Don't be surprise if another trade is in the works for White Sox. https://twitter.com/SSS_joshnelson/status/677207504695242752

Frazier attributes second half drop-off last season to fatigue, playing for bad Reds team https://twitter.com/scotgregor/status/677210667250663424

#WhiteSox hit 136 HR last season, fewest in AL. Frazier and Lawrie combined to hit 51 https://twitter.com/scotgregor/status/677180524054446080

Sources: Players involved in the trade between the Dodgers and White Sox are still being informed of the deal, but it is done at this point. https://twitter.com/JeffPassan/status/677172816936984576

QUOTE (LDF @ Dec 16, 2015 -> 06:37 AM) i know that trading with or trying to trade with cincy is near impossible. but today on mlbt, cincy is looking or just made avail Brandon Phillips ... if the cost is not too ridiculous, he might be a nice option. I think Cincinnati made most available a while ago. Tho nationals and cincy are in talks over phillips. Also you are talking about a 34 going to be 35 year old in 2016 with 2 years left on contract at about 27 million all together

QUOTE (spiderman @ Dec 14, 2015 -> 08:35 PM) Have the White Sox been linked to Gordon? How about Cespedes? I don't recall hearing any actual rumors, more speculation. Obviously, there have been some rumors earlier this month about Upton. Which of these require a draft pick to sign? Baltimore is the one team I'm not sure what they are doing, if they are truly out on Chris Davis also. Angels seem to be in the hunt and Cardinals claim they are not. Very interesting. Have to assume this will sort itself out quickly, as in this week for at least one of these guys. Cespedes doesn't require pick. That's it

Giants deal with Cueto takes them out of Upton & Cespedes who now must concentrate on doing deals with #Angels #Cardinals #Orioles #WhiteSox https://twitter.com/JimBowden_ESPN/status/676520239950008322

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Dec 14, 2015 -> 05:02 PM) Lol no he said Rodon. I laughed at that. Cause I'm sure we could throw in Robin instead. Might even be able to get a gofund me page for sox fans to try to cover his salary to get rid of him lol

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Dec 14, 2015 -> 05:16 PM) Markakis is worse than Avi at this point. No thanks. Unless he's worse defensively otherwise other then low power last year he's was better then avi last year. Avi 257.309.365.675 Markakis 296.370.376.746 Markakis gets on base alot more then avi and he hits for a higher average. Sox need guys on base. Tho Markakis does have more power before he also was a 1.9 war vs -0.3 on avi

QUOTE (Saufley @ Dec 14, 2015 -> 06:01 PM) Am I crazy to be getting excited the Sox might do something with Frazier or Upton? Or both

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Dec 14, 2015 -> 04:49 PM) Phil Rogers on MLBN said he's very much in play. Also said the Reds asked for Rodon. Lol good luck with that Cincy Sure he didn't mean Robin lol

http://southsideshowdown.com/2015/12/14/co...-the-white-sox/ Breaks down this season and future ones. Adds in what would happen for sox getting Frazier and upton.

QUOTE (LDF @ Dec 14, 2015 -> 09:55 AM) or better yet, rethink the game plan of how to make this team competitive and walk away from this. The problem is for the amount of offense they need and the price to get it is either going to be using a starting pitcher to get multiple pieces, trade prospects , or spend a bunch of money. The Sox are stuck on a fine line cause the starting pitching is very good and to trade from it will take away from the team. Trading a bunch of prospects witb a thin farm system will set you back. Sox opening up the money purse to get free agents might end up hampering you with a big contract . Unfortunately to fix most of it would be a full rebuild but they don't want to. So the dilemma goes on

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Dec 13, 2015 -> 06:27 PM) Last time Merkin said that, our own RaBBit & Nightengale mentioned that the Sox are/were interested in Upton. Nightingale was just saying that's were he thinks would be a good place land upton. Rabbit also said sox were talking to Reds for catcher before Sox got navarro. So it's all speculation. Hahn I'm sure would like to get the picks especially if they have to get any trades giving up talent. Cespedes makes more sense then

http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2015/12/brew...st-basemen.html Hopefully Hahn is calling to see if brewers will take Laroche

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 12, 2015 -> 03:02 PM) Life goes on. Cubs fans made it through the Sox winning, I'm sure we will be ok if they do I've seen cubs fan talk alot of crap about the sox winning the world series. Sox apparently still suck in alot of cubs fans eyes even for winning it all. And hope that I never have to see the cubs win the world series in my lifetime for how ignorant their fans can be. Sad part most are generally fans which make it worse.

http://m.rockies.mlb.com/news/article/1594...s?tcid=tw_share Says the White Sox have been long speculated as a possible landing slot for Carlos Gonzalez but rockies looking at Quintana. Basically they are looking for stating pitching and bullpen help

QUOTE (oldsox @ Dec 11, 2015 -> 08:29 PM) A talking head media type on MLB just said Cinci wanted Tim Anderson for Frazier, and Sox said no. Hopefully Sox can sway them with a different package

QUOTE (oldsox @ Dec 11, 2015 -> 08:14 PM) Ditto. Before considering this trade, Hahn has to determine if this kid with Rockies is a much better prospect than Trey. Well just saying McMahon is a top 100 prospect at #50 and he's number 3 on top 3rd baseman prospects in all of the minors. Trey Michalczewski maybe very good one day but he's not touching McMahon right now. Trey might be needing some more time to decide anything.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Dec 11, 2015 -> 08:00 PM) I'm just really high on Fulmer and feel like he's going to be a very good big league pitcher. That being said, I'd trade any Sox prospect sans Fulmer or Anderson for McMahon. Ya I would say see what else it would take other then fulmer or Anderson but the things ive read on McMahon is pretty good .

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Dec 11, 2015 -> 07:57 PM) No thanks. Why? Not saying fulmer but it's a guy that fits Hahns younger controllable player. Plus we don't particularly have a future 3rd baseman at this point.

http://southsideshowdown.com/2015/12/11/wh...ce=snsanalytics McMahon has some pretty nice stats. Probably going ton be blocked by Arenado.
