He has to sell the team, or at least give up his control of everything. He can't make it better. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would everyone feel about Kopech and Pham for Perez and Albertus? Not excited, but passable since Pham probably had basically no value. But Fedde for Vargas feel a really good prospect light. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if that’s how we are going to evaluate a trade, then what are we even doing here? Nobody we get in a return will work out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted July 29, 2024 Share Posted July 29, 2024 So where will Vargas be starting tomorrow for the Sox? What position? Is he gonna be special as a Sox? No more Nicky/DeBong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody we get in a return will work out. My point being, the Dodgers couldn't get him to hit, so the White Sox won't either. I think we have way too much proof of that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PorkChopExpress Posted July 29, 2024 Share Posted July 29, 2024 St. Louis is also giving up a low-level minor leaguer per mlbtraderumors. Does he go to the Sox or the Dodgers, though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted July 29, 2024 Share Posted July 29, 2024 (edited) Fedde is on pace for a 4.0 fWAR at $7.5 million this year and next. And the Sox get nothing to be halfway excited about. Getz one good move, signing Fedde, and one decent one, signing Pham, he blows in one trade. Edited July 29, 2024 by Dick Allen 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted July 29, 2024 Share Posted July 29, 2024 I'd happily trade Oscar Colas for Vargas too, seeing as at no time would the Dodgers have dreamed of considering such a deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would everyone feel about Kopech and Pham for Perez and Albertus? Still sounds like a s%*# trade. I say that as the biggest Kopech hater here. If he's just going to net you a single 19 year old litto ticket, well, he should be able to get that for you a year from now. 0 compensation for the time premium, don't do the trade.
