This is why if they were short on prospects I thought they had to go out and spend on areas of weakness in free agency. But if they traded Vaughn who would they need to get back with Montas for Soxtalk to feel good about the trade? Right but if Oakland wants Vaughn, who do the Sox need to get back so that they get a good enough return? You're firstly making a mistake thinking Hahn would get something back, but I'll go with Laureano since they can't trust Engel to stay healthy. (And yes, he's suspended for roughly the first month.) Which matches the Joe Kelly deal. Edited April 3, 20224 yr by caulfield12
April 3, 20224 yr Vaughn has a more ascertainable value than Burger and esp. Sheets. Extracting that value in a trade is difficult, however. Montas sure isn't it.

April 3, 20224 yr Just a thought but would the Pirates be interested in a Vaughn for Keller swap? Just spitballing here. Edited April 3, 20224 yr by Jack Parkman

Montas sure isn't it. Fair enough. Then who is it? I really don’t get the hard on for a player rushed up who hits the long ball and has no official position. Or is it that Vaughn is the tradeable piece worth a damn or is it that Vaughn will replace Abreu? Edited April 3, 20224 yr by The Beast

April 3, 20224 yr This board has become full on insufferable. The White Sox not having a window beyond 2023 is 1 of the dumber things typed on the internet today

The fact that he was drafted so high to be a reliable 25-30+ homer, doubles hitting machine for the next decade at 1B. Generational bat, etc.

The White Sox not having a window beyond 2023 is 1 of the dumber things typed on the internet today Let it be noted that I said 2024 is the last year. And KC only had two years, total, but boy they were good ones. Just one Bumgarner super human effort away from two consecutive World Series titles.

Keller and Luzardo have + stuff so why is Vaughn the only player capable of improving? What makes Vaughn a stud hitter in the making but Keller/Luzardo are doomed to be eternal gascans?
