August 9, 201312 yr So the Rangers give up their whole farm for Dempster and Garza, but can't trade one good prospect for a guy who solves their immediate need or they likely don't make the playoffs? Like the Nationals, the baseball gods shall punish them for not going for it.

August 9, 201312 yr Dan Hayes @DanHayesCSN 1m Cancel that on Leury Garcia. Was told will be a player to be named or cash. #WhiteSox #rangers
August 9, 201312 yr I'm glad it happened. They got something. Avisail is coming up. Money off the books. It's all good to me.
August 9, 201312 yr If trading Rios is good, then good. But enough of mentioning "now avisail can come up" That was something that could happen whether Rios was traded or not. Jeez.
August 9, 201312 yr QUOTE (Brian @ Aug 9, 2013 -> 02:01 PM) Wow, his stats blow. He's a young 22 year old with some speed. Able to play multiple IF positions.

August 9, 201312 yr QUOTE (lord chas @ Aug 9, 2013 -> 06:05 PM) Like it. Gives the Sox so many options for next year Completely agree, and I'm not so sure with Rios' reputation that he was ever going to get a big haul in return.

Was told will be a player to be named or cash. #WhiteSox #rangers I find it funny the idea that we would trade a guy and just get cash, or basically sell the guy off. Like it's the early teen 1900's era. QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 9, 2013 -> 01:04 PM) Jon Heyman @JonHeymanCBS Rios traded to texas with $1M for ptbnl Hot prospect watch~!
August 9, 201312 yr Wow... The sox have a LOT of money to spend. I wonder if theyll go for Jacoby while his value is low.
August 9, 201312 yr QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Aug 9, 2013 -> 01:06 PM) If that ptbnl isn't someone good on the 40 man, this is an awful trade. This. Hahn had no reason to settle. Who on their 40 man would we realistically want?

It's moot now.

August 9, 201312 yr QUOTE (flavum @ Aug 9, 2013 -> 01:07 PM) Not really, but whatever. Rios is gone, and now Garcia will be up. It's moot now. I just dont get it phrased as some contributing reason as to why the trade should be done. They are two totally separate things. You dont do deals of this magnitude, completely altering payroll BECAUSE you dont want to sit Viciedo or Konerko so Avisail can play. Edited August 9, 201312 yr by Jose Paniagua
