Let him get his 3 innings in and call it a day. 3 innings? If they're hitless after 3, let him go for the 9-inning no hitter, and pop his value through the roof.

I think the Sox match up much better with NY. Again, the Rangers are a pretty active international team. Wolcott being the top of that list, but I could see the Sox also having interest in Leiter and/or Rocker too if they think they can do something with them. Anthony Gutierrez is another one who is super young for his level, but could explode once he figures it out.

March 12, 20242 yr 1 minute ago, SoCalChiSox said: A single Top 100 plus more is weak. No. Very weak. Not even on the table. Oscar Colas was a back end top 100 guy. That's like a B- prospect. Cease is worth way more than that plus A ball lottos.
March 12, 20242 yr Author 1 minute ago, SoCalChiSox said: A single Top 100 plus more is weak. No. I like McGuffey but dude clearly doesn’t have any idea what fair value would be for a guy like Cease, unless that top 100 prospect or more like a 20 guy.

March 12, 20242 yr Not trying to ruffle any feathers or be a dick, but has Pal had things in the past? Nothing is coming to mind.

What if it's Cowser, Bradfield, McDermott, and Povich? That would be a helluva return and technically fit the scenario Guff laid out. There is no reason to get upset with such a broad framework of a rumored trade.

March 12, 20242 yr Well if they Yankees are in with a new and improved offer and it still doesn't include Jones, their (and others') earlier offers were probably a lot weaker than suspected. As for Jones, some rank him highly; others (Law) don't. I suspect that the Sox do. I also don't see a lot of other Yankees prospects that are particularly compelling.

True, which is why it’s such a weird way to word it.
