Love this idea ^. I think a huge Q and Abreu package makes so much sense for both teams. Rodgers and some of their other big prospects are totally blocked by that infield and outfield logjam.

 

Plus Q with 4 cheap years of control is consistent with their window.

Q and Abreu for Rogers/Dahl and mid- level MiLB pitcher?

Rodgers or Dahl, or Rodgers AND Dahl?

 

No way they trade both players

Man, if Quintana was underrated here, it would probably be even worse in Colorado with the Coors effect on his numbers.

I'm thinking Rogers and Dahl if the Rockies wanted both Q and Abreu. If that doesn't fly with the Rockies then I wish them well in their search because in the end, it would be better for the Sox to trade Q and Abreu in separate deals anyway.

 

Just a fun thought while we wait for the next trade.

Would anyone do Q for Clint Frazier & Torres?

Yesterday morning, I would have said that I think that that offer is too light but now I don't know what to expect lol

I think you would take that. Having said that, I'd like to get a hold of Bird.

Yes, Torres is going to be a top 5 prospect in baseball. I really don't think the Yankees will be selling their farm right now though.

Having 4 of the top 30 prospects in baseball would be an amazing start to a rebuild, although I don't see the Yankees being interested in trading their future away

 

If I can't get very close to the same value for Sale as Quintana (especially with 4 years of cheap control) then I won't trade him

 

 

Would anyone do Q for Clint Frazier & Torres?

 

It would be hilarious if the Yankees gave up two top prospects for a former prospect that they just let walk

In a heartbeat. But it seems NY is attempting a different approach with holding onto prospects at this point.

The Yankees farm system is so stacked. I could see them being an excellent team in 3-4 years at this rate coupled with a few free agent signings

Add in Tate and Torrens.

Reading this made me sad that we've squandered two Top 10 WAR pitchers.

 

Oh well....SELL!

Add in Tate and Torrens.

How about Frazier, Rutherford and Tate?

They don't have the pitching. Truthfully, I think they have enough bats to compete this year, but their pitching is so bad that it doesn't matter. Quintana makes sense for them. I just don't think a trade can work out. The Sox would need Torres in a deal like that and I don' think the do it. They would prob offer Judge/Rutherford and I don't think Hahn accepts that either.

How about Frazier, Rutherford and Tate?

 

Done, but I love Rutherford. I still think there'd be a fourth piece a la Diaz.

Quintana was on that "Sox on the Beach" trip with Ron Kittle and Harold Barnes and apparently just left early

Hahn on MLB Network talked about Kopech being part of the front of the rotation with Rodon someday. No mention of Q. It's going to happen, just a matter of when.

 

You would think they established names available with Sale, so they can get a deal done sooner than later.

Wasn't sure about a fourth piece given the names I threw out there but I'll happily take that fourth piece. Are you talking about Andy Diaz?

Victor, from the Sale deal.

There will be teams interested in a guy with 4 years of control who weren't going to make the play for Sale, and teams will give up a different type of prospect for Quintana. You're less likely to get the #1 prospect in baseball for Quintana because he's not going to go out and win you game 1, 4, and 7 of the World Series. You might be more likely to get 3 guys in the top 50 for him because he'll help get you to the world series and he gets games 2 and 5 once you're there.
