QUOTE (ewokpelts @ Dec 9, 2015 -> 08:11 AM) Laroche is a born again idiot that said he's not here to play the game,but to spread the gospel. No dickf***, you are getting paid 25 million to hit a f***ing baseball. Once he said that crap, I wanted him gone in a flash. umadbro?

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Dec 9, 2015 -> 08:10 AM) Garcia and Lawrie put up very similar power numbers last year. .257/13/59 for Garcia, .260/16/60 for Lawrie The difference is that Lawrie played half his games at a pitchers park and he also plays a more important position on the field.

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Dec 9, 2015 -> 07:59 AM) Which is why they shouldn't get Reddick. Another rent? Lord help us. Yea, yea, they'll extend him, they'll flip him...and they never do either. The clown gming has got to stop. See how the Cubs did it -they actually had a deal worked out for Castro before submitting the bid for Zobrist. Why do you always criticize other people's ideas, yet you never throw anything out there yourself? I don't get it.

I wouldn't mind picking up Josh Reddick either, assuming they can extend him relatively cheaply.

I don't see Danish/May/Beck/Guerrero having any future in the big leagues so I'm fine if they're the ones that will be traded.

I would be so happy if Avi was somehow involved in this.

QUOTE (Real @ Dec 9, 2015 -> 06:06 AM) I hope not I'm not really going to be opposed to the deal unless the Sox give up something substantial. Lawrie will be an upgrade at third base no matter how he plays next year so it's hard for me to be mad at this deal.

Is this official yet?

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Dec 8, 2015 -> 08:35 PM) Holy s*** AZ gave up some serious talent! I did not think Miller could bring that type of a haul. Wow. This is exactly why Q should be placed on the block. The return for him could change the direction of the franchise.

Q for Seager and Barnes. What would y'all say to that?

As much as I hate to say it, Quintana needs to be put on the block now. The return for Miller (who isn't even as good as Q IMO) is amazing.

f***...I wanted Inciarte on the Sox.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Dec 8, 2015 -> 07:15 PM) I don't think they had a backup infielder. Ryan is a solid backup with plus defense. Baez? Alcantara? Coghlan? Am I missing something?

That trade literally makes no sense for the Cubs... Cahill is better than Warren, so Warren is useless, and why would they acquire another infielder if they just traded one away and signed another one? I don't get it.

Cubs got robbed...I love it.

Please please please go to the Cubs!!!

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 8, 2015 -> 03:11 PM) Not going to freak out if Upton goes elsewhere. Cespedes still makes the most sense due to the lack of pick attached to him. This. If the Sox insist on going after a guy with a QO attached, I hope that it's Heyward.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Dec 8, 2015 -> 12:19 PM) We're not trading for Fernandez. We don't have enough for him anyway, unless we counterintuitively traded Sale, or included Abreu. This thread was made to discuss the other teams trading for Fernandez, since PHT now includes general rumors. You've been here long enough to know that every thread on here ends with us talking about the Sox.

QUOTE (dpd9189 @ Dec 8, 2015 -> 12:14 PM) There would be more than just Rodon. If it was only Rodon I'd pack his bags and drive him to O'Hare right now. Can you explain why? I'd personally keep Rodon if it was a 1 for 1 deal for Fernandez. JoFer is more dominant when he's pitching, but the problem is that he's never pitching because he's always injured.

It won't happen, but imagine if he came to the Sox and what the rotation would look like afterwards? Sale/Fernandez/Quintana/Rodon/Fulmer Wow.

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Dec 8, 2015 -> 12:07 PM) If I was trading with the White Sox, Anderson, Montas, Adams and Fulmer would be all I really wanted. So no surprise here. If you had the last say, would you trade those 4 guys for Arenado? I probably wouldn't.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 8, 2015 -> 11:22 AM) The Sox have control of Sale though 2019. With the nagging fear of serious injury, and the regular nagging injuries keeping that have followed him around annually, I wouldn't be looking to extend him unless it was incredibly team friendly with options. What nagging injuries has he had?

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Dec 8, 2015 -> 11:57 AM) Didn't know we won the WS in 2012. This made me laugh.

Motte was actually pretty decent for the Cubs so I'm glad that he's gone.

This could be out of the box, but what if the Sox signed Chris Davis to play third base? That would be interesting to say the least.
