QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 02:30 PM) Why is Bruce getting all this buzz while there's been basically nothing on Melky? Seems like Cabrera is arguably the better player, surprised there haven't been more rumors on him. Melky is a nice all around player. Would be a complimentary player for a team. Bruce is a run producing bat that can help put you over. Unfortunately hes not a good fielder. I would think melky would have interest. Hes been the most consistent hitter for the sox.

dodgers talking about archer and/or moore from TB, as @jaysonst @Ken_Rosenthal said. not much Sale talk around LAD lately https://twitter.com/JonHeyman/status/759805621571059712

Was told the same as @Ken_Rosenthal: No trade happening with Cody Bellinger and Alex Verdugo, two Dodgers prospects out of their AA lineup. https://twitter.com/JeffPassan/status/759804716826128385

So are they pulled or just randon day off lol

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 12:21 PM) See, this is where I get confused...we hear that we're asking for too much when we ask for Urias/Bellinger/Verdugo in a Sale or Q deal...but then you talk about Bellinger and Verdugo for Bruce? It seems like there is a rapidly diminishing point of returns or something... Maybe just days off for Verdugo and bellinger but cant be parts for bruce. Those guys are top 100 prospects. There was talk of dodgers with lucroy and also reddick/hill.

Opinion is Charlie Tilson definitely can handle CF. "Speed player that can run the ball down." Average over power. https://twitter.com/CSNHayes/status/759793980003475456

Heard from pair of scouts that Charlie Tilson has plus speed, is a good defender with discipline at plate. Bat is the question. #WhiteSox https://twitter.com/CSNHayes/status/759792804495261696

If my info is correct and Tilson is activated, I assume this means the JB Schuck era on the South Side has come to a completion #WhiteSox https://twitter.com/barstoolWSD/status/759791110248017920

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 09:55 AM) Lucroy vetoed the trade wow!! Jonathan Lucroy has exercised his no-trade clause and vetoed trade from #Brewers to Indians. Details to come. https://twitter.com/Haudricourt/status/759763826631905280

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 09:53 AM) yeah they are definitely trading more the purge: white sox edition is in effect for the next 29 hours. stay indoors... upgrade your security systems... and for the love of god, arm yourself! I know im ready for the purge lol

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 09:49 AM) Yeah, the thing with Duke is, he is one of the guys you don't have to move just to move...because you're going to need pen arms next year and he would be just as attractive at next year's deadline as this year's (if not more). Maybe they actually like this guy, because there was no reason to give Duke away.

https://t.co/koyvMMDrtC has Charlie Tilson as the No. 12 prospect in the St. Louis system. #WhiteSox https://t.co/vEWfzEJnSM https://twitter.com/CSNHayes/status/759761417067257856

Sox fans by the millions wait for Charlie Tilson to come around https://twitter.com/keithlaw/status/759760536254963712

Tilson, a Wilmette native and New Trier H.S. grad, was rated by Baseball America as the Fastest Baserunner in the STL organization in '13. https://twitter.com/whitesox/status/759760283732680704

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 08:43 AM) I'd deal Sale now and look into dealing Quintana in the offseason. The big difference between these two guys is stuff and the potential to dominate a playoff game or series. As good as Q is, if I needed a starter for a one game playoff (as the Red Sox would at the moment), it's going to be hands down Sale. The same goes for any playoff series, as Sale simply has the stuff to carry a team in October. The idea of having Sale for four post-season runs has to be incredibly attractive to the Red Sox as it fits perfect with their core of position players. Quintana, on the other hand, is the definition of durable/reliable top of the rotation starter. While he would no doubt help a team in the playoffs, his value is in his ability to greatly help a team get there. With an extra year of control and ever more team friendly contract, there should be plenty of interest in him from both large and small market teams. I would rather have as many suitors as possible, including the losers in the Sale sweepstakes, bidding on him. That requires dealing him in the offseason. Not against dealing him now if blown away, but I think you're better off putting teams against one another for Sale than having teams competing for two similar assets. The idea there can only be one winner should drive up the return. Wasnt trying to say let teams bidding for both players. Was saying when there is a bidding war for sale them and who ever loses hopefully they go for Quintana next. Yes more teams can bid in off season but sox are treating Quintana as ace as well the as they should so probably most teams wont have the resources to get him. Its going to be a limited market on both

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 30, 2016 -> 09:28 PM) Vazquez is indeed a wonderful pitch framer but I feel like Soxtalk will hate him for his hitting Flowers 2.0 lol

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 08:35 AM) I wouldn't. You'd still need top end pitching talent. This is what I would do. Sale and Robertson to the Red Sox for Moncada, Benintendi, Swihart, Devers, Kopech, and Basabe. (Drive up price because Yankees now have the pieces to get a Sale trade done). Quintana to the Dodgers for Urias, De Leon, Holmes, and Calhoun. Farm system rebuilt. Not sure if you get urias for Quintana. Its been sorta reported they might forr sale but not sure the same for Quintana

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 08:38 AM) Could the Sox theoretically have the best farm system in baseball in 30 hours if they wanted to? Depends if team start caving and up the ante for players on the sox

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 08:36 AM) I agree, but I value those other 3 higher than Sanchez. Yes but sanchez is a catcher the sox desperately need. They tried to get him before. He will be high on their list

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 08:18 AM) From the Yankees, I think Frazier, Severino, and Bird are must gets in any Chris Sale deal. Sanchez has to be in there

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jul 31, 2016 -> 08:26 AM) This is Andrew Miller trade is great news for us on the Sale front. First off, the Indians are now loaded and arguably the best team in the AL. With their pitching staff, I know I wouldn't face them in the playoffs. That has to motivate other contenders like the Red Sox, Rangers, & Astros to improve their clubs. Second, the Yankees have stacked their farm system with the Chapman & Miller trades. A deal built around Frazier (#21), Mateo (#19) or Torres (#27), Sanchez (#36), & Judge (#42) would be incredibly attractive to us. So not only do we now have another bidder in the mix who has the pieces to make Sale deal happen, this same team is also the biggest rival for the organization that we'd most like to make a deal with in the Red Sox. I know some posters here like to pretend rivalries shouldn't matter, but the reality is they do. Imagine how much the Red Sox fanbase would meltdown if the Yankees, not legit even playoff contenders, landed one of the favorites for the AL Cy Young today or tomorrow. This is the exact scenario we were hoping for all along, two teams desperately competing against one another for the same player. All we need is one of them to do something stupid. Not saying it's going to happen, but we're in a much better spot today than we were yesterday. Honestly ship one of each sale and q to one and the other. Who ever loses out on sale can have Quintana. The sox should be able to rebuild very quick

BTW: after getting Torres/Frazier/Sheffield add to strong prospect base, #Yankees have pieces for Sale if #whitesox move him now/offseason https://twitter.com/Joelsherman1/status/759740753442664448 This might start bidding war for boston and yankees. Yankee were already interested in sale before and could really put them in contention with the prospects they just got
