Chicago White Sox Posted March 13 Author Share Posted March 13 The longer the Yankees remain quiet on Cole, the more I’m convinced they are trying to wrap up a deal for some sort of SP. However, that could just as easily be for Snell though, just impossible to say without knowing how adverse Steinbrenner is adverse to paying more tax. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, but the Sox discussing a deal with Lorenzen has to be a good sign. Only thing that really hurts if they trade him now rather mid-summer is my O63.5 wins bet haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus the fact that Getz was telling Cease about the rumors earlier in the day is a good sign too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should go after Arias. I love the Yankees fit more than any other team. Multiple good packages. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The curious angle to this IMO is that we have three Boras clients at play here, and the two FA have been linked to clubs supposedly hot after Cease. Makes me wonder if Boras a driving force behind some of the rumored interest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He won't do well in NYC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn’t sound like NY is interested. Didn't they have a ton of scouts at his last start though? That doesn't seem to me like a team with no interest. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duran, Porter and Lieter is a tuuuurrrribbblllleee I would be floored if Getz played hardball all winter holding out and then trades Cease to Texas for a 25 year old utility player and two SP prospects with one of them being pretty underwhelming so far and turning 24 in a month. I mean, that can't be real right. Feels like they could have made a deal like that months ago if that's what they wanted in return. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn’t sound like NY is interested. The Yankees made an offer but it didn't include any of their high impact players. For some reason they think they can acquire Cease with a collection of their low tier guys. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 1 hour ago, DirtySox said: I hope the Sox get close with SD or the Yankees and Getz goes back to the Rangers with a "for Langford he's yours" last chance Hail Mary. Other than that, yuck on a TEX package. This is where I am. If we don't get Wolcott as a headliner, or like a 6 player deal loaded with 4 other top 10 players (non-Carter, Langford, Wolcott), I am not interested in a 3 player deal from TX. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Sacamano Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 (edited) I love the idea of sending Cease to the Padres along with Eloy. What kind of package could you expect then? Edited March 13 by Bob Sacamano Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope its the Padres, they have some really nice players in their system and it goes pretty deep too. That would be my ideal trade partner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted March 13 Author Share Posted March 13 At some point they will have to reveal their cards and both Getz & Boras will smell the blood in the water. Even if the Yankees don’t want to pay up for Cease, having them as a desperate boogeyman helps with SD & TEX. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be an odd time to get a major deal done, but then again, you still have major free agents available and we are closing to opening day than we are pitchers and catchers reporting. If it gets done, it needs to be a home run. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The headliners in this deal would be something not worthy of Cease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
