QUOTE (Stan Bahnsen @ Jan 6, 2014 -> 04:08 PM) Likely have him pegged as a reliever due to funky motion. He WILL prove them wrong. Nope. Read the chat.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Dec 16, 2013 -> 04:57 PM) Keith Law loving a White Sox trade? *gasp He also really liked the Adam Eaton trade. Despite what this board thinks, Keith Law does not have a vendetta against the White Sox.

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 16, 2013 -> 01:12 PM) Reed's stuff is nothing special, and there's no need for a closer when you're in rebuilding mode. Reed's stuff is fine. Agreed about the second part though. Love the trade.

Love it. Relievers are largely fungible and the White Sox are pretty good at churning them out. Turning one into a potential everyday 3B position player is quite fine with me.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Dec 12, 2013 -> 12:24 PM) Could not agree more. Let it ride this year, see where you are at developmentally on all of these players. Right now, I'm hopeful for about 75-80 wins while getting extended looks at Semien, Sanchez, and L. Garcia. I think 80 is a bit much, but definitely agree.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Dec 10, 2013 -> 10:09 PM) Ptatc is one cool customer. I would've went off on that clown. Word. The only place I see that dude post is in threads about ticket deals. I figured he's some desperate White Sox ticket broker.

Bruce Levine ‏@MLBBruceLevine 17m White Sox determined to get catcher at these meetings .

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 10, 2013 -> 07:19 PM) So people really think Santiago should have netted more than an mlb starting cfer and lead off man that is cost controlled for many years? Jeez. I think it's a suitable return. Some Soxtalk members severely overrate Hector.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 10, 2013 -> 01:31 PM) Vet MI, and an OF bat was always the course. Dealing SP to acquire was definitely something that was going to happen. I dont see them modifying the pen much if at all. Nothing on C or 3B?

I really hope Davidson is involved somehow as well. I'm okay with no Kendrick.

Me likey.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Dec 9, 2013 -> 05:01 PM) Anyone getting the assumption that if Sox do somehow deal Danks that Hahn will go hard after Tanaka? Nope. Not even a little bit.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 9, 2013 -> 02:18 PM) Not. Gonna. Happen. Aww. I like trade rumors.

Please continue Sale talk in the Sale trade thread.

QUOTE (The Ultimate Champion @ Dec 9, 2013 -> 09:32 AM) Jesus Christ let's put this to rest, Sale doesn't need to go anywhere but out to the mound on Opening Day wearing a Sox uniform. There will be no rest so long as there are rumors.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Dec 9, 2013 -> 09:31 AM) They actually have prospects at positions that make the most sense, but this can't be what Hahn would consider to be a fair trade. He has to feel he won by a wide margin. The Dbacks are one of the few teams I feel could meet a Sale asking price.

Garfien: When Rick Hahn arrives here at MLB Winter Meetings, it sounds like GMs will want to talk with him about Chris Sale.

QUOTE (Baron @ Dec 9, 2013 -> 07:03 AM) Oh look Jon Morosi pushing another Chris Sale trade rumor article http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/chicago...santiago-120813 Rosenthal: Asked GM about Sale this morning. Said, "Think teams are pushing Chicago to consider." @jonmorosi said #WhiteSox will listen.

Stop-gappish trade chip signing?

David Vassegh ‏@THEREAL_DV 9m The White Sox are trying to sign Juan Uribe. #dodgers #whitesox Details

QUOTE (scs787 @ Dec 8, 2013 -> 09:34 PM) I would rather work out some kind of 3 way deal with the Dodgers to get Joc Pederson in here in any kind of Sale deal. A left handed middle of the lineup bat that can hang in CF? Sign me up. Putting my GM cap on.... Sox Get Pederson-Julio Urias-Matt MaGill-Paco Rodriguez-Matt Davidson Dbacks get- Matt Kemp-Corey Seager Dodgers get-Sale-Owings Something like that, I just want an impact LH bat to start if I'm trading Sale. Sox have a few guys who could end up being impact RH bats (Abreu, Garcia, Viciedo, Davidson((in this trade)), but nothing on the other side of the football. Super underwhelming return. Any Dodgers deal would start with Pederson Seager and Lee.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Dec 8, 2013 -> 09:00 PM) Trading Quintana for Headley would be a horrible move IMO, even if he agreed to an extension since you're probably talking about at least 5 years at $15M per season. If you trade Quintana, it's got to be for a young, cost-controlled bat, someone like Castro, where you retain most of your surplus value while filling a major need. Glad to see that Hahn agrees with that logic. I'd still love to get Headley, but the price would have to come down quite a bit for a deal to make sense for us. Jason Castro has 3 years of control left. I'm not 100% sold on him. We'd be buying high. I'd much rather go after Grandal if he's available. I think he's a better overall player and has 5 years of control left.

A Rock/Bucket appearance would be nice right about now.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Dec 8, 2013 -> 08:31 PM) http://www.csnchicago.com/white-sox/white-...ley-if-they-pay Dan Hayes mentions the White Sox longstanding interest in Chase Headley. San Diego wants Quintana in return. What does everyone think? Quintana is a very important part of the White Sox future but I could get Chase Headley with an extension along with Yasmani Grandal, I think I could part with Quintana and a young reliever. Any thoughts guys? Headley plus an extension along with Grandal would cost more than Quintana. I'd be ecstatic to acquire both of them, but more pieces would have to go to San Diego. It would lock down 3B and C for the foreseeable future.
