Heads22 Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 So who do you sell? Lynn? Hendriks? Abreu? Giolito? Graveman? Section 108? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CentralChamps21 Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 I would trade Abreu but of course we know that's not gonna happen. Would trade Cueto. Would trade Ruiz, Foster, Velasquez, Harrison and Pollock though I don't know what you can get for them. Would trade Eloy for the right offer but wouldn't give him away. Have to bank on Moncada and Grandal rebounding. Can't get any value for them. Definitely would trade Kelly but again don't know that you can get much. Would do backflips if anybody would take Leury. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be selling low. I'd hold and hope that they're pitching well next year. Hendriks/Graveman/Abreu? Yes. Also Cueto. This rebuild has failed. I'd shop Cease and Anderson this winter. Hold on Vaughn/Robert/Eloy to see if they get better. It's back to square one though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Reinsdorf will never sign off on an Abreu trade unless Abreu himself wants out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He traded Sale, Quintana and Eaton for Kopech, Cease, Giolito, Lopez, Dunning, Moncada and Eloy. That's three current starters, a good reliever, and another guy who got traded for one of our starters. It's not Hahn's fault that the coaching staff totally fucked up Moncada and Eloy. Those were fantastic trades. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 You listen on everyone and see who blows you away. Though the best thing you can do to increase play values is to Fire Tony. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenSox Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Probably shouldn't sell, because there is slim chance that Hahn will get Hostetler to dispatch his scouts to adequately evaluate the minor league systems of teams that would be interested in Sox players. He'd be trading off of prospect ranking lists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxjusttyped Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 I think teams are smart enough to look past ugly ERA's for Lucas & Lynn. The Sox will be able to still get good value for those 2 if they're made available, but my preference with Lucas is still very much to extend him. Lynn, Hendriks, Graveman, & Jose (depending on if he wants to go or not) are the most obvious trade candidates. Maybe they'd be able to get a Pilkington equivalent prospect back for Harrison. A contender might want Cueto for the backend of their rotation, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBooneLoganEra Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 If you're gonna sell you need to get mlb ready talent in return. A retool for next year as opposed to a rebuild. Trade off one of Lynn or Giolito with Hendriks and maybe Pollock and/or Burger. Of course this is all a moot point because I knew this rebuild would lead here and I know they'll fail at this too. I just don't know where else to go with my Fandom. Milwaukee? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like where the Cubs are this season in their teardown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
