March 2, 20179 yr Wonder what the Red Sox would have offered for Sale had this happened before the Sale trade. Anyways what do the Red Sox even have to offer? Devers, Groome, then what?

Maybe Devers, Groome and then 2 pieces in the range of the Diaz guy we got.
March 2, 20179 yr If Boston needs replacement for Price, best FA available could be Doug Fister. Industry speculation: Will BOS use Devers to pursue Quintana? https://twitter.com/Buster_ESPN/status/837360517106794496

March 2, 20179 yr I was joking when I first brought up the idea in this thread. I don't see the Red Sox emptying their farm anymore.
March 2, 20179 yr A few people mentioned this could kick the Yankees back in to the Q sweepstakes if they feel the Red Sox are more vulnerable now. Or...it could kick the Yankees back in to the Q sweepstakes, because they'd know they are f'ed for the next 3-4 years if Boston has both Quintana and Sale and both are on very team favoring contracts. To me that's the best case scenario, because I like the Yankees prospects the most here. The Sox should kick start this in to motion with a leak that the Red Sox are inquiring about Quintana, and see where it goes. Should we expect a tweet from Bob Nightengale in the day or two?
March 8, 20179 yr Here's an article making a case for the Rays to make a run at acquiring Q. The Rays don't strike me as a team bold enough to cough up the haul it would take to get Q. https://www.google.com/amp/www.draysbay.com...t-jose-quintana

Hopefully they are playing good early on and are looking for a starter in June or July. He's so cheap he would be the type of guy they could make a case to drop some prospects and trade for a front-of-the rotation guy. But they are also similar to the Pirates.

Yeah, Tampa is like Pitt in that they the prospects but I doubt they have the balls to actually go for it. I think it would take Adames, Honeywell, Bauers and Lowe for the Rays to get into the bidding.
March 8, 20179 yr QUOTE (reiks12 @ Mar 2, 2017 -> 01:16 PM) Dalbec looks like a monster just reading up on him I REALLY wanted the Sox to draft Dalbec last year. He is a monster and slid to the 4th round after a really lackluster Jr year at UofA. Not sure if it was all his hype since he was projected as a high to mid 1st round going into the season....or the fact he was really getting jacked around between playing 3B and pitching. He finished the year ok after a miserable start...but this guy is definitely a monster who will be heard from down the road IMO.

Adames + Honeywell would be a must Your proposed package is along the right lines of what it would take to land Quintana...a very steep price I'd want Jesus Sanchez included in any Tampa Bay deal. He's 19 and dripping with talent Austin Franklin is an interesting young arm Adames + Honeywell + any two of Bauers/Gillespie/Lowe/Sanchez/Franklin would be a nice package of talent for the White Sox Doubtful TB has the stones to pull off something like that though. They rely too heavily on their farm to stock the mlb roster to deplete it in a Q deal

They are sellers not buyers.

That should be pretty close for both teams. I don't think TB will be serious suitors for Q, just entertaining the possibility is all.
March 16, 20179 yr Seems likely the Braves have made best Q offer https://www.fanragsports.com/mlb/heyman-11-...pring-training/

Potential others: Brewers - should be good again by 2018-2019 when they have minimal payroll and oodles of hitting talent. Doesn't fit the FO typical pattern tho. Phillies - similar, but their farm isn't as good as the Brewers. Hard to see this. San Diego - no clue, but they're weird Oakland - see above Other teams either don't have the prospects (Diamondbacks, Twins, Reds) or aren't really rebuilding, per se (Rays, Rox)

March 17, 20179 yr Would love the Braves to swoop in and get him. To me, they have the best farm system in the MLB and they preach fundamentals top to bottom. First class org.

They are in the middle of rebuilding and I don't see them shelling out a bunch of prospects right now
