What would make you think they would take Eaton and Marshall. If they are going to eat some salary surely they would also want a decent prospect not retreads.

Who we rather in the lineup and naming our current bench players forced into action and naming any over the hill player with a big name and a big contract is irrelavant. No brainer or not it's never that simple.

Not to mention Eaton started with the DBacks and they got rid of him at the time for a very specific reason...we’ve seen and read all the stories.

Why would they want him around influencing the rebuild?  He would just be DFA’ed by most acquiring teams, with the Sox exchanging salary commitments.

Perhaps the 2 are intertwined but do you think it’s a big name/salary coming back or a big name from the Sox side moved to make the deal? 

So something is happening...?

Oh fuck yes!!  And goodbye Crochet if that’s the case.

What does it mean guys

 

should i get my hopes up??

Does Blackout Friday have any sources? If it’s not coming from a Chicago based food Twitter account, I have a hard time believing it.

He said he has some insight from the Blue Jays FO. 

Shelley Duncan and Ben Cherington were both in Toronto

Scouting Baltimore players? Santander? Galvis?

Who could be "big?"

Adam Frazier, Richard Rodriguez and an OF?

Ketel Marte, doing his own Engel impersonation... likely to go on DL for hamstring after sitting out trying to rehab it and re injuring it rounding first. 

Still have Escobar, Peralta, Reddick, Calhoun and Asdrubal Cabrera to consider. 

Escobar just added another XB hit. 

Right or wrong, I will say when I think “big” I think our 2020 draft being traded for Mitch Haniger:

Toronto or Buffalo?

Cedric Mullins or Marcus Semien.

Interesting. I'm  skeptical something big happens because that would mean some name(s) going out or coming in that is unexpected.

However that might be fun to see this place erupt into chaos.

I can tell you one thing if something does goes down, it will leak out of nowhere and quite possibly happen at night.

Why would the Blue Jays sell this early?

Could be anything ,anyone, which is why I'm very skeptical. It could be  Rodon, Lynn, Eloy, Madrigal, Vaughn, Crochet and getting different guys back with control. So many possibilities for Soxtalk to go ballistic.

I bet Vaughn and/or Crochet.

I could see the Sox taking on Polanco's contract.

He's a free agent after this year anyway but I would imagine they don't want to add anyone who is currently bad. But if you mean along with Frazier then thats different.

Bryan Reynolds?

Anything's possible I suppose . He's a switch hitter but if you are talking Frazier and Reynolds I'd shudder to think who they give up since Reynolds is controlled a long time and way up there in WAR.

Taking those 2 away from Pittsburgh would be some next level shit and I'd have a hard time believing anything  the Sox could offer couldn't be topped by teams with better prospects. If the Pirates trade those 2 they are reduced to ashes.
