Avilan/Cedeno "in play"

Featured Replies

At least one of them will be traded.

Just a few lefties on the list, and other than Conley, none is any better than Avilan or Cedeno.

I agree at least one will go, but it will be a boring return.

I 100% agree with this.

I'll take the two roster spots for Bummer and maybe Fulmer or Hamilton..Avilan and Cedeno are deadweight to me

Don’t get me wrong, trading them is the correct thing to do. I just think there will be minor league free agents this winter that are far more interesting then what they get back.

Perhaps we can combine it with Intl free agent space to improve return.

Wow. Sox just sent $1.5 million in pool money to NYY for a lefty AA reliever. Good call.

He had just been promoted to AAA.  Very high walk rates until this year where something may have clicked.

Between the light 2018 signing class and teams like orioles suddenly spending on latam, suddenly felt like the market for our spending allowance got better.

#WhiteSox⁠ ⁠ have 3 lefties the Cubs have been looking at. Avilan, Cedeno and Fry. However no word yet on trade partner. Speculation from earlier in the week.

Well.. if it is us, Giambrone certainly fits into what @Dick Allen was talking about as far as a boring return.

According to Cubs fans its Mike Trout, Bryce Harper, Jacob deGrom, Babe Ruth, Jesus, and international pool money for one of Giambrone or Ayala but definitely not both because that would be an overpay.

Lol...my thoughts exactly, not sure I’d trade him to Cubs for that kid though.

Deal fell through

 

funny how Cubs fans on twitter thought it was Amaya and not Ayala.  As for Giambrone, he's the 30th best prospect in one of the worst systems in baseball, yet their fans thought he was headlining a mega deal.

I enjoy that his teammates were hugging him to support his hammy.

Brad Brach hasn't been great this year, but he has a very good track record.  Impending FA that Baltimore received just $250k in international money for.

Avilan - a reliever so good we'll trade him twice!
