Well, poo poo. I'm gonna have to start following the Red Sox again, apparently. Right now I just have their schedule on my phone so I know when the T is gonna be all hosed up around Kenmore.

Chexoid posted:Boston got one of the best pitchers in the world on an absurdly cheap contract and gave up zero major league talent. It's real good. This is completely misleading. They gave up very good prospects. It's still a very good deal for the red sox though. I have a feeling Sale and the dumb Boston media won't get along, though.

I'm already getting mad at people saying "the Sox won/lost this trade". They both have Sox in their name, come on guys.

The Red Sox got Sale in a relative fleecing, it should have hurt way more to get him

It will be interesting to see how Sale's elbow holds up without the supervision of Don Cooper and the White Sox trainers.

Now they just need to convince Ortiz to hold off retirement for one more year and the WS is as good as theirs.

Popete posted:Quick! Someone tell me who won/lost this trade? everyone. red sox get chris sale, consistently one of the best pitchers in the mlb for the past 4-5 years. white sox get like 3 really good prospects and are finally free of chris sale, a man who idolized a child they kicked out of their clubhouse and inspired him to destroy their throwback jersey day with a psychotic scissor attack. I'd call it a Good Trade

White Sox seem to get less than expected for Sale so either they consider him a clubhouse cancer or that down arrow on their stadium is already having an effect Who do the Nationals panic trade for now Any Red Sox fans feel like bitching about prospect hugging because I really enjoy that debate

It stings to lose Moncada and Kopech because they've got all the physical gifts in the world, but they still have Devers (who might be better than Moncada) and Groome and it's not like trading Betts and Benintendi -- the White Sox asking price in July.

Sounds about right to me if this was the direction they were going to go. Chatter is that the White Sox were asking for Betts and Benintendi and may have nearly got it at the deadline and the Yankees arguably got more for a season and a half of Miller For someone of Sale's caliber for 3 years at that contract I'm shocked they didn't get anyone MLB ready is all CubsWoo fucked around with this message at 20:06 on Dec 6, 2016 |

What is the deal here Moncada's value right now is approximately what Kris Bryant's would've been, if the Cubs traded him prior to 2015, if that helps. He is that level of prospect.

Agreed, but Sale is one of the best starters in the game, in his prime years, on a deal that's paying him probably a third of his market value for the next three seasons. In order to make this even up Moncada will have to turn into a Kris Bryant kind of player, which is far from a sure thing, and even then I'm not totally sure if it is worth it.
