Not shocking that this is being reported on the same day as the poor Danks prognosis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Volquez would be interesting. He seems like one of those guys Coop can fix. Street's been great this year, but I don't think we really need bullpen help. Once Crain is healthy again, we'll be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y2Jimmy0 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 QUOTE (SOXOBAMA @ Jul 12, 2012 -> 01:43 PM) A Padres beat writer was on the radio here in CA, talking about the trade deadline and he reported that the Padres have started talks with the White Sox about Volquez and Street. Acquiring both would be a nice upgrade but I would imagine it would be fairly expensive. Volquez is a typical Kenny target because he has another year left on his deal. I need to see the names going back to San Diego first though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Oh boy. Sox are gonna have to give up a lot to get this duo. So who do Sox say goodbye to, forever. I'd say Jordan Danks, Mitchell, Flowers and Q will probably be the ransom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hi8is Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 12, 2012 -> 11:46 AM) NOOOOOOOO on Volquez He hasn't been steady but maybe you'll catch lighting in a bottle at an affordable price. Volumes was basically the final piece in the Latos deal. His stock has fallen - id imagine - since the Hamelton trade. That seems like a no brainier.

He has missed time with his shoulder three times this year., right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanOfCorn Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 The Sox just traded Lillibridge and released Kosuke BECAUSE of Jordan Danks. Who would fill that role? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 12, 2012 -> 07:53 PM) Crain's injury has to be labeled as "nagging" at this point. He has missed time with his shoulder three times this year., right? And he hasn't looked right most of the year on the mound. His numbers are deceptive, as he's gotten away with just a ton of pitches up in the zone. Tons of credit goes to Crain though, as I bet he hasn't been 100% all year. The Sox desperately need a righty set-up man with experience, in my opinion. Volquez won't come cheap though, and I hope KW doesn't consider trading Viciedo for these guys. Mitchell should be the main guy the Sox look to trade if he has any value at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SOXOBAMA Posted July 12, 2012 Author Share Posted July 12, 2012 With Sale and Q being limited with innings in the 2nd half and a young bullpen, I can see Kenny making a trade for a starter and bullpen guy. Not to sure about Volquez and Street since they play in a pitcher's park.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the White Sox have a package I would accept if I were Josh Byrnes. The Sox have no pitching to trade and Simon Castro came from the Padres. Mitchell has to be in this deal. There is nobody else; especially if SD wants pitching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise, I could see one or more of those guys involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
