A real grinder with TWTW.
Yeah, they should be willing to give up Kinsler for that. |

Step away from the minibar.... Sure, let's trade a key part of our club for one of the true black holes in baseball.

That is never going to happen, even if the Sox ate Dunn's entire contract. Kinsler also has a contract that decreases his salary after 2015.

At times like this, you wish it was like the NBA, where expiring contracts actually have value.
De Aza might have some value, assuming he remembers how to run bases. The Yankees could be a good trading partner, or the Reds, or the Giants, depending on what you can get. |

I agree Texas could move Kinsler to open up space for Profar but it's not going to be for a guy like Adam Dunn

OK, but Adam Dunn is not at the level of player they would require, particularly with what could turn out to be a friendly contract.

Might be worth mentioning here.

Some great points. Whatever "system" the White Sox have in place has to be the cause. That's painfully obvious which makes it even a scarier thought. I'm sure they've tried to iron it out - but there really must be a major disconnect there. Could it be that noone in the organization knows how to develop position talent at any level? Is there a single person in-house who has a modern day philosophy that is proven to deliver results? If not, no amount of talent is going to fix this mess. I think what's probably more the case is just hopelessly optimistic talent acquisition. Buying a guy at his peak value doesn't seem to pan out. You have to take those risks to get a guy who may have turned a corner towards consistency - but it just seems to blow up in the organization's face over and over again. |

You never fail to disappoint in trade proposals that would never ever happen.

Buddy Bell came from the outside and was highly regarded. Not much has happened since hes been here. I dont think its bad hiring as much as the chief always has a finger in the pudding.
