Ramos got $12.5 mill over 2 years with potential to make up to $18.5. I would have offered a bit more guaranteed money to get him in.

QUOTE (HeGone7 @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 08:27 PM) Is this true? I was watching mlbnetwork and I believe what they said was this was the offer from Saturday from Boston. I may have misunderstood, I'll say that, but I'm pretty sure that was what they said. They've been talking for a few days supposedly. Since the weekend I mean.

QUOTE (Middle Buffalo @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 08:21 PM) ??? Is he bald? I guess the poster doesn't realize bizarro is opposite haha

QUOTE (RaySox @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 07:48 PM) MLBN saying the Nationals and White Sox are still a good fit: Quintana, Eaton I want them dealt separately or with Robertson attached to either.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 07:43 PM) Future Rotation: Rodon Giolito Fulmer Kopech Hansen =Profit When you try to predict rotations/lineups years in advance, it never turns out that way ha

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 06:28 PM) To be fair, Frazier has played plenty of 1B, especially in Cincy Probably better than Abreu defensively too.

QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 04:52 PM) Or acquire extra money to go all in on Otani next winter. He won't be a restricted free agent I thought.

Does Basabe go by his middle-name? I see he has a twin bro with the same first name but different middle name.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 03:48 PM) I remember when he got drafted, this board was ecstatic that he fell to them. Chris, you were one crazy SOB, but damn you were fun to watch and you'll be missed. I'll actually cheer for the Red Sox to win now. I thought about that too. Don't really want Red Sox to win. Might just cheer for him to win a Cy Young and then win with whatever team he signs with after this current deal (if its Red Sox, then f*** it).

QUOTE (bmags @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 03:47 PM) Going to pull this out because its interesting in its own right. Thought Moncada was becoming a much better 3b than 2b. Makes sense. And if he ends up out-growing the position, then he moves to third.

QUOTE (aboz56 @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 03:39 PM) Thanks for the contributions, Chris. You were my seventh favorite White Sox pitcher behind Mark Buehrle, Jon Garland, Jose Contreras, Freddy Garcia, El Duque and Bobby Jenks. Savage.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 03:44 PM) Man did that guy on that message board nail the Sale deal or what? LOL just thought about that link that was posted and not too long a deal was struck We all have to follow that thread to see if he posts anything else.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 03:37 PM) I am just not a fan of the Rangers system. Gallo yuck. Profar has like 3 years of control and has Boras as his agent. I'd be all for a Mazara package though. Really sucks that the 2 years Profar spent on the DL counted towards his service time. Otherwise he would definitely be interesting.

QUOTE (2005thxfrthmmrs @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 03:36 PM) Voted Benintendi. The cliche here is time will tell. But for now, even Red Sox fans were relieved that they gave up Moncada, not Benintendi. High ceiling but lower floor is Moncada. It probably has more to do with the fact Benintendi came up and hit good and Moncada came up and struggled. Fans tend to overreact to small sample sizes (as seen here a lot yesterday).

Sale, thanks for being a boss on the mound. It sucks it's come to having to trade you since KW/Hahn/Jerry couldn't put a competent offense/defense on the field behind you.

QUOTE (Tony @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 03:21 PM) That is the way it should work, correct. Does it every time? I think so, yes.

QUOTE (Tony @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 03:18 PM) DD talking about the trade now, only brings up Hahn's name, never mentions Williams. Just a note. Well Hahn is the one that is going to be communicating to DD and other GMs.

QUOTE (Tony @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 02:52 PM) What, too much work for you?? @BNightengale The #WhiteSox getting besieged with calls now for Jose Quintana, but the Sox are expected to step back, catch breath, before dealing him They have to take a break to reload on coffee and food.

QUOTE (shipps @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 02:59 PM) I am actually on system overload right now with trying to keep up with 10 different threads at one time because every thread has breaking news. Not sure I have ever seen anything quite like this on ST. Me too lol it makes me look busy at work though with all the clicking and typing.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 02:52 PM) I would very much be interested in going after Gomez if I were the White Sox, now that they have moved Sale. Fills a need, doesn't matter if he's terrible, if he gets a 2 year deal then he could be tradeable if he can recover somewhat. I want him as well.

QUOTE (Tony @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 02:52 PM) What, too much work for you?? @BNightengale The #WhiteSox getting besieged with calls now for Jose Quintana, but the Sox are expected to step back, catch breath, before dealing him Everything is going as planned.

Can't see him being dealt until Fowler and maybe Desmond signs. Probably Gomez as well. Just money in those cases (plus 1 draft pick for the first 2).

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 02:49 PM) What does this exactly mean? The Sox aren't scared in trading him? Sacred not scared lol Edit: it means no one is untouchable

QUOTE (shipps @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 02:45 PM) Has it been mentioned anywhere that the Sawks are paying Moncada's entire salary? Thats what Bernstein reported on the radio. Not salary. Signing bonus. He will make league minimum with us and go the regular control route.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 02:33 PM) I'm not worrying about pitching at all for the future. It's almost always there for us. Now we could have a rotation of: Rodon Fulmer Kopech Hansen Stephens Plus they will likely take another good pitcher in a first or second round in the next couple of drafts.
