bmags Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 I would rather spend money framing Benintendi into getting convicted for a DUI where the judge was bribed into forcing him to coach a rag tag group of little leaguers so that he gains perspective and finds a new lease on life before I would water down the return for our few valuable assets. 3 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny cause we're seeing what a team that can't run, can't throw, can't hit and can't field — JR's supposedly ideal player — is like. It's bad.

The problem is, most teams (likely) don't have 6-7 in their top 10 that should be worth those two. Better to split them up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestEddy Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Everybody's saying the same thing: White sox will be the most active at deadline. "They should blow it up and do some big things to try to get back into contention quickly"@Ken_Rosenthal says the @whitesox could be one of the more active teams at the trade deadline. pic.twitter.com/F5mAtP7VFw — Foul Territory (@FoulTerritoryTV) June 25, 2024 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Passan had a “Perfect Trade for each Contender” article today and it has Robert to the Phillies, Crochet to the Orioles, & Fedde to the Guardians. And honestly, all three of those pairings make sense. Here is what I’d want from each of them to get a deal done: CF Luis Robert to PHI for SS/3B Aidan Miller, OF Justin Crawford, RHP Mick Abel, & RHP Wen Hui Pan SP Crochet to BAL for C/1B Samuel Basallo, OF Dylan Beavers, & RHP Jackson Baumeister SP Fedde to CLE for OF Jaison Churio & RHP Andrew Waters Please flame away as needed! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those would not be bad deals for the Sox. Personally, I think Basallo’s bat is pretty far ahead of his glove and that he ends up at 1b. But a lot of good gets in those packages. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's far too much from BAL. But would absolutely do BAL and CLE here. I still would like a better headliner for Robert and don't love Crawford for his lack of power and terrible bb/K rate. I'd pass on this PHI deal. Edited June 25 by Squirmin' for Yermin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would want Miller (55), Crawford (55), and Caba (55) from Philly for Robert. I would want Mayo (55), Beavers (50), and McDermott (50) from Baltimore. I would want Chourio (55) from Cleveland. That kind of haul would go a long way to rebuilding this dumpster fire. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteSox2023 Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Not a huge injury but starters are dropping like flies… “Mariners placed RHP Bryan Woo on the 15-day injured list with a right hamstring strain. Woo has been phenomenal this season for Seattle, registering a microscopic 1.77 ERA, 0.69 WHIP and 28/3 K/BB ratio across 40 2/3 innings (eight starts), but has struggled to stay healthy. The 24-year-old righty was lifted from the fourth inning of Monday’s start against the Rays with a right hamstring tightness, and a subsequent MRI revealed a low-grade strain. He’s going to miss at least a couple weeks, even with this being arguably the best-case scenario outcome.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I think Basallo’s bat is pretty far ahead of his glove and that he ends up at 1b. But a lot of good gets in those packages. To be honest, I have Basallo as a 1B based on the reports I’ve read but the bat seems legit enough to project him as an impact hitter regardless of position. I know some may prefer a guy Kjerstad who can play the OF, but he’s not great out there and is already 25. Given our situation, I’d push for youth and ceiling and I think Basallo offers the best combo of anyone attainable in that system (though admittedly I really like what I’ve seen of Mayo). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
