Chicago White Sox Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 8 minutes ago, bobbydanks said: I'm watching Foul Territory and they've mentioned almost every available starter but Houser, is it possible we just thought there was more of a market for him than there is? They wouldn’t have scratched if there was zero interest. Getz is clearly holding out for a certain return…whether that works out remains to be seen.

Look at Ray Ray Run Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 (edited) 18 minutes ago, Nardiwashere said: Its not collusion. If Houser is like the 6th most desirable SP on the market and 1-2 SPs have been moved, what is he supposed to do? Force the other teams to want Houser over Gore? I'm sure you'd be real forgiving if he just started giving guys away. Mike Soroka was traded yesterday. When everyone is making moves and youre not, it's likely you misread the market and valued your guys incorrectly. Thats just my opinion of course. Hahn had a couple of those!

CWSpalehoseCWS Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 12 minutes ago, ptatc said: Yes, its on hom. Its his job to determine if the return is worth the trade. Just because a bunch of people on a posting board want it done doesn't mean its always the right thing. The jury is still out on Getz. Well know on a couple of years. C'mon, Getz is a mediocre to bad GM. Yes, he made a lot of internal changes to improve how the Sox operate, but so would ANY GM that came into the Sox FO once they saw how poorly it was being run. Getz continues to prove he folds around the deadline and can't play with the big boy GM's of the league. They call his bluff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 You'd think Houston would be interested, they have 2 reliable starters right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With this logic, there is no way Alex Call could have been traded before LRJ.. oh wait.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmmmmbeeer Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Yeah, I don’t get it. Even if you’re trading folks away for peanuts, you’re saving a few bucks and opening up spots for young guys. Holding onto everyone is counterproductive. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What other SPs have moved? JP Sears, Kolek, Zack Littell off the top of my head and I guess some think Mason Miller. Additionally, yes everyone is making moves. There have been many moves today. The White Sox are probably the #1/2 Candidate in baseball to be a seller. They should be selling anything they have for whatever they can get.

Jake Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Falter has crummy metrics, years of team control remaining, and went to a non-contender. That's a developmental play, more of the kind of the thing the Sox would be receiving rather than dealing 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
