Can't see even a new GM taking Quero back as the secondary piece, though.No to trade 1.

Mason Miller is a luxury that we probably can’t afford without giving up Bonemer. But we have to add a SP…you prefer going the rental route?

An ERA over 5 with a 1.333 whip in the minors.Guy provides thoughtful 40 man roster crunch analysis and comes up with a solid list of trade candidates and your response is to nitpick one piece of it? Lol, youre such a know it all

3 hours ago3 hr 1 hour ago, Chicago White Sox said:Because he was awesome before his injury (2.33 ERA | 12.86 K/9 | 3.21 BB/9 | 1.00 WHIP), has big time stuff, and has a 73rd percentile xwOBA in AAA despite playing half his games at Truist Field. Him having a couple of bad appearances while coming back from injury doesn’t change my evaluation of him.There are tons of minor league relievers who have good stuff and poor command that holds them back.
3 hours ago3 hr 16 minutes ago, Bonemer, I Hardly Know Her said:Guy provides thoughtful 40 man roster crunch analysis and comes up with a solid list of trade candidates and your response is to nitpick one piece of it? Lol, youre such a know it allIt was a question about the list he provided. That's how people communicate on forums, they see something and ask for clarification.Maybe you should go create another user name instead of policing responses that ask simple questions.
2 hours ago2 hr 42 minutes ago, fathom said:with the Angels wanting a young catcher, I’m all about sending Quero back to themThat’s what got me to come up with that proposal. Ideally you hold Edgar into next year and hope he can rebuild some value, but a lot of our potential chips will require trading them low and Edgar as short side platoon backup catcher is fairly replaceable. I’m definitely open to moving him.
2 hours ago2 hr 59 minutes ago, Look at Ray Ray Run said:There are tons of minor league relievers who have good stuff and poor command that holds them back.His command was noticeably better pre injury. Again, no guarantee he works out as minor league relievers are highly risky, but I think he’s got some value and could be used via trade to help improve the major league roster. I obviously put him last because he has far & away the lowest value of the guys listed.
2 hours ago2 hr Mason Miller would be a stupid ass use of resources and is the sort of move you make when you're at like 94 on the win expectations and have a starting staff ready to dominate the playoffs. It is not a move you make with this 2026 Sox team.

1 hour ago1 hr I have KW and Hahn PTSD. I'm totally expecting us to overpay for someone who will underperform while shipping out prospects that will fill holes on some other team as ones open on our roster.
1 hour ago1 hr I am on the Clay Holmes train. He can start or relieve and has 1 year of control. The only question is if his broken leg is ok. He just pitched a game down in the minors on rehab so we will see how it goes.1 hour ago, Lip Man 1 said:https://www.mlb.com/news/predicting-players-to-be-moved-2026-mlb-trade-deadline

Would do that in a heartbeat. And then add some + for Michael King.
40 minutes ago40 min Stephenson and Singer makes a ton of sense from Cinci. Should be able to fill 2 holes without giving up a top prospect. Maybe something like Adams, Mogollon/Bergolla and Lacombe/Larson?And then just get a cheap serviceable rental RP Edited 39 minutes ago39 min by TheFutureIsNear
