Bigsoxhurt35 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 I'll start it. @BNightengale: MLB executives are absolutely convinced #Tigers David Price will wind up with the #Dodgers, who likely will have to part with Urias. Urias would be a hell of a get for DET for a rental Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 (edited) That would leave them with Verlander, A.Sanchez, Urias and mystery/mystery for their starting rotation. Of course, if they ended up signing the likes of Greinke or Cueto as a FA, then they'd immediately vault back into discussion as a playoff contender in 2016. You could also see them bringing back Rick Porcello for a "fixer-upper" contract (one year and option) in order to make another run at free agency like Justin Masterson attempted with the Red Sox.

Yeah, his ETA definitely wouldn't be until around the trade deadline next year...leaving the Tigers with two and one-half rotation spots to fill, essentially.

Bigsoxhurt35 Posted July 30, 2015 Author Share Posted July 30, 2015 I'd still take Urias. They've proven to be able to spend big money. This pitching crop of FAs is the best in a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OmarComing25 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 (edited) I just don't see any chance Urias goes for 2 months of Price. How is a top 5 prospect in all of baseball worth a rental?

Chisoxfn Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Wow, I think I'd have rather gone for Hamels if I were the Dodgers (vs. looking at having both Price and Greinke on the market). Urias and Wood seems like a pretty steap price for PRICE. However, Dodgers aren't even a lock to make the playoffs, but if they get in the playoffs, with Price, I'd say that from a post-season perspective, I'd have them down as the favorites. Of course that is on paper. I honestly think I'd rank the Sox pretty highly if they were in the playoffs as well. I like our front of the rotation as much as any currently constructed in baseball and have faith in the back of our pen. To be frank, if we had another good outfielder who could play D, I'd have even more confidence. Note, this doesn't mean that said club would actually make the playoffs though...just saying if it did, we'd be dangerous (which has long been the approach I took from the off-season...wouldn't list us as a favorite for the playoffs, but if we got into the playoffs, I'd watch out). I would really like to see the Sox add a dynamic outfielder to the mix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSox13 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 I really really really hope the Dodgers hold onto Wood and Urias. If the Tigers are unable to trade Price for pitching, their pitching staff is f***ed for years to come. As a Sox fan, that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. I think the Dodgers keep the pitching and look to deal a few outfielders. The Dodgers can go after Price this winter and it will not cost them prospects they covet so much.

Chisoxfn Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Yeah, that type of haul for Price would be bad for the White Sox. Mainly because I really think Julio is going to be a stud pitcher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigsoxhurt35 Posted July 30, 2015 Author Share Posted July 30, 2015 The more I think about, the more I think it'll a wood package back to Detroit. Just can't see them moving Urias for a couple months of Price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
