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.

Ben Badler ‏@BenBadler 12s Avisail Garcia weighs 240 pounds, but he's a 55 runner with a strong arm. Been used a lot in CF, some scouts think he's playable there. Expand

QUOTE (winninguglyin83 @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:01 PM) Middlebrooks was NOT pulled. Phew.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:00 PM) From May: Henry (Chicago): Thanks for the chat! What's your take on Avisail Garcia? Does he have legitimate upside with the bat? Jason Parks: He does. But to be honest, I'm not really sure what he is going to be. Clearly he has offensive tools; good bat control and a quick, efficient trigger. Despite the size/strength and fluidity of the swing [itself], I'm not sure how much over-the-fence power he will develop. I've asked around about him quite a bit and opinions are very mixed on the ceiling of the bat. But he looks like Miggy!

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:00 PM) Which might open up for better package from Pirates for Rios? I'd be very okay with that.

Gordon Edes ‏@GordonEdes 25s Three-way deal with White Sox, Tigers land Peavy for Boston, plus big-leaguer from Detroit. Iglesias To White Sox Expand

Blah. I really dislike Garcia.

Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal 13s Exec’s speculation: Peavy to BOS, Iglesias to DET (to cover for Peralta suspension) and A. Garcia to CWS. Just speculation at this time. Expand

Iglesias to Detroit?

Danny Knobler ‏@DannyKnoblerCBS 3s It appears Tigers are getting Jose Iglesias as part of White Sox-Red Sox trade Expand

JIM BOWDEN ‏@JimBowdenESPNxm 25s Waiting to see if Iglesias is going to Chw and if in turn Ramirez going to Det for protection re: Peralta sups? just guessing.... Expand

Please no Avisail. I'd much rather have Middlebrooks.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 09:43 PM) I wouldn't mind it I'm just not sold on Middlebrooks or Iglesias. It would be alright I suppose.

My guess and I hope I'm very wrong is Iglesias, Middlebrooks, Ranaudo.

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 09:39 PM) Scouting reports from the prospect nerds, damnit. Igesias is an elite defender. Plays SS and 3B. Bat is really questionable despite this year.

Please no Middlebrooks.

Iglesias really opens the door to move Alexei...
