SoCalChiSox Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 Hopefully Davis Martin looks good tonight. They could actually get something good for him due to control. I feel they rushed him back to showcase him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel they rushed him back to showcase him. I think he’s far more likely to be part of an offseason trade, but probably needs to have a good August & September to improve his value. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A whole lotta tito polos I feel like. I hope I am wrong, but I don’t see a ton of moves being made. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSox59 Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 Assuming Sox are able to clear some of the vets off this roster the next few days, they should bring in recently DFA Eric Haase for no other reason than Venable being willing to play Quero and Teel together. Feel like half of Haase career homers have come against the Sox. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather do this with Lee instead of Haase, not that the Sox have shown any desire to do so. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I agree, I think they'd prefer Lee to play everyday versus a few starts a month. I hope they trade Lee next couple days personally, out of options next season. Imagine Padres would give up something for him. Edited July 29 by ChiSox59 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had people last year talking about him being on the major league roster THIS YEAR. He doesn't have the Schultz excuse of not having pitched deep into games before either. Dude just literally lost the ability to control the baseball. He’s always had command issues before getting into the White Sox system, he’s a work in progress and I feel much better with Bannister guiding him than previous pitching instructors. It just stings more because Griffin and Weatherholt have had great years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guessing the Cubs think he's cooked. And they are probably correct. Somehow this guy managed to maintain a decent to low ERA considering his awful metrics. Take a look at the hits and walks he’s given up the past two years with both Chicago teams, along with his strikeout rate. The Cubs must realize that the horseshoe has already started to fall out of his ass. Edited July 29 by WhiteSox2023 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally everyone they want to trade has major flaws and other team would rather have their first choices instead of the Sox guys. The Sox were going to be last minute kind of moves once plan A, B, and C fall through for other teams. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 (edited) We should start seeing some meaningful trade activity today. Typically the vast majority of moves happen on the final two days before the deadline, with the final day having about 3x the volume that the second to last day has. Based on recent trends, we should expect around 10 trades or so today and close to 30 tomorrow. I’m assuming most of our trades will go down to the wire. Robert is a tricky asset and while I don’t feel Getz’s rumored demands are unreasonable, we are living in a day and age of prospect hugging and teams will try to call our bluff on holding for as long as possible. Tauchman seems like a tomorrow move as all the signaling so far is that we will hold if we don’t get something of value in return. Houser is getting moved, but he feels like more of a backup for teams who can’t land something impactful. My guess is he goes tomorrow, but likely we’ll before the official deadline. My prediction is we see Slater dealt today. Useful player but a rental weak side platoon corner OF is going to have limited value. Find a team willing to give up a lottery ticket and move on. The other possibility is a surprise trade involving one of Sosa, Davis, or Lee. I think Korey is the most likely to get moved out of those three and if it happens, I could see that being today possibly. Otherwise, I expect most of our movement to happen tomorrow.

SoCalChiSox Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 There seems to be a ton of demand for controllable relievers. I wouldn't be shocked if we got a solid return for Eisert. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
