harfman77 Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 QUOTE (LDF @ Nov 16, 2015 -> 11:33 AM) the one thing about laroche is Col already stated that they also want to shed salary. if posters still hoping to move laroche, then it is Pitts with Pedro Álvarez coming the other way. Swapping out LaRoche for Reyes saves them a lot of salary. Like $36M over the next two seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like $36M over the next two seasons. well you are thinking outside the box on this one and it is interesting. well the main reason why Roc will do it is b/c of Reyes arrest and spousal abuse over the weekend. second, i really don't see them taking on laroche contract, even if it is for one yr. next, with the sox ownership, i highly doubt that the sox would be interested in the trade b/c of the spousal abuse..

Vance Law Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 (edited) QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ Nov 16, 2015 -> 09:54 AM) Swapping out LaRoche for Reyes saves them a lot of salary. Like $36M over the next two seasons. Reyes was the worst defensive shortstop other than Marcus Semien last year. He hit as well as Jimmy Rollins, a superior defender who is a free agent and can be had for a lot less than $22 million a year. It would be crazy to trade for Reyes and won't happen.

Not sure I see the Indians as a great fit for CarGo though. I dont think they will have any interest in trading either of those prospects.

With all Rockies hitters, you have to look at their home/away splits. Charlie Blackmon for his career home: .334/.386/.501/ .887 away: .241/.283/.370/.653 Coors Field (or Denver, really) is kind of a ridiculous place for baseball to be played.

witesoxfan Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 QUOTE (Vance Law @ Nov 13, 2015 -> 07:31 PM) D.J. LeMahieu away from Coors field: .612 OPS for his career QUOTE (Vance Law @ Nov 13, 2015 -> 07:35 PM) Corey Dickerson career home/away splits Coors Field: 1.095 OPS Away: .695 OPS Coors Field is a silly field. It is. Can you check Carlos Gonzalez's and Matt Holliday's numbers during the same time? I am guessing that Gonzalez is at around .775 for his career, while Holliday is at .825 for his career. I would prefer the Sox stay away from the aforementioned two, but Gonzalez is a guy I like, especially if they can include Avisail. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Nov 14, 2015 -> 07:28 AM) Losing Daniel Hudson was a devastating blow to the White Sox. One in which they are still trying to recover. Once again, hero worshipping probably cost the White Sox 2 or 3 playoff appearances. I've missed you. More than anyone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have outfielders, but they're not very good. I personally think they should be committing more to a rebuild (especially with where the Royals, Indians, and Twins appear to be headed in their success cycles), but if they really decide to go for broke in 2016, they also could be a perfect dark horse candidate to do something stupid and sell their soul for Cargo. While not extremely deep, their system does have some interesting names, including the high upside arm of Carson Fulmer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
