Honest question: what excites you about those 2?
Projectable prep SS/3B prospect with solid tools across the board and great makeup. Dunning is a polished higher floor college pitcher that could slot in as a middle of the rotation arm in the not so distant future. They are solid depth pieces in a potential trade.

An exec from another team that has pursued Sale believes it is 80/20 that deal gets done that sends LH ace to #Nationals

If White Sox do trade Sale to Nats, not as slam dunk as you might think whether the ask should be Giolito over Reynaldo Lopez.

In no Turner, I think they need one of Lopez/Fedde, and then 2 more prospects to make that deal fair
Kieboom and Dunning please.

Sources: Legitimate chance of Sale trade to #Nationals. Robles, Giolito would go to #WhiteSox. Teams haggling over final pieces in deal.
Oh snap.
Now let's have Boston and Houston jump in. Go Hahn go.

Josh is a nice and smart guy, I think he's getting a little impatient as most of us are though.
Yup. Josh is a good fellow.

Sources: #Nationals more focused on Sale than Cutch. #WhiteSox likely would get Robles, Giolito, much more. No indication deal is close.
Yes please.
I might be the only one, but Robles. Truly believe he's going to be a stud. Those tools, premium position. He could be the top prospect in baseball in short order.
JJ Cooper @jjcoop36
Hmm, Lopez/Robles/Giolito/Fedde/Kieboom/Dunning/Neuse/Stevenson...Still hard to see how they could do both, but Nats are creative.
Bob Nightengale @BNightengale
The #Nats are actually trying to trade for Chris Sale AND Andrew McCutchen and believe they have the prospects to pull off both trades.
Wat. How.

hear pirates want top OF prospect robles plus a top young SP (giolito, lopez, ross presumably would fit) in Cutch package
And for the love of god, can we spell McCutchen's name correctly in this thread title?
