July 31, 201312 yr QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 09:42 PM) My guess and I hope I'm very wrong is Iglesias, Middlebrooks, Ranaudo. I'd be okay with this but I still think Bradley Jr is involved
July 31, 201312 yr QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 09:42 PM) My guess and I hope I'm very wrong is Iglesias, Middlebrooks, Ranaudo. Not a terrible deal as long as the White Sox are not sending back cash as well.

July 31, 201312 yr My feelings for peavy were far different than most sox fans. I'm fairly happy to get some decent value for him
July 31, 201312 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 09:43 PM) I wouldn't mind it I'm just not sold on Middlebrooks or Iglesias. It would be alright I suppose. Edited July 31, 201312 yr by DirtySox
July 31, 201312 yr QUOTE (chunk23 @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:40 PM) Iglesias is terrible, all glove and no bat. Hahn really learned from KW. Iglesias splits.... http://espn.go.com/mlb/player/splits/_/id/...2/jose-iglesias Think he may have found a bat.
July 31, 201312 yr QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 07:44 PM) f***ing 4.8% walk rate -- we need guys that get on base! Iglesias is for his glove

July 31, 201312 yr QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 09:40 PM) Figures since we haven't heard from you in a few days . Do you know if BoSox bit or Hahn came down? That's something I'll hear about later I'm sure. All I've heard is Rick has been very firm on returns.
July 31, 201312 yr QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 09:44 PM) I'm just not sold on Middlebrooks or Iglesias. Me either =\ Both of them appear to be BABIP fueled hitters -- swing at everything, hope pitchers don't figure that out.
July 31, 201312 yr Alex Speier @alexspeier 1m Sources tell @bradfo & me that Red Sox in advanced talks w/White Sox, Tigers on 3-way deal bringing Peavy to Boston http://fullcount.weei.com/sports/boston/ba...ire-jake-peavy/ … Wat
July 31, 201312 yr I like Ranuado...but I'd have liked trying to get Davidson and Owings from Dbacks...too much suspense
July 31, 201312 yr Pre Season #12 for Boston prospects here is a scouting rport: (the Of in the Throton trade is #13 btw) 12) Jose Iglesias, SS, Grade C+: His glove is excellent but his bat is so bad that it may be tough to keep him in the lineup anyway. If they are lucky he can be the Cuban Adam Everett and hold a job with positive WAR even with poor hitting. If they aren't lucky, keep in mind that Rey Ordonez had a great glove but couldn't hold the job anyway. This is baseball. Weird s*** happens sometimes. He hit .202/.262/.319 in 33 games for Pawtucket, which is horrendous, then comes up to the majors and hits .343/.391/.428 in 201 at-bats. Yeah, driven by an unsustainable BABIP. I'll be very surprised if he's hitting anything close to this by the time he gets to 600 plate appearances.

July 31, 201312 yr while all these trades are starting to come to possibly go down, MLB Network is showing a Yankees-Dodgers game. screw them for making me watch baseball tonight.
