I can't believe they waited for the deadline for this.

If we're adding Robertson we better be getting Groome or Travis back.

I agree

The #Redsox moving closer to acquiring #Whitesox 3B Todd Frazier. Be interesting if Boston can get David Robertson as setup man in package

 

 

I'm listening.

I feel like Boston should have gotten Frazier like a month ago.

Would prefer to trade Robertson to someone else, not really enamoured with Boston's system after their top couple of prospects

Ahh, well at least there are two weeks left.

If Hahn is bringing Groome or Chavis back thats similar to bringing Soto back from the Nats, Fowler(pre injury) from the Yankees or McMahon back from the Rox.

 

Groome, Ockimey & Mata and I'm feeling like the Adam Eaton trade all over again.

Please include D-Rob

I wonder if there is anything to the Robertson piece or if that was Nightengale just speculating entirely.

 

 

The Wsox should really try to add DRob and take on some of his $$$ to get a really nice package here.

We were eating a bunch of robertsons salary in the proposed Nats DRob deal and only getting lizardo/Ward so I'm just going to expect about same. Maybe luzardo had a big reputation among scouts though.

There's lots of Todd Frazier to #redsox buzz, but they're still monitoring other 3B options. Search is still "wide open,'' says a source.

Booooo

Booooo

 

No kidding. Damn you, Crasnick.

Does this mean Rafael Devers?

Holy contradictions batman

Nightengale saying only "fringe" prospects coming back in potential Frazier deal, and that we'd eat cash too.

Figured as much but damn those tweets last few days got me excited.

I hope Hahn plays hardball here. Hold out for something decent with all these remaining players. If that means waiting until after the deadline for a waiver deal, so be it. The contenders should be more desperate to get these reinforcements for the playoff push than the Sox should be to unload them.

Depends on the meaning of "fringe."

 

If that means no one in their top 20, heck, I wouldn't move him on July 16th.

The BostonStrong tweeter insists they're getting Frazier.

 

Does the BostonStrong tweeter have any track record of being right?

No idea, but I generally give people with a decent sized following some validity.

The team since signed Fister. To make a deal today for Frazier+Robertson would add about $10M to payroll https://t.co/Pw6Yt9WpKk

Of course, the White Sox have other relievers to trade who would fit within Red Sox' payroll parameters. Chicago could also subsidize deal.

Jose Abreu (our poster here) seems to think so
