QUOTE (iamshack @ Nov 30, 2014 -> 03:25 PM) Yeah, see if Dan Snyder will take Cutler off our hands. Remember when the Redskins offered the 5th overall pick and Rocky Macintosh for Briggs. That was in Briggs prime before his first contract dispute I believe. I'd take a 2nd for Cutler.

Peter Gammons @pgammo · 20h 20 hours ago With the White Red, Red Sox, Rangers, others talking Samadzija, AL GM says "there is no way he will sign and not go to free agency."

Bo Pelini out at Nebraska. Wow.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Nov 30, 2014 -> 09:15 AM) If anything it sounds like oakland wants Upton and gattis. So if Samardzija goes to the sox and those two to oakland, what would the sox need to send to atlanta? It would not be much I imagine because the A's would be getting the most in the deal. Definitely not Anderson.

QUOTE (flavum @ Nov 30, 2014 -> 09:08 AM) Just a thought... Maybe the A's and Sox have a deal in place already, but they're trying to get the Braves or other teams involved in a bigger trade. And if they can't get it done, they'll just deal with each other and move on. Sounds like the A's and Braves are talking Upton and Gattis too, without Samardzija, so who the hell knows anymore. Yeah, today is still part of the weekend, so Benson can still be right regarding his tweet from couple days ago. I'd still love Shark and Upton on this team. I'd give up Anderson for that.

Buster Olney @Buster_ESPN · 19h 19 hours ago A White Sox player that Oakland has evaluated is middle infielder Marcus Semien: http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/s/semiema01.shtml … 24 years old, Cal product. I don't know if the was posted, but this was from yesterday. I'm trying to find another retweet someone had that said that an AL scout said there is no way Jeff would sign an extension without testing free agency.

ChiTribSports ‏@ChiTribSports 2h2 hours ago White Sox interested in Jeff Samardzija, but price may prove too high http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/break....html?track=rss … Something we already knew

lololol

The comments under the mlbtraderumors page is comical.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Nov 29, 2014 -> 12:10 PM) My only non-trade would be rodon. Maybe adams. Adams and Rodon can't be traded this off season anyway. Correct, since thy were from this past draft?

QUOTE (StRoostifer @ Nov 29, 2014 -> 12:03 PM) Still makes no sense in that it leaves the Sox still looking for another outfielder. Agreed. Eaton isn't going anywhere. He's another good year from a contract extension.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Nov 29, 2014 -> 11:59 AM) With pitchers, you never know. Very true. But he does have a clean bill of health, track record wise.

QUOTE (Knuckles @ Nov 29, 2014 -> 11:45 AM) Thought it's about winning championships... Exactly, didn't know we were the Cubs....

QUOTE (Jake @ Nov 29, 2014 -> 11:37 AM) Samardzija WAR by year: 0.5 -0.4 -0.5 0.6 2.8 2.6 4.1 This would be like trading for Gavin Floyd in 2010/11, except Floyd was better Those first 4 seasons is when he was a reliever. Last 3 when a starter full time. You are way off here.

QUOTE (Jake @ Nov 29, 2014 -> 11:27 AM) Samardzija isn't even that good, for Christ's sake He's pretty good....

QUOTE (ptatc @ Nov 29, 2014 -> 11:22 AM) I think you far over valuing Anderson. I'm not saying he can't be a star but he is a years from even being brought to chicago. You don't trade a consensus top 100 prospect for a one year rental starting pitcher unless he signs an extension. Even with that, I would be pissed I think. Give me Samardzija and Upton, different story. Gotta give to get.

Like I said earlier, only way I trade Anderson is if Shark and Upton is coming to the Sox.

QUOTE (SoCalSox @ Nov 29, 2014 -> 11:11 AM) Some dude on Twitter that I was told has sources with the A's is insisting that BOTH Alexei and Eaton are in this deal. Can anyone talk me off the ledge here? Trading Eaton for a 1 year rental? Lol that dude obviously has been drinking this morning.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Nov 29, 2014 -> 11:04 AM) So the question is did he delete it because he realized he would cause a s*** storm and he meant something else, or because he is really traded and is not supposed to let it go public until it is announced. If he is gone, and Samardjia is all that is coming back, this waiting years to build a foundation is BS. He is the one guy the drafted who actually seems to be developing. Agreed. But I think if he is involved, it has to be something like Samardzija/Reddick, Samrdzija/Cook, Samardzija/Doolittle, Samardzija/Upton. Those are the only options where I can fathom losing Anderson for. If it were me, the only deal I would include Anderson in is Samardzija/Upton.

QUOTE (StRoostifer @ Nov 29, 2014 -> 10:41 AM) I wonder if this is the potential three way the Sox were reportedly in on at the trade deadline. If I had to chose, gimme Upton with an extension over Samardjiza. I know Upton is less likely but a 3,4,5 of Abreu, LaRoche, Upton is pretty solid. One can dream right... I'd prefer Upton to Shark too. Bare and Upton hitting 3-4 for 5+ years has me drooling.

Man, I am nervous right now. Please be Shark and Upton if anything is going down :pray :pray

Lets go Illinois! Lets be bowl eligible!!

QUOTE (scs787 @ Nov 29, 2014 -> 10:59 AM) Wait a second.... What's Andersons twitter? I'm on @TimAnderson7 and am seeing none of this. He deleted the tweet.

QUOTE (flavum @ Nov 29, 2014 -> 10:55 AM) Agreed! They say a watched pot doesn't boil, so.... Sox: Justin Upton, Jeff Samardzija A's: Gattis, Anderson, others Braves: A's prospects, Sox prospects (Semien to start at 2B?)
