Maybe Larry King actually got a tip from someone in the Dodger's upper management. I strongly believe that the White Sox and Dodgers will make a blockbuster deal soon. I think the moving parts will be more than just Puig and Quintana, but those will be the main pieces in this deal. Even if we can't get Seager (sigh!), I would LOVE to acquire Austin Barnes as well.

I much prefer a Dodger deal now that Hoffman was traded by Jays.

I've always wanted a Dodgers Sox deal. We match up well. It was almost assuredly be a blockbuster and will be sooner than later. Just connect the dots. Larry king says don't be surprised if these two make a deal before the deadline. Dodgers a few days ago say Puig won't be moved. Now say he will. Phil Rogers goes on Rundown and brings up COL as a possible match. Then after the game starts talking about Puig and Quintana. This move will happen quickly in my opinion. I wouldn't be shocked if we got one more start out of Quintana first though.

I want to do one too...for Seager.

now that it appears the team is going to go in another direction. i can see the sox overpaying for what they need. so getting seager, while it is a great idea, he is a prospect and not really a player the sox needs now.

 

now is the kw, over paying rein will now start again.

Would dodgers want prospects for Puig? I would have guessed a cespedes/lester type deal.

How much should we be concerned about Puig's drop in numbers this year? His OPS is only 0.14 points above Eaton's. I wouldn't want to trade Q for him if he's not going to at least be 0.820+

Re-opening this, not sure why it was closed. Just because Dodgers say they don't want to trade him doesn't mean they won't. See: Tulo.

The #Dodgers have let teams know that Yasiel Puig is available in the right deal, but teams showing much more interest in their prospects.

 

Actually the latest thing I heard is that he was available again.

@BillShaikin: Mattingly on Puig trade rumors and #Dodgers front office: "If something was really going on, they would tell me."

 

 

So many games going on right now

From Dave Cameron's Fangraphs chat today:

 

If Puig does e moved this winter what type of package would he get? And what are some likely landing spots?

 

Dave Cameron: My guess is that the Dodgers will use him to land a different MLB player (or players) they like. I don’t see him getting moved for prospects, but I could see them trying to use him to go get another young cost-controlled SP. Maybe they offer him to the White Sox for Quintana and something?

 

 

Cameron is a pretty well connected guy. This may just be throwing s*** at the wall to see if it sticks, but there seems to be a little smoke here in regards to a Puig for Quintana swap.

Where he is wrong is the Quintanta + something. It would be Puig + something for Quintana. Q remains one of the most underrated players in the game.

17th in fWAR right behind Lester and Cole. 9th last year, tied with Sale. But it'd be Q+ apparently, because baseball writers can't bother to do basic research.

 

If anything, it'd be something like EJ + prospects for Puig, which I doubt the Dodgers take.

I am passionately against trading Q for Puig, but realize something in that vein may be necessary to acquire an elite bat. I just don't think Puig is an elite bat, and he is a total asshat.

Is he? Maybe, but I've never known him as somebody who breaks trades or anything. I think he's just speculating.

I'm not moving Quintana. I'd do Montas, EJ and Micah.

Whoa! Might as well throw in Anderson & get Trout.

Aren't you the guy that was super gungho for a Q-Puig swap at the deadline?
