Baron Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Feb 8, 2017 -> 05:37 PM) I just saw today's episode of MLB Network's show. I think it replays later. Nightengale was still saying that Jim Crane has 1 more move left in him and that he thinks Q or Gray is on Astros to start the season. So weird. I mean it sounds like Crane wants to make a move. But it all rests on Luhnow giving up the prospects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Bruce Levine was on the Score and is sticking with the Sox trading Quintana before reporting day. But he also said he was basing this on his own feelings, not inside information. I agree with him, but if it isn't tomorrow, I think we'll see Q pitching in the WBC as Sox property.

Not looking forward to following the Sox while crossing my fingers that Q lives up to expectations and stays healthy. I will make a sacrifice before every start he makes.

Chicago White Sox Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Dumb thought, but could Houston or another team be waiting until after the WBC to complete a trade?

Chicago White Sox Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 (edited) QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Feb 9, 2017 -> 07:57 PM) Why would he say that? He has a contract. Besides he doesn't come off as that kind of guy. Because he wants to represents his country in the World Baseball Classic. This event is very important to a lot of baseball players. I don't know the rules, but does he need permission from the Sox to pitch in the event? Edited February 10, 2017 by Chicago White Sox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that's kind of my point. If I were Luhnow and felt I was the only team actively involved in trade talks, I'd probably wait until after the WBC was completed to execute a trade. Might as well avoid any unnecessary risk if at all possible. Again, this is me just throwing out a dumb idea.

ChiSoxFanMike Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 It would be so White Sox if they agreed to a trade with Houston that was to be completed after the WBC only to have Q blow out his elbow in the tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y2Jimmy0 Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 This Phil Rogers piece from tonight says that the Astros have been unwilling to include to include Kyle Tucker in trade talks which is borderline insanity: http://m.mlb.com/news/article/215591558/wh...picid=151437456 It does explain why a deal hasn't been consummated if true.

That definitely makes the most sense and I actually remember some Astros fans stating he was the untouchable earlier this offseason. Well he's off limits, then there's no way in hell I'm doing a trade with Houston right now. I've been one of the biggest proponents of trying to get a deal done before the season, but if a guy like Kyle Tucker is off the table then we may have no choice but to wait.

pablo Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 I find it interesting that Rogers mentions the Dodgers and Bellinger. We haven't heard any rumors regarding the Dodgers and Q as they seem intent on keeping their prospects and refraining from the big deals (Dozier). The fact he mentions the Dodgers suggests the teams are at least talking, right? Unless he's just pulling it out of his a**. If the Dodgers are legitimately interested, I'd be all for waiting until the deadline to see if their pitching staff has fallen apart by then like I suspect. At that point, they might be willing to include Bellinger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
