Ben Badler ‏@BenBadler 1m I like the Montas addition as an add-on for the White Sox. Not sure if he's a starter but the guy has freakish arm strength and misses bats. Expand

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:58 PM) 20 years old in A ball/ 5.70 ERA/ 96K/32BB in 85.1 IP Those peripherals aren't bad actually.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:45 PM) I like it. Nice tools and he has some offensive upside...none of it has really shown up as of yet though. Yep. I'm okay with him as well. I want Manuel Margot too.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:42 PM) mini-Miggy! Noooooooooo. Don't start.

QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:39 PM) Stop making sense! Sweeeeet.

Expand Reply Retweet Favorite More Ben Badler ‏@BenBadler 1m Cleuluis Rondon: Really smooth defensive shortstop. As for his bat, well . . . he's a really good defensive shortstop. Expand

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:35 PM) lol, Garcia should wear 34 so that people will already own his jersey That would be pretty great.

QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:34 PM) I'm curious to see this 240 lbs running around like a gazelle. Plus defense? Can that be mostly from arm strength? He can kind of fake it in CF currently, but he's destined for a corner.

My fear is that Avisail Garcia is the next Dayan Viciedo with some defensive value.

I guess I can hope for Margot?

QUOTE (southside hitman @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:29 PM) Correction:Wendell Rijo is NOT in the deal GOD DAMNIT Bah.

Oooh. I really like Rijo.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:24 PM) I just want Ranuado badly Already reported that he's not in the deal.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:23 PM) I do not like Avisail Garcia. Just want to say that. He can prove me wrong, but everything about him seems like classic value driving. Never put up good numbers in the minors over an extended period of time. You and me both. Crossing my fingers the rest of the players involved are of worth.

Nick Cafardo ‏@nickcafardo 26s From what I've been able to piece together three other Red Sox minor leaguers and Iglesias are in the deal. Villareal, a Tiger RH to Boston. Expand

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:22 PM) It should set up well for tomorrow. Fingers crossed.

Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal 8s And likely more involved. RT @jonmorosi: Source confirms A Garcia to White Sox, J Iglesias to Detroit. Expand

QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:13 PM) You guys should really slow your roll and wait until the deadline passes... I hope that means we fortify the farm a bit via Rios/Alexei/Insert Name Here.

Ben Badler ‏@BenBadler 32s Garcia has big raw power, more about swing plane, approach RT @Nick_900 What about his bat though? Not a lot of power for such a big frame Expand

QUOTE (daggins @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:12 PM) Edes is a Boston guy and closer the deal so I choose to believe him. "Lesser" prospects scares me.

Gordon Edes ‏@GordonEdes 26s No Ranaudo//RT @trevorj6: @GordonEdes does this also rule out Renaudo? Expand

Gordon Edes ‏@GordonEdes 28s Iglesias to Tigers, 2 or 3 lesser prospects to White Sox, Det OF Avisal Garcia to White Sox, pitcher from Det also coming to Boston Expand

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:07 PM) Bernie Pleskoff ‏@BerniePleskoff 52s It appears that's the entire deal: Peavy to #RedSox, Garcia to #WhiteSox and #Iglesias to #Tigers. Imagine Peavy in #RedSox rotation. Solid. Ugh. Really?

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:06 PM) Rios + Cash to Pirates for top prospect. Alexei to Cards for Carlos Martinez. Let's call it a trading deadline. Yes please.

I'll be much more okay with Garcia if I don't see Miggy comps around here. He merely LOOKS like him.
