December 10, 201411 yr Chris Cotillo @ChrisCotillo 15h15 hours ago Have heard from multiple people about how much "Rick Hahn loves Jason Castro". Trade candidate. #WhiteSox #Astros Yup Who do the Sox have that Houston would want? Is it worth giving up Anderson for him? Can you get him without giving up Anderson?
December 10, 201411 yr Good god now were debating giving up Anderson for a catcher with Flowers' offensive output.
December 10, 201411 yr Maybe a bullpen arm like Webb and a decent minor leaguer or two (May/Engel) could get Castro. I know the Sox have their own glut of catchers right now, but Castro/Conger/Corporan/Stassi....seems like something has to give.

December 10, 201411 yr QUOTE (raBBit @ Dec 10, 2014 -> 11:57 AM) That is nowhere near enough but the Astros are of the strangest teams. If Hahn loves Castro as much as the teenaged hack says, that trade would have been made already. The Astros are the most sabermetric organization in baseball. If their analysis isn't 100% sabermetric, it is very close. It would be a tough match with White Sox prospects. This would probably have to be a 3 way, maybe the 3 way Hahn was refering to last summer. Edited December 10, 201411 yr by Dick Allen
December 10, 201411 yr QUOTE (flavum @ Dec 10, 2014 -> 08:45 AM) That's true. Sox just seem to have a thing with Castro. I just don't see how we can justify spending significant resources on catcher when we have far greater holes, specifically our outfield defense (and an outfield spot in general) and our defense at 3B. I'd put catcher behind quite a few spots in my priority least (including an improvement in the rotation and another reliever).
