QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jul 25, 2016 -> 10:29 PM) Ugh, giving away outs is bad policy. When your batter is hitting .200 it's not.

Seeing as they have Bogaerts at short for a while and Pedroia locked up for the next 5 years at second, isn't this the type of deal you'd move Moncada in? To get a front of the rotation arm locked up for next 3+ years?

QUOTE (hi8is @ Jul 25, 2016 -> 09:44 PM) They damn well should. Edit: They'd be just a couple games over .500 - likely about 7 out of first and have at least 6 teams in front of them in the wild card. Add to that fact, they'd have about 20 something games against central division teams who they are playing at a ~.200 clip against. Sell, sell, and sell. I want them to as well but you never know with this front office.

If Sox win 2 or 3 against the Cubs and then win 2/3 against the Twins, does anyone here think they will sell? I honestly don't think they trade away anyone.

QUOTE (hi8is @ Jul 25, 2016 -> 06:46 PM) Silly RedSox fans... Lol

QUOTE (Big Hurtin @ Jul 25, 2016 -> 06:11 PM) My 2 cents: I don't think Boston is going to give up what most here think it will take to get Sale. That being said, if they don't, dig in your heels. Don't take a lesser offer when you don't have to. Exactly. The only 2 scenarios are they deal one or the other for a haul (s) or we keep both and try to reload this offseason.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Jul 25, 2016 -> 05:27 PM) Including both of those in a deal for Quintana seems like high. I can see one of them. We'll see how the market plays out. If we don't get one of the young guys on their mlb roster back, we need Moncada and Benintendi back in my opinion.

QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Jul 25, 2016 -> 04:29 PM) Ask and you shall receive. Where are you seeing this? I was listening to the score at work and I forgot who reported it but it was mentioned.

Ranaudo IS getting the start Wednesday now.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 25, 2016 -> 02:40 PM) I don't like Hahn for personal reasons that go all the way back to how he treated people at Harvard Law...but mostly because he has done a pretty lousy job. I don't think Ventura is the best manager for the future of this organization. I have never underrated Sale or Q. The Q package would include Robertson and return Moncada, Benitendi, Kopech, Eduardo Rodriguez and Rusney Castillo with huge cash susidy for remaining dollars on that deal. What?

I hope the Yankees get involved just to drive the Red Sox price up more.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jul 25, 2016 -> 11:46 AM) You are the ultimate downer on this board and I think it's pretty clear at this point you don't like the White Sox. I understand not liking the Sox organization, but your constant underrating of Sox players and love fest towards other teams or players is laughable at best and old schtick at worst. Chris Sale is a HoF pitcher. The Sox aren't taking Pablo f***ing Sandoval back in a deal. Um....he was answering the question of "who do the Red Sox have at third?"

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jul 25, 2016 -> 10:29 AM) It's such that Betts, Moancada, Benintendi and Swihart for Sale/Robertson no longer seems crazy. Replace Betts with Devers and Kopech and I think it's more realistic. I just don't see many contenders subtracting main pieces like Betts (unless they dealt Betts and kept Benintendi to replace Betts with).

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 25, 2016 -> 10:00 AM) That reminds me of tweets from college recruits that are like "can't decide what I want" and people are like OH NO HES DECOMMITTING and he's talking about a drive thru. Except for the fact that this tweet actually mentions the owner of the team's name.

QUOTE (NCsoxfan @ Jul 25, 2016 -> 09:03 AM) Sounds like NYY will get 4 prospects from the Cubs including Torres And McKinney wow. And I saw Warren as a name going back to NY. I bet the Cubs plan on extending Chapman though.

Scares me.. whitesoxdave ‏@barstoolWSD 1h1 hour ago Chicago, IL Up yours Reinsdorf! 1 retweet 21 likes Reply Retweet 1 Like 21 More Hmmm pretty vague but you may be correct.

Why did the Red Sox move Swihart from catcher? I felt like it was because Vazquez was more or a defensive first catcher and still wanted Swihart's bat in the lineup (Red Sox have also had a hole in left field all year thanks to Castillo). Could Swihart still catch on a team with either almost depth (aka: us)?

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 24, 2016 -> 08:42 PM) Yankees Gotcha thanks. The lone tweet was very vague.

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 24, 2016 -> 08:40 PM) There was another tweet saying they're stockpiling SS to make a run at SP in the offseason. Who is stockpiling?

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 24, 2016 -> 08:36 PM) @JoelSherman1 To target SP in offseason or even to consider now if wanted to make a run at someone like Chris Sale. I don't get what this is saying.

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jul 24, 2016 -> 08:02 PM) Moncada doesn't happen without Sale. I think Q gets you 2 of Benintendi, Kopech and Devers, with some one like Swihart and a mid level guy, which I think would be a fair deal for us. What about adding Robertson with Q though? That should max out the deal even more.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 24, 2016 -> 06:58 PM) Fixed it lol. Sorry typo You mean "you think he will fold."

QUOTE (hi8is @ Jul 24, 2016 -> 06:40 PM) Your statements are pretty contradictory, as they read currently. It wasn't just me then.

Just a thought, but if you trade Sale or Q, does that make the value of the other go up as one pitcher is off the market?
