NWINFan Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 I think that Andrew Vaughn is one player the Sox shouldn't trade, Make some other deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These guys should learn to just say no, and try other avenues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Velasquez is indeed a starter... ...In La Liga Mexicana de Beisbol. That aside, Spotrac has him as the 4th-highest paid RP in the roster, which I used as my source. Either way, he'll have to be DFA'ed at some point. Edited April 10, 2022 by Two-Gun Pete 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texsox Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Marketing department. Let's start a rumor to sell tickets. Make it seem like we are going to sign some young talent. We need some ink and electrons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like Encarnacion, Eaton, Harrison, and Kelly. This team really goes for youth in their acquisitions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSoxJon Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Hope they're not dumb enough to do this...I'm still dealing with the pain of losing 8 years of Madrigal for a few weeks of the remains of Craig Kimbrel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenSox Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 I don't think Hahn has ever done a deal with the As without getting fleeced; and the As may not want to change precedent and do a deal without fleecing him, so I'll take a pass. But if they are serious about Montas, please scout a few of his starts first. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCalChiSox Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 I wish we had that extra year of service time. Now that he had a hot start, there's no way they can justify sending him down for a few weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

he gone. Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 My guess is that Hahn or an agent close with Sox leaked this. Basically - hey guys, get off my back. i checked in, this is what they wanted. it's not happening. I wonder what the Reds were asking for Gray. Sox should (And probably have) explore with the Marlins. That team has so much pitching depth its scary... Alcantara, Lopez, Rogers, Eleiser Hernandez, Luzardo, Meyer, Sixto Sanchez, Eury Perez, Edward Cabrera ... THATS NINE! DEEP! I'm not sure how you navigate the Cuban pipeline and Colas/Cespedes or their perceived value ... nor do I know what we could/would trade them ... but I'd quite literally take any single one of those guys. Based on what we need right of way + cost my wish list would be in this order: Eleiser Hernandez - probably one of the cheapest options to acquire and like his stuff. They can just slot in no issue internally Pablo Lopez - they were known to have him on the table in offseason. He's legit and would slot in right away on par with Cease or so Sixto Sanchez - roll of dice. maybe buy low candidate. his shoulder is really troubling, but if healthy he can slot in as an immediate impact arm. You just can't have any expectations of innings from him which is kinda what we need right now. Rogers - he's expensive. he's good. Alcantara - probably untouchable, that's why he's so low. I'd trade Vaugh for him .... and I wouldn't trade Vaughn for many. Eury Perez - he's Grayson Rodriguez ... he's 19? 20? He will be Jose Fernandez type household name soon. Hell, If the price was right I'd slot him right after Pablo Lopez ... he could probably be with the Sox by year end working in a Kopech type role last year Luzardo/Cabrera - i put them together. both have a wild streak. not the type of arm i want to rely on with where we are as a team. Meyer - he's great too, just costs a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sixto - not an option, broken and hurt again Rogers/Alcantara - untouchable so not an option Eury - 2/3 years away and untouchable so not an option Luzardo/Cabrera/Meyer - would cost Vaughn so not really worth it Lopez - would probably cost close to Vaughn so not an option bc we don't have something to trade close to Vaughn's price Hernandez - the only feasible option to get help on SP side from the Marlins, but what could we trade.....Colas, Cespedes and Colson aren't going anywhere so im not sure what we could trade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
