southsider2k5 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Out of all of the guys who might (realistically anyway) get dealt from the White Sox in the next two weeks, Soria might have the highest value. What kind of returns do people think we could get for him? Any names out there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSL team needs some help that's all I got. Maybe a decent AA player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago White Sox Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 I think we get an org top 10 guy, but one in the back half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BamaDoc Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 I think it will also come down to if we include money in the deal. Money may be able to sweeten the return as several contenders are also trying to stay under the salary tax cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Abreu Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 It would be kind of annoying if we didn't include money in the deal. It's not like we can't afford to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see salary being a big deal either way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Who are the top relievers that are going to be available? He’s certaintly not an elite closer or anything like that, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Soria is one of the better guys that can be had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frogsplash31 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Somewhere between 10-15 org. Prospect. Someone like Booker or Burr for the Sox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Britton for sure, Brad Hand possibly...then maybe Iglesias from CIN, after that kind of tough since Colome and Herrera were already moved. I'm probably forgetting a guy or two, but those were the guys that came to my mind right away. Edited July 18, 2018 by Sleepy Harold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Parkman Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 I don't think the Sox are getting any prospects currently of note for any of their current MLB players. Their best bet to score impact talent is to take a gamble similarly to the Padres on Tatis Jr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s honestly been pretty damn good this year and his $10M option for 2019 actually might be seen as a positive now. We obviously won’t get a top 100 type for him, but I think a 45 FV prospect with some upside is possible. We also might be able to package him with Avalin or Cedeno to get a slightly better return.

ChiSoxJon Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Depending on the org. I think Soria can net a 10-15 guy Look at what Melky got last year as a rental or Swarzak or Jennings...There's hope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone view him as our longterm guy at catcher? He could be valuable to a contending team as a backup or replace a starter who is not getting it done as to who would immediately replace him well we could always just do a swap and take someone else backup. Pretty much any team could use Omar as a backup but as a starter the Redsox could use an upgrade. The Brewers who are all in desperately need help there. The Nationals really need some help. There should be a strong market. Why not move him now? We have Castillo coming back in August anyways and signed for another year. Zack Collins will probably be ready at some point next season. Why hold onto him? He'll have some value now is the time to take advantage of that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenSox Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Omar's OPS is .771 and rising; he is under 4 years of control. That's a higher OPS than Flowers ever had for the Sox and higher than AJ had except for 1 year. He walks like a maniac. What exactly are people looking for? And if they trade him...what are they going to get. An org's #19? To what end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's actually been quite good at the plate since Castillo went down, but he's still nothing special. Hard to be a solid back-up catcher when you suck balls at catching. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

username Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Fairly confident they’ll net a good return for Soria. He’s a better pitcher than Duke, and Tilson was a solid return from a good farm. Same goes for Swarzak for Cordell. The option next year and fact that his peripherals have been elite for 2 years makes me think people are really undervaluing him Not going to get a top 100 guy but probably a very interesting prospect and maybe in the top 200 range. Would love to get someone blocked at 3B or catcher, or a near-ready reliever or back-end starter. Alternative is a younger lotto ticket. Also have to wonder if Soria gets packaged with someone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
