Kyyle23 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Dec 18, 2014 -> 11:53 AM) It's cause we're trading Abreu to them. We are rebuilding, so lets get rid of all of them since we need to fill the seats that will be even more empty after Sale and Abreu are traded. wait, what?

My personal favorite was the version where we were trading Sale, but getting Samardjiza in a separate deal. Samardjiza would be pitching to less fans than he did in Oakland.

cabiness42 Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Ok, fine. Boston wants Chris Sale? Sale for Tom Brady. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The author does acknowledge that it would take "a big position player package from Boston, Houston, the Cubs or Texas, teams with deep farm systems."

Dunt Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 "Sale is a really good pitcher, but is he worth letting go of possibly the future starting catcher for the Red Sox?" Seemed pretty straight forward Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seemed pretty straight forward Lol in a package. Sorry I'm not seeing that quote as implied 1 for 1. If the Red Sox were offered Sale for Swihart straight up, Sale would be pitching opening day 2016 and Vazquez would be catching for the Red Sox.

Yeah to be honest, I wouldn't really like a deal with Boston if Swihart is the centerpiece. He'd be a nice part of a deal but we need better than that.

iamshack Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Unfortunately, at this point, this is exactly the kind of deal we should be looking to make. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The names would be Bogaerts and Betts or they'd get hung up on. 100% agree. You only trade Sale if it's for a franchise-altering package. And if Blake Swihart is the best piece you're getting, then it's clearly not that kind of package. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if Blake Swihart is the best piece you're getting, then it's clearly not that kind of package. 100000000% agree. The same idea applies for Quintana as well. He's not quite as valuable as Sale but he's pretty close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 I don't really care if there are fan rumors. Sox aren't trading Sale. Boston will have a shot at him when he's a free agent. If Sale stays healthy obviously Sox won't be able to keep him when time comes. I wish the Sox would do the tinkering necessary to have a dominant starting rotation and middle relief and bullpen. We have too many lefty starters. We don't have 3 reliable bullpen guys which is what you need nowadays. I mean REALLY RELIABLE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chetkincaid Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Nov 8, 2015 -> 05:49 PM) It actually came from Gammoms Well Gammons once said that MLB should look at the White Sox for contraction before they kicked Boston's ass and won the World Series in 2005, so this doesn't surprise me.
