witesoxfan Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 QUOTE (CWSpalehoseCWS @ Dec 14, 2014 -> 03:38 PM) At the time, if the Sox did not tender Viciedo, Danks or Shuck would be your starting LF. That is just too risky to even think about. Plus there's no guarantee that a player like Ichiro would want to come to the Sox. QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Dec 14, 2014 -> 03:40 PM) I was complaining about tendering Viciedo a contract a couple of days ago but with the ability to cut him and only take on 750k or whatever, there was really no point in not tendering him a contract. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Dec 14, 2014 -> 03:45 PM) It would really be surprising if it went that far. I am pretty sure they knew they could trade him. $4 million isn't all that much, and despite what a lot want to think, this guy is still pretty young and has a lot of power. All of these posts hit a lot of nails on a lot of heads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWSpalehoseCWS Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Bruce Levine @MLBBruceLevine 3m3 minutes ago White Sox have meetings in next few days hoping to add backups for infield and outfield. (Money an issue.now ) That screams they have to move Viciedo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YouCanPutItOnTheBoardYES! Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I'd like any one of Yoervis Medina, Dominic Leone, or Tom Wilhelmsen in exchange for Viciedo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some rumors out there that Viciedo isn't the one going to Seattle, but if he does, don't expect it to be a name you ever heard of...and certainly not a lot of major league experience.

chitownsportsfan Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 QUOTE (daggins @ Dec 16, 2014 -> 08:06 PM) Crasnick is the only guy who tweeted this, right? Couple other mariners sources are saying (vaguely) that they are kicking the tires on a lot of different outfielders. Jack Z said today that he'd be adding "depth" mostly at this point so depending on what you consider depth he might be talking a smaller move like bringing in Viciedo or signing someone like Aoki. Hard to say but Hahn seems pretty certain from what I've gathered that they can move Viciedo for something, even if it's not to the Ms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heads22 Posted December 17, 2014 Author Share Posted December 17, 2014 It'd be interesting to see if we target Ackley. Could try and work in Catcher in the Rye references then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whisox05 Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Expect Dayan Viciedo to be traded. Hahn to @CSNChicago: "In all probability it will be another club that sees him in a greater role." https://twitter.com/ChuckGarfien/status/545026112498040833 Hahn continued: "and usually those things have a way of working themselves out." https://twitter.com/ChuckGarfien/status/545026197357228034 Rick Hahn is still a busy guy. Just before our interview today he got a call about a player. https://twitter.com/ChuckGarfien/status/545026494779518976 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shipps Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Is there any chance that the O's might be a fit for Tank? They have made no moves this off season and they have lost OF talent. Iono I'm just trying to think of what might fit if this M's ship has sailed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daggins Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I could see maybe the Orioles, to replace Delmon Young and DH a fair bit. What other teams need a RH with serious defensive limitations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
