southsider2k5 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 @jcrasnick Jerry Crasnick #Whitesox uncharacteristically quiet on trade front. Should have better idea where they stand after 6 games vs. #Indians and #Tigers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockRaines Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Well, they already have the bat they need sitting in AAA. The pitching has been fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 The Sox are always quiet on the tradefront, what is Crasnick talking about. KW always surprises people when stuff happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoSox05 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I'm still waiting for the Mike Adams for Viciedo deal. Things would get scary around here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ginger Kid Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 plus, i think it's hard to put your finger on one position and say "that's our weakness." We need a bat at 3B, CF and DH, plus someone not named Bruney who throws with his right hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 We better win at least 5 of 6 or lose at least 5 of 6. That way decisions can be made to stay in this or to bail out, instead of being caught in the middle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That way decisions can be made to stay in this or to bail out, instead of being caught in the middle. That is my feeling as well. If they can go 5-1, or at least 4-2, that goes a long way. 2-4 or worse, it is time to sell. 3-3 would be the ultimate in frustration for everyone.

Real Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 (edited) QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 22, 2011 -> 09:06 AM) Not that it hasn't made sense and was the most logical move for at least 2 months, but it makes a lot of sense now as this weekend and the beginning of next week are against the teams ahead of them. The next 6 games could make or break the Sox, then they play Boston and the Yankees. Terry Boers Sox contact says Sox are "desperate" to trade Quentin and Jackson, and that top prospects arent being offered for either player. Says 7 teams have been in contact about those two players Edited July 22, 2011 by Real Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep and I didnt expect top prospects for either. I would take what you get for Jackson and hopefully you atleast get something decent for Carlos.

fathom Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Cowley was saying the same thing about Quentin and Jackson possibly being on the way out. Pretty simple, if you don't get a good package for Quentin, you don't trade him. There's plenty of other at bats you can find Viciedo for the rest of this season.

Based upon the lack of pitching available on the market, it would be silly to just give up Jackson for anything you can get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
