Carl Crawford.

 

I actually wouldnt mind that depending on how much money was taken by the Dodgers.

 

 

 

This is a little random. But atleast we dont have the most delusional front office under Jerry's watch.....Bulls are really attracting some attention.

In all fairness, Alexei Ramirez was compared to utility guys like Ramon Santiago coming out of Cuba.

So he and Abreu are two huge reasons that Cuban market is now overscouted and analyzed compared to ten years ago.

 

And no doubt there has been a lot of high expectations for guys like Viciedo, Rusney Castillo, Alex Guerrero and Tomas who haven't delivered...at least not as projected.

only if they sweeten the deal with some of the dodgers prospect |s|, comp pick |s| and cash.

 

What? You can't trade compensation picks. You can only trade competitive balance picks, which LAD does not get.

Honestly, Yadiel could work out well for this team. From the sounds of it, he isn't really regarded as a potential star, but does have some upside. Scouts have seen him more as a 4th OFer type along the lines of a Daniel Nava. While that might not be all that exciting, it could allow the Sox to give Avi the first crack and then bring him up in May or June.

 

We should have signed Nava when he was availablein December. Angels may cut him this spring so Hahn may get a 2nd chance.

Chisox seem to be considering adding OF. May prefer one than can play some CF. A-jax perhaps, and if they'll spend, fowler

Sure Heyman, whatever you say. I take anything he and others say with a grain of salt. In other news, the earth is actually round and not flat!

Isn't the competition for Ethier likely to pick up between now and then based on spring training injuries?

 

It doesn't feel like that deal comes closer to fruition the nearer they get to Opening Day. Let's put it this way...when is the last time that we can remember a core player being traded at that time by a contending team?

 

Most importantly, we don't have a willingness to trade our top three prospects to shave Ethier's deal down to reasonable salary terms.

Levine is a buffoon but what he says here has been the rumor since the Parra signing.

 

The Colorado Rockies at some point will likely trade outfielder Carlos Gonzalez this season, but the timing of that may not sync up with the White Sox’s timetable.

 

The Rockies probably will trade CarGo at the deadline or next winter which does not line up with the Sox timetable so Levine is right about that.

 

That said, there was really no point in Levine bringing up CarGo outside of his stating the obvious as usual.
