Haniger would be a great get. His inclusion would make taking on Seager's contract well worth it. The only issue is what the Sox would have to give up. The Mariners would probably want at least one good prospect in order to part with Haniger. I wonder if a deal with Basabe/Rutherford as the headliner with a secondary piece like Jordan Stephens or Fulmer would get it done.

I'll take Hamilton (to replace Engel), Shoemaker or Miller (give either one of them a chance to be the #5 starter), and Boxberger or Parker.

Since the Mariners are looking to rebuild and cut salaries, their next obvious move is to trade Kyle Seager, who is owed 57.5MM over the next 3 seasons. He didn't have a good season at all last year, but I'm wondering if the Sox should look into this if the Mariners are willing to include Mitch Haniger with him, like they did with Diaz in the Cano deal. For shits and giggles, let's say the Sox acquired those 2 and then signed Harper. Here is what the lineup could look like next year. Haniger CF Moncada 2B Harper RF Abreu 1B Palka DH Eloy LF Seager 3B Anderson SS Castillo C Thoughts?

I think it's more likely that they add a backup catcher on the cheap via free agency to hold down the fort until one of Zavala/Collins is ready.

I would be rioting in the streets if I was a Mets fan. The Mariners straight up fleeced them.

Obviously I was talking about the upper echelon guys like Harper and Machado.

They're most likely basing that prediction off the fact that the most expensive free agent contract the Sox have ever given anyone was $68 million, but there is no better time than right now to change that.

I didn't know Camargo had such a good season last year, but there's still no way I would give up on Robert right now.

Ken Rosenthal tweeted: "#Mariners have shown interest in shortstop J.P. Crawford as one piece from #Phillies in a possible deal for Jean Segura, sources tell The Athletic. Per @JSalisburyNBCS, PHI would still pursue Machado as a free agent (to play 3B) if they acquired Segura in a trade." They can have Machado. We'll take Harper.

That would be a really solid bullpen. I do agree that they should try to beef up the relief pitching as much as possible to take some pressure off of a young starting rotation.

Hahn said that they are not finished adding to the bullpen, and I would assume that free agency is probably the way they will go to get that next guy? Who do you think is a likely target? Jeurys Familia maybe?

What is so special about Camargo and Wilson? I think I'd much rather take a gamble on Robert's upside unless I'm missing something.

You want to trade Luis Robert for Camargo and Bryse Wilson?

7th inning: Jones 8th inning: Familia/Allen/Ottavino/Herrera 9th inning: Colomé That would be legit.

What about Nate Jones?

He broke the Shields trade before anyone else...that's all I can remember

Why do you guys take whitesoxdave seriously lol...he doesn't know any more than we do

I LOVE this. He was a bum against everyone except the Royals. Keep trimming the fat off this team. Hopefully Avi is next.

The Reds just non-tendered him...should the Sox be all over this? I'd take him over Engel in a heartbeat.

Jones/Colomé with Fry as the lefty is a solid start to this bullpen.

Narvaez is one of the worst defensive catchers I have ever seen. Any value he has with the bat is negated with his defense.

I don't know how anyone could complain about this. If Narvaez was still on the team in 2 years, this rebuild was fucked anyway.

I have no idea if this is legit or not, but the guy who tweeted says he got the info from a Mariners insider. @trentbooty "Colome to the White Sox, Segura to the Phillies, and Cano/Diaz to the Mets all could be announced tomorrow, according to a insider for the Mariners"

Non-tender Avi and Davidson, keep Leury.

Who else would be competition for these guys? The Cardinals? The Nationals? I don't buy that. Like I said, I think it's down to those 3 teams. The Sox have as good of a chance as anyone.
