cabiness42 Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Frazier's glove is a plus at 3B, right? From everything I've seen, yes, though defensive metrics are not overly reliable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jphat007 Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 There is no Ethier, I don't believe. You have to give up something to get something. I think this is fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quin Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Trayce headed to LA, along with Micah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 I think Frazier is all the Sox received. Unless the Sox go all in and get Upton or Cespedes, I do not like the deal. If they do, OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justBLAZE Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 The #Dodgers get Frankie Montas, Michah Johnson, Trayce Thompson; #Reds get Jose Peraza, Scott Schebler, Brandon Dixon. @JonHeymanCBS 1st. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSox_Sonix Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Frazier only under team control for 2 years. Montas/Micah/Trayce too high of a price IMO. Don't really like this deal. I might be in the minority but I think Trayce has a real future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless the Sox go all in and get Upton or Cespedes, I do not like the deal. If they do, OK. Agreed. I think if we intend to compete, I'm fine selling high on Trayce and well I liked Micah a lot but if his D can't stick fine (leverage an asset we weren't going to get value out of). But only if we intend to truly contend. That means we need another outfield bat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boy they sure were quick to sell high on Thompson but low on Micah and Montas. Don't really get this move personally but we'll see how it shakes down. Don't like giving up Thompson love his bloodlines and production but he might never be more than a decent 4th OF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 (edited) QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 16, 2015 -> 11:22 AM) This is incredible if true, as you get Frazier without giving up Anderson, Fulmer or Rodon. We all knew Micah Johnson had no future with the Sox, and Montas is sure more likely to be a reliever. Bingo. Love Trayce's D, but this could be a classic sell high. Sox defense in the outfield still isn't great now, but we got a pretty good defensive infield to start. I really like Trayce though.

This deal makes it more attractive to come here. Edited December 16, 2015 by Sockin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cabiness42 Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Better than giving up Anderson, but still seems like a lot to give up for 2 years of Frazier. As of now, Avi is back to being a starting OF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Micah, well, it's selling low but before he has zero value I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's never going to put it together imo his athletic ability doesn't translate unless he's 100% healthy and he never is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
