GGajewski18 Posted December 21, 2016 Author Share Posted December 21, 2016 Vicente: What kind of prospects Pirates have to offer to get Quintana? Dave Cameron: Would imagine Chicago would want some kind of package built around two of Meadows, Bell, or Glasnow, with some other stuff involved. I'm drooling if this were the case. Of the 3 there, which 2 would you choose? What other pieces would be included with those other 2? For me, I'd easily go Meadows and Bell with Hayes and Escobar as the final pieces. Although, I could see the Pirates be pushing Glasnow and Bell/Meadows plus others because Q would essentially replace him in the rotation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Dec 21, 2016 -> 03:13 PM) Assuming Q gets traded, we'll only have one guy guaranteed a spot in our rotation in Rodon. Right now, the only near major league ready guys are Giolito, Lopez, & Fulmer. Once June comes along and if these guys prove they are ready, we'll make room for them. The next wave of guys (Kopech, Adams, Stephens) will be starting the year in AA and probably be ready for a shot at the big leagues until mid 2018 best case scenario. Even if the four guys I previously mentioned all stay healthy and are showing signs of becoming productive major league starters, which is unlikely IMO, we'd still have room for one of these AA arms to crack the rotation. And in the unlikely event we're overloaded with pitching, we can move some of these guys for a bat. I get what you're saying Balta, but I don't think our pitching depth in the upper minors is as overloaded as you think. I don't think it is overloaded yet...but I think it becomes overloaded if you add in one more MLB-ready guy right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldsox Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 I heard that Meadows is unavailable, because they still expect to trade McCutchen, and Meadows would be the heir apparent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSoxFanMike Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 I'm so on board with this. Mets get - McCutchen, Robertson Pirates get - Q, Dominic Smith, Nate Jones Sox get - Conforto, Meadows, Bell, Newman, Dunn That would be fair for everyone IMO.

peppers312 Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 is it at all possible that a sub-par White Sox team affects Quintana's value if he goes into the season as the #1? i mean what if the wheels come off because of a crappy team surrounding him and he has a bad year...?

ChiSox59 Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 After reading around, sounds like a lot of Pittsburgh fans think Keller is as good of a prospect as Glasnow, just may not be recognized nationally as such yet. Meadows, Bell, Keller and Elias Diaz would have me very happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but that's thinking wayyyy too much. Either trade him now, in this perfect market for him, or let him do his thing per usual with the Sox. He'll be fine.

FIP is a stat that takes team defense into account when evaluating a pitcher Quintana's career FIP of 3.47 is excellent He is certainly a top 20 mlb starting pitcher, no matter how you slice it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
