Chisoxfn Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 What is everyone's off the wall trade deadline prediction? I see the Sox potentially moving Tim Anderson in a 3 team deal (between a contender and another buy) to get a top 50 prospect that the Sox think is a better fit. I think they understand the need to improve the defense and feel that they can dangle Anderson to another org to get someone who might be a better fit (maybe a top young catcher, etc).

bighurt574 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Jay Bruce to the Sox (while selling other pieces). No idea how they pull it off, but seems like a Sox type of move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I said it the other day, but one guy I expect to be a surprise move is Erik Johnson. I'd also be shocked if Bonifacio is here on August 1st. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose Abreu Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Since it's 05 reunion weekend, here's a crazy, five team trade. White Sox receive: AJ Pierzynski Brandon McCarthy Juan Uribe Neal Cotts Mark Buehrle Blue Jays receive: John Danks Brewers receive: Dan Jennings Braves receive: Geovany Soto Gordon Beckham Dodgers receive: Scott Carroll Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSox59 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I think the Sox will stand pat for the most part if they continue to play good baseball. If they fall below 6 games under .500 at any point, I am sure Shark will be dealt. I could also see a bullpen arm or two moved since we do have a surplus there. Probably Putnam would be the first to go. However, if the Sox get hot and get back to .500, I'd almost be surprised if they don't try to find a bat or two or help the offense.

Palehosefan Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Chris Sale to the Cubs for Schwarber, Javier Baez, CJ Edwards, Corey Black, and Gleyber Torres. Cubs would still be loaded and have arguably the best pitcher in the game locked up. Would the Cubs be giving up enough? You have a 26 year old that is arguably the best pitcher in baseball and happens to be locked up long-term at great value, how would you ever get his true value? Sox would get a potential all-star catcher, 2 guys rotation ready, a 2B/SS/CF with very good power, and a very good SS prospect for the future. I got through this whole post and became sick to my stomach at the thought of trading Sale. I feel like Quintana wouldn't get the right return since he's not a big name per se, and Shark being a rental wouldn't return a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the type of deal you need to trade Chris Sale. You need someone with superstar potential in the deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schwarber might be better than Bryant IMO And he is a lefty bat and possibly at a premium position for that kind of offense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Schwarber has all the offensive tools that Bryant has so I am not sure how you could be so sure that the next ten years Bryant will be better and he has only played a half of season so far.
