If Hahn can get Meadows plus a few lottery tickets for Quintana, he's doing well. Meadows and one of the other guys (or Torres + Frazier from the Yankees) and he deserves Executive of the Year next year.

No idea why the pirates would trade meadows for Q. They are not a decent pitcher away from a championsh6

True. But meadows has the potential to be an impact player when they are in contention

imagine how great these prospects must be if they are in the Sox farm system and analysts still think they are great


With Chris Getz now in charge things are sure to turn around!


Chris Getz has a career OPS of .616 and a wRC+ of 66. Best hitter that Kenny Williams drafted in 15 years. Troof.

And when are they going to be in contention? Should they blow it up again after this brief oasis from 20 straight losing seasons?

I think the Pirates are the pawn in all this before Hahn and Cashman pull off a Hanukkah miracle

Pretty sure I heard Mully the other day claiming Q is actually more valuable than Sale, with better stats and an extra year of control.

Q's WAR 14-16 is 12.7 by my arithmetic.

It's certainly one of three or so generally accepted authorities...not the only one.

Just heard on 670 that there are rumors of a three team deal involving Q with the Pirates and Yankees. Name being talked about for the Sox was Glasnow

I hold out as long as possible and see if Pittsburgh gives up Meadows and Bell. If that cannot happen I think you have to bring in the Yankees as a destination for Glasnow and bring back Rutherford (+ Bell still) or go back to Houston.
