Hope he signs and then Turner goes elsewhere. Dodgers come running to us for Robertson/Frazier

Going to miss his hustle and fan interaction. Played the game the right way 95% of the time

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 09:12 PM) I can tell you one thing for sure. I will be watching less baseball this year than I have in any season probably since Robin Ventura left Chicago as a free agent. I have not been nearly this bitter with the White Sox since that specific day. I had thought about Soxfest after getting a nice bonus this quarter, and there is no way I am spending $500 to do that now. I can't believe you are this upset because we didn't get a couple more hitting prospects even though we are not done selling off right now. We aren't filling holes here, we are getting the best prospects possible for our players and we have done that. We got the best damn hitting prospect in the game and you seem to forget about that because we traded Eaton for the top pitching prospect and another one that is top 40? Come on man, get the hell out of here with that

So are the Yankees going to try and compete this year or what?

We also got Basabe who could be a top 100 prospect by midseason

QUOTE (Saufley @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 04:55 PM) Moncada??? Anderson??? Collins??

QUOTE (Tony @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 04:44 PM) @JeffPassan 52s52 seconds ago In 30 hours, White Sox have added six excellent prospects and still have Quintana, Abreu, Frazier, Robertson to deal. Rick Hahn, doing work. He will get a couple more hitting prospects. We now have more talent and a deep farm to make trades in a couple years when we just need that extra hitter.

#3 prospect, #38 prospect, and Nationals 1st Rounder in 2016 And people are upset?!?!

Q is going for hitters now. Guarantee

QUOTE (bmags @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 03:49 PM) Listen, I was dreaming about Robles. This sucks. But the white sox farm was equally bad for pitching as hitting. We need everything. Our pitchers are a lot better IMO

Oh god this is going to be painful

Man I really wanted to keep Quintana

Videos don't seem to be working for me. Just a black screen Edit: took off adblocker and is working now

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 08:30 PM) I'm just saying if you're really committing to a rebuild then it makes sense to apply that same logic to guys like Avi. Same with Saladino, same with Sanchez. Yes Avi has failed but unless they have someone he's blocking (and they don't) then you just trot him out there and hope for the best. If they were contending (like last Winter's moves indicated) then it would be stupid (like it was last year with Avi) but they aren't, things change. There's no downside to letting Avi trot out there for 300 more PA if he's not blocking anybody. If we don't trade Melky or Eaton I would expect Avi to start

I really don't know what to expect in a return for Quintana

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 08:22 PM) Well, if we are going by that logic then they are probably going to run Avi out there again as well. I don't have a problem with it in what is FINALLY a rebuilding year. If they suck they suck and actually might help bring success by improving the draft pick. If they improve, f***ing great. Well no lol. Avi has had plenty of chances, Navarez has not

Or we go with the future. Anderson, Moncada, Rodon, Collins, Kopech

If we are doing this rebuilding thing I want Navarez to get most of the reps at Catcher to see if we might have something with him

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 07:53 PM) Morosi on MLBN said Nats could be a fit for Eaton Hot take there

QUOTE (TheFutureIsNear @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 07:54 PM) There's this Zack Collins guy out there...we should really look into him. Sorry to break it to you but he probably won't stick at catcher.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 05:33 PM) Well he should be. Not by much though

QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 05:31 PM) Heard around the Winter Meetings: there are more teams with interest in Quintana than there were pursuing Sale. https://twitter.com/scottmerkin/status/806279598698856448 Not sure of the level of seriousness in regard to Quintana and the various teams https://twitter.com/scottmerkin/status/806279678445162498 Because they think he is cheaper

1st time a #1 prospect has been traded?

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 03:03 PM) They have to take a break to reload on coffee and food. Don't they just have to press a few buttons to make trades happen?

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 02:56 PM) What's the initial take from people regarding the return? Fair, overwhelmed, underwhelmed? Just a tiny bit underwhelmed but not upset or mad
