Just scrolled through a Red Sox message board.  Their general consensus is Crochet should be attainable for something like Abreu and “flotsam”.  All I know is if a trade eventually goes down with the Rex Sox, one of the fanbases will be incredibly disappointed because we are so part on what Garrett is worth.

And I'm pretty sure i know which of the two fanbases will be incredibly disappointed.

Spoiler alert: It's not the one with "Red" in the team name.

In all seriousness, if we got Braden Montgomery and Kristian Campbell as people have suggested, this would be pretty good.

Montgomery would have gone far higher in the draft if it wasn't for his injury, and has a great arm for RF, is a switch hitter that has alot of power from the left side in particular so there's some real savagery there too. 

Campbell has played 2B, SS and I think CF so he could potentially fill multiple different spots depending on how those positions shake out after other moves so there's good flexibility there.

I would support that deal if those are the two main pieces. I'd love Anthony from BOS but they aren't gonna deal him obviously.

Remember when they traded Mookie Betts for literal garbage?

If they land those two, that’s the deal, not the start of a larger package. And getting those two for Crochet would be a great deal for the White Sox imo.

Agreed.  I wouldn't really care who is the 3rd prospect, or if one even comes with.

I feel like Red Sox fans have actually been reasonable regarding Crochet’s value, at least on Twitter. Mets fans are the ones living in a delusional fantasyland thinking they can get him for a bunch of filler prospects.

Could just be Sons of Sam Horn then.

Yeah, I would love that deal.
