The White Sox just acquired the #1 and #3 overall prospects on consecutive days.

Posted by David (aka David) Dec 7 '16, 14:22

Note: I'm not including Dansby since he's 5 at bats away from not being a rookie. That moves LG up from #4 to #3.

That's a steal for Chicago. Eaton isn't anything special but they got some high quality pieces for him. - Krusty Dec 7, 14:53 11
- lol, you need to get out of NY a bit Krusty. -- nm - groiny Dec 7, 14:54 10
  - He's good but no way is he worth what they gave up. He doesn't hit for a high average but .284 is still good these days, 14 HR from an outfielder is -- (edited) - Krusty Dec 7, 15:04 9
    - What I will say is if that is the current market for moderate CFers, I hope we deal Inciarte in five minutes. -- nm - David's iPad Dec 7, 15:09 7
      - Haha! -- nm - Krusty Dec 7, 15:11
      - (but fantastic RFers) - spamlet Dec 7, 15:10 5
        
        OF WAR last year was: Trout, Bryant, Betts, Eaton. -- (link) - spamlet Dec 7, 15:17 4
        
        This is a strong argument against the way WAR is calculated. -- nm - David's iPad Dec 7, 15:18 3
        
        Plus he hit a grand slam *while blowing a bubble*. That's worth a couple WAR at least. -- nm - spamlet Dec 7, 15:23
        
        You didn't watch him last year. He was Gold Glove level in RF. -- nm - spamlet Dec 7, 15:21 1
        
        Sure I did. He's a decent corner OFer who can play center. -- nm* - David's iPad Dec 7, 15:23
    - And I watch a lot of teams throughout the year. -- nm* - Krusty Dec 7, 15:06
Like Touki, I am not sold on Lucas. - Will Hunting Dec 7, 14:40 4
- Touki's taken huge steps for the Braves. To a larger point, he was in low-A ball. LG has pitched in the bigs already. -- nm - David Dec 7, 14:46 3
  - Yeah, but he is a bit older so...he is a strong arm but inconsistent - Will Hunting Dec 7, 14:48 2
    - I think that's a real possibility, but I still hate this trade for the Nats. -- nm - David Dec 7, 14:58 1
      - (Shelby Miller II) -- nm - David Dec 7, 14:58
#2 prospect is sad. -- nm - Mop Dec 7, 14:34 3
- I don't think anyone will be trading for him though. -- nm - groiny Dec 7, 14:35 2
  - Don't you want to keep the set complete? -- nm - Mop Dec 7, 14:44 1
    - sure, but it is like a million to one. -- nm - groiny Dec 7, 14:44
more importantly, for me, is they replaced Sale with 4 minor league pitchers. -- nm - groiny Dec 7, 14:23
