Jose Abreu

We'd probably have to take Upton's brother too. They play everywhere together now.

Rick Slattery ‏@rickslat123 36m36 minutes ago Sources: @whitesox deal for Pierzynski imminent. @Braves #MLBTradeDeadline Don't worry, this is the same guy who said we traded Tim Anderson for Samardzija last November.

From Seattle for Jose Ramirez (the pitcher, not the infielder) and Ramon Flores

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 03:32 PM) We now have 6 pages across 2 threads discussing Justin f***ing Sellers To be fair, some of these pages are about Cespedes

QUOTE (southside hitman @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 03:31 PM) Chris Cotillo did report it earlier that he was likely to be traded. Why is there so much reporting on this guy? He's a minor leaguer yet these two insiders are up-to-date with his rumors... funny how Nightengale/Rosenthal etc. have been breaking news on big names, while these two guys are reporting on Justin Sellers.

QUOTE (bjm676 @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 03:19 PM) Well #12 is now available. Only to be taken by Justin Sellers!

James Fox ‏@JamesFox917 50s50 seconds ago Justin Sellers means nothing. Micah injured. Anderson not ready. Leury, Sanchez, Saladino all in majors. Need depth. #WhiteSox

QUOTE (Frank_Thomas35 @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 03:11 PM) He looks like a real winner: http://www.chadmoriyama.com/2013/01/everyb...eing-a-dips***/ What a guy.

Here we were talking about Cespedes, when meanwhile, we were acquiring this Sellers kid.

QUOTE (Sockin @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 03:04 PM) He's a AAAA SS. Precursor to a SS trade? Saladino and Sanchez can play SS. And Micah can be called up to play 2B for Sanchez if he slid over, so I don't think so.

QUOTE (Frank_Thomas35 @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 03:02 PM) Who the f is Justin sellers http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/s/selleju01.shtml

Let's be real here, it's not like many of us were thinking about signing Cespedes long-term this offseason anyway. Not with our current group of outfielders, and for the assumed price.

Cespedes' career at US Cellular Field: 14-50 (.280) 3 HR 4 RBI

Damn, just looking at that lineup and imaging Cespedes in it for LaRoche is great... (if you don't know what I'm talking about then go to Trade Winds)

Or he could play LF and Melky could DH.

QUOTE (Frank_Thomas35 @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 02:46 PM) Pitching. Probably starting and relief Just for two-three months of him?

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 02:42 PM) Is cespedes good at defense? Man, i'd love love love that power. Well he has a tremendous arm. Melky would probably move to RF.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 02:39 PM) Bob Nightengale ‏@BNightengale 16s16 seconds ago The #WhiteSox are aggressively looking for a hitter, and checking in with everybody, including #Tigers Cespedes HERE WE GO YES, A RUMOR

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 02:37 PM) I really don't like Upton. Not a very good hitter. But I just want a bat so we'll see. So you think CarGo is a good hitter but Upton isn't?

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 02:36 PM) As Upton just hit a 3 run bomb in the 9th to take the lead against the Mets. That said, don't see us giving up much for a rental like Upton. The Padres are winning?? It was like 7-1 Mets in the 6th when I was watching. Damn.

Jose Bautista ‏@JoeyBats19 3m3 minutes ago All these people are excited about @DAVIDprice14 and im just here like when does Astro get here???? ?????? #JustKidding #LetsGoooo :lol: (Astro is his dog)

Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal 57s57 seconds ago Sources: #Padres progressing on multiple deals, with Ross a key piece. Moving him would signal concession in ’15. But looking at adding too. Maybe one is with us for Upton?
