SoxBlanco Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 4 minutes ago, southsider2k5 said: Even if this is a salary dumb, Hendriks is an asset with trade value. If we take back a crappy contract that will only increase the rest of the return with a guy like McCann included. Yep. This is why none of these rumors make sense. We’ve heard that the Mets want to shed salary after signing Correa, but we’ve also heard the Sox might want to trade Hendriks to shed some salary. It doesn’t make sense. That’s why I came up with the unrealistic three-team trade earlier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those guys are gonna get crushed by big league RHP. It's a risk. Escobar's numbers were sub-Harrison until September last year. Probably can find some Andrus type in June if need be. Segura is better; but that's another FA contract. Segura + Benintendi = $23-$25 million range. And I'd ask, just like last year, why not get one good player for that money instead of 2 average players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Sox trade Eloy, they should have kept Abreu. If they make this ^ rumored trade with the Mets, they’re even bigger morons than we already believe. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eminor3rd Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 (edited) I would be a lot less confident in this season with Grandal as the primary DH instead of of Eloy. Losing Hendriks too — all to upgrade from Romy to Escobar and Seby to McCann. Even assuming there’s prospect value coming back, I think there’s a lot more to lose than to gain for the Sox in that scenario.

This is just typical New York fan arrogance leading to fake New York insiders to create ridiculously stupid, one-sided trade rumors. Honestly, I just posted because it’s worth a good chuckle that anyone posted this as being legitimate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This trade idea is preposterous, but I’m so sick of being the big market team with a small market budget. Nothing would surprise me when it comes to JR being cheap. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mets would literally give McCann away for nothing because he has negative value and will cost them $23M per year on a marginal basis. Us taking him on in a theoretical Hendriks trade means we’re getting something else incredibly valuable like Baty. Zero reason to believe Eloy would ever be involved in such a trade unless somehow Alvarez is coming back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is probably the way the White Sox should be approaching efforts to change the trajectory and makeup of the team though, by putting Eloy in a deal. But the return that guy had coming to the Sox definitely lends to this being completely made up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty22hotty Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 I wouldn't be opposed to trading hendriks AND eloy for alvarez + baty then basically start a soft rebuild for 2024 mccann and escobar are garbage tho. would rather have gary sanchez and segura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YouCanPutItOnTheBoardYES! Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 At this point I need Hahn to tell the Mets to f*** off regardless of what they offer just so their obnoxious fans don’t get what they want for once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
