QUOTE (zenryan @ Nov 22, 2015 -> 03:38 PM) Flacco out for year? ACL On the final pass play of the game too.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Nov 21, 2015 -> 11:25 AM) Isis apparently has plans to attack survivor series. Where'd you hear that?

A's just DFA'd AJ Griffin

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Nov 20, 2015 -> 02:05 PM) Wendelken I get. Surprised they didn't protect Tago. And Brennan has about half a season's innings in A+, seems like a wasted add to me. No one is picking him. They can still protect him. Might not be just them 2 at this moment. Sox haven't officially announced anything yet.

Brewers trade SS Luis Sardines to the Mariners

Mariners DFA'd LHP Danny Hultzen. #2 pick in 2011. Shoulder injuries have ruined his career. Worth a risk?

QUOTE (Special K @ Nov 20, 2015 -> 11:36 AM) From what I saw of LaRoche last season, I'm fairly certain he's the worst player in history of baseball ever. I do not think it's possible to have a bounce back season. Don't think we can trade him either unless the other GM somehow went crazy. Best to let him rot on the pine, move Avi to DH to focus on hitting, and give Trayce a shot. Lol, step back from the ledge. LaRoche isn't the worst player on the Sox. LaRoche has had a pretty decent career, he was just bad last season.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Nov 20, 2015 -> 10:51 AM) I hope the Yankees realize that Castro isn't a SS long-term. More likely a 2B. They have Gregorious at SS anyway.

QUOTE (LDF @ Nov 19, 2015 -> 07:36 PM) Well this is my erratic idea that i came out with last week or 2, with a few corrections. i know i may get flamed or maybe not. I am going with an idea it can be done. I am going to make this as realistic as possible. However b/c of the idea of the sox system is needing prospects and players who can play in the majors while the young prospects will develop. ^^^^ Trade ^^^ ~~ To Stl - Melky - Q - Robinson Leyer ~~ To Sox - of-S.Piscotty - of-Harrison Bader - cat-Mike Ohlman - 3b-Paul DeJong - sp-Sandy Alcantara ~~ To Pitt - now i have a feeling that Pitt wants to rebuild and get younger players while not sacrificing theirs. Furthermore, they have younger players ready to step in... 1 at 2b and the other in the outfield. Plus 3 mil for Laroche salary. - sp-Rodon - rp-Webb - 1b-LaRoche-salary swap - sp-Thad Lowry - sp-Myles Jaye ~~ To Sox - 1b-Pedro Alvarez - of-Starling Marte - of-Willy Garcia - ss/2b-Cole Tucker - sp-Chad Kuhl - sp-Yeudy Garcia ~~ To Cincy - 2b-Micah Johnson - of-S.Piscotty - 3b-Matt Davidson / change of scenery - sp-Erik Johnson - of-C Hawkins - C. Beck - N Sanburn ~~ To Sox - 3b-Todd Frazier - cat-Tucker Barnhart - sp-Cody Reed - 3b-Gavin LaValley Free Agents signing. - sp-David Price - sp-Mike Leake - 3 option yrly or buyout after 3yrs - sp-Alfredo Simón - 2 yrs option 1 optional pitcher - sp-Ryan Vogelsong 1 yr option 1 with a buyout. around the horn cat - Flowers bu Barnhart 1b - Jose Abreu 2b - Sanchez ss. - Saladino 3b - Frazier Dh - Alavarez of Eaton Marte Thompson sp Sale Price Leake Danks Simon Rp the same except Webb. money coming off the salary. anywhere from 33-36 mil being added, 19 mil in big salary now add the Free agents. crazy but i like it. That Quintana deal is pretty bad because you don't get enough for Q. Packaging Q with Melky diminishes Q's value because then teams have to take on Melky's contract. Why are so many players involved in these trades? Why trade Rodon? You probably added about 60 million in payroll as well with the trade of Frazier and signings of Simon, Price, and Leake

This can go in the NFL thread.

QUOTE (Dubzinski rules @ Nov 19, 2015 -> 02:19 PM) My choices for next year's minor league starters are: AAA: Fulmer, Montas, Beck, Marin, Jaye. AA: Danish, Guerrero, Barnette, Brennan, R. Leyer A: Clark, Erwin, Almonte, Adams, Lowry Low A: Wheeler, Quintero, Quijada, Solórzano, Comito Left out or moved on from: Heidenreich, Cose, Valerio, Banks, Einhardt. Still have hope for: Peralta, Thompson, De La Cruz, Martinez, Easterling. The Winston Salem rotation looks stacked. AAA- Fulmer, Montas, Beck, Jaye, and Heidenreich AA- Danish, Brennan, Guerrero, Blackmar, and Dykstra (Leyer in the pen) A+- Adams, Lowry, Almonte, Erwin, and Thompson/Wheeler A- Martinez, Solarzano, Peralta, Banks, and Quintero

Jonathan Villar to the Brewers.

For those wondering if Walker can play 3B, he last played 3B in MLB in 2010.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Nov 19, 2015 -> 11:38 AM) That's probably true, but an outfield spot will open up for them once Fowler leaves. Avi would be a much cheaper (albeit less talented) alternative to Heyward/Upton/Cespedes/etc Almora

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Nov 19, 2015 -> 11:31 AM) I wonder if the Cubs would trade Baez for Avi and Danish/Beck/etc? They have no need for Avi with their glut outfielders.

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Nov 19, 2015 -> 11:07 AM) We have a young 2b with potential who plays better defense than Walker. No need to use assets there with so many weaknesses elsewhere. Hero worshipping.

QUOTE (LDF @ Nov 19, 2015 -> 11:28 AM) and since Eminor wants to do something, does that mean no one has an idea that may be different??? What? You said that no one mentioned to give Avi away for free or for junk? If you do get rid of him, use him as part of a package to get major league talent like a C or 3B.

QUOTE (LDF @ Nov 19, 2015 -> 11:24 AM) and you make a point. however there is a little flaw in this post, no one mention giving Avi away let alone for junk. it was an exploratory idea of a trade for Avi,. False, Eminor3rd wants to DFA him.

By the way, I do not want the rebuild to happen. Just some ideas lol

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Nov 18, 2015 -> 05:46 PM) I'm all for crazy ideas, but trading our number one prospect along with Sale and Eaton? Come on lol. Keep the ideas coming though it's fun. I'm not being a dick I'm just saying it's crazy. What if it was Owens or Moncada in place of the last starting pitcher and the deal still included Anderson.

QUOTE (Baron @ Nov 18, 2015 -> 04:59 PM) Why Profar for Q? Profar has clearly some injury issues and has not shown he can play in the majors. Still young, and has the potential to still be a really good player.
