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.

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.

QUOTE (Frank_Thomas35 @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 03:45 PM) Not sure why we continue to add pitching prospects when we need position players. And we have only added one in Moncada. This is too strange. This (Basabe too but still)

QUOTE (Frank_Thomas35 @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 03:43 PM) Damn that sucks, loading up on pitching Which is what we're actually good at developing on our own.

No Turner + No Robles = bad deal. Giolito and Lopez isn't enough for Eaton.

QUOTE (Dam8610 @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 03:38 PM) Is it done? Or did he just confirm they're in "serious talks" or whatever the phrase of the day is? No, confirms that we're in [insert phrase], not that it's done

Rosenthal confirms. It's legit.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 03:31 PM) The thing about Turner is he is going to regress to the mean. He isn't a .342 hitter. He isn't a 25 home run guy. He's still valuable player, but .. Thank you. People are overreacting to short MLB stints from guys like Turner, and, on the other end of the spectrum, Moncada.

official

Tapia is an outfield trade option now, too.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 10:20 AM) Wow what position is he expected to play? From what I understand, they have C- Murphy 1B- ? 2B- DJ SS- Story 3B- Arenado LF- Desmond/Parra/Dahl CF- Blackmon RF- Gonzalez Basically, Dahl is now freed up to be traded.
