The Red Sox are discussing a 3 way trade with them, I think he got his Sox mixed up.

Why not? I am sure you hear lots of White Sox news on the Kansas U golf beat.

Lawrence KS is a White Sox hotbed.

#WhiteSox listening to "everything," source says. Have not completely ruled out Jeff Samardzija trade -- and open to adding, too.

Listening to everything but doing nothing.

Ozzie Guillen once smiled at a customer in an Applebees down there.

Looks like Cespedes is NYM bound. Upton is probably the most realistic acquisition at this point.

I think the KU kid had the color of his Sox mixed up. The Cubs, Padres and Red Sox were supposedly discussing 3 ways (and some trades as well).

All indications are the #Padres have nothing happening on Justin Upton. It appears he's staying put at deadline.

Well, nevermind.

Pay him to play meaningless games. That's a pretty expensive draft pick to hang on to. OTOH, considering this GM is pretty new, it would show others he won't cave at the end. Still , using these guys to try to increase the offer isn't exactly new.

Are we seriously standing pat? wow. 38 minutes left.

I think this is important. If you never stick to what you say, everyone will be able to call your bluff.

So what the f*** are the Padres doing?

Waiting for waivers or something? They had so many assets

Padres made a small deal

Read on mlbtraderumors and Heyman mentioned the Sox could express interest in Upton this winter.

No more bats from the NL please.

Atleast go for Heyward if you're going to go for an NL bat, Upton is not that good

if the sox will be outside the top 10, i would rather not waste a pick while signing a fa.

 

however, now if the player may be a great player. i really think that it might be worth the gamble. but the possibility of signing a draft pick, what an est 20 mil a yr contract for a hitter, and loosing a draft pick..... i don't know if the sox FO will go that route.

 

hitter - interesting names to key an eye on.

 

Jason Heyward

 

Gerardo Parra

 

Justin Upton

 

Delmon Young
