QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Feb 22, 2017 -> 12:09 PM) Starting to doubt Robertson will have more value at the deadline. Teams are more desperate at the deadline but by then Robertson will only be a 2-3 month rental. As others have pointed out, Robertson right now is not in the same tier that Chapman, Miller and Giles were at the time of their trades so we can't really use those trades to try and gauge Robertson's current value. If my doubts are correct then trading Robertson now would be the preferred time and allow Jones to become the closer with hopes of boosting his value even more for the July deadline. It's a risk a rebuilding team like the Sox can take. Robertson is controlled through 2018 I believe.

I've seen an excessive number of Cubs clothing items today and it's bugging me.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 21, 2017 -> 12:10 PM) Why dabble in things that have no bearing on reality? What?

QUOTE (raBBit @ Feb 21, 2017 -> 10:57 AM) Rafael Devers would have no place in trade conversations for Frazier. Not even if the White Sox took on Sandoval's entire salary?

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Feb 21, 2017 -> 11:41 AM) There is no doubt that you are a teenager lol. I hope that term goes away soon Lol. It's just the most recent of a long list of words that really have no meaning whatsoever.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Feb 21, 2017 -> 11:31 AM) Well that would never happen, but cool post anyway. Did I say it would happen? Can you tell me what Rick Hahn is having for dinner next Thursday if you can tell the future?

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Feb 21, 2017 -> 10:14 AM) Would Beer go 1.1 in the 2017 draft? http://www.baseballamerica.com/draft/ask-b...semsrz5p10dK.97 Pretty much notes Beers value lies entirely in his bat, and historically bat only players don't go 1.1 I don't care if he's worse than Avi in the field. The Sox have to take him if he's on the board when it's their turn to pick. His bat is special.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Feb 21, 2017 -> 10:15 AM) They won't trade Soto for Robertson. They would if they really wanted to win in the window in which they have Harper. Soto is 18 years old...

It would be great if the Pelicans took out the Warriors in the 1st round.

QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Feb 21, 2017 -> 09:43 AM) @jaysonst White Sox have been looking for a catcher. Derek Norris or Pedro Severino could be potential fits. https://twitter.com/jaysonst/status/834065821940981760 Derek Norris? I don't see how he fits what the Sox are doing at all. Is he a good pitch framer?

QUOTE (Sleepy Harold @ Feb 21, 2017 -> 09:40 AM) Jayson Stark @jaysonst 32s A team that has been talking with the White Sox says they've been waiting for Nats to sign Wieters to rekindle David Robertson trade talks Lit.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Feb 21, 2017 -> 09:35 AM) Who says no? WAS receives: David Robertson CWS receives: Pedro Severino, plus one of Jose Marmolejos-Diaz or Rafael Bautista I've never heard of Diaz or Bautista, so I hope the Sox would say no unless I just need to educate myself on the Nationals system.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Feb 21, 2017 -> 09:24 AM) Agreed, he's likely expendable. But like I said above, I'm not sure he was the hangup in a deal. Probably not, but he's a logical piece for the Sox. I don't know how much better he is than Narvaez, but another body isn't a bad thing. He's supposed to be good defensively at the very least.

I'd be almost certain now that Severino would be involved in a Robertson package if a trade did happen.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Feb 21, 2017 -> 07:11 AM) They signed Geovany Soto. He's better than AJ. Let's be real here, both aren't exactly what they used to be. Lol.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Feb 21, 2017 -> 08:16 AM) I heard Avisail Garcia is in the best shape of his life. I'm shocked. I've never heard anyone else say that before.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Feb 19, 2017 -> 02:24 PM) I'd love to have him but it's hard to accomplish. They can't just start dumping guys just to get Seth Beer Trading Q before the season starts would be a big boost for a potential #BeerRun.

Beer is so good. The Sox need to do whatever possible to get him.

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Feb 18, 2017 -> 01:20 AM) Miley, you're the son I always wanted but never had. Hey. Been meaning to ask you, did you draw your avatar? That's really good dude. Much better than the stick figures I'm capable of drawing. Aw. But no, my sister drew it for me for my birthday. I have no artistic ability whatsoever but she's really good. She was only 13 when she drew it too, she's even better now. Thanks for the nice comment.

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Feb 17, 2017 -> 07:13 PM) Lol, looks like Lawrie to me. Lol

Lol why is Adam Dunn on the banner?

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 17, 2017 -> 03:31 PM) Micah Jones commits to Notre Dame. He goes to my alma mater, I've seen him pay and he's a 4 star recruit. I hate saying this about high school kids, but he is awful. He's afraid of contact, a coach told me that, and won't fight for balls. When I heard he was a 4 star recruit, I was dumbfounded. He's big and could get good, but I just don't see the work ethic from him. I know him. He's a nice enough guy, so I'm happy for him. He's absolutely massive in person.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Feb 17, 2017 -> 01:20 PM) 1. Shields 2. Gonzalez 3. Holland 4. Free agent signing. 5. Covey SOMEONE has to be decent enough to flip in the 1-4 slots, right? RIGHT!? If that rotation pitched a full season, I'd bet that would be the worst team in MLB history.

On the bright side, no Rodon means the odds of getting Beer just went up a lot more, but I love Carlos and hope he's fully healthy.
