Wieters accepts qualifying offer.

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Nov 13, 2015 -> 11:03 AM) Not necessarily. EJ is rumored to be on the trade block anyway and Samardzija could still be traded after he accepted the QO, although the return likely wouldn't be all that great. Still,there would be a few teams interested in trading for a one year commitment of Samardzija that comes with a comp pick when Samardzija enters FA next year so there is still some value in Samardzija even after he accepted the QO. Imo, he won't accept it but I've been wrong before. Highly doubt he accepts it. With the rumors of teams interested and I'm sure alot of teams are probably blaming the defense around him this year for some of the crappy stats he will decline

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Nov 12, 2015 -> 09:02 PM) Was looking around at potential SS/2B trade possibilities and read about how the Rangers are still high on Profar after investing heavily in him during the past two years with injuries and all. Got me thinking that maybe the Rangers look to deal Andrus but after looking at his numbers and contract, screw that. I can't believe I'm about to say this, gasp, I wonder if a trade with the cubs involving Erik Johnson and Starlin Castro would be a realistic possibility. Not saying I want this to happen, just trying to think about something that could happen and hasn't been speculated on yet. Also, I wonder if Castro could play 3B? Maybe re-sign Alexei to play SS until Anderson is ready? What can I say, I'm bored so far this off season. I think alot of us are bored. Alot of news and nothing much for sox besides coaches

Anyone trying get ideas for sox is over Source: Andrelton Simmons has been traded to the Angels. #Braves https://twitter.com/JesseSanchezMLB/status/...949654950273024

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Nov 12, 2015 -> 02:22 PM) I was thinking of the Marlins as well. Dietrich and Ozuna are good names that I think EJ can fetch. I like Dietrich because I see him as a Ben Zobrist type. Proposal: Erik Johnson and Trayce Thompson for Marcell Ozuna and Derek Dietrich Fair? Who says no? I posted a tweet a while ago that said the Marlins were looking for a #2 type starter for ozuna. So if that's the case then you can forget about using EJ trying to get him

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Nov 11, 2015 -> 06:38 PM) Wieters is out of play for the White Sox too. Was as soon as that Qualifying Offer was given. Don't think the qualifying offer is totally going to deter the sox. They got a 10 pick which is protected and should be a comp pick for shark when he declines. Sox don't have enough prospects to get the players back to fill all the holes they have. Quintana is going to be probably have to moved in order to full the spots. This is probably the last year they can try to sign qualifying offer free agent .

Pierzynksi returning to braves. Might take wieters out of play for them

#InsidePitch's @JimBowden_ESPN fits for Desmond: #Mets, #Padres, #WhiteSox, sleeper #Athletics. Won't return to #Nationals, Turner at SS https://twitter.com/MLBNetworkRadio/status/...540270655066112

Then Abreu gets kidnapped there and we loose our 1st baseman lol

QUOTE (Vance Law @ Nov 10, 2015 -> 01:55 PM) That isn't quite what Hahn said. There isn't a mention of cost. Hahn says, “I think ideally we’re going to be adding pieces, though, that are younger and more controllable for an extended period of time." He says "controllable" in reference to time, not cost. Jason Heyward is younger and the he'll be controllable for an extended period of time. Same with Upton, Rasmus, etc. Not saying we'll get one of those guys, just that Hahn doesn't mention cost. Yes I meant controllable. But controllable probably meaning more then trying to signing someone to longer contract for being younger. I'm guessing what Hahn is wanting is younger with controlled years before getting to free agency in terms of service time not signing time.

Alexei Ramirez would still like to play for #WhiteSox. But he's also set to meet w/ 2 other interested teams today. https://t.co/Ysvm4M1vNT https://twitter.com/CSNHayes/status/664172192201113600

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Nov 9, 2015 -> 08:25 PM) I'd really like Marcell Ozuna. I have no idea if he's available or not, but I'd trade Avi and someone else for him. Other clubs say #Marlins are floating Marcell Ozuna's name but only want to deal him for a No. 2-type starter. Tough sell after last year https://twitter.com/jaysonst/status/663842494350774272

So anyone think sox will make a trade or do something during the gm meetings

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Nov 9, 2015 -> 06:33 PM) Can we stop sharing these fluff pieces? More specifically, Cubs Sox trade ones? It just gets people mad for no reason. It's just writers trying to make something out of team needs to write a story. Sadly this is the only thing being talked about for the sox. No other news

Mark Buehrle has not retired yet, according to his agent, Jeff Berry, who is at GM meetings. Still possible Buehrle pitches in 2016. https://twitter.com/jonmorosi/status/663773659639767040

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Nov 9, 2015 -> 09:16 AM) Even if he did, I'd prefer that to an Olt/Saladino platoon. OK but giving up a bunch of prospects would be stupid if that's the case

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Nov 9, 2015 -> 09:12 AM) The Sox should go after Plouffe now. I think Plouffe would turn into dunn for the sox. Already there with low average, doesn't v walk alot and strikes out at least 100 times.
