bmags Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I'd love to add Puig. Would actually suddenly be a decent-to-good defensive team with Alexei turned around, Saladino at 3b, and Avi removed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's me connecting the dots. I know for a fact KW is itching. On rundown today Phil Rogers mentioned COL and CWS as a match for maybe Tulo or CarGo and threw out Tim andersons name.

Bigsoxhurt35 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I want CarGo. Dude is f***ing hot right now. The pitch he hit a home run late against the Cubs tonight was ridonkulous! Golfed it out to RF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have every amount of faith in KW to trade away a talent like Rodon is some effort to get a bat solely based on a 5 game spree from a sub .500 team.

Bigsoxhurt35 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 If we go for CarGo or Tulo it's moving a guy like Q which I wouldn't move him for CarGo. I'd try to move something else for him. Would be nuts if KW tried to get both of them. Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there's any way they move Q . And even trading Shark now especially right before his next start tomorrow in the middle of a streak would devastate the team moral I think. This is going right down to the wire. I think its possible to match up with the Dodgers. Maybe Shark , Eric Johnson and others for Puig. It would generate huge buzz around the Sox and their fanbase. Edit: Ok my bad Have to keep Johnson to replace Shark . But I still think IF there's a trade and who the hell knows at this point it could be a big deal with lots of moving pieces but not Q . Losing Shark and Q would be a huge loss. Edited July 28, 2015 by CaliSoxFanViaSWside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh if we could package Shark for Puig I'd love it. Issue is Puig is cost controlled. Shark is a rental. Doesn't match up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamshack Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I've got no interest in moving Q. I don't even want to move Shark. We should be able to get a bat if we take on some money in the short term without moving too much of the farm. Given what we've seen from Sanchez and Saladino, Micah is looking like the odd man out to me. My guess is something like MJ and Spencer Adams are the guys they are willing to move.

Trading Tim Anderson for CarGo would be a horrific move. I'd do Avi or some lesser prospects if the Rockies ate a little bit of salary, but no way in hell am I trading my #1 prospect for him. As for Tulo, he's got $98M left in guaranteed money after this season, is over 30, & never is healthy. He's way too risky of an acquisition for us, especially if he's going to cost a s***load of talent (Anderson being just one of many pieces).

I'm not guessing that teams are lining up to take some of the Rockies hitters and their salaries. Bmags was right on. A few years ago, Cargo/Tulo were primetime players...now, you're looking at being on the wrong end of some of these contracts. I'd take the gamble with Cargo. Not so much with Tulowitzki.
