skooch Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 If Heuer is being dealt that means there's most likely a SP coming back in return. The plan could be Rodon and Lopez to the pen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Heuer is to be traded, I think that adds high leverage reliever to the list of the Sox needs. Heuer + other stuff for Marte + Bradley? Still think whatever deal Cishek is referring to is for a starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Brewers have the third lowest position player fWAR in baseball this year. They have a stars and scrubs thing going on that's not too dissimilar from what the White Sox were doing before they started the rebuild in 2016. The Brewers have just happened to be more successful than the White Sox ever were doing that. They probably are looking for more of a retool than a rebuild like the Sox had to do. I don't really know what the Sox have to offer on the position player side other than Vaughn and I would be pretty bummed to see him be traded even for someone as good as Woodruff.

fathom Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 If the Brewers are trading Woodruff, they should demand Vaughn IMO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that one rando said Kopech + Vaughn for Woodruff + Hader. If you throw in Heuer, Collins, and some other pieces (Adolfo, Lopez) is that enough? Would we want to make that trade?

southsider2k5 Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 The Padres went through all that to build that system and are ready to burn it d9wn for a taste of success. It's exactly what I want the Sox to avoid. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The White Sox just have to be serious about getting a real RF in the off-season if they do that since I would guess that Encarnacion isn't getting his option picked up so you'll have two holes to fill in the lineup. They could mix and match at DH (especially if they do somehow keep McCann around) easy enough with internal options, but Mazara needs to go.

I think there's still a good chance that he falls far short of his billing. I would much rather include him and get Woodruff in return who is controllable until 2025, than include Dunning and get two years of Lance Lynn. Thank you. Do not trade Dunning. Kopech has a lot of issues to work through. Dombrowski and the Red Sox org concluded this guy was not worth the trouble so they peddled him off on Kenny-Hahn. Oh to have Clevinger start one of those games in Minny. Edited August 31, 2020 by GradMc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a fan of their moves but not burning it down imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
