Tucker/Martes/Reed/Laureano/Stubbs That is the package I want for Q.

Sean Sears knows no more than any of us. Don't take what he says with any meaning.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jan 6, 2017 -> 05:49 PM) Something to note if they tried for Machado. Moncada could move to CF, while Bregman could go to second. True, but who knows how well Moncada would adjust to a different position. It might be better to keep him in a spot he's comfortable with.

If I felt like the Sox would make a serious run at Machado in a few years, I'd prefer them to get Meadows to lock down CF for the foreseeable future. However, I don't see that as a realistic possibility so I'm hoping they get Bregman and tank hard enough in 2017 to get Seth Beer.

QUOTE (shipps @ Jan 6, 2017 -> 03:46 PM) One good thing about rumors like this is that a lot of the guys start checking on their sources and give updates on what they are hearing once the ball gets rolling like this. Bad thing is that it freaks mike the f*** out. I'm pumped. It's been weeks since any real new rumors came out.

QUOTE (Sleepy Harold @ Jan 6, 2017 -> 03:35 PM) Dan Hayes @CSNHayes now Heard one reason #WhiteSox didn't yet add Geovany Soto to 40-man was to leave space for a possible trade. Makes sense w/ Quintana rumor. hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm OH. MY. GOD!!!!!!!!!!

Under team control through 2020. No risk at all for the Sox which is nice.

Jose Abreu is a very valuable member to this forum.

I'm surprised Adams made the top 10 over Dunning or Stephens.

Hammel, Ross, De La Rosa. Several different options if the Sox go this route.

QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jan 4, 2017 -> 03:24 PM) Statement says a lot more about you than it does about Hawk. Cool.

Hawk Harrelson is the greatest thing since sliced bread and anyone who disagrees with that statement is wrong. End of discussion.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jan 3, 2017 -> 05:34 PM) Best case scenario is the Pirates relent and ship off Meadows for and, Sox draft Seth Beer. That gives you Anderson, Moncada, Meadows, Beer and Collins. Good god.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jan 3, 2017 -> 01:06 PM) As for Melky, I don't see any interest in him right now. Really have to hope being in a contract year brings out the best in him and we can flip him at the deadline for something of value. Good point. The same could be said for Lawrie, Frazier, and Gonzalez. They'll have extra motivation in trying to get a new contract even if the team sucks.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 3, 2017 -> 12:54 PM) Why would said team not just go sign Michael Saunders? Because I think Melky is better and more consistent.

Melky and say $5 million for a guy like Jeimer Candelario who is blocked for the foreseeable future. Obviously the Cubs wouldn't be interested but maybe they could find a different team to work with.

The A's also have Ryon Healy, Renato Nuñez, and Matt Olson but I don't know why they would trade for Q. It wouldn't make any sense.

QUOTE (SouthWallace @ Dec 31, 2016 -> 12:39 PM) ChiSoxFanMike's All Scrub team vs BlackSox13's All Flop team. YIKES. Well done gentlemen.

Skipper: Terry Bevington LOL! I completely forgot about Betemit, Erik Johnson, and Poreda. My team would be lucky to win 25 games in a full season.

Off the top of my head: Catcher - Donny Lucy 1B - Alex Cintron 2B - José Lopez SS - Jeff Keppinger 3B - Mark Teahen RF - Avisail Garcia CF - Pablo Ozuna LF - Blake Tekotte DH - Mark Kotsay Backup IF - Jayson Nix Backup OF - Luis Terrero Utility - Ross Gload Utility - Brent Lillibridge Backup Catcher - Toby Hall SP - Jacob Turner SP - Scott Carroll SP - John Danks SP - Mat Latos SP - Felipe Paulino Long Reliever - D.J.

I like Coats. Especially when it's cold outside and I want to be extra toasty.

QUOTE (Con te Giolito @ Dec 28, 2016 -> 10:24 PM) I've suggested Nate Jones for Yan Gomes a few times.

BlackSox13 brings up an intriguing idea. The Mariners. Lewis/O'Neill/Neidert/Vogelbach/Haniger isn't terrible.

I really think the Cubs could be a great fit for a Q but it will never happen. Thinking about the possibilities is intriguing though.

How would you guys rank the remaining trade chips in order of value? I'd say: 1. Quintana 2. Jones 3. Abreu 4. Robertson 5. Jennings 6. Gonzalez 7. Frazier 8. Melky

QUOTE (Tony @ Dec 28, 2016 -> 06:35 PM) Yeah, I can't figure it out either. How exactly is my original comment pretentious? I'm just calling things how they are and I know other people feel the same way. Perhaps I worded the post wrong but being pretentious wasn't my intention.
