Bigsoxhurt35 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Rox have been my NL team for years because of CarGo. Would love to see Abreu if he's dealt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Sox love Hoffman. Not a fan of McMahon. Could see Sox liking Wall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Interesting to say the least. I like Abreu and presume the market has undervalued him as a whole. Will be interesting to see what we could get. I say that in the perspective that I think the stat junkies underrate the value of his bat (i.e., I find him an underrated player via WAR).

Leonard Zelig Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Yes, you would be obligated to change it to whoever he gets traded for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huge bounce back in the 2nd half. Yeah, Abreu had a fine season and I think he has worth, but not as much as 2014 Abreu or 2015 Abreu. Then you might get Rodgers.

Then you might get Rodgers. Fair enough. I do think WAR and Sabermetrics like it tend to underrate players of Abreu's mold- the .290-.300/25-35/100 type with below average defense.

PolishPrince34 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 No chance Rockies are trading Dahl. Too valuable and legit tools across the board. Murphy stock has risen this year. Plays solid defense and has improved his pitch framing. Strength is his hitting power. One of the better catching prospects. Will be Rockies starting catcher this year.

SoxAce Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 5, 2016 -> 10:06 PM) Sox love Hoffman. They certainly do. Definitely can see them asking for him as a starting point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
