December 7, 20169 yr QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 04:04 PM) Q to the Astros for a slew of young hitters is the logical final move...the Dodgers seem to be closed off as an avenue. Agreed let's hope we finish the Q deal tonight too lol. But don't count a Fraizer and Robertson deal to LA if they miss out on Turner and Their closer. We could get Bellinger Puig vertigo back as part of a package too.
December 7, 20169 yr #3 and #38 prospects in MLB and their 2016 first rounder. Good return, too bad we couldn't get Robles.
December 7, 20169 yr QUOTE (StrykerSox @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 04:03 PM) Pitchers. Great. f*** you, Hahn. The Sox might get 2 TOR starters out of this deal. But, yeah, f*** Hahn.

Giolito, Lopez and Dunning for Eaton Huge haul of arms to the Sox
December 7, 20169 yr How are you guys disappointed that we got the #4 and #38 prospects for Adam Eaton? We sold about as high as possible on him.
December 7, 20169 yr You know guys Q/Rodon/Giolito/lopez/Fulmer could be a pretty good rotation next year. Did EE sign yet?
December 7, 20169 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 04:07 PM) Have fun playing eaton in CF That's what's kind of funny about it. They traded a right field Adam Eaton package for a cf Adam Eaton.
December 7, 20169 yr I like this trade. I think Giolito, Lopez, and Dunning is a good return. Sox got the best position player prospect and the best pitching prospect in baseball. Guys, this is HUGE.
December 7, 20169 yr I'm a huge Eaton fan, and I own an Eaton jersey. And I still love this deal. You still need good pitching to win championships, and developing pitching is the Sox bread and butter. Would I have liked Robles? Yeah, of course. But still, when you get two top 50 prospects for Eaton, you do it. Take it and run, baby.
December 7, 20169 yr QUOTE (Tony @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 02:05 PM) Good. Keep it going. Burn it to the ground. +++++

It doesn't help solve the problem we have now, at all. Our position players have been awful. As of now, we have set ourselves up to have the exact same problem we have now, but only if all goes right. If it doesn't, we won't have offensive or pitching.
December 7, 20169 yr According to this ranking we got their 1 and 3 best prospects. http://m.mlb.com/prospects/2015?list=was
December 7, 20169 yr QUOTE (Baron @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 04:08 PM) The Nationals fans hated trading Lopez. Like alot. Glad we got him. I would have been OK with just Giolito honestly, but getting him is putting this deal over the top. Eaton is a 4 win player, but we sold him like he was at least a 5 win player. You take that any day.

I hope Hahn is on the phone with the NYY, LAD and Marlins saying, hey, whichever one doesn't get Chapman or Jansen, we got Robertson. Come get him!
December 7, 20169 yr My first reaction was I didn't like it, mainly because of no position player coming back. But once I saw who the pitchers were...wow. That is a good trade.
