What do you got @Harold's Leg Lift?

I loved him at draft. Mainly because of the aesthetic. I think White Sox fans would adore him. Big Pedroia vibes.

I wonder if acquiring Jett Williams could fill the Madrigal sized hole in @poppysox's heart.

Really? Not going to pretend I know much about trade valuations, but I think Jett Williams, Drew Gilbert, and Colin Houck could be a fantastic package.

A snip for those without an Athletic sub. https://theathletic.com/5180684/2024/01/05/dylan-cease-trade-market/

Jett Williams and Houck please. I still wonder about makeup with Jett. Dude looked like an absolute scumbag at draft time. Looks can be deceiving though?

Harry Ford, Cole Young, and Colt Emerson are all interesting. Not much pitching in sight in that system though.

Interesting that James mentioned the Mariners.

Indeed. Saw them play the Bulls many times the past 2 seasons.

So I'm moving to Norfolk in March. Am I close enough to be an Orioles fan next season? Lord knows the White Sox will be unwatchable unless I'm in a self hating mood.

My unfortunate Iowa Fandom would be very okay with that.

Is he the guy with the laugh?

I think I agree with Bmags though. I bet Soxtalk would hate a package like the one we are talking through. It lacks that immediate position player headliner. But in Hampton you get a not too far off mid rotation type, then two up the middle infielders who are far away but high upside. One of them super tooled up in Arias who has star potential. Then give me Lalane if possible. I understand why the risk averse would prefer a different player mix, but I would be excited about the depth added to the farm and the upside.

I'd be stoked for a return like that. If I could swap out Beeter for Lalane I'd be over the moon. The Yankees farm is deep. I think they match up with the Sox very well.

I would really love to acquire Arias in a Yankees deal. Really into Lombard too.

You mean the bonus board? It's just a blurb on Herrera.

Konnor Griffin sure seems to slot into that new philosophy. Here's hoping. Dude sounds like a toolbox.

Yea. I like our posters for the most part, but some of them are being petulant meatballs. You should see them in gamethreads. ?

Boston/NY/Baltimore seem like some pretty good suitors to me.

Yankees/Boston bidding war would be fantastic. Orioles you want in?

The hell.

I just realized how little homie has pitched the last two seasons.
