Dan Hayes just confirmed.

The Sox want this out there. What that means, you can make your own interpretation.

 

How I take it is that the Sox interest is for real. Hayes tweets that Sox and Desmond are "in talks" not considering or anything like that, but actually discussing possible contract.

 

If I had to guess, Desmond is on the White Sox by the end of the weekend.

True lol.

 

If the Sox get Desmond, which outfielder would they go after in a trade? It sounds like the interest in Ethier was overstated and I don't know who else would be available on the trade market.

 

Desmond Jennings make a lot of sense. Just hope it's not Guerrero.

Just blow up the farm system and trade Anderson and prospects for Puig ;)

I know you're kidding, but imagine this lineup:

 

Eaton (CF)

Melky (LF)

Abreu (1B)

Frazier (3B)

Puig (RF)

LaRoche (DH)

Desmond (SS)

Lawrie (2B)

Hot damn. That lineup would be so f***ing fun to watch.

Just get all the reputed assholes! Team would certainly be a lot more fun, win or lose.

Not that big of a fan of Venable. I think we can trade a reliever for an OF bat like Desmond Jennings.

 

If we sign Desmond we will be one over the 40-man roster. That, coupled with our excess of bullpen arms, might mean a trade is part of Hahn's plan. I like Jennings, but he plus Desmond would really make us an RH hitting team.

Over the 40 man limit doesn't really matter. There are about 5-6 guys that could clear waivers.

 

LH OFers available off the top of my head: Ethier, Venable, Crawford, and Bradley Jr. I'm sure i'm missing others.
