Harry Chappas Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 My guess is the White Sox want Torres and want to deal with the Yankees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torres is not being moved by the Yankees, lets face it Pirates won't part with what it would take Braves or Astros make the most sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martes and Tucker are musts. Then two of Fischer, Reed, Perez, Whitley and Stubbs. I would personally be OK with no Martes, but I'd want something like Tucker, Fischer, Reed, Stubbs and Perez in that case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 QUOTE (steveno89 @ Mar 22, 2017 -> 03:38 PM) I still would say 90% chance that Quintana is on the White Sox roster by opening day Teams know the price, Sox have zero reason to budge I would have said 99% two days ago, but it is interesting that this is still coming up. Typically teams don't make major deals during the stretch from spring training until about the middle of June. But with the White Sox, they don't seem to care about those norms.

The only recent one I can think of is I believe the Craig Kimbrel trade from Atlanta to San Diego happening a day before the season started.

Wishful thinking No organization is going to send (5) top 15 organizational prospects in exchange for 1 player This has been talked about to death over the winter End of the day a potential deal will look like: 2 top 5 organizational prospects (that are top 50 overall talents) plus one or two more B level prospects to round out the deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's in the ballpark for me. Maybe sub Laureano for Fischer. I doubt the Astros would do a 5-for-1 though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he is a 1b but he seems like an interesting prospect to me. As a final deal sweetener? perhaps, but as a significant piece? No way His value is 100% tied to the bat, as he projects as a below average fielder with below average speed at first base Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might not be truly elite prospects, but they are the best in the Astros farm by a considerable margin The Astros have the farm to make a deal happen, but seem reluctant to pull the trigger at a time when they absolutely should go all in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Martes, Tucker, Reed, & Sierra. Give me those four guys and call it a deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BamaDoc Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Tucker + Reed+Whitley/F Perez + Laureano/Stubbs Reed has enjoyed a very nice spring. His MLB strikeouts might be like Moncada in depressing his value. He only had about 250 ab above AA and is 23 years old. Houston would get Q without giving up their prime pitching prospects but Sox would get a couple top 100 prospects and good depth in the package and 3 position prospects and a pitcher in the second/third wave of sox pitching prospects.

Chicago White Sox Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 I just don't see the Astros ponying up yet. I feel like they'll need a little bit of panick to ensue before they ultimately decide to pay the high price it will take to land Quintana. I think that's pretty crazy as they're a TOR starter away from being neck & neck with the Red Sox & Indians, but Luhnow is apparently overvaluing his prospects at the moment.

GreenSox Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 It looks like Hahn is making a push to move him prior to opening day. Makes sense. Spring training pitching is an all-you-eat buffet for AAAA hitters. You just can't make much of the hitting stats. Reed is fine as a throw-in, but he's got to show he can hit real pitching; and he's not in shape so it's not like we'd be getting a Konerko. He's a pudgy slugger type if he figures it out.
