Chicago White Sox Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 24, 2016 -> 10:16 AM) Levine mentioned the Nationals as maybe having interest. They have enough prospects to make a deal. To me, the only teams with a realistic shot at Sale are the Red Sox, Dodgers, Pirates, Nationals, Astros, & Rangers. The Cubs obviously have the talent too, but don't see us doing a deal with them. Red Sox Moncada Benintendi Devers Kopech E.

I agree, I think Q's extra year of control is equal to sale's perceived dominance, and if both get moved the packages will rival one another. The question becomes do you move Eaton and Abreu as well or can they anchor your future core with Collins and Anderson. Eaton will be 29/30 if they sell off and we compete in 2 to 3 years Abreu will be 31/32. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eaton will be 29/30 if they sell off and we compete in 2 to 3 years Abreu will be 31/32. IMO, you hold onto to Eaton & Abreu for now. Eaton has a ton of control left and can always be moved at a later date. And I wouldn't deal Abreu during a down season, we're better off starting off 2017 with him at 1B/DH and hoping he rebounds.

One source says given the interest in closer David Robertson, it's very likely he is traded. Brian Bilek @BrianBilek_ 3m3 minutes ago As reported earlier by @barstoolWSD, this source offered secondary confirmation that #RedSox have serious interest in David Robertson. Brian Bilek @BrianBilek_ 3m3 minutes ago Source says not to rule out a mega deal with #RedSox acquiring both David Roberston and Jose Quintana. #Dodgers hot on Quintana as well. Brian Bilek @BrianBilek_ 4m4 minutes ago #RedSox Dave Dombrowksi is living up to his reputation. One in the know expects his offer to best #Dodgers offer in Quintana sweepstakes.

Need an unprecedented haul for Sale. He stays unless you receive it. You don't just decide to move both guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He stays unless you receive it. You don't just decide to move both guys. But the rationale behind moving one should lead you to moving the other. Not saying it gets done by the deadline but both should go if one is moved. If you move Q and wait til the offseason to move Sale, that's fine and dandy but at the end of the day, what the heck's the point of keeping one or the other if we're probably gonna be a dumpster fire for a couple years?

Exactly, Q would likely be the one to remain if any because he has one more year of control, but if the sox are going to stop the half measures they should move everyone sans Abreu (down year unless he picks it up these next 9 days) and Eaton locked up with options till '21 unless they're blown away. Eaton is on pace for 4.5WAR and i could see him being a fit with the Astros and bringing back an impressive haul as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
