Dominikk85 Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 If someone gets hurt the Sox can Stil make a trade in season. Yeah it might be a tad more expensive in terms of prospects but you will get a crusty old innings eater without giving up any of the top 5-6 prospects. Just don't give up a 17 yo who hasnt played a game as a lotto ticket:) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say most teams have this problem with number 6 and 7 starters. You use your best triple A starters or kopech for the time being until you find a trade partner. Most teams are not 7 deep even the best ones. Send Lopez down and have him work on stuff he still could be a number 5 in the waiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure a good number of teams have questions on their 5th never mind who is 6 and 7. Sox seem to have 5 pretty solid to start. Hopefully the Chicago weather doesn't affect them early on.
