Bob Sacamano

If they end up trading him by August, they likely settled on "best offer" not necessarily meaning a team is giving them what they wanted in the off-season. Of course, there is still time for him to right his season. At this point, I'm starting to think he gets moved next trade deadline (2018). Prove me wrong Q and Hahn.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ May 31, 2017 -> 07:38 AM) Keeping Quintana doesn't make any sense. They need the prospects that they will ultimately get in return for him. People keep talking about 2019 but the Sox don't have many long-term answers as far as position players go. Where are those guys coming from? They are banking on Moncada, Anderson, Robert, and Collins. What if a couple of them bust though? They need to keep adding. Quintana will need a new contract by the time the Sox are good again so I just don't think keeping him makes any sense and I also don't know how this team is playoff ready in 2019. Yeah and evwn if those guys are ready in 2019, its no sure thing they will be grrat right away.

QUOTE (bmags @ May 30, 2017 -> 04:18 PM) I don't want to get my hopes up. This is the guy I decided I want. The Sox have been successful the last 3 years of getting the guy I want in the first round lol don't stop now boys!

QUOTE (ptatc @ May 30, 2017 -> 03:08 PM) It wasn't a beanball, he hit him in the hip. Next time don't stand and admire your homerun. Pitchers don't like that. What ye sow so shall ye reap. The one you can make a legit case of him waiting to see if its going to go foul or not as it was right down the line. But still, 3 years later. You wanna show him up? Get him out. Don't plunk him when you're down 3.

QUOTE (bmags @ May 30, 2017 -> 02:17 PM) Feels like we are weeks away from a David Ortiz comeback. I can see it lol

QUOTE (balfanman @ May 29, 2017 -> 12:14 PM) I agree with this. I've always liked Sanchez and thought that he would start hitting in the majors after some struggles. His minor league track record is consistent at each stop. I know Moncada is the hot prospect now and he may well turn out to be good in the majors, but as one who really values strong defense (especially up the middle) I would prefer to leave Sanchez alone and move Moncada to 3rd base or the outfield. I could see this. As long as he has the arm and hopefully his bat plays there.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ May 29, 2017 -> 04:56 PM) Delmonico is bonkersville right now. Only K'ing 16% of the time as well. I'm a big fan of that. Wish there was a spot for him to play right now (Davidson deserves every day at bats at DH/1B/3B).

QUOTE (Brian @ May 28, 2017 -> 04:04 PM) We're the only smart guys here who watch it. Should start our own thread. I watch! Great show.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 29, 2017 -> 10:18 PM) Buster Posey standing at home during the fight is the funniest s*** None of the infielders did anything right away. It was sh!t move to plunk a guy because he hit 2 homers against you in the post-season 3 years ago. Doubt Posey or anyone else really agreed with it.

Can't wait to watch and hope for guys to fall to our way (only watch up until our first pick but still).

......wtf

Noooooo bunting

QUOTE (Knackattack @ May 29, 2017 -> 03:01 PM) Is there a verdict out on Engel yet? Is he just going to be a nice defending 4th OF or does he look like he will hit enough to start? How can we know that after 2 games?

Is there any team that could use Sanchez? It sucks he doesn't really profile as a SS or 3B to be a reserve.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 28, 2017 -> 07:29 PM) The problem is Fulmer looks more like Addison Reed than Benintendi or Happ, lol. You can throw 92-94 without impeccable location anymore as a starter...you have to be 95-98 or have remarkable movement. Hopefully Hansen and Dunning compensate for the inconsistency/struggles at the AA and AAA level, other than Kopech. No Collins today, btw. What

QUOTE (SCCWS @ May 28, 2017 -> 08:12 AM) inst I hope not. Boston is really hot right now and obviously Sale is dominating the league. I think Q gets a better shot to improve his numbers against one of their weak starters. ? The only number he could improve is "W".

Play him everday.

If it were up to Rick Hahn, Holland and Gonzalez would be traded probably in next few weeks but it takes 2 to tango.

QUOTE (Nardiwashere @ May 26, 2017 -> 12:53 PM) So who pitches Monday and Tuesday? Price vs. Q and Sale vs. Pelfry? I'm pretty sure Pelfrey is pitching today.

QUOTE (Sleepy Harold @ May 26, 2017 -> 11:39 AM) Dan Hayes @CSNHayes 7s #WhiteSox place Dylan Covey on the 10-day DL, recall Juan Minaya and add Tyler Danish as the 26th man for today's doubleheader. Figured they would look to add 2 fresh arms to the team.

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ May 25, 2017 -> 06:10 PM) Check out this highway robbery trade I pulled off, most of which was the original trade offered to me.... I traded away.... SP Michael Fulmer (17.0 PPG) OF Marcell Ozuna (3.3 PPG) SS Chris Owings (3.1 PPG) for... SP Lance McCullers (15.9 PPG) CL Kenley Jansen (6.9 PPG) 3B Manny Machado (2.9 PPG) OF Michael Conforto (4.4 PPG) He offered that trade, but asked for Trea Turner. I said I didn't want to move Turner, so he said he would take Ozuna instead (uh, duh). And then I told I didn't want Adam Duvall, I wanted a SP instead, and said I would take any of McCullers, Porcello, or Vargas. I can't believe he didn't give me Vargas, and instead let me have McCullers. The crazy part is that this guy I traded with was 5-0 in our league so far, and he's always in the playoffs for our baseball, hockey, and football leagues, so it was especially strange that someone like him would offer that trade. Wow do you play in a league with morons? That's disgusting how one-sided that is. Machado having a down year I would never include in that deal.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 25, 2017 -> 06:42 PM) Junior Noboa...obviously the junior part is the easier match, haha. And he keeps on...godspeed Caulfield...godspeed.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 25, 2017 -> 01:14 PM) Yes. Name cereals....Caulfield: Captain Crunch, Cocoa Puffs, Rice Krispies, Fruity Pepples, pepples reminds me of the Flintstones, which brings me to the question do you know the difference between people in Dubai and people in Abu Dhabi? People in Dubai don't like the Flintstones. People in Abu Dhabi do. Lmfao

QUOTE (daggins @ May 25, 2017 -> 06:09 PM) Counterpoint - whatever they would have gotten then, it will be less now, and even less in the offseason. Maybe. And I know people will say just keep him then but to me that's pointless. If the best move is to keep him, extend him. Although, like i said earlier, we are 2 months away from the deadline and I think his value will be where it was at going into the season.
