March 22, 20179 yr QUOTE (Sleepy Harold @ Mar 22, 2017 -> 12:59 PM) Jim Bowden @JimBowden_ESPN 6m #WhiteSox continue to work hard on Jose Quintana trade that could happen before opening day with Astros & Braves appear best possibilities Jim Bowden @JimBowden_ESPN 20s A potential #WhiteSox #Astros deal would be centered around a package of both Frances Martes and Kyle Tucker. However, nothing close. Most likely more non-news, but do you guys believe this is his own assumption (or assumption around everyone) or do you think there is possible legs?

There's been more chatter it seems in the last 24 hours, but this seems likes it's happened about 78 other times this offseason too, so until something more substantial comes out I take it as just talk (even though every time I hope it isn't, gotta be right eventually right???)

Yeah I don't think he gets dealt until July personally. Just interested in the way he phrased that second tweet.
March 22, 20179 yr For #WhiteSox to trade him now prevents risk of unforeseen Sonny Gray type situation w A's last yr and premature contending issues https://twitter.com/JimBowden_ESPN/status/844612939592159232
March 22, 20179 yr Tucker and Martes seems to be a good and fair start for both teams. Who knows if anything comes of it.

March 22, 20179 yr There is definitely a lot more chatter on twitter today on this front. Seems like it may pick up some serious steam if one of the big guys reports on this as well. Still could be nothing though.

While I don't wish injuries on opposing players, it would be very helpful if an important starter on the Astros, Pirates, Dodgers even went down in the next week and a half.

March 22, 20179 yr The best available pitcher beyond Quintana, surmised two sources, is Junior Guerra, the Milwaukee Brewers starter who had a standout rookie season last year – as a 31-year-old. FFFFFFUUUUUUUU-

March 22, 20179 yr Astros might be running a opening day starting rotation of keuchel, morton, mccullers, Musgrove and fiers. Thats not that great. Quintana would definitely help
March 22, 20179 yr QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Mar 22, 2017 -> 01:23 PM) Tucker and Martes seems to be a good and fair start for both teams. Who knows if anything comes of it. They have a lot of positional talent beyond the top guys too. Fisher, Reed, Davis, and Sierra are guys that stand out to me as well.

Fisher, Reed, Davis, and Sierra are guys that stand out to me as well. I'm a fan of Fisher as a potential third piece. 43 homers over last 2 seasons, left-handed bat, walks a lot.

Not saying I agree or disagree but there are experts out there who are super high on Martes. Edited March 22, 20179 yr by Rowand44
