Whisox05 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 White Sox's pursuit of impact RH bat (Yoenis Cespedes/Justin Upton) might lead to Jeff Samardzija trade, either in 3-team deal or 2 trades. https://twitter.com/philgrogers/status/627162584370814976 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm very much in agreement with Chisoxfn. I'd prefer any piece we add be longer term. A rental (especially after Smarj experiment) just seems foolhardy.

Sox are in a good position here. Hahn should exploit whatever market is available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lasttriptotulsa Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 (edited) I'm kind of advocating for trading Samardzija AND adding a bat. I think the addition of an impact bat benefits our club more than the substitution of EJ for Samardzija hurts us. Even with EJ, that pitching staff is good enough to compete. If they worked a good 3 team deal basically swapping Samardzija for a bat, they would basically be giving up the compensatory pick for a two month rental. I think they would be willing to do that.

I wonder if them trading shark and then using the return to get a bat could try for more then a 2 month rental. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is me, I think a bat does more to help us get into the post-season then Shark, however, I think Shark is more impactful in helping us do anything in the post-season. I am for moving Shark and adding a long-term bat (if that is what it takes). I'm for moving Shark + top prospects to get someone like Puig.

Bigsoxhurt35 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 (edited) I'd love Puig but that seems like a December trade to me. Edit: I know they're looking for a starter. So maybe somehow we package Shark for him. We'd need a SP back with Puig though unless we're slotting EJ in his spot.

Dick Allen Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 The Sox have been buzzer beaters before. The Contreras and Peavy deals were announced after the deadline had past. Find a team desperate for a starter, and desperate for some salary relief with a hitter. Lose Shark, gain a hitter, and gain some prospects.
