QUOTE (spiderman @ Dec 9, 2015 -> 03:07 PM) My sources can confirm that the deal has not been completed. If/Once Ken Rosenthal breaks in, I will alert everyone. Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal 1m1 minute ago Source: #Athletics still pondering options with Lawrie. No deal with #WhiteSox yet. Different scenarios in play.

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 9, 2015 -> 03:06 PM) Just seems like the organization lost all faith in Johnson. I agree. Sanchez also showed life with the bat in the 2nd half, plus his defense is elite. I do believe Micah is on the block.

So, about that Brett Lawrie guy. Wonder if this is gonna get done, or we give up more for Frazier.

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 9, 2015 -> 03:02 PM) Frazier Eh, I think that's a pretty steep price. If Cozart was in the deal as well to play SS, I might be fine with that. I don't know, that's a lot.

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 9, 2015 -> 02:58 PM) I would absolutely support an Anderson/Adams/M. Johnson deal For Frazier and Phillips or just Frazier? C. Trent Rosecrans ‏@ctrent 4m4 minutes ago Word I’m hearing is #Reds are shopping Frazier heavily. Makes most sense at this point

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Dec 9, 2015 -> 02:50 PM) You mean Cozart? Yeah, it auto corrected lol.

QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ Dec 9, 2015 -> 02:51 PM) Chris Cotillo ‏@ChrisCotillo 12s12 seconds ago Source on Brett Lawrie-to-White Sox rumors: "Not done." So there's that. Great insight. Obviously it's not done if we haven't heard anything about it.

QUOTE (SCCWS @ Dec 9, 2015 -> 02:44 PM) We have to trade Avi if we get Lawrie. They are very similiar players. Both strikeout as often as they get a hit and both are terrible fielders. Avi draws more walks but Lawrie may be a tad faster...........................ugggh Lawrie isn't a terrible fielder

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Dec 9, 2015 -> 02:43 PM) I think they'd want more than just Anderson. My presumption is they'd be starting the conversation at Anderson / Fullmer. I honestly don't know that they budge from their. Reds would probably settle for a package built around Anderson, Johnson +. I don't know whether the Sox would. If it would take Anderson, Johnson+, I would ask for Frazier and Cozart. Then sign Upton

Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal 32s32 seconds ago Source: #Mets agree to trade Niese to #Pirates for Walker, pending medical reviews.

Things aren't heating up anymore.

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 9, 2015 -> 11:23 AM) To be fair, almost no teams have been mentioned with the big bats. Amazing how quiet it's been with Cespedes and Upton. Cespedes yes, but now the Upton market is heating up. Giants, O's, and Angels all have been linked. Although, it looks like Giants are focusing in on Gordon.

If we are indeed close with Lawrie, I don't know how we are not being mentioned with any of the big OF bats in FA or in trade (CarGo). Just getting Lawrie makes 0 sense.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Dec 9, 2015 -> 09:41 AM) Yet he has not moved anyone of note when the time was right. Never moving Ramirez was a bad move in hindsight. His return on Peavy is not looking all that great. The Santiago trade seems to be wash at best. The Davidson trade was a loss. This organization seems to be stagnating as they are build their farm system somewhat but to the degree that it will benefit them moving forward. Montas is a top 100 prospect and Wendelken will be in the bullpen at some point Eaton >>>>> Santiago

Chances we can get Reddick as part of this deal?

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Dec 9, 2015 -> 08:07 AM) I do. You just don't like what I throw out there. Acquire young talent. Don't trade for rents, career years and mediocre veterans. What the Sox are doing has a 100% failure rate. This team is not competing in 2016, no matter how much fawning Williams and Hahn do at the feet of Billy Beane. No matter how many of our young players we hand over to him. And if the price I heard is correct, it's an outrage. False. Look at what the Red Sox did when they won their last WS. Dempster, Peavy, Victorino, Napoli, Lackey.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Dec 9, 2015 -> 08:00 AM) Why do you always criticize other people's ideas, yet you never throw anything out there yourself? I don't get it. He does. He just doesnt mention players. He wants a Upton Thompson Avi OF

Mike Zunino also being mentioned in talks

That account is fake lol

Can Sonny Gray be involved in the deal as well?

QUOTE (raBBit @ Dec 9, 2015 -> 12:51 AM) I'm going to guess one of the better arms Adams/Danish/Guererro and Coats. I'll go Guererro and Coats. Guererro has SoCal roots. That would hurt, but our minor league pitching depth is pretty damn good.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Dec 9, 2015 -> 12:46 AM) Let's talk about the trade instead of the parameters of who Chilihead roots for. Who do you guys think is in the return? I know the Sox have been talking on this for weeks and supposedly Oakland wanted EJ so as long as he's not involved you have to think the Sox got what they want. Beck/Danish and Coats

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Dec 9, 2015 -> 12:42 AM) One last comment on him as a person..... When Lawrie first heard he was going to be added to the "40"-man roster. Lmao, you're really trying to prove a point. I'll like the Lawrie trade as long as its not the only move done.

I'm gonna guess Beck/Danish and Coats for Lawrie
