  1. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Nov 18, 2015 -> 02:07 PM) And young "talent" has a way of disappointing. It wasn't long ago many were concerned about the date Matt Davidson had to wait so he wouldn't be a super 2. If they traded Q, Sale, Abreu, and Robertson for prospects, they would IMO no doubt be considered a top 5 farm system in baseball. If you look at the supposed top farm systems in baseball 4 or 5 years ago, and look at their top 10 prospects, there aren't very many of them making much of a contribution these days. That's the overall problem. Just wait until those prospects start failing. People that were for selling those players will be jumping the ship rapidly. Ontop of that we'll be in whose shape than we are now.
  2. QUOTE (fathom @ Nov 13, 2015 -> 06:57 PM) When you see this type of package for Kimbrel, it really makes me hope Hahn is listening on Sale. Thing is...I dont know if I trust Hahn to get a package where I be comfortable with seeing him leave. I imagine Jerry wouldnt be happy with that move.
  3. QUOTE (fathom @ Nov 13, 2015 -> 06:53 PM) Oh my that's a lot Guerra being in there is super surprising
  4. That's a great deal for the Padres.
  5. Margot is a good get for the Padres
  6. Well this was obvious. They tried to trade for him midseason.
  7. I mean if they are going for 5 years then trade Sale and Jose Abreu. Jerry should fire them immediately if that's the plan.
  8. So in other words nothing new. Same plan as before. Thanks Bruce.
  9. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 11, 2015 -> 12:42 PM) In the uncorrected version of this story, he calls our GM "Rick Someone". Bruce Levine is on his own planet right now. Yeah that was just silly.
  10. QUOTE (GreenSox @ Nov 11, 2015 -> 08:07 AM) 2nd half OPS around .650 Really stilted home/road splits 2 years of control No way should we trade 2 of our best prospects for that I know....those damn 4 WAR guys should be cheap in the trade market.
  11. QUOTE (GreenSox @ Nov 9, 2015 -> 09:58 PM) Phegley can hit; Semien can hit. Both are flawed but can hit. The issue though why is a 73 team trading young players for a 1 year rent. 1 in a series of ridiculous moves last winter. None of the moves were ridiculous. They just didnt work.
  12. QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Nov 9, 2015 -> 06:26 PM) I couldn't disagree more with most everything in this post. But I suppose that is the case most of the time when I read your posts. He's essentially ignoring what clearly the White Sox are trying to do
  13. QUOTE (fathom @ Nov 9, 2015 -> 06:02 PM) Hahn's comments today actually made it seem less likely they would trade with Cubs due to his 8 mile comment Well yeah. You get it wrong and all you have to do is walk not too far to see the mistake in action.
  14. QUOTE (LDF @ Nov 9, 2015 -> 02:54 PM) Baez and Castro would be horrible whether in a larger pkg or not. i really don't see the excitement in them. just my opinion. They are both extremely flawed players. I wouldnt want them in any package.
  15. I always enjoy the Cubs fans trade thoughts. Let's give them Baez or Castro for Rodon or Sale...yeah that'll work
  16. QUOTE (GreenSox @ Nov 8, 2015 -> 10:55 PM) Hopefully aggressive in building the organization and bringing in young talent. Like we were in 2013. Hopefully not aggressive in bringing in"proven veterans" which failed miserably last year. Renteria did a good job with the Cubs. I'm fairly certain they dont want to repeat the strategy in 2013 again.
  17. QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Nov 8, 2015 -> 10:40 PM) Bleh. Wasn't this guy the Cubs manager a year or two ago? He's better than Mark Parent by default, but it don't see how he's a huge improvement. It's just nice to have a guy with experience if/when our manager gets canned
  18. Good. Now let's get some players to get this team back to playing good ball.
  19. QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Nov 8, 2015 -> 10:07 PM) Down to 8.. This is fun lol I would think if we weren't at least in the race somebody would have said something. It seems odd though It's a fun little start to the offseason. Kind of reminds me of the Tanaka bidding.
  20. QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Nov 8, 2015 -> 10:03 PM) I think he is just saying since it's basically assumed its them because they have a hole at first (basically) and have Kang. I think its them or Astros (tried to sign Abreu and have that short porch in left. Could utilize his power there.). Yeah I was just rating our chances against theirs. If they didnt win then it becomes more interesting for us.
  21. If the Pirates didnt win then it gets interesting
  22. QUOTE (Dunt @ Nov 8, 2015 -> 09:50 PM) Rays are out per Tompkin Well that didnt take long for me to be wrong
  23. "Manny would you take a 1 year deal to go along with our lame duck manager?"
  24. QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Nov 3, 2015 -> 04:37 PM) Well his magic glasses fixed his hitting so it must be an injury. Next year we can get him a magic bat with magic batting gloves. I just cant wait for him to be off arbitration. Let some other team deal with this crap.
