Rays/White Sox deal
« on: March 04, 2014, 11:56:34 PM »
White Sox send:
Chris Sale         $850,000   ARB   ARB   FA
Nate Jones       $507,500   ARB   ARB   FA
Jake Petricka    $400,000   ARB   ARB   ARB   ARB   ARB   FA
Lucas Harrell     $500,700   ARB   ARB   FA
MiLBers: Austin Hedges, Christian Marrero, Donn Roach and Trayce Thompson

to the Rays for:

MiLBers: Franmil Reyes, Billy McKinney, Carlos Tocci, Jon Denney, Dom Nunez, Lewis Brinson, Nick Longhi
and the Rays 5th round pick.

Took alot of haggling, but we finally came to an agreement.
The Rays end up with more pieces for their run at the league championship, with Sale and Jones being the
 key acquisitions, but also getting bench depth and a couple prospects.
The ChiSox continue to stockpile for their run in 2019, acquiring 4 top of the line OFs, a catcher, middle infielder, 1Bman and 5th round pick they were missing, their's dealt by the previous GM.

Trading 3 years of a top 10 starting pitcher, and a top 25 prospect for 0 top 100 prospects? I need to see a lot more justification...

Rays confirm...My player development people were not happy to see a large chunk of our future go, but the idea of adding a top of the rotation starter like Sale was something I could not pass up.

Ditto.  2019 is no certainty.

Veto.

Sale and a very close to the bigs top 25 prospect for a bunch of guys not even a year out of high school. Seems like the White Sox tend to over value mid level prospects and under value solid big league contributors.

I agree with others. I really hate to veto trades but  :veto:

I understand giving up quality for quantity but this is way too much quality for minor quantity gain in prospects.

  • Rhino7: @Daddy, thanks for what you said lol. It was the ultimate challenge to beat JWalkerjr88 last season, I wanted my path to go through him so it makes my title run that much better! I just wanted to get to the SB and figured at that point anything can happen and lucky for me, my boys had enough left to take out BAB. Live is the most challenging league I’m in and most fun, so thanks for what you all do to make it that way.

  • Rhino7: Appreciate it, your team is solid. I expect to see you make another run
    Yesterday at 10:46:37 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: You did well Rhino. I appreciate the battle. The loss didnt sting more because i was undefeated, i know fully that being undefeated in the reg season doesnt mean anything in the playoffs. When rhino and i played this past season, the better team won.
    Yesterday at 10:58:04 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: This next year im coming full force. So far my pattern is win a chip every other year. Lets keep the streak going!!

    Yesterday at 11:10:51 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: If i traded all my picks to a division rival in a rebuild and he beat me in the title game with Desmond ridder or lose undefeated. Its all a loss at the end of the day

    Yesterday at 11:14:05 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: 3 out of the 4 starting QBs in the title games have been traded this offseason

    Yesterday at 11:14:22 PM
  • Daddy: It helps just to fill up your roster and sign good contracts. If you dont know crap but keep a full roster and manage finances, you will kick ass.
    Yesterday at 11:15:26 PM
  • Daddy: I wasnt a genius signing Kuechel. I was just filling an empty spot. I got rewarded with the best pitcher in baseball for a few seasons.
    Yesterday at 11:16:59 PM
  • Braves155: I love it when one of your Dynasty teams you've been rebuilding starts showing up and being competitive early in the season. Especially in baseball
    Yesterday at 11:19:42 PM
  • Brent: Agreed.  I'm decent at building, but I need to get better st winning.  I did win an offsite 32-team football league, it only took me 1.5 season to rebuild and win.
    Yesterday at 11:25:50 PM
  • Daddy: Thats what you should be doing @Brent. LIVE sharpens those skills so you can go elsewhere and dominate unsuspecting leagues.

  • Daddy: I use the same screen name on every site. So the sites I'm visiting/competing, know who is putting foots to them.
    Today at 12:02:47 AM
