Why are we trading for three OFs?

I'm glad you asked. You then flip one or two if them for infield help. You got rid of Alexei, LaRoche and Danks' contracts, right?

 

Maybe that gives us room to flip people to TB and get Evan Longoria.

I think we will see Sox sign asdrubal cabrera and Matsuda and be done lol

I'm probably one of the few, but I'm not opposed to the White Sox staying quiet(er) in free agency. My #1 focus continues to be rebuilding the minor league system and rebuilding it back. Having 3 draft picks in the first 50 or so picks is a good start, but they need to keep these picks and not be tempted on a free agent.

 

They have addressed the catcher spot, and have internal options at 2B (Sanchez) and SS (Saladino). These may not be exciting options or even guys they can win with long-term, but why not find out next season? Same with the OF - Tryce Thompson is a good defensive player, the White Sox were high on A.Garcia before his 2015 season and they still have La Roche under contract for next season.

 

I'm not saying to not make any moves, but avoid longer term deals, especially on stop-gap type players. If there's a player who is available who they believe can be part of a winning team beyond next season, I can support that, but I'd rather not lock myself into bad deals all to slightly improve.

 

So, who on the market (or in a trade) can complement the young pitching staff that the White Sox have built?

Dodgers aren't going to trade Urias, Puig and Pederson for Fernandez

 

Don't really like the Sox return either - oh it's a fair return, just not my cup of tea.

Rather trade Q for Puig and the 3B prospect. (which they wouldn't do either).

Didn't see it (still don't), my bad

Something has to go down tonight. It's been way too quiet on the Sox front.

It isn't San Diego like last year where a bunch when down late. I hope I am wrong

Totally boring.

I'm going to keep my expectations low of anything getting done tomorrow before GMs leave Thursday morning.

QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Dec 8, 2015 -> 06:02 PM)
White Sox spent a portion of the day talking internally about lining up a series of possible moves. Things could start to heat up.

I thought they had been doing that for the last 2 months.

It doesn't matter. There are always deals that happen over night at the winter meetings every year.

I think the Sox FO became constipated and fell asleep on the s***ter while reading Hayes' fluff articles.

 

White Sox.....

Must be absent.

Ha and you said I was on crack for my sale proposal...JFC lose two SPs and gain 3 OFs. What we do then to fill out the staff? What we do with Eaton Avi and Trayce?
