December 6, 20169 yr QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 10:36 AM) This. There is a reason they were ok with dealing him. Dude is a dickface I guess bows the time to make public something you've told me privately for years now
December 6, 20169 yr There is a good chance that if you throw out both Kopech and Moncada, that Basabe is the Sox #1 prospect, or damned close to it.
December 6, 20169 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 12:54 PM) He'd be a great closer, because Jesus Saves. You win. I'm serious.
December 6, 20169 yr Just got home from school. WOOOOO!! Great job Hahn. Got the untouchable plus Kopech and 2 more. Wanted Devers as well, so that is disappointing BUT I love it. I'm all on board with this.
December 6, 20169 yr Nationals had the better offer (Robles/Giolito) Currently this is a lopsided trade in the Red Sox's favor. Time will tell.

December 6, 20169 yr These four guys are a great add to a system whose #5 prospect was Charlie Tilson.

December 6, 20169 yr QUOTE (Baron @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 12:58 PM) Moncada and Tim Anderson in the IF...man that's nice That is promising. Time to move the old guys if that's our core going forward.
December 6, 20169 yr BTW the Red Sox just opened a massive hole a 3B. Unless you think Panda is going to fill that hole.

December 6, 20169 yr QUOTE (StrykerSox @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 12:54 PM) Turner hit .342 in significant big league action. Moncada was sixty points shy of that in the minors. I know BA is kinda lame, buy isn't that just too stark to ignore? A lot of his success came against the sorry Braves. Raw Latin American prospects vs. more polished collegiate hitters drafted in the first round, hard to make comparisons. And Turner was never available, from all reports. Considering Harper will walk in two years, that's understandable enough.

December 6, 20169 yr Moncada is what arguably a solid spring training away from the majors at best and a half a season of AAA from the majors. What's the deal with Kopech how far away is his arrival to the MLB? Also I know he throws heat but does he project as a starter or reliever? What's his best secondary pitches?

December 6, 20169 yr QUOTE (Deadpool @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 12:57 PM) I'll have what he's having. This is a great package for Sale. Pass it this way when you're done dude. I too think this is a great package for Sale. I'm so happy right now. Not to be a gluttonous piggy but, Rick Hahn, who's next?

I wouldn't put him over Fulmer and he's probably not as good a hitter as Collins. He didn't do that great in A ball this past season.
December 6, 20169 yr QUOTE (Baron @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 12:59 PM) BTW the Red Sox just opened a massive hole a 3B. Unless you think Panda is going to fill that hole. He fills many holes, just not that one.
December 6, 20169 yr QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 01:00 PM) Saw a tweet earlier that that is a possibility With Shaw gone they really have no one else.
December 6, 20169 yr You can understand why they had to keep Devers...certainly can't rely on Sandoval there long-term, if at all.
December 6, 20169 yr Okay trade, should have gotten benintendi too or gone with a different team offer instead
December 6, 20169 yr QUOTE (hi8is @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 12:55 PM) I guess bows the time to make public something you've told me privately for years now LOL.
