Guys...the Sox aren't a lock to pick #1 next year. Don't get your hopes up.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Dec 8, 2016 -> 09:29 AM) That's a good thing. #TankForBeer #BeerMe #BlowForBeer (Seth Beer, projected #1 2018 draft pick) Lmao these hashtags are awesome.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Dec 8, 2016 -> 09:14 AM) Not necessarily. Sox and Mariners talked Viciedo til late afternoon on the last day a few years ago. If only that deal would've happened...lol.

Covey was pretty good in AA last year. Maybe the Sox see something in him that they can fix.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 09:03 PM) The two biggest chips are gone. We have one more major piece in Q, a solid piece in Jones, and then a whole lot of guys with zero to negative surplus value. You have one bite at the apple with the guys you have. After that, you are depending on the draft. But once you start actually examining the path, it isn't going to be as easy as everyone wants to believe. These deals are so incredibly vital as so many other doors won't be open to us. I think everyone was just so ready for a change, that any change will do. We aren't spending for a marquee free agent We aren't going crazy in Latin America We aren't going crazy in international free agency, even if we do, we will probably be outbid by someone with much deeper pockets. Jesus Christ you're unbearable tonight. Take a deep breath and log off.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 02:06 PM) Is something like this enough for Q: RHp Francis Martes, OF Kyle Tucker, 3B JD Davis, OF Jason Martin, LHP Reymin Guduan? Martes is #29 in baseball and their top prospect. Tucker is #50 overall. JD Davis is bat first 3B. Martin is tools flyer with big power in lower minors and Guduan is LH reliever that hits 100 with bad control. Replace Martin and Guduan with Reed and I'm in.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 02:04 PM) I think you guys are overestimating what the return may be for Eaton. I still think the Nats can do this without Turner. They could do it without Turner for just Eaton, but not for both Eaton and Q.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 02:01 PM) Watch the Sox use Nationals as leverage against the Cards lol for something like Reyes, Weaver, Kelly+ Getting Reyes would be f***ing amazing. I'd love Piscotty too but that ain't happening.

Q to Houston is what I'm hoping for. I don't know about Eaton.

The only way I see Washington getting both Q and Eaton is if they add a third team to the deal. They don't have enough for the Sox if Turner is untouchable.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 01:32 PM) I'd much rather do: Quintana to Houston for Martes, Tucker, Reed+ and Eaton to Washington for Robles, Lopez/Ross, and Severino I'd hate that Eaton deal.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 12:31 PM) Jon Heyman ‏@JonHeyman 3m3 minutes ago Word is CWS could be interested in P Martes and OF Hunter (and others) in astros talk for quintana Who is Hunter? Does he mean Tucker?

The Rockies seem like they want to compete. Deal them whoever they want for a package around Rodgers and Dahl and I'd be ECSTATIC.

Guillermo deserves better. His buddy and rotation made is already gone and off to greener pastures, this shouldn't be any different.

Noah Syndergaard Jr.

http://nesn.com/2016/12/chris-sale-raves-a...hing-at-fenway/ I'll be rooting for him. He'll always be one of my favorites.

I feel like Q will be traded sometime today. I bet the Sox are negotiating as we speak.

QUOTE (flavum @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 09:33 AM) Houston just makes too much sense. So does Pittsburgh.

QUOTE (Dunt @ Dec 7, 2016 -> 08:16 AM) Martes, Tucker, Perez, and Stubbs and I ship Q I want Reed too.

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 01:12 PM) Just another player, feel nothing for him compared to PK and Buehrle. He is similar to D. Rose where he should have been a legend in Chicago but immaturity got the best of them You're seriously going to compare cutting some jerseys to an alleged gang rape? C'mon man, you're better than that.

QUOTE (MEANS @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 01:12 PM) Dodgers showing interest in Frazier....keep it going RH Where did you see this? I'd take Verdugo and Calhoun for Todd.

I feel crushed, but cautiously optimistic that Hahn knows what he's doing.

QUOTE (Soxnfins @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 12:54 PM) Holy hell. I am so sorry big guy. Hang in there buddy. My condolences. Thanks man. I didn't know him well but it's still extremely sad. He had his whole life in front of him and now it's gone in an instant. On a side note, would someone like to predict the White Sox top 10 prospect list now? Moncada has to be #1, right?

This has been a cruddy day. Not only was Sale traded, but I just found out a kid in one of my classes passed away after an accident.

I can't help but being disappointed. It's not even about the return. It's the fact that the greatest pitcher in the history of the White Sox and my favorite player is no longer on the team.
