Sale

Moncada
Kopech
Basabe
Diaz

Quintana

Jimenez
Cease
Fleete
Rose

It is interesting to compare as the top two players in each trade are a top fielding prospect and big armed pitcher with issues but tons of as yet unrealized potential.

Lots of people across the internet were quick to say Hahn would never get a Sale type of deal for Quintana. It looks like to me that he did. It may be a little lighter but it looks very much comparable in kind.

Red Sox ripped of the White Sox. Sox won the Quintana trade.

Very similar...the second trade is the Lite version of the first.

Jimenez and Moncada are similar with Moncada having a slight edge, but Kopech is more of a sure thing than Cease, I think.

If the Sox got Devers this could be an interesting discussion. Instead it was Diaz, who is literally doing nothing, and Basabe who plain sucks.

When the #Cubs tried to get Chris Sale from the #WhiteSox this winter, Theo Epstein was told it would have to be a package with Kris Bryant.

Then why the fuck did they settle on the 3rd piece for Sale?

I'm not gonna get mad, they just got a true blue chip prospect for a guy I would've been happy to just salary dump, but what the hell was Hahn thinking? What they have now plus Devers would be huge, legitimately the top 3 position prospects in the game.

And from what Theo said, he stopped the conversation right there rather than try to negotiate with Hahn for a bit.

Rangers have started shopping Darvish after seeing what the Sox got for Quintana.

Add 10 more greater signs to Kopech.
