November 8, 20169 yr QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Nov 8, 2016 -> 11:58 AM) Nate Jones is far more valuable than Eduardo Rodriguez. See Giles, Ken. And Giles isn't good. Nate is.

November 8, 20169 yr The deadline helped value for relievers. If Boston wants just Jones, start with Devers.
November 8, 20169 yr QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Nov 8, 2016 -> 11:15 AM) The deadline helped value for relievers. If Boston wants just Jones, start with Devers. If we deal Sale or Q to Boston, there is literally no good reason not to include Jones to get back another player or two.

November 8, 20169 yr If I were Hahn I would try to get another team involved in talks for Q and Sale for a three team deal, that's the only way I see them getting the king's ransom they deserve.
November 8, 20169 yr QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Nov 8, 2016 -> 09:53 AM) I'm curious as to which player the Sox must have of the bunch. Devers is a must and so is Kopech. Devers gives us a legit power 3B and Kopech would give us another young top arm to go with Rodon, Fulmer, Burdi and Hansen. I know we wanted Benintendi last draft. Just wonering, why is Kopech a must. He has already been suspended 50 day for taking an illegal substance and fractured his hand in a fight in the dugout w a teammate.

He has already been suspended 50 day for taking an illegal substance and fractured his hand in a fight in the dugout w a teammate. He can throw a 100mph+ as a starter. His fastball ranges from 94-101mph, his slider is in the high 80s and a low 90s changeup. Edited November 8, 20169 yr by Joshua Strong
