QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Feb 9, 2017 -> 08:09 AM) I don't need a Yankee Red Sox game that lasts 4 1/2 hours because Pedroia wants to readjust his gloves between every pitch. It isn't fine the way it is, it needs tweaking I don't know what games you're watching on a regular basis but most games aren't 4 1/2 hours.

QUOTE (SCCWS @ Feb 9, 2017 -> 08:13 AM) This is why we are done trading. Add another arm, get Moncada to go north from ST and we can compete for a wildcard. Hurry and get a bet down because Vegas odds will soon reflect our optimism. They're not competing for a wild card in 2017. C'mon now.

I don't understand why they need to speed up the game at all. It's fine the way it is. If people have short attention spans, then don't watch the game. No need to ruin it for everyone else.

Kristaps Porzingis is a generational talent? That might be a bit of a stretch.

If Q is traded before the season? 64-98 If Q is traded at the deadline? 68-94

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Feb 8, 2017 -> 01:53 PM) They don't have the pieces to get Jahlil Okafor. Why? The Pelicans gave the Sixers a journeyman center and a pick. The Bulls could've easily done that.

I was listening to the radio today and they were vehemently against the Bears trading for Jimmy G. I'd tend to agree. I think it'd be better if they drafted a QB instead of paying a premium for a 1 year rental (unless they tag/extend him).

Really wish the Bulls would've made a trade for Jahlil Okafor. I love his potential.

I'm excited to see the responses to this one. I really hope Giolito can progress this year, but I hope he's up by June at the very earliest. Not sure if he'll be on an innings limit but that could play a factor as well. My predictions - 4-6, 4.28 ERA, 88 K's, 1.32 WHIP, 8.6 K/9, and 1.8 WAR in 15 starts

I actually do like the idea of getting Koda Glover back in a deal. He's strictly a reliever but that's not necessarily a bad thing. His MILB stats are very impressive.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Feb 8, 2017 -> 12:55 PM) Red Sox sign Carlos Quentin. http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2017/02/red-...os-quentin.html Wtf lol lmao that's strange. Probably just Spring Training depth but I didn't see him as a fit there.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Feb 8, 2017 -> 11:31 AM) This is true. And if my aunt had balls she'd be my uncle. What if your uncle didn't have balls?

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Feb 8, 2017 -> 11:10 AM) Maybe they end up dealing Tanaka if he is doing good for prospects at the deadline to have more depth for a Q trade? Based on their trades last season, it seems like they're into that. I don't think it's impossible for them to have interest, I just don't see it until around mid-season. You mean so they could trade for Q and have control of him for several years and then resign Tanaka after the season is over? That's a good idea for them.

Anyone think Doug Fister might be a good fit if Q is traded?

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Feb 8, 2017 -> 10:19 AM) I wouldn't give that up if I were the Yankees. Why? Their rotation is absolutely horrific and they have no shot at winning anything right now.

Yankees fans are f***ing morons. They're arguing with me that giving up Frazier and Rutherford for Q is too much.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Feb 8, 2017 -> 09:10 AM) Agreed. Personally, I don't need Musgrove if it makes the rest of the package weaker on the position player side. This. It makes no sense to insist on Musgrove if the package would be better without his inclusion.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Feb 8, 2017 -> 08:04 AM) I have no information, but I do think today is a day something happens. My sources are telling me the same. I have a feeling that something will happen soon.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Feb 7, 2017 -> 08:46 PM) Very doubtful Yankees were ever that serious in Q. Not at the price of either Torres or Frazier anyway. They should be. Their rotation is awful.

I'm still hoping the Yankees enter the picture for Q again. A package led by Frazier and Rutherford would be pretty exciting.

If Washington really wanted to win in the window in which they have Harper, they'd do something. It doesn't seem like that's the case though which is extremely puzzling.

Mike Napoli probably going back to the Rangers.

QUOTE (flavum @ Feb 7, 2017 -> 11:59 AM) Robertson would be a good salary dump / way to get worse. Get a low level, lottery ticket. Robertson is not a salary dump at all IMO. He has some value now, with the potential for even more if he has a good 1st half next year.

The Chicago White Sox will be a 64 win team once Jose Guillermo Quintana is traded.

Juan Soto is another guy I like. He's super young but those are the kind of guys that could be ready when the Sox should be able to contend again.
