shipps Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 I know a lot of you arent convinced by a lot of the Cubs guys but I will take a deal sending Q to the Cubs for Schwarber, Baez, Almora and a couple prospects you like. The reason why I would take that deal in a second is that I am convinced on those first two guys. They are sure bets IMO. They are both exactly what the Sox need. We will totally miss Q and will probably struggle for a while to find a number two equal to his quality, but damn, Schwarber and Baez would be the heart of our lineup for a long time. Their ability and their attitudes are ideal for this team right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still don't think we trade Quintana or Sale there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't see the Sox dealing with the Cubs. There really isn't a reason not to, but it would surprise the hell out of me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would be getting exactly what you need and looking at the trade 3 years from now and thinking, damn we won that deal, because Schwarber and Baez will be the centerpieces of your offense and producing huge numbers.

Schwarber is obviously an AL type player and Baez isnt what is considered their core players. I dont have to tell you about Q and his greatness and he would be cost controlled to fill in for Arietta when he leaves for a massive contract.

They wouldn't give up Baez for Tyson Ross last year when he had considerably less value than he does now, and they also don't need a SP, they're pretty well set there through at least the end of 2017. I just don't see how it makes any sense for them to do it right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bighurt574 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Can't see the Cubs doing that deal. As far as the postseason rotation, Q isn't even that big of an upgrade for them over what they already have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nor should it. You need to let that die right now. For the right package, you trade either Sale or Quintana. The stupidest thing any White Sox management person could do would be to let these guys reach the end of their contracts without moving them first.
