After the Whjte Sox trade, can they make a decent offer?
I was wondering that myself, but I really am not familiar with how deep their farm is. And they might want to add Lucroy to the package as well.

I want to add Choo to Darvish even if we buy out part of his contract.

This is where the Rangers get back on track for a routine second half push. all the fair weathered bandwagon doomsday fans reminds me of an ol story my granpappy used to tell me.

I've read the Cubs don't have many decent prospects right now.

As it should be. He would be the most sought out player on the market this deadline. We could play a major hand in deciding whose the World Series favorite and maybe even put some team over the top to win it. We have some good pieces, just couldn't get it to work here.

Haha. Bandwagon fans don't care about the future of the team. They are only interested in right now. I don't think you would know the difference in a bandwagon and a freight train.

Guzman has got to be getting close. Hitting .313 with 11 hr and an OPS over .800.

Sell, sell, sell!

But ask for a King's ransom for Darvish.

I expect Lucroy and Napoli to be traded.

2017 is effectively over and its time to look to 2019 and beyond.

Beltre's chase to 3000 is the best thing going on. When that ends all focus should be on the future of this franchise. We should target 2019 and sell every possible asset that could help us be a contender again in a couple of seasons.

Taveras is at least a couple of years away. Guzman is really close and if there is room he will probably be up here to play everyday at the beginning of next year. He should get some at bats up here in Sept. as well.

We really need to add some guys to completely revamp that list.
