SoCalChiSox Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 I'm not giving up Vaughn and Madrigal for Blake Snell or Mike Clevinger so if they both got dealt for Price, Nintendo and some cash I will literally be rooting for the entire FO to burn in hell. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
he gone. Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Sox should stay VERY clear of this deal in any way. But since it makes no sense we'll probably end up doing it. Just like Mazara. IF we want to really take the steps of being the next "it" team then we should probably refrain from bailing out bad contracts from our competition while getting back a still expensive, over the hill pitcher.. even if its $51mm over 3 years - that's the type of contract that can land you a better, younger David Price in FA. And why JBJ? $11mm in FA again can do you better. And you help out the BoSox in possibly retaining Betts. Keep your $40-50mm that you'd pay Price, plus $11mm to JBJ and bank it towards 2 years on the Betts contract next offseason. That way when some team offers 8/260 and we offer 6/200 for Betts we don't have an excuse... Also Bientiendi is overrated. Very White Sox move though - so can't wait for it. Hahn will find a way to screw this up before it even gets fun. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mazara could theoretically DH. Don’t really see the fit with Benintendi either, tho I guess I’d you’re forcing me to take Price and cash id take him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2Jimmy0 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 They aren't trading Madrigal and Vaughn. Not this off-season. Carry on. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuliusO1274 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Eventually some of these prospects will likely be traded but they should save them to be packed in deals that get us a better player than Price. I would hate to see our trade chips wasted on him. Price has not been staying heathy the past few years either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vulture Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Mazara trade does make sense, though. He's better than any RFer we currently have, won't block Adolfo or Rutherford if they put it together in the next year or two, or prevent the acquisition of a better RFer in the near future, when some who can actually play a legit RF will be available. If he shows any improvement, he should be tradeable as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense to me. Get Happ and mid-level prospect. Gives you a guy for this year but doesn’t tie up salary for a few years out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really unfortunate that Burdi, Dunning, Lambert, Burger, Adolfo, and Basabe were all either hurt for most of the season or completely out of commission. That's a lot of potential trade chips that are unproven and all coming off injuries. Leaves such a select few amount of resources to work with via trades. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could have a full MLB roster of top talents AND a super deep farm of top talent this time next year. 2020 might end up being Christmas all year.

All depends on the cash subsidy....they're not going to send $60+ million, and Collins is our only expendable prospect, all things considered.

GreenSox Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 (edited) 6 hours ago, Dick Allen said: I've ripped KW, RH as much as anyone, but there is no chance they would trade Madrigal and Vaughn in the same deal, let alone for a 35 year old injured pticher, unless they were guaranteed the ALC title the next 3 or 4 years. One of those for the 35 year old injured pitcher is too many. Them liking Price - who, although in decline, was one of the best pitchers in baseball several years ago - is the way the White Sox FO has viewed the game for a long time. Maybe Rutherford - if they must have Price. Edited December 18, 2019 by GreenSox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's probably not going to get you more than a 4-5 starter would, so they would need to chip in a lot. I don't know if its worth it for them.

The guy is done Because if we aren't going to spend the money for Ryu there are no other options who have any chance of being a #2-#3 starter without trading away someone like Robert, and we desperately need one right now without trading away an untradeable player. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
