May 19, 201510 yr I heard this a couple weeks ago, Dave Cameron mentioned it on Fangraphs. If a deal were to happen and if I was Rick Hahn, I would ask for Lance McCullers in any deal. That would provide the Sox with a nice RHP to put in the rotation, and a power arm. His ceiling is a #2 but he can be a way above average #3 or back end guy. But things are going well for the Sox at the moment. Edited May 19, 201510 yr by Joshua Strong
May 19, 201510 yr I'm sure they started scouting him when things were going pretty bad around here. Jeff's not going anywhere.
May 20, 201510 yr He's gunna be a free agent thus year, can't hurt to scout him even if a deal isn't made or the sox stay in the race.
May 20, 201510 yr I'd trade him to the Royals in a deal involving Colon and maybe two good minor league pitchers.

May 20, 201510 yr QUOTE (kitekrazy @ May 19, 2015 -> 10:54 PM) Sox need a catcher in the worst way. Not another one who can't hit, though.
May 20, 201510 yr Don't see where the Padres can afford to trade Norris when he's playing so well and turn over the position in the middle of the season to an unproven rookie, no matter how highly touted Hedges is. Seems like an off-season move. Kind of the same debate the Cubs must be having internally about dealing Castro mid-season. Edited May 20, 201510 yr by caulfield12
May 20, 201510 yr Good, scout him. You never know when the season could turn sour again, may as well start making some connections. I'd like 3B Colin Moran and OF Derek Fisher are two realistic guys I'd love to get back.

I'd like 3B Colin Moran and OF Derek Fisher are two realistic guys I'd love to get back. Why not just go for Domingo Santana or Tucker (one of them) while you're at it...? Tucker and Moran seems not too far off. Or Singleton (with 75-85% of his salary subsidized) and Moran OR Tucker.
May 20, 201510 yr Wonder if any potential contract negotiations will come into play here, although Samardjiza and his agent would most likely wait til the off-season. I don't mind the idea of a trade, if you get some real good young pieces back that are ready to contribute now, especially on the pitching side of things.
May 20, 201510 yr QUOTE (GreenSox @ May 19, 2015 -> 11:34 PM) Not another one who can't hit, though. Not Castro, but maybe that other kid they have (can't remember if he was called up).
May 20, 201510 yr If the White Sox are in contention they are much more likely to add than subtract. They'll just play out the year and take the comp pick for Samardzija if they can't sign him.
May 20, 201510 yr QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ May 20, 2015 -> 06:56 AM) Not Castro, but maybe that other kid they have (can't remember if he was called up). Max Stassi?
May 20, 201510 yr QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ May 20, 2015 -> 08:54 AM) Can we just get Semien back? He's hitting well, but everyone complaining about defense would have a hard time with him and his 15 errors at SS.
