It seems like most Sox fans on Twitter are so sensitive and uptight about everything. A person on there blocked me because I called Nate Jones mediocre...lol.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Dec 4, 2015 -> 12:24 PM) Dan Hayes ‏@CSNHayes 42s42 seconds ago Sounds like Jacob Turner is healthy and goes to camp with a shot at #WhiteSox rotation. Rotation? What? What about EJ or Danks?

I've said it before and I'll say it again - trading Sale now is a terrible idea.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Dec 4, 2015 -> 11:08 AM) What about a splash of Lawrie+Reddick? Don't know what we would send over there but I believe both have 2 years remaining. How about LaRoche and Danks for them?

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Dec 4, 2015 -> 08:10 AM) Avi, LaRoche, Danks. Man, all 3 of these guys have been mentioned in proposed trades that bring back useful parts. You guys are smoking some nice bud. LMAO. I was thinking the same thing. Those 3 have literally no value whatsoever.

I wonder if the Rockies would accept a deal that involved Montas for McMahon straight up.

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Dec 4, 2015 -> 07:39 AM) Which is why we should scout and do due diligence on the 3b arenado is blocking. Arenados War was 4.5 so let's not over hype him. Are you referring to Ryan McMahon?

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Dec 3, 2015 -> 10:12 PM) Trades for Lawrie White Sox get: Brett Lawrie As get: Erik Johnson and Thaddius Lowry Trades for CarGo and DJ LeMahieu White Sox get: CarGo and LeMahieu Rockies get: Frankie Montas, Adam LaRoche, Carlos Sanchez and Avi Garcia Bold trade prediction White Sox trade Jose Quintana to the Dodgers White Sox get: Joc Pederson, Jose DeLeon and Austin Barnes Dodgers get: Jose Quintana Then after Hahn makes a flurry of trades, signs two pitchers: Doug Fister 3 years $36 million Trevor Cahill 1 year $4.5 million plus incentives (Coop'll fix him) Ok let's see how bad I get crucified If the White Sox sign Doug freaking Fister to a 3 year deal at $12 million a year, Hahn should be fired on the spot.

I'd want more than just Joc if Q was going the other way.

Jake Lamb or Brandon Drury are also a couple of options that could be headed the Sox way if they make a deal with Arizona.

f*** Samardzija.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Dec 3, 2015 -> 08:14 PM) In terms of ceiling, it goes Bryant, Russell, Baez, Schwarber. You rank Russell and Baez ahead of Schwarber? Interesting.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Dec 3, 2015 -> 08:09 PM) For me, sending him to the north side, it starts with Russell. I'd also be content with Bryant or Schwarber.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Dec 3, 2015 -> 08:06 PM) Ignoring the merits of such a deal, Quintana is probably my favorite Sox player right now, and I will root for him wherever he goes if we trade him, but man it would really suck to see him in red and blue. Agreed, but seeing Addison Russell as the White Sox shortstop for the foreseeable future would be pretty sweet too.

Who I want in a perfect world - Nolan Arenado Who I think they might trade for if they decide to go "all in" - Todd Frazier Who they would most likely trade for if they are going to make a deal - Brett Lawrie Who will most likely be the third baseman on Opening Day - Mike Olt or Tyler Saladino

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Dec 3, 2015 -> 05:07 PM) I was kinda wondering about something along the lines of CarGo for LaRoche/ Montas/ low level ML player. Melky goes to DH, CarGo to LF and Thompson/Avi/Shuck in RF. I like this idea. *slow clap*

Another factor that hasn't been discussed much is that it could be possible to deal Avila/Navarro at the deadline as rentals if the Sox are out of it by then.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Dec 3, 2015 -> 11:40 AM) No I will not. Catch all's are not tolerated on this site. They are a detriment to healthy discussion and make it more difficult for people to read the site. I'm sorry for offending you. I apologize.

Can you please open up the offseason plan thread again while you're at it?

$1.5 million seems like a lot for him IMO.

That 2013 team was so bad haha.

Here's the same question we've heard a million times already when talking about acquiring a second baseman...what happens to Johnson and Sanchez if the Sox do get someone else?

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Dec 3, 2015 -> 08:38 AM) Who needs Dwayne Allen when you have Zach Miller? I was actually debating whether I should have picked up Miller in my fantasy league when Jimmy Graham got hurt lol.

I'd like to pick up Petit to replace Scott Carroll.

There were 53 stolen bases against Flowers last season? Good lord...
