Damn. Was hoping the Sox would get more.
ESPECIALLY if we're sending a PTBNL.
And where does De Aza go?
From what I've read, the Sox are only giving up Santiago and that's it. LAA is sending two players to AZ along with Trumbo.
So basically we traded Santiago for Eaton straight up and the rest of the trade was between AZ/LAA. Not a blockbuster for Sox fans but we have a leadoff guy now. I'm just glad it was Santiago and not Q. Wonder what else might be done this week?
QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Dec 10, 2013 -> 01:15 PM)
Right. Dbacks got screwed, Angels made out awesomely, and the Sox are kind of just in the middle somewhere.
Guess you could say the Sox got what they needed.
QUOTE (GreenSox @ Dec 10, 2013 -> 09:32 AM)
How about Sale for everyone good from Az.
No need for Quintana and Reed for those 2 big contracts.
Damn Green Sox, you received one hellified response to such a short and obviously funny comment you make here.
QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Dec 10, 2013 -> 12:19 PM)
If it's Q we better be getting Eaton, Davidson, Owings, and Kendrick.
That might be much but Kendrick, Eaton and one of Davidson/Owings is reasonable, IMO.

Bruce Levine tweeted that it could be Santiago or Quintana.
Don't like the idea of trading Q but I'll wait to see how this plays out.
QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ Dec 10, 2013 -> 12:05 PM)
Now hearing they're pushing for Quintana instead?
I guess he wont be hanging out at that Colombian restaurant in Rogers Park anymore...
Quintana for Eaton is crazy. Where ya hear that from Jose? I'm sure there's more to it.

FYI, Kenny said this: “We think that we are on the cusp of doing some other things that I think our fans are going to like,” White Sox executive vice president Ken Williams told MLB.com’s Scott Merkin."

Coming from KW, I'll take that with a huge grain of salt!

Not mad, there are lots of moving parts, we would just have to add in someone else. Get it done Hahn!
I'm thinking maybe an arm from the pen is possible. Come on Hahn, we lost 99 games and its Xmas!
QUOTE (Dunt @ Dec 10, 2013 -> 11:31 AM)
Would love it if Hahn could swoop out Eaton and Davidson somehow
That could be what's going on now, talks of what the Sox send to AZ with Santiago.maybe an arm from the pen?
QUOTE (southside hitman @ Dec 10, 2013 -> 11:28 AM)
No way the Dbacks give up Davidson, Skaggs, AND Eaton for Trumbo. It's stupid enough to give up Skaggs and Eaton for him
All I did was answer the question.relax.
Here ya go...

It doesn't say but he appears to be catcher seeing as how he has a caught stealing percentage. Like that he's a switch hitter!
Holding back on Tanaka could piss off the mlb and owners alike, curious if that would affect potential postings with that Japanese club in the future?
This means one less pitcher on the market if true. Could make teams more desperate for a Sox starter.
QUOTE (oldsox @ Dec 9, 2013 -> 05:47 PM)
He was awful with Rockies a year or two ago. He pitcheld like he was hurt, and he probably was.
Hahn has the right approach as far as not pushing him so let's hope for a full recovery and go from there.
