ChiSox59 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 QUOTE (raBBit @ Nov 11, 2015 -> 10:44 AM) I totally get your reasoning here. You outline why I reneged on what I was offering initially. I literally threw that together in a waiting room with only 3G as service when I was bored. Then you got SouthSideSale and Chilihead freaking out about a mistake that I already acknowledged. My post created two pages of discussion though... It was a great post!

Bigsoxhurt35 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 QUOTE (raBBit @ Nov 11, 2015 -> 11:41 AM) Read the last two pages of this thread. You don't know what insists means. It's weak that you're trying to make it personal. Sorry your ideas are far-fetched, over-repeated and irrelevant to reality. I'm not making it personal because I don't even know you Not all of my ideas are far-fetched. That's the only one. Go look at my mock offseason. It's not crazy. A few aggressive moves made. I don't have us signing $100 million free agents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty typical Levine "reporting". Takes quotes and then spins them with reckless abandon. Dude is one of the worst reporters in the city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read your whole post it was a great idea with all of the trades. I wasn't freaking out lol just had a couple small issues. That's also why it was a good post because it created two pages of discussion (aside from my nonsense which I acknowledged). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This team does need a lot of work though that's why I expect an aggressive off-season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunt Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 This article brings up a good target for the Sox: http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/the-america...kest-positions/ They should pursue Dioner Navarro to split time with Flowers. Pretty good K% and BB%, solid defensively, better avg and obp than Flowers. Would be a nice compliment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was as soon as that Qualifying Offer was given. Don't think the qualifying offer is totally going to deter the sox. They got a 10 pick which is protected and should be a comp pick for shark when he declines. Sox don't have enough prospects to get the players back to fill all the holes they have. Quintana is going to be probably have to moved in order to full the spots. This is probably the last year they can try to sign qualifying offer free agent .

Bigsoxhurt35 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 (edited) I am curious if we'll make a run at a guy like Zimmerman or Maeda. We were talking to shark about a big contract so I'm wondering if they'll make a play for one of the starters. Price and Grienke will be way too much. I wonder about Zimmerman and Maeda who'll be posted later this month. Edited November 12, 2015 by SouthSideSale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
