Tnetennba Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 1 minute ago, WhiteSox2023 said: I’m not even going to bother to look at that site but I truly hope their fans aren’t this clueless. A 29 year old Santander making $11.7 million in 2024 is about the last player they would want in the return for Luzardo, or any of their players. They're so anxious to trade the vets to keep the kids, failing to recognize that their vets have a fraction of the trade value the prospects do. One good season and they're drunk on their own koolaid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me give you the players I don’t need that are either blocked or old and expensive for exactly what my team needs. Maybe throw in Joey Ortiz with Santander and the Marlins will accept! 🤣 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quick Getz, call the Marlins and see what they will give you for Nicky Lopez! He also thinks the Orioles have a shot at signing Bellinger to a 2-year, $50 million dollar deal.

almagest Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Just wait until half or 2/3rds of their prospects bust or end up minor contributors. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rey21 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Yeah they’re trippin over there now, if I’m the Marlins GM and that’s their offer I’m deleting Mike Elias’ phone number. Mayo/Basallo headline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fielder Jones Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Maybe not in these proposed ways, but i could see the Orioles trading Santander. they dont like to pay that last big arb year, i'm sure. that's how they operate. Even though theyre win now i can see them weaseling out of it and selling it to the fanbase somehow if it involves a pitcher coming in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteSox2023 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Some team is going to have to bite on Cease at $20 million or so for 2 years if a closer can cost 5-years and $95 million. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 4 hours ago, Balta1701 said: This also tells you the market for all players is not nearly as hot as before 2023. If it's the RSN thing causing less spending ,wouldn't you think that Cease being fairly inexpensive would work to the Sox advantage ? I understand it also might make prospects more valuable also but I would also think your older and defensively challenged types prospects will start to lose some of their value too. I think that's why the Dodgers acted on Busch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No team looking for a right fielder for 2 years is going to trade someone from their current rotation. They'd be getting prospects to replenish their pipeline after trading for Cease or another starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quin Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 This is reminding me of when my mom said the Sox should trade Gavin Sheets for a frontline starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd get a decent package - not enough to make up for a good pitcher, but some solid pieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High ceiling and made a big jump on the BA and MLB updated prospect lists. I’m not sure about Kelenic though. I’d rather avoid him especially with his arb clock well started by now. I’d love a deal headlined by AJSS and Waldrep but doubt Braves would part with both, especially after trading for Sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sports Guy Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 (edited) 2 hours ago, Chicago White Sox said: Are you actually saying Dean Kremer is the best #4 starter in baseball? I’m sorry, but that’s an absolutely terrible take. And you have by far the worst #3 starter of any real competitor. You aren’t living in reality if you believe this. No, I’m saying most teams (if any) don’t have 4 starters better than Kremer. That’s an absolute fact. And again, I’m not a big Kremer fan. I want to deal him and most Os fans think that’s crazy but his actual performance since the second half of 2022 is pretty solid.
