Vaughn/Dahlquist/Thompson.......hmm

I doubt they trade any of those 3 at this stage

It may not happen, but I am tired of talking about Mazara. Let's get some fresh conversation going as we wait for (possibly) more action. If you had to guess, what trade proposal do the Sox have on the table?

Please be Correa, please be Correa, please be Correa.

Agent Carter or Peggy Kusinski. I'm sure it's one of them.

Maybe Hahn is torturing the guy who leaks to Peggy's son and this is a part of it.

Kid is an embarrassment.  He still pimps his Twitter with the Joc trade that never actually came to fruition.

This is kind of how I feel.

I don't think we have the pieces.  We are in the strange position of having very good top 50 guys like you mention and very thin after that.  Guys like Walker was are not much to bait the hook with and Kopech, Madrigal, Robert and Vaugh types are more valuable to us and our needs.  Madrigal & Vaughn plus would be similar to the fleecing we gave the Cubs for Q.  Our best trade affordable trade chips are probably McCann, Fry, Fuller and Rodon... maybe Colome.  I would part with Vaugh + a couple of names I mentioned.  That wouldn't be enough to get it done IMO.  

Blake Snell is much more valuable than Quintana was when we dealt him. Snell is like getting Chris Sale locked up for his prime.

Yes I’m intrigued I guess but not seeing a fit.

Then they won't get anything of true value.....unless it's a package of major leaguers like ReyLo/Bummer/Fry etc.

I think they're similar. Snell has only had the one excellent year. He's coming off of a year worse than Quintana's 2017.

False. The guy had a 3.32 FIP last year with a 12.9 K/9

I'm not knocking Snell as much as voicing my displeasure with getting rid of Madrigal who I see as integral to the next 10 + years of WS baseball.

With a 4.29 ERA. 

Snell racks up Ks so his FIP is always going to be low. The Javier Vazquez fallacy.

Yeah come on....... Snell and Sale were not even comparable at the time of their trades.. Stop it. Sale was a top 3 starting pitcher in the league.. Snell had one amazing year surrounded by.. dissappointement?

Reading comprehension? The comparison was Snell to Quintana, yo.

And Vaughn and Madrigal is arguably a better package than Moncada and Kopech at the time of the trade.

We're in a handy dandy world where advanced statistics in baseball are so mature that we can see the truth behind the numbers. FIP is a much better representation of production than ERA.

How are we still having this convo.

"Snell is like getting Chris Sale locked up in his prime".. you just said this

Sale was even more valuable than Snell in my opinion. Had not dealt with some of the injuries, back to back 200+ IP seasons and much higher WAR for Sale

Sale was the most valuable starting pitcher traded in ages and on a cheap contract

I guess anything is arguable, but no.  

Arenado became available yesterday afternoon.

Would Vaughn, Madrigal, Dahlquist & Thompson get it done? Could something along those lines be this interesting offer?

My goodness. Soxtalk has really become something over the past few years. Moncada had big-league at bats and was the #1 prospect in all of baseball at time of the trade.
