Might as well go for Frazier.

Coming up next- Justin Upton?

Great! This team needs a player with energy! Well done Sox FO, now get back to work.

The Shuck stuff came from a fake account

 

Ok, good. It was funny to see that because the thought crossed my mind they could move him and just keep Cabrera, Thompson, Garcia and Eaton, and not really need JB.

 

if there was a hold up on the prospects involve, i wonder which prospects were involve org.

I thought we would have given up a lot more then that. I am more then happy with this deal.

This is awesome! Don't stop here though, load em up

That is hard to believe. I hope that's the deal. Wow!! Just Wow!!

Now, they can spend money on one big bat, and just go with Saladino and Sanchez as their keystone combo.

They shouldn't have to trade any one. Just sign a middle of the order bat, and they have a respectable offense.

There's absolutely no way you could be mad at this deal and what we gave up. You may not like the player but this isn't a bad deal. Hahn has turned Peavy into Avi, Montas, Rondon and JBW who now was dealt for Lawrie.

Nice move. Still need more work though.

A's fans are not happy.

Yes, this is 100% confirmed. This is the deal.

So glad we didn't give up much and the Sox are much improved but there is more to do!! Don't stop now boys!!

For reference, Wendelken was ranked #28 in the FutureSox prospect rankings, Zach Erwin was #16

 

if you use that as a ref, and it is a valid ref. the need of the team is now. what the value of the sp, esp after last nite trade between the braves and dback, sp are at a premium.

This is the best thing the Peavy trade has given us yet.

This stabilizes the Sox. Improves the team, smooths a real rough spot, and allows them to keep building.

 

 

@AdamSpankyEaton: Welcome @blawrie13 ! #WhiteSox #BoutDamnTime

Now trade for Frazier and sign Cespedes and Upton.

Well, at least we won't have to hear the local media mispronounce Wendelken for the next 5 years.

 

...but Lawrie is like Laurie.

I'm guessing people saw JB and just assumed shuck. Not sure why Oakland would want him.

 

But this is a great deal either way. Really surprised that's all it took

Actually, I just about forgot about JB Shuck being on the team.

 

But this is wonderful- I thought Oakland would definitely manage more than that from someone for Lawrie.

I like that Eaton is just as impatient as us lol

I am worried about those two on the same team but who knows, maybe they will be best buds
