QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Feb 4, 2017 -> 12:16 PM) None taken dude. Negativity always outweighs positivity. Men feel better about themselves when they insult rather than praise so you are just typical of the gender. No offense dude. Are you trolling or just plain delusional?

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Feb 3, 2017 -> 04:14 PM) Sounds like the Astros owner is seeing those picks as a way to help replenish their farm after trading prospects away for a pitcher. Sounds about right since those picks cannot be traded at this time. Maybe those picks loosen up Luhnow's pucker enough to actually get a deal done for Q. His pucker? What kind of negotiator is Rick Hahn?

Nightengale with another speculative and cryptic tweet.. feeling frustrated with him

Rizzo wasn't so good when he was promoted either. I would be happy with Reed as a 3rd piece

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Feb 3, 2017 -> 08:01 AM) Prediction - Jose Guillermo Quintana is traded for Kyle Tucker, Francis Martes, Ramon Laureano, and the 75th pick on February 10th at EXACTLY 3:24 PM. My calculations say 4:36

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Feb 2, 2017 -> 11:46 PM) You're inferring, there's nothing explicit in the article. Nightengale is insinuating which is fun but there's nothing definitive here, he's just rehashing the 2 names that have been in the mainstream for awhile now. Bob isn't guessing. He wrote that Crain mentioned those two names when discussing starting pitching.

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Feb 1, 2017 -> 06:27 PM) Wonder if this has anything to do with how the Xmas eve deal fell apart. Doubt it considering they would have done the surgery a month ago

If they are indeed using him like this then they are going to have to throw him a bone. Yes Rangers might be interested, but the dudes credibility has spiraled downwards.

QUOTE (shipps @ Feb 1, 2017 -> 04:48 PM) If they are leveraging Houston they should have used the Pirates whom they have actually had some reportedly serious discussions with. Houston isn't in the NL Central anymore

We know that Tampa was interested in Profar last week. Could this be part of a three team deal assuming it isn't just leveraging for Houston? What deal makes sense for all teams?

Yuck

If you love this kind of stuff you should be doing an online OOTP league..

Maybe thread should be closed until theres some significant news

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Jan 31, 2017 -> 04:09 PM) You know what, you're exactly right. I don't think the Sox are that far away from competing, but they need another ace and a solid outfielder to replace Avi. Moncada, Kopech, Basabe, and Diaz for Chris Sale and Giolito, Lopez, and Dunning for Adam Eaton could get the Sox back in contention. What do you think? Absolutely not. Sale commands more trade value than that. Replace Diaz woth Devers and that maybe starts some dialogue. Also we arent going to trade Eaton.. LOL GET REAL

I will be happy if he becomes a 3-4 WAR as long as Kopech reaches his ceiling and one of Basabe or Diaz becomes an above average player.

With Robin out of the picture I would say Robertson would be better managed hopefully. I would be fine with allowing him to pitch to his capabilities and raise his trade value for the deadline or next offseason.

Easy to pick benintendi considering hes prqctically a major leaguer right now

81. Collins 71. Fulmer 46. Lopez 16. Kopech 12. Giolito 2. Moncada

My god Boston had a monster system before they traded most of their prospects away

Give us Vlad Jr

Brian Bilek‏ @BrianBilek_ "We had a deal fall apart on Christmas Eve." - Hahn kicking off the Saturday Q&A Must be the 3 way trade we heard about. Damn shame

So much for that

I want answers!

There has to be abother reason. I just cant see this as a trade. On the other hand they have to know this is going to raise many eyebrows. So why is he not there?
