  1. Rose Flete Diaz Basabe Cease Dunning Lopez Giolito Robert Kopech Jimenez Moncada Reverse order.
  2. QUOTE (WBWSF @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 09:29 PM) Hahn grew up a Cubs fan. The Quintana trade gets the Cubs into the 2017 Playoffs. I figure after a couple of years of 100 losses the White Sox will show Hahn the door. He will then be hired by Epstein working for the cubs. This is more of a stretch than Jake Burger being signed with Rondo's savings.
  3. QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 09:30 PM) I think we have more redundancy than that. They aren't as high profile yet but your Adolfo's / Skougs area other level and possible leaps from Gonzalez / Call / Fisher / Booker and you also have guys like Josue Guerrero. As well as Delmonico, and emergence from Davidson, Sanchez, Engel and Leury.
  4. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 09:25 PM) 100% Along those same lines, you can say we haven't acquired enough pitching because there's never enough pitching.
  5. LHP is definitely the biggest weakness. Need some arms behind Guerrero. Hopefully Rodon hangs around.
  6. QUOTE (TheFutureIsNear @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 08:05 PM) Rumors are swirling of the Marlins ownership selling off the likes of Stanton and Yelich, 2 controllable young OF's with a proven track record. If we could put together a package without including any of Moncada, Robert, Eloy, Cease, Kopesch, or Hansen would you? The Phillies are rumored to be suitors and their farm system is nothing impressive in my opinion. I've been 100% on board with a full rebuild for years, but if we can get a long term bat like Yelich to speed the process up I'd be all for it. You're not getting Stanton without giving up one of Moncada, Robert or Eloy unless teams are really balking at the money. And if they are I don't know if I would as Stanton is 27 and fragile. I'd be extremely tempted to.
  7. QUOTE (beautox @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 06:56 PM) I really wished Quintana, Sale and Rodon were going to lead the sox to the post season sadly it didn't happen. Q was nothing but a pro, never b****ed or complained or showed his team mates up, while getting ND after ND. I will root for him on the north side. I will pull for the Cubs every fifth game.
  8. QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 08:01 PM) It was the #1 system right around 2000. Scouting wasn't what it was today, however, and not many of those players turned into much. That system had no Moncada, Jimenez or Kopech either. Scouting is the difference maker here. Advanced metrics and more tools at scouts disposal (hello, HD video) makes scouting a much less exact science. But four elite prospects (I'm counting Robert)? Haven't had that in a long time if ever.
  9. Quin replied to Heads22's topic in FutureSox Board
    2 RBI single for Eloy.
  10. QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 06:34 PM) You know how much sox fans love q when we are also pissed at a guy saying we got a great trade because the player we gave up isn't any good. I will always defend Q.
  11. QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 06:06 PM) Has anybody seen the Rum Bunter account? Jesus he's so salty So much salt.
  12. QUOTE (hi8is @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 04:21 PM) Mayo says burger, sheets, and skoug will all be top 100 on new list And who drops off from Sox? Fulmer? Cause Hansen fan jump in.
  13. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 04:18 PM) Miguel Gonzalez and Mike Pelfrey could be included as well. Holland and Holmberg as well.
  14. QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 04:10 PM) Reading the thread in /r/baseball and there are a few Cub fans downplaying Eloy, saying he'll probably be "Soler 2.0", funny how that always happens when prospects are traded. In before someone mentions Tatis.
  15. QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 02:21 PM) Quintana was the perfect replacement for Mark Buehrle. Now we need another "soft" tossing lefty to rise from the ashes and make us forget about Q. Best wishes buddy, go win a World Series. Guerrero. Also, this would make a Q return even sweeter.
  16. Parroting everyone else, top 2 with Braves.
  17. Best nickname in Soxtalk history and best FA signing in team history.
  18. Get Beer and suddenly future OF looks loaded.I'd also say this should put Avi on the market.
  19. I shall miss The Feathered Serpent. Great return though.
  20. Yeah, wish we had moved him to highest bidder this past offseason. Trade Kahnle.
  21. QUOTE (Frank_Thomas35 @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 01:05 AM) What did the tweet even say? Supposedly Q to Cubs for four prospects.
  22. If the Rosenthal tweet is real - anyone think he might have taken it down because Rick Hahn did a last call (a la Sale to Nats) and someone like the Brewers stepped in?
  23. QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ Jul 12, 2017 -> 11:34 PM) Watch the write-ups then of Reinsdorf's so-called "legacy" in a few years when his tenure as owner of both teams has ended. They won't seem so "separate" when all of that nonsense begins. The narrative has already begun in several fluff pieces: Reinsdorf being described as "so awesome" for the city of Chicago because he brought "seven" championships to the city. He brought six Bulls trophies to the city of Chicago along with the lonely ONE and only ONE championship achieved on the South Side over his nearly 40 years at the helm there. Certainly very impressive for the basketball franchise; not-so-much for the baseball franchise, not over a forty period. Reinsdorf is somehow being made a hero in this city because he's been compared to the losing likes of the Tribune Company, the McCaskey's, and Bill Wirtz. Can you imagine any faint praise greater than this!! We ought to watch out for the favorable journalistic license already underway to conflate this guy's record during his time on the South Side with that with which Michael Jordan allowed him to achieve with the Bulls. Make no mistake: Reinsdorf's last chance for salvaging his legacy with the Sox is tied to this rebuild. If under Reinsdorf's waning days of ownership, Hahn can manage to acquire and develop the kind of players that will lead to a level of achievement manifesting itself in the organization's FIRST-EVER display of sustainable postseason play, then MAYBE Reinsdorf's legacy will withstand historical scrutiny. Otherwise, he'll simply be lumped in with the Allyns and the rest of the organization's owners responsible for the team's sad record of futility, and it'll open up a golden chance for the NEXT OWNER to achieve what no other Sox owner has managed to achieve: a winning Chicago White Sox baseball organization. What the f***?
  24. Anyone that actually believes that is a moron.
