Jose Abreu

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jun 23, 2017 -> 12:25 PM) I want to believe in Davidson being real, it's just really odd that he struggled so hard out of nowhere in 2014/15 but the line he is hitting at is pretty much what he has done the rest of his minors career The new baseballs are probably a big boost to his numbers.

I think Moncada will be the everyday 2B by the end of this season, and thus on Opening Day as well.

QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Jun 22, 2017 -> 11:09 PM) Brown, #3, Brooklyn's 2018 #1, & Kings 2019. That would definitely get declined, but I know a guy who could get you Kris Dunn, a draft pick, and a guy with a torn ACL with 1 year on his contract.

QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ Jun 20, 2017 -> 12:49 PM) Tommy Kahnle in save situations - MLB - 3/7 MiLB - 39/52 Yeah, those 7th inning blown saves should scare teams away!!!

QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Jun 19, 2017 -> 09:11 PM) Its funny that the sox have a better pen then the nationals They're not even on the same planet

I know it's unlikely, but I'll be quite happy if we walk out of this with either Devin Booker or Zach LaVine (in addition to picks, of course)

Melky Cabrera

A. Garcia

Abreu

QUOTE (BamaDoc @ Jun 19, 2017 -> 04:26 PM) Adams has a WHIP of 1 , ERA 1.78, k>1 per inning. Fowler also at AAA, 20%k rate, OPS .863 (better than Frazier) and 11sb with improved D. Andujar about 16% k rate . BA .312 OPS .836 at AA. All three 22 years old and by being closer to the majors less risky to me. I wanted one more player but these three are all highly thought of and performing. I would certainly not turn down another prospect but Frazier to me is mainly a salary dump. Doubt you get more than a couple C type prospects without paying his way. Without a big headliner like Frazier/Rutherford, it's not worth it.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Jun 19, 2017 -> 01:08 PM) Yeah I'm not sure where they would play him with the current alignment because as of right now, Davidson also deserves every day at bats. I think that once Frazier is traded, Davidson will be the everyday 3B with Delmonico at DH/occasionally spelling Abreu at 1B.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jun 19, 2017 -> 12:47 PM) No, but he's the most major league ready bat and we need another positional guy. Hanson & Willy can continue to cover CF in the interim. He's only a DH, though. His defense isn't playable in the Majors as of now.

QUOTE (sin city sox fan @ Jun 18, 2017 -> 02:26 PM) It may be too late as his value has gone through the roof, but I'd offer him an 8 year $120 million extension. If he takes it, he's the centerpiece of our rebuild. If he doesn't, trade him if you can get a package as good (or better) as we got for Sale. 8/120?! No way he accepts anything below 12/360.

That Abreu AB was so professional. Really fun to watch, and he bailed out Renteria again. I don't care where he is in the order, Melky Cabrera should never bunt with RISP and nobody out.

QUOTE (Two-Gun Pete @ Jun 18, 2017 -> 10:39 AM) See, Avi's Rod Carew-esque Babip has lead to irrational exhuberance, such as calling him a "middle order bat." Or recalling KW's unadulterated BS of calling Avi's potential as "30-30." Now, drop his Babip to a league average Babip, or even slightly above average, and Avi's a below average player, at best. Re-signing him would be insanity, IMO. His batted ball statistics suggest that he is making less weak contact than he ever has, which obviously adds for more medium and hard contact. Things like this need to be factored into your BABIP regression argument.

Like 90% of those PAs are Leury's lol

Who says no? Chicago receives: Rafael Devers, Jason Groome, Blake Swihart, Jaylen Brown, 2017 #3 overall NBA Draft selection, 2018 1st Round NBA Draft selection (via Lakers) Boston receives: Jimmy Butler, Jose Quintana, Todd Frazier, 2023 2nd Round NBA Draft selection

QUOTE (ron883 @ Jun 17, 2017 -> 04:28 PM) Seems like he is only good when there is no pressure on. He always blows the first half before the sox are essentially out of it. Jose Abreu career during the 1st half: .288/.339/.848 with a 34/109 pace over a full season. Next?

QUOTE (Tony @ Jun 17, 2017 -> 04:34 PM) Not only will you not admit to being wrong (twice with these threads) 3x, in fact. This one, this one, and this one.

Today was a rare outlier in which all the bunting actually worked, even if we did get bailed out by an error. We don't win this game if it wasn't for Kahnle. The 7th inning double play and 1-2-3 8th took away all of our pressure.

QUOTE (Wanne @ Jun 17, 2017 -> 02:34 PM) plus the wrong side of 30. He'd be a nice piece in a package. Personally...I'd like to hang onto Kahnle unless it's a ridiculous return. Kahnle's years of team control make it very unlikely for us to receive a fair trade offer for him. I'm with you on this

His numbers are certainly ASG worthy at this point. Could be a reserve.

Again, we can't choose up to 3 because you didn't make that possible in the settings.
