soxforlife05 Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 (edited) QUOTE (captain54 @ Jul 28, 2016 -> 12:25 AM) According to Kenny Williams, no one is sure in the organization if they are buyers or sellers, or a combination of. I guess they are waiting for the outcome of the Cubs series. Sweep = Buyers. 3 of 4 = Buyers. Split = combo of buyer/seller. Split Cub series & Win Minny series = Buyers I'm pretty confident they are standing pat or will make a minor selling move. I think they want to sell more but the buyers are being stubborn with prospects. Edited July 28, 2016 by soxforlife05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Split Cub series & Win Minny series = Buyers I think it is silly to base your organizations future on two series victories. They need to look at the big picture-- something they rarely do. I have zero faith Hahn/KW will make the best decision- directionally for this organization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, making bad moves is a huge mistake for this organization. They should only make moves that "on paper" improve the team. There is a much bigger trade market in the offseason but usually more desperate traders now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Sacamano Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jul 28, 2016 -> 07:28 AM) Making no moves is a huge mistake for this organization. Agreed. However I think they only deal one of Shields/Gonzalez inserting Ranaudo into the rotation and Robertson and/or Duke. So 3 trades max. I think they try to retool in the offseason and try to compete in 2017 if they don't get a huge haul for Sale or Quintana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
