I could see Montes or Gonzalez though for sure Do Woo or Miller have TOR talent? If not, I don't see the point of such a trade. I'm guessing they don't, as 6th and 4th round picks (although that's not dispositive). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Six years of control is really valuable. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just not sure why Seattle would really want to deal 6 years of either MLB ready starter (+ more) for 2 years.

Chicago White Sox Posted January 28 Author Share Posted January 28 8 minutes ago, Pale Sox said: Cease was a 6th round pick. I agree draft pick round is somewhat meaningless, but Cease was a massive overslot signing and got 40th overall pick type money. Very different situation from Woo who a slot signing and Miller who was an under slot signing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy has sort of implied BAL has offered one of Cowser/Kjerstad, one of Norby/Ortiz and "more" (Povich/Mcdermott?) but Getz is insisting on Westburg as the second piece. If thats true, that's a solid and acceptable offer but you still wait to see if NYY or someone else will cave in ST before accepting it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 I'd love a package headlined by Bryce Miller with OF Jonatan Clase in there somewhere as well. Miller has great metrics. I love to dream on that K/BB ratio and his power fastball. Clase is an absolute speed demon switch hitter. 79 SB last season to go along with 20 HR who plays in all 3 OF positions. He also did this in AA, so he's not far off from the majors. He's very intriguing to me as maybe a 3rd piece in the deal. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like there is a ton of work to do there with him. Not sure I trust the Sox to develop that. Though I guess he'd be fine as a final lotto ticket piece.

I'm willing to overlook a .230 batting average when his elite walk rate still gives him a .330+ OBP, game breaking speed, above average power, and CF defense. He's ranked among their top prospects for a reason, and that's all despite his swing and miss. And again, I'm taking about him as a 3rd piece in a trade that includes Bryce Miller and someone else in between.
