macsandz Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 QUOTE (mike65 @ Jul 23, 2013 -> 10:10 PM) Does the rumor that I posted this afternoon (heard on a Chicago radio station) have any merit? It is back two or three pages. Thanks. Hell, I meant this for Bucket! That deal is not happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtySox Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 If Rick could pry Cecchini from Boston I would be ecstatic. Anything else would be a bonus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenSox Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 (edited) QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Jul 23, 2013 -> 10:03 PM) Jake to Beantown has legs. They have prospects, but I've never gotten the sense they'd part with the real good ones. And I always figure that Boston's farm is always overrated some because of the media love-affair and that the sabre-boys claim them as their success story, so they over-hype. But they do have good ones even discounting them some. I guess that Cards deal was too good to be true.

Jake Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 I'm highly skeptical of Garin Cecchini. Reeks of Ryan Sweeney to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 (edited) QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jul 24, 2013 -> 04:07 AM) They have plenty of pitching prospects. Owens, Barnes, Webster, Ranaudo, Workman, Britton etc. I would love Cecchini but I have a feeling that it's wishful thinking. Other than that I like Swihart and Mookie. Not huge on Brentz, Iglesias, or Marrero though. If their third rated prospect and number 41 in MLB is wishful thinking then we need to start looking elsewhere.

Law has him 20. Sickels 30. I'm a big fan of his. I'd agree though, other than Cecchini the position players in that system are lackluster considering Bogaerts and Bradley aren't going anywhere. They do have plenty of really solid pitching prospects though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtySox Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 (edited) Maybe I should post this here too since the Cards guy posts in this thread. Um. Really hope this isn't accurate. Martinez would be incredible for Alexei. Hell, Sickels has him as 9th best prospect in baseball on his newly released top 75. The Sox are listening to proposals. They turned down a deal involving pitcher Carlos Martinez, the Cardinals third-highest rated prospect, for shortstop Alexei Ramirez, according to a scouting source. Martinez, 21, is 4-2 with a 2.05 ERA in 11 starts at Double-A Springfield and Triple-A Memphis. Martinez, who possesses a fastball in the high-90s mph range, has struck out 44 hitters in 52 innings. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseb...0,3745533.story Edited July 24, 2013 by DirtySox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
