I hear its Blake Rutherford plus little else. I would think we need a bit more. Deal to be announced after the game.

Kahnle by next year could be worth more than Robertson and Frazier.

I'm hearing Robertson, Frazier, and Kahnle for Yankees #3 prospect Rutherford, and possibly their #4 prospect Mateo and perhaps others. It won't be officially announced until after the game.

Juan pizzarro · « **Reply #2452 on:** July 18, 2017, 09:31:42 pm »

I heard a crap prospect after Rutherford, if we get also their #4 prospect as well, I'm all all in.

shawnabner · « **Reply #2453 on:** July 18, 2017, 09:41:13 pm »

Lots of speculation. I'm also hearing #3 Rutherford plus #7 Adams (pitcher), who is a borderline Top 100 prospect. Should be finalized soon.

Juan pizzarro · « **Reply #2454 on:** July 18, 2017, 09:42:22 pm »

It's even worse if we have to eat Clippard in the deal.

Adams is legit! that would be a coup.

shawnabner · « **Reply #2456 on:** July 18, 2017, 09:55:26 pm »

Other speculation that it's Rutherford, #9 prospect Clarkin, possible Cooper reclamation project in Clippard and some other guy.

Method · « **Reply #2457 on:** July 18, 2017, 10:18:32 pm »

If its clarkin... that is a now a suddenly underwhelming return.

Rutherford is a good get, but the trio is a hard sell for just him.

I disagree. Trade the trio separately, and you get what, maybe a couple of schmoes per guy? I'd rather have a top 30 prospect + a couple of schmoes than have 7-8 schmoes. Nice parlay by Hahn.

I agree would rather have the top prospect then a few schmoes... just feel like 3 yrs of Khanle should have brought back more. He's really elevated his game this year... here is an article on him from right before ethe trade on fangraphs yesterday.

He compares favorably to Andrew Miller... compare our haul to what miller brought the yankees last year from the indians...

The White Sox Have Another Major Trade Chip

This is the time of year when reliever prices go way, way up. Thatâ€™s good news for Rick Hahn.

Kahnle was not going to fetch what Miller did. Too much uncertainty. But a very good haul regardless. So glad Hahn is flying solo now

White Sox trade Robertson, Frazier, Kahnle to Yankees, call up Moncada

The Moncada announcement and the multiplayer trade capped a flurry of activity in advance of the non-waiver trade deadline.

Heh, good one, Shoe.

Method, one more thing -- keep in mind that "we" didn't eat any money; the Yanks took on Robertson's full salary this year and next year.

Method · « **Reply #2466 on:** July 19, 2017, 11:59:53 am »

Yea would have rather we paid some for more prospect goodness.

BlackSox · « **Reply #2467 on:** July 19, 2017, 12:10:32 pm »

I'm guessing this salary dump is tied to all that $$$ they gave to "Robber"

ISF · « **Reply #2468 on:** July 19, 2017, 03:33:22 pm »

Polo looks like he could end up the best of the bunch. Yanks got him in Nova trade.

Enjoyed this write-up; read it to the end, especially the part about what Yanks can do with bullpen now....good stuff.

Both teams did what they wanted to do. There are no losers, here.

Not sure eating salary would have changed much. Hahn has had a good of 8 mos as any GM ever

SoxRule · « **Reply #2470 on:** July 20, 2017, 09:05:38 am »

Eh, this trade may have been a tad underwhelming but Hahn got his guy in Rutherford and I trust he knows he wasn't getting offered anything better. By the way, here's a tidbit from a national writer at Baseball America:

Hudson Belinsky Retweeted Baseball America
Really like Blake Rutherford. White Sox system getting deeper and more impactful. Easily the top farm system in baseball in my opinion.

I'm with ISF. Think Tito could be very good

he Rockies have acquired lefty Will Lamb from the White Sox, with an announcement confirming a tweet from Robert Murray of Fan Rag (via Twitter). It’s not known what Chicago will receive in return, but it’s surely reflective of Lamb’s struggles. While the former second-rounder has produced good results in brief stops at Double-A in recent years, he has been knocked around at the highest level of the minors. Over 120 1/3 total Triple-A frames, Lamb carries a 6.06 ERA with 7.8 K/9 and 4.6 BB/9.
