees elite prospects.

QUOTE (peavy44 @ Dec 27, 2016 -> 08:34 PM) I'm starting to wonder if this is rebuild or not or they just wanna trade the adam laroche whiny babies. In my mind this is absolutely a legit theory but we cannot argue with the excitement of the return.

QUOTE (Moncada @ Dec 23, 2016 -> 10:25 AM) We need potential elite hitter not more pitchers. Agreed

Hahn received some nice players but was hoping for more due to the fact that Sale is signed for three seasons.
