Just getting that out there, again, not claiming to be a source. Just as long as we don't waste TLRs leftover stash, all good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like another one of their SS too. But, you know, the idea is to get the guys who will be there tomorrow, even if they aren't yet there today. He may be top 30 in a year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They throw out some short vague bullshit that will only ever make them look like they have sources but it never includes enough details that they will ever be truly wrong.

GreenSox Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 36 minutes ago, fathom said: Peavy initial trade and Danks extension Peavy trade ended up being okay. Prospects we traded didn't do much and we flipped him for Avi and Montas. (not that we got a whole lot out of them). Of course, we withheld our top pitching prospect from the Peavy trade, but then traded him next summer for E Jackson and his 5+ ERA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't heard anything myself. #91 on FG....RHH....far from MLB. No. And the rest of the package doesn't matter much if they are all going to ve worse than the headliner. If other teams don't want to make serious offers just keep holding him. Edited March 12 by SoCalChiSox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Frasor, Zach Stewart, Myles Jaye (the late) Daniel Webb. Nestor Molina, Jhan Mariñez. It's almost like we had zero ability to scout baseball players to find a guy whose talent wasn't being maximized. Or we could, but had no idea how to develop them.

Looks like he is totally out of the loop here, which you might not want to communicate to the entire world OR your own players who are supposed to trust you, ideally. Should have gone to Montoyo for a quote. Seems almost nobody in the media ever tries to talk to him. Narron was simply known for his scorecard script, considering both guys were former big league managers, but whatever.
