I just don’t really have any interest in Joey Ortiz. Doesnt Ortiz basically have everything you need from a 2b/shortstop prospect considering he has a touch of power? To me if it wasnt for the age issue he'd even have a run at being a headliner/co-headliner type guy

I'd like Cease to go there to make them better for her. This thread is making it tricky. I hear ya. To be completely up front, I know very little about Joey Ortiz, but my god, if this thread doesn’t make me hate him already. I’m cheering against the poor bastard even if he’s traded here.

I was trying to get the pitching we don’t have to give you from the Padres. The Padres want MLB bats. In the deal you add 8 ready or nearly ready prospects. It’s okay if you don’t like it. I was just spit balling.

January 15, 20242 yr Honestly guys …. I don’t thin’ Getz wants to deal him but will do so if he gets a Kings Ransom.

And BTW it will take closer to 60m in SV from that site rather than 40m due to the premium for pitching. So yeah if it were Jones by himself for Cease I'd say no. You gotta throw in Hampton or Warren as the second piece and if Warren is the second piece then you need a quality third piece like Lalane or Vivas. As far as BAL goes, that site values Cowser alot more than Kjerstad (prolly cause of D, OBP, superior hit tool, speed etc). If Chicago accepts Kjerstad instead of Cowser, the rest of the package will be quite significant. Edited January 15, 20242 yr by SoCalChiSox

I’ve seen a number of guys that have mentioned Westburg as a possibility. But, I’m not one of them.

The Padres need CF LF and backend of the rotation fillers to hold everything together until their top pitching prospects are ready... But Cease would be ideal for SD to line up along with Darvish Musgrove King.
January 15, 20242 yr 1 hour ago, Sports Guy said: This is a fair post. Either way, Westburg holds a much higher value than Kjerstad position wise and defensively. Yeah for sure.
January 15, 20242 yr 1 hour ago, Rolle Tide said: this twitter guy doesn't know what he's talking about and I don't think anybody cares what he thinks. lol, he thinks it's "self-sabotage" to ask for a mid 70s prospect in return for Cease? I'd rather just keep him than get less than that.

January 15, 20242 yr This clown is also trying to rip on Sox fans and Getz, as if we all didn’t know that Jerry gifted the job to him. The replies from Sox fans are great. Edited January 15, 20242 yr by WhiteSox2023
