Middle Buffalo Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Even if he isn’t projected to help a team in the playoffs, a guy who can put up quality starts the rest of the season should have some value to a contender. I guess nobody wants the White Sox stink on their rosters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 If Houser isn't traded it would almost certainly mean either 1. Getz is delusional on asking price 2. There is some kind of undisclosed problem with Houser — injury, PEDs, misconduct, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You either take the best offer and move on, or you get nothing for him. If you want Houser back, you offer him a contract in the offseason. #2 is just pure speculation and not worth mentioning.

Yeah I mean #1 doesn't make sense other than it is at least theoretically possible that a team's general manager is incompetent and blunders an obvious decision Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he is valuable enough to take innings from the young pitchers to protect thoer arms if they dont have a offer of anything more than just a flyer. Someone will need to throw the innings.

Not trading Houser would be moronic.

If they have to shut down Smith or any of the others. They'll probably need them though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
