Jose Abreu

I get it, it all makes sense to me, but it's still tough to swallow. Derrick Rose is the star player I grew up admiring. I was 8 when he was drafted and I remember it like it was yesterday.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Jun 22, 2016 -> 12:25 PM) He's actually pitched at his best in high leverage situations and with runners on base this year. lmao, you keep refuting points with stats

QUOTE (NCsoxfan @ Jun 21, 2016 -> 09:00 PM) Sale for Bogaerts/Bradley Jr and any two prospects ? I doubt Boston would do that. Therefore, they don't get Chris Sale

win

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Jun 21, 2016 -> 08:29 PM) Boston writers will have the Sale trade to the Red Sox ironed out by Wednesday morning. The White Sox should get a robust collection of prospects that Boston writers and fans do not want. A bunch of Boston fans I saw talking online seemed to agree on Sale for Moncada and Espinoza

QUOTE (Condor13 @ Jun 21, 2016 -> 03:48 PM) Saladino's not playing over Frazier, Anderson, or Lawrie so he's on the bench where he should be. Once in a while, DH Abreu, 1B Frazier, 3B Saladino

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jun 21, 2016 -> 10:33 AM) get f***ing real. Dont give me Moncada and prospects. If Sale goes, especially to Boston, major league young players PLUS prospects are coming back. GTFO Agreed. We are not trading Sale. Not necessarily because we shouldn't, but because nobody will be willing to offer a package that is equal to his worth. Oh well, I guess we'll have to keep a Cy Young caliber pitcher around.

Last year, our big winning streak ended in Boston with Sale getting destroyed on the mound. This year, our incredible one-game winning streak will CONTINUE and Sale will be much better!

close enough ^^^

Here comes the strikeout

Eaton

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 18, 2016 -> 09:05 PM) Statistically, it's almost impossible for scouts and a GM to be so wrong so often. Yeah, they were so wrong on Abreu, Quintana, Eaton (trade but he was a rookie), Sale, etc.

Send him to the 15 day DL with a phantom injury, hope he figures it out in that time.

Tim Anderson:

Eaton

To the thread title:

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 18, 2016 -> 12:26 AM) Basically, they're looking at spending another $10-15 million minimum, the rest of THIS year, to legitimately compete. They're facing two teams in the Tigers and Royals with a lot more revenue or free-spending ownership or better prospects to trade or all three. The Royals and Tigers are both surely nearing the ends of their windows (2017 for both), so Glass and Ilitch are going to pull out all the stops to get to the playoffs this season and next. And the Indians clearly have the best and deepest pitching staff in the division, and that's not going to change anytime soon. With Salazar, Kluber, Carrasco, Tomlin, Bauer and then Cody Anderson and Clevinger, they've got surplus pitching as well as 2-3 really nice hitting prospects (Top 100) that are fairly advanced already. Finally, in the battle for Braun, Bruce, Chris Carter, Wil Myers, Odorizzi, Sonny Gray...we're not in a position to do anything besides taking on high salary/unwise contracts, so we'll simply end up taking on more questionable veteran contracts to follow up Shields. It's why I said ---K IT!, add Puig and roll the dice. If they're going to go down with the ship, let it be with a young/er player with talent and who's fun to watch instead of another veteran "has been." I'm quite dubious about Ventura/Steverson getting anything productive out of him, but now there's never been a better opportunity to strike...he's becoming too much of a distraction for Roberts. So nice you posted it... thrice?
