Jose Abreu

QUOTE (greg775 @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 09:31 PM) I'd get rid of Melky now but I doubt anybody wants him. Melky for two low level prospects if anybody will bite? The Giants desperately need someone for LF. I could see them having interest.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 08:51 PM) OK, one thing we should know as Sox fans is that there is zero chance of them bidding on top line free agents when we are going to be coming off of two completely terrible season. We don't do that coming off of good seasons. I don't know why this has taken traction, but look at the White Sox free agent history, and tell me why there is any answer other than no. Please tell me why, throughout the night, you've been nitpicking at the weakest replies to your nonsensical complaints, but ignoring the common response: the rebuild is not done. We will trade more assets for position players in the very near future.

MLBN seems to think Abreu does have good value, regardless of what sabermetrics think. Abreu for Murphy and Tapia?

QUOTE (miracleon35th @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 05:50 PM) Need position players including outfielders, Right now 2017 outfield is Melky/Shuck/Avi G. Why does the 2017 OF matter

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 05:45 PM) I have said for months that if you went this direction you had to do it right, and build your position players. In the two biggest deals of the off season, they have probably came out even. It is a huge failure so far. For the 4th time, there are more trades to be executed. Be patient. Q to Houston for bats could happen very soon.

QUOTE (Lemon_44 @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 05:41 PM) I wasn't thrilled with the return for Sale but this makes up for it. Great trade for a rebuild. My sentiments exactly. Sale trade was a 7/10 to me, this is a 10/10.

QUOTE (SoCalSox @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 05:40 PM) Supposedly, the Sox & Astros are far along in a deal for Q according to MLB Network. Did anyone else hear that? I caught that too.

Hahn on MLBN in a few

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 05:34 PM) You've won me over. This really is the dumbest organization in baseball. Only the White Sox could lack position players, and then trade their best chips for pitching. We need to fire everyone up top and start over. Are you trolling? Are you aware of the fact that there are more trades to be made?

Twins message board guy who is apparently well-respected and has a source says Dozier for De Leon/Bellinger is close

Rabbit tweeted that we're not near done yet

QUOTE (Tony @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 04:38 PM) Let the process work itself out this entire off-season. You SHOULD judge each trade for what they are, but it's not totally in a vacuum either. Q now becomes the key here. Right, wait until January, or at least until Friday, to get mad about a lack of position players. More trades will occur.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 04:31 PM) One position player in, and Eaton out. I don't see the net gain here. QUOTE (Special K @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 04:35 PM) Agreed. We are set for pitching as one can be but utterly starving for position players, especially outfielders. But we just traded our best one who could've been part of the future. One thing I will say is that we sold as high we probably could've with Eaton... just wish it would've been for a position player headliner. Come on guys. Can't judge our overall team until all moves are done. I trust Rick. Quintana will be traded for bats.

Nats fan:

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 04:16 PM) Where is Frazier going to play, 1B? Yes

Intentional talk guys "that would make sense if it were Quintana and Eaton, but just Eaton?"

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 04:11 PM) I see us moving Q for positional talent....Bregman clearly comes to mind. If they're not moving Bregman, I propose Q/Frazier for K. Tucker, P. Tucker, Martes, Fisher, Musgrove. Something like that.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 04:10 PM) Bad bad trade Why

As long as we get some bats for Quintana

Eh... you know what, I'll take it.

What is the +? WHAT IS THE +????

Jon HeymanVerified account ‏@JonHeyman Eaton deal to Nats is indeed close. Was 6 WAR player last year BK tells me

QUOTE (Baron @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 03:58 PM) What does this mean? Byron Kerr ‏@masnKerr 3m3 minutes ago I'm hearing it's not straight up trade "multiple players" for Eaton says source https://twitter.com/masnKerr That we're getting more than one player back. Which should be obvious, given Adam's value.

I was hoping for trading Q to Colorado for Murphy +. Murphy is quite the catching prospect.
