I would gag if we didn't get tucker.

WSD predicts Martes, Tucker, Fisher, Stubbs, and Laureano if Houston trade were to get done.

 

MAKE THEM PAY MORE!

 

His prediction mean about as much as our predictions.

 

Not trying to say he doesn't have sources because I don't doubt him, just that it has nothing to do with predictions.

I am a fan of WSD but that doesn't make much sense. Five top 10 prospects when Sale only got 3? Granted, Moncada was probably worth 2 top prospects by himself.

 

Did he have sources or was he just throwing that out there?

I don't know how a deal gets done without Tucker. That would be crazy. (Unless Bregman) But that's crazy talk.

Not getting Tucker would be a big disappointment.

He's just throwing s*** out there like he usually does.

Throwing it out there but I'm sure someone on here will assume he has sources on it ha

Merkin guessed at WSD's tweet that Tucker would not be involved. Just a guess tho. Still just going in circles throwing s*** as we pass each other.

I think this goes back to the fact that the astros are not an interesting trade partner to me.

Speaking of the Astros, OF Ramon Laureano is an interesting prospect. He had stupid numbers last year. Sickels has him number 7 on his list, whereas Baseball America doesn't even have him in the top 10. Wonder how the White Sox feel about him.

We are on the same page. I like Laureano too as well as Jason Martin who put up some nice power numbers at high A and hits from the left side. Also like Stubbs too.

All top 10s are not made the same.

Really intrigued by the merkin comment. If no Tucker, the deal has to have either an absurd amount of prospects or guys we haven't really even thought about as available.

Maybe no Tucker in the deal because it will include BREGMAN and the world would stand in awe.

No offense, but that's not even close to comparable with the Sale deal.

 

Bregman + Tucker + Daz Cameron + a flier would be the Astro's equivalent.

 

And just because it's been asked before.

 

Yankees equivalent: Torres, Rutherford, Tate + flier

Pirates: Meadows, Newman, Hayes, Diaz

 

Tucker is only 19 (I think), so he has a chance in a year or two to be a top 20 prospect if he keeps progressing, who knows maybe top 10. He seems like a Meadows type player - pure hitter, good speed, maybe a bit more power than Meadows from what I've read. So yes, I'd agree, probably got ahead of myself in that it isn't quite on par with Sale as of today, but Tucker could easily be Meadows or Torres in a year or two. And he theoretically would be the second piece of this deal.

Well that would be a real bummer...He's the one guy I'd really want of all Astros prospects (excluding Bregman which isn't happening).

An Astros return without Tucker would be a huge disappointment in my opinion. This is operating under the assumption that Bregman is untouchable.

I'm all for the " awe " part, would be great. If, somehow, Hahn was able to snag Bregman I would bet Frazier would be joining Q in Houston.

Hrmm.

If this gets done and Houston keeps Bregman, Tucker, AND Reed I'll be really bummed.

Tucker available for Archer (supposedly) but not Q?

Okay lets create a phone tree to map out who we need to wake up. Someone start a google doc?

 

Tweet-> Soxtalk post-> profit.

Which is why Bregman makes sense here. Maybe Merkin knows something we dont. Everyone said Moncada was untouchable too.

Yeah, I don't get it. If Merk guesses no Tucker, I'd have to assume Bregman or Springer is in the deal. Maybe even Frazier going to Houston too.

Don't get my hopes up.

 

Cause I'd be ecstatic.

Springer doesn't fit at all.

Scott Merkin ‏@scottmerkin 14s15 seconds ago

@AaronLemingNFL @barstoolWSD @JamesFox917 And talks will be ongoing with Q and until they aren't. Not like CWS making him untouchable

 

In response to the Tucker talk.
