You like that guy way too much.

To me, it seems like too much of a risk for the Cubs to get him. It's not like they need more offense.

Can we keep this thread about Lawrie?

He's my favorite non sox player, therefore don't want to see him on a rival. I've always liked the guy.

He is less riskier than the free agents though as he is only locked in for two years. If all they need to give up is Soler, I think it is a done deal.

 

 

My guess is we might get this trade done for Lawrie. But, we don't need to overpay with our good young talent, who can help our own team. It might be painful, but there were a lot of posters, who in the past dumped on KW for draining our farm system. We start to build it up again and I have seen some calling for it to be drained again. Maybe rather than Lawrie we look at Will Middlebrooks? There was a time we had our sights on him I believe. I am not calling for this deal, but just trying to point out that we have some options including internal.

Just spent the last hour and a half taking an exam. Really thought something would have happened in that time.

The Cubs aren't a rival.

I'm holding onto the delusion that the holdup here might be contingent on the Sox getting something done with an outfielder, either via free agency or trade.

I hope he doesn't come to the Sox.

Not sure if this has been addressed in this thread, but why is Oakland trading Lawrie?

They picked up Jed Lowrie to play 3B

They had their manager on mlb network last night. He made it seem like they had a glutton of corner guys when they brought in someone recently. Lawrie is thought to bring back the biggest return so if they trade one its him.

OK, but Lawrie plays 2B also, and Sogard's bat looks pretty awful at a quick glance.

I think they picked him up to play 2B. Valencia at third.

I think they have Jed Lowrie or Danny Valencia.
