TaylorStSox Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 I love when people get upset about prospects they've never actually seen before. It's like watching the NBA draft, but way better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBlackSox8 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 11:22 PM) Reed and Ramirez together makes sense for both the Pirates and Cardinals. Adams and Martinez? Glasnow, Kingham, Taillon? Throw in Lindstrom I say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daggins Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Grimm is Lance Broadway, Olt has been terrible in Iowa, CJ Edwards isa great A-ball pitcher and Neil Ramirez has questionable medicals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 QUOTE (oldsox @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 11:22 PM) For those who who don't like the trade, Garcia is at or near the top of our prospect list. He should contribute in 2014. He has to be #1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 31, 2013 -> 05:13 AM) If you're not going to get much for him and have to eat a lot of his contract, you're much better off saving him and hoping he can finish strong and then deal him this offseason. As you saw in the Peavy deal, teams aren't too interested it seems in high-priced guys with a lot of money left on their deals. Yeah but I want him in right field now, not Rios. QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 31, 2013 -> 05:15 AM) You know we're going to win like 20 out of our last 24 like we usually do when we suck but can't do to save our lives when we are actually decent. No way. Sox stink at home and the road losses will take care of themselves. QUOTE (oldsox @ Jul 31, 2013 -> 05:22 AM) For those who who don't like the trade, Garcia is at or near the top of our prospect list. He should contribute in 2014. He should contribute now if we dump Rios tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 I really, reality like Montas. Wouldn't surprise me to see him become the gem of the deal if he harnesses his control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenSox Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:24 PM) I'd much rather have Garcia than Olt. +1000 Looks like an okay deal for us, great deal for Boston, terrible deal for Detroit. So terrible that, gosh, couldn't we have swung some Alexei their way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Tomorrow is going to be interesting. Red Sox are huge deadline winners thus far. Going to be hard to beat. Maybe someone will get desperate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenSox Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 11:18 PM) Unfortunately Peavy got injured or maybe the Rangers would have went after him instead. Doubt it. AJ never/rarely caught Peavy. I didn't like the Cubs deal anyway. We didn't need a 5th starter or an Olt. That AA pitcher they got looks good though.

Looks to me like the book is coming together on Olt, pretty much ready for publishing. At the very least I feel like Garcia has a lower chance of totally busting. What do you think?
