SCCWS Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 15, 2016 -> 10:06 AM) I think you mean the 2014-2015 offseason in terms of targeting Bradley, Jr. It was clear this year that they needed his defense and Betts' in the outfield, and that Hanley Ramirez and probably Rusney Castillo would be the odd men out (Ramirez was moved to 1B.) So they would have offered Castillo/catcher/Owens instead...or we would have gone after the same targets that were traded for Craig Kimbrel (or maybe not, since they were too far off in their development to impact the White Sox until 2017 at the earliest, but probably 2018). No last offseason. Bradley had a sub-par year last year again w the bat. Now he has exploded offensively. They had Young, Castillo, Betts, Holt and Bradley Jr as outfielders and already decided to move Ramirez once they signed Young. But they were desperate for starting pitching . They went out and paid a bundle for Price but they still were short and now are really scrambling for starting pitching. I wouldn't have done the Castillo package for Q and I didn't think the Red Sox would do a Betts package. Oh well. With Rodon struggling it may have best for White Sox in long run.

In 2014, he was at 531 and his prospects were slightly dimmed...looked like the classic all field, no hit type. It was pretty obvious that Castillo and Hanley were the ones that were going to be out of luck in terms of maintaining their outfield positions. Red Sox also seemed to be satisfied with Holt. Castillo just wasn't hitting for enough power, isn't a very good defender and doesn't light up the board with lots of steals, either.

He hit .354 in August but then tailed off to .216 in Sept/Oct. based on his tailing off I was hoping the Red Sox would be willing to part w him since Betts had a great year. Oh well, too late now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our rotation would be a complete mess without him. No. I thought Rodon would make Q expendable especially if we were getting a young top notch catcher and CF and a 4-5 SP back. I also felt the Sox needed another SP because of the projected Johnson/Danks 4/5 combo. So in hindsight we would have improved drastically at catcher and CF but Q would have been a huge void w Rodon struggling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He typically struggles (relatively speaking) when pitching in the division. It's a new year and Sale is as dominant as ever. I wouldn't worry too much about it.

He's just saying that he's ready to make a deal at anytime. Most likely. But I was just naming someone in my post who I think they'd be more likely to target. Someone without a long commitment and not taking one of Fulmer or Anderson. The Soxtalk favorite offer of: Johnson/Beck, Sanchez, (insert other low tier prospect here) probably doesn't land you anything to great.
