Real Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I don't see how the Astros can beat what we got for Eaton without including Bregman, by looking at their minor league player rankings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigsoxhurt35 Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Not much other than what we know. Astros need that last piece and have the prospects to get Quintana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxfest Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 (edited) QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 06:27 PM) I was optimistic. I let everyone talk me into the rebuild. Now I fully expect to be disappointed. This is still better than treading water for 75 wins a year last few years. Rebuild off too a great start, Sox finally have picked a lane.

So, at worst, we're no worse off than we were before. Except, we're likely to be a lot worse, which is better for the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFutureIsNear Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 (edited) Astros have a ton of hitting prospects. Don't know how their system wouldn't excite anyone, with or without Bergman. Tucker Reed Cameron Teoscar Hernandez Derek Fisher Ramon Laureano Garrett Stubbs If we can get any 3 of those position players + any 1 of Martes, Whitley, Paulino, Musgrove, or Franklin Perez I'm a happy camper honestly. Realistic offer? Tucker, Reed, Laureano/Stubbs and Paulino/Perez? Pick your preference on the last 2.

iamshack Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 (edited) I honestly think the Quintana deal would be done if the Sox were willing to back off Bregman. I think the Stros need to offer him up or they aren't getting Q. Edited December 8, 2016 by iamshack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quintana should return nearly the same value as sale did, especially due to the fourth year of control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
