Dominikk85 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 I hope he doesn't rule it out. I understand there is a rivalry between sox and cubs fans and ut would hurt uf quintana is in a WS Parade but the cubs are not really a rival of the Sox (different league and division) and I could not care less if the cubs win 5 more championships if it means the sox win one. I'm not saying they should deal with the cubs but they should at least listen to offers and if the cubs make the best offer they should take it. Cubs really need a starter and I think they would be interested in quintana. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Over with the Cubs' rivalry. Deal away, roll the dice on Jimenez, Moncada, Robert and Adolfo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago White Sox Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 If Jimenez is on the table for sure. Can't pass up a top 5 or so prospect because of an inter-city rivalry, especially after the Cubs already ended their World Series drought.

caulfield12 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 (edited) Between Rodgers and Jimenez, who would you take first? SS and catcher are so key. We obviously can't get Turner, Seager, Correa, Lindor, etc. And Dansby Swanson has been a disaster this year, just like Timmy Anderson. Same with Bregman. Well, disappointing, at the very least. Tatis, Jr., haha? Russell and Baez are the obvious names. To get Jimenez and one of those two, who else do you give the Cubs? Kahnle? Swarzak? Holland? MiGo? Shields, writing off almost all of his remaining salary? Obvious Maddon connection there. Seems impossible to also get Candelario too, biting off a bit much.

The Sox aren't giving up on Anderson, so I'm not sure why you're listing off a group of major league shortstops that aren't available. If Hahn was smart, he'd tried to get Kieboom for Robertson to serve an insurance in case Anderson isn't working out in a few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tray Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Other teams like the Astros, the Yankees, and the Brewers match up better with the White Sox for Quintana. The Cubs would have to blow those teams away with a package of prospects to get Quintana, and that obviously is unlikely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soha Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 QUOTE (miracleon35th @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 07:34 AM) Other teams like the Astros, the Yankees, and the Brewers match up better with the White Sox for Quintana. The Cubs would have to blow those teams away with a package of prospects to get Quintana, and that obviously is unlikely. If Eloy is on the table, then that probably qualifies as blowing other offers away. None of us know the answer to this question. I would hope they would deal with them. Its all about brining the Sox the best return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 The Cubs are such a good match if the teams are willing to deal. Honestly out of all of the teams out there, if the Cubs are willing to push top guys in, them, the Yankees, and the Braves are the top bidders out there.

Agree 100%, If the sox or cubs we're in a different town we would all be praying these 2 would make a trade. I was initially against it but with the reports of the offers not being too strong I have become okay with the Sox going across town to get their haul.

Bregman is not hitting bad, he just isn't hitting that well for a 3b. His wRC+ is 104 which is quite good for a shortstop. Bregman came up as a shortstop but had to be moved because second and short are blocked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
