Bush has a four pitch mix, a left handed starter who has upside. We are pleased we are adding Bush and Quero tonight." - Rick Hahn Press Conference Thought it was ChatGPT Now Hahn finally comes out of hiding to crow about his "haul" of prospects to move the Sox closer to the #20-24 range of MiLB systems.

Autumn Dreamin Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 It was obviously coming, but it still makes me miserable. On Quero, from Baseball Prospectus who had him 37/50 midseason: 5 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sin city sox fan Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 If we arent going to fire Grifol anytime soon (and if we havent by now, we arent going to do so) trade anyone with value for prospects and maybe we can contend in 2030 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MLB has Quero as a 55 and Busch as 50....solid return. I wonder what LAD final offer was.....evidently it was less than that. They addressed two big needs at once so I'll give them props for that. Hopefully Quero can be a LHS and stick behind the plate and Busch can be a good 3/4 for us in the rotation.

Capn12 Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 We got 2 of their top 5 prospects, for a rental of Giolito, while also shedding salary with ReyLo. I hate the organization, but there is nothing wrong with that return. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our farm system is bad also but our #2 would be Noah Schultz. If someone got our #2 prospect from a bad system would this be bad for the team.

WilliamTell Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 The one thing Rich Hahn hasn't seemed to be too bad at is trading for prospects. We need a catcher and left handed pitching, this gets us both. I hate to say I'm content with the trade, but initially I am. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should have been fired after last season and for sure fired at the all star break. The fact he is still employed and making these deals tells you he will indeed be back next season. Feels like a Trader Kenny trade to me. For those that said he never sold off pieces, he did pull off a massive heist with that Freddie Garcia for Gavin Floyd & Gio Gonzalez trade. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 (edited) Hahn is going to brag about getting a jump on the market...before other big name pitchers like Snell became available over the weekend. That said....seems Ohtani definitely won't move now, same with Stroman. Edited July 27, 2023 by caulfield12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judge the players.....not the system For real, we should be jazzed that the Angels decided that they're going all in and becoming the 2016 Sox instead of trading Ohtani and just losing him for nothing. Like, they've not made the playoffs since 2018 despite having two GOAT level players. Maybe their injured players return and Gio helps them out, but history is against them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenSox Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 Well Giolito is our highest value rental starter and Lopez our highest value rental reliver so the returns are going steeply downhill after this. But this seems like a reasonable deal. This FO done a lot worse for rents. Would be nice to get rid of Getz &Co and start afresh on the farm. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
