I think it's interesting that they hire this catching guy from the Brewers and then the return is another catcher. Someone is bound to move to 1B or LF down the road.

hogan873 Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 4 minutes ago, JUSTgottaBELIEVE said: Pretty impressive? Two T60 mlb prospects and two other 45 FV interesting names. This is a better deal than I could have imagined. Trying not to be too enthusiastic, but I really like it. When I first heard Teel was the headliner (and not someone like Mayer), I was a bit apprehensive. But this is a great return. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaleAleSox Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 I don't know whose defense is viewed higher, but obviously one of Teel/Quero will move to 1st at some point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBooneLoganEra Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 If you double up with Teel/Quero splitting time catching and DH'ing that's a nice solution. I love both bats. I wanted Montgomery back in July so love that they got him. This is a nice deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 I would say I’m satisfied…not over or underwhelmed. It’s nice not having to worry about Crochet’s elbow exploding 14 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chitown87 Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 Initial reactions to this seem much more positive than the Cease trade, although that’s not a high bar 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaylorStSox Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 Now that we have both Montgomery's, we're basically the A's with Rickey Henderson and Dave Henderson. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romeo_Santiago81 Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 Ok it seems is now a better return than I expected although I am cautiously optimistic how Montgomery recovers from broken ankle but he could have been top 5 if he wouldn't have broken his ankle at the end of the season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there is a place on the team for a little guy, just not when you draft him 3rd or 4th or whatever Madrigal was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 3 minutes ago, fathom said: I would say I’m satisfied…not over or underwhelmed. It’s nice not having to worry about Crochet’s elbow exploding The fact is, as long as JR is around, the better he pitched, the less chance the Sox ever had of having him around in 2 years, so even if he pitched great the first half this year, the less control cost the Sox, and I still find it hard to imagine he makes it through another season unscathed. Hopefully, this turns into the best deal that was offered, There's some to really like here, and no real bust probable guys. He had to go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teel and Montgomery were two of my favorite names from the last two drafts. f*** yea. This past spring, I optimistically speculated that Crochet could return one 50/55 FV prospect and another 45 FV prospect. Boy, was I wrong. Way underestimated him. This is clearly a better return than what they got for Cease. Just goes to show how the league values Crochet relative to Cease despite the limited track record. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 9 minutes ago, fathom said: I would say I’m satisfied…not over or underwhelmed. It’s nice not having to worry about Crochet’s elbow exploding yeah. One - it's position player heavy. To do that, we didn't get the top 30 guys we'd hoped (though probably could have in more of a one-for-one way). I'd say this is the 'fan' market, but doesn't mean they scouted well here. I hope so. I was talking myself 100% into brewers deal, but this is a good amount of quality here. Not the biggest Braden montgomery guy, but do like that he has the same last name as Colson. Wouldn't mind exploring getting all montgomerys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestEddy Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 None of the new acquisitions go onto the 40-man, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
