The PERFECT Red Sox DEADLINE TRADE!? 

We need to give a lot of extensions in my opinion to are own players such as Casas, Duran, Houck and possibly Crawford

no way you give up Abreu!

Nice food for thought Corbin!! You stirred the hive lol but alas thats what speculating if for. Have a great day!!"Lets Go Red Sox "!!!

Crochet is probably the one untouchable guy on the White Sox. He’s a high end starter at 24. I can’t see them parting with him. But that would be unbelievable

We have so much outfield depth, leading to one of the lefty bats having to be traded. Which leaves that to Duran, Yoshida, Abreu, and Roman Anthony. I would not trade Rafaela unless I got back a significant player with team control and an All-Star. Duran value is high right now but I think he loves being in Boston and Boston loves him. I would like to move Yoshida since he is bad in the field, but I do not think anyone wants that contract. I want to see a Big Righty bat such as Vlad, Pete Alonso or Bichette.

I would like to trade for Dejong + 1 year extension. Would provide much needed stability until Mayer is completely ready.

I would really hate to lose Abreu and especially Miguel Bleis. Both of these guys have a serious future with the Red Sox and I also believe if you are gonna trade them they would have much more value in a year of 2.

We need to talk about extensions and what it’d cost to get the guys back we have now

It would take an package starting with Roman Anthony. I just don’t see it happening.

We have a plethora of stud OF players...Anthony & Bleis are premium prospects 5 tool potential in both. We could include Valdez, Yorke, Grissom, Romero, or Meridoth, Gonzales or Parales, Mata, Murphy, Blaze Jordan and some others.

Red Sox don’t need a SS. Story will be back next year. In the meantime, they have Rafaela. Next year Rafaela can go back to CF. The Red Sox need to make Devers the DH after they trade for a 3B. If they can’t get a 3B, I would think adding a couple relievers would be okay. How about Noelvi Marte from Cincinnati? What would it take to pry him?

I think that Crochet is a pipe dream, but DeLong could be a good idea. Fedde is a better target. A backup first-baseman right-handed or pinch-hitter could be another target.

Could you see jazz coming to Boston and playing second or short?

The trade deadline is not for another few weeks we need to win games before we can talk about buying or selling to convince Breslow to buy

Awesome videos keep up the good work

Love the trade in either scenerio Corbin.... Let's get er done!

Crochet maybe good right now, but he isn’t time tested. Do we really need him? To me, the cost is too high. No way can we give up Abreu, & I’d like to c where Hammy is over the next few months before deciding to trade him. As for DeYoung…same question. It sounds like we’d have him for part of this season then let him go. However, maybe he’d be a more reliable option than Story considering the plague of injuries that leave us wondering if he’ll ever be the player we hoped for.

Realistically it will cost 3 top prospects and a ready infielder. There will be competition from several clubs. The Os being one of them

We HAD two great shortstops in recent years. Bogarets and Betts.

I like the Dejong add… should take that much… don’t think everyone is looking for middle infield help… but everyone (including the Dodgers will want Crotchet… Dodgers will wait for Mookie and wouldn’t add a bat)

If I were running the White Sox, I would want a pitcher too plus the 3 you list.

I think trades are very difficult. It's like trading the option market. You get a known quantity but give up the future of that player. I never got upset at Bloom's hesitancy to trade. I get it. But a few well placed trades are needed

The Red Sox need starting pichiing. Crochet would be a perfect pick up. I would also like them to get Jesús Luzardo from Miami. The Red Sox need to move Teel and Mayor to AAA soon. I could see them both up at the end of August. So they do not need a shortstop. Because Abreau is back they can move Rafela back to shortstop and Hamilton to second. I do believe that Jansen, Martin, Privetta, and O'Neil are going to be gone so the Red Sox will restock. Maybe some of the new players brought in will go back out in trades for starting pitching. I like your trade package but I would not trade Hamilton. You also said how DeYoung and Hamilton would make a great SS tandem. How could that be if you trade one? Miguel Bleis is a stud and Nick York is tearing up at AAA. So that is a strong base for a trade. I would have been willing to put Peralis in the deal but he is hurt. If they would still want him, I would give him up because it will be a couple years before he can pitch and could very well end up like Brian Mata. Giving up Greg Weissert does not really hurt the team. They have a strong reliever core in AAA and will need a spot for Mata if he can get healthy. What the Red Sox do this trade dead line is all for 2025. If they can also have a playoff run that will be great. I think the Red Sox are a team that can trade off their older players and then go on a run. They have put together an impressive core. Give the young players the experience just like Baltimore did and add more players to the pipeline for the ones being lost to upgrade the pitching.

I wouldn’t go after Crochett just for the fact that the white Sox will get an overpay on him. White Sox also know we’re hurting at Shortstop so DeLong will also be an overpay.

I think a better option if the Red Sox would be trading with the Phillies to get trea turner who has the speed good contact and a little bit of power his defense is also above average which seems like a perfect fit for our speedy team and Jose Alvarado who is posting a 3.09 era and a well rounded starter that could help us a lot including helping us make that playoff run thoughts?

There's just one problem with trading for Crochet. Every single org wants good young controllable starting pitchers. Say goodbye to your top 6 prospects to make this trade happen

Is there a way to cut story

Would Reese McGuire be a good trade option in this due to the white Sox not having a strong catcher and due to Connor’s success I see no need for reese

crochet would be awesome...and i'm all for it. but for some reason, i feel like we would rather go out and get some guy with a 5.50 era and a 2-9 record like we ususally do. or, we will sign a guy like urias and play it up as if he is on the brink of stardom... if you look at the last few seasons, guys like reese and tommy pham are the caliber of talent we go for. you could argue that reese was a good acquisition, however to me he is no better than what we had with vasquez. we did get abreu in the deal though, and that may be worth it all in the end. i love crochet, and i agree...that would be a great deal for us. just worry about what they are going to ask for, and we tend not to give up much in that book. i'd be willing to part with guys like whitlock (love him, but he is always hurt), hamilton, valdez, or even tyler o'neil if it meant that we got an all-star pitcher who will eat up 6-7 innings every outing. o'neil is hitting, but striking out a lot, and his "golden glove" skills seem to have not come with him in that outfield. the injury history with him isn't wonderful either. i like him folks, but if we get something we need more, that's more important. crochet would be cool, that's a dream though...

Regardless of whether the Red Sox go full buy or sell mode at the deadline going after Crochet makes a lot of sense. Clearly he helps you in 2024, but also 2025 and beyond. He is going to come at a heavy cost. Prospect wise I would put either Nazzan Zanetello or Yoelin Cespedes (but not both) in the mix. Bleis has the potential to be a huge impact player for the Sox, but with Duran, Rafaela, Abreau, and Anthony perhaps we can give him up. Then we have a ton of players who will be Rule 5… see what fits with Chicago. On the MLB roster I would put Winckowski in the mix too.

Crochet came up for the White Sox in 2020 he's just been in the pen up until this year so it's his first year starting. (2020, 5 games) (2021, 54 games) (2022, didn't pitch) (2023, 13 games) (2024, 15 games so far)

What about this trade……Casas and Crawford for Crochet and Dejong. Too little or too much to give up? Here’s my rationale………..I think we overrate Casas and I think Crawford is “at best” a .500 pitcher. I also don’t think Casas brings a killer instinct to the game…….weird factor is way too high!! Crochet looks like a top lefty for the next 2 1/2 years. Tell me what you think. Great discussion Corbin.

While your trade propsals are close to reasonable, if I'm the White Sox I'd demand at last one of the Sox top 3 prospects... Anthony or Mayer or Teel. And why not? If the Sox balk at the price, another team might give up a similar prospect. And, if all else fails, they get to keep Crochet. Would you trade Roman Anthony for Crochet and the SS?

I would hate losing Abreu, but the fact is that between the major leaguers and the advanced prospects the Sox are overloaded with prime outfielders, and especially prime lefty outfielders. It makes sense to trade one of them to get a good starter.

You can buy sell trade or stay. Last year we pretty much stayed this year I think we should probably consider that

How about trading vaughn Grissom for Chris Sale? Wait a minute.

Somehow I don't think Breslow will give them Abreu. He is a pretty complete player and he's only 24. He runs well, powerful arm, good outfielder with excellent reads from the outfield. I think its more likely they promote a pitcher from the minor leagues . Thats what I would do and make it a 6 man rotation to give these starters an extra day rest and level out these innings pitched. Crochet is a nice dream and a good idea. Imagine him paired with Houck. I am afraid of what he would cost though. We will see. It doesn't feel to me that Breslow will do that. I could be wrong. Good video Corbin.

Hi Corbin, interesting trade. First, wasn't Theo Epstein the White Sox GM? I don't think the Red Sox will part with major prospects. That said, I think your trade could work. I would think Criswell, Kenley Jansen would be available, and either Grissom or Yorke as well. That would be some high-profile players as well as Gialitto since he wouldn't be needed. I'd say that would be a really good package.

You said it Pitching is at a premium the White Sox are not giving up a controllable pitcher without getting a stud young pitcher in return remember the Sale trade (of course Crochet is NO Sale- but the Sox had to give up Kopech who was a top 10 prospect in their system and capable of hitting triple digits - and YES Breslow is not confident or comfortable in his standing nor does he wield power DD did to make a trade Like this

I can see the red sox trading for someone like cal quantril(rockies, 3.43 era, $6,500,000 1 year contract) or Ryan Weathers(marlins, 3.55, 727,000). Of the two, quantrill's definitely more likely due to his age(29) while Weather's is 24, the trade would avoid a top 10 or even top 20 minor league system, and wouldn't be too expensive. Quantrill would also be effective due to his BAA on the other AL east teams where the Yankees have a 162 BAA him, the Orioles have a 258 BAA, the Jays have a 345 BAA and the Rays have a 200 BAA. This would be pretty effective as we see these teams a ton after the all star break. The Sox would probably have to give up Bryan Mata and Isaiah Campbell for Quantril, due to the control that Mata and Campbell have. Love the DeJong trade.

Doesn’t make sense for us to give all that honestly. And u also said De Jong n Hamilton would be a great platoon but then in the same breath u giving Hamilton up for De Jong lol. But I would stick with Hamilton n Romy at short this season n ride with that. I don’t mind giving up Bleiss for Crochet bcus we are stacked in the outfield

Sorry but you said DeJong and Hamilton would complement each other and then put Hamilton in the trade. Just want to know if you think Hamilton goes or stays?

NO WAY! That,s an insane trade.

Tough being a lefty pitcher at Fenway. DeJong would be sweet. Move Hamilton to 2B and we'd ave an average, competent middle infield. And J.P. Sears would be an interesting pick up for a 4-5 guy.

I can only say this, Red Sox lost a lot of prospects in the past. Now that we have them and as you have seen these players been brought up to the bigs for a reason. This is why I think Alex believes in player development so they can make a trade like of what you said,. Is it possible they will do something this year? Only if their in a good spot for a run to get to the playoffs. I hope they do something soon before some other team grabs up on what you said. You make a lot of sense at who they should get.

Great video Corbin, but no way do I want DeJong. Guy can't hit, that's a liability. Trading for Crochett is going to cost a lot in talent and I'm not sure it's worth it. I'd rather stick with Hamilton at SS and look elsewhere for SP.....

Paul DeJong is definitely a more realistic acquisition possibility as a "short term" shortstop rental for the August and September push for a wildcard playoff berth ... His solid defensive play at shortstop and adequate right handed power bat allowing Ceddanne Rafaela to remain in centerfield is worth acquiring ... No way I see the Red Sox outbidding and overpaying other "big market contenders" for Garrett Crochet ... It's basically the same situation and conversation that has been discussed before in trading for Jesus Luzardo from the Miami Marlins ... However, I'm sure Craig Breslow will be sitting down with Andrew Bailey in discussing what available value oriented "project" starting pitcher possibilities they may be able to realistically obtain ... I totally agree that another starter is greatly needed especially with the likely desire that Alex Cora will want to go with a six man rotation at certain times for the remainder of the season ... Trading for a starter who can be quickly turned around by correcting a minor flaw with their delivery should not cost a lot in trade capitol or create a "road block" with John Henry's "tight fisted wallet" and ongoing unwillingness in having to over spend ...

Honestly just get a number 2 elite pitcher and this team can really compete with anyone.

We keep wilyer abreu and get rid of typer oneil and masa

What do you think about trading for Patrick Sandoval? I know hes been kind of bad after the Wbc but he has a lot of breaking stuff which fits into Andrew's philosophy

Most things in life come with a great sacrifice and another thing they could do is consider the Dominican league and see if they can get a good Pitcher on the DL. ❤

Crochet would be a great fit, but the asking price would probably be higher than the red sox are willing to pay… also the booby traps hidden around fenway that keep injuring half the roster seem to go after former white sox pitchers with particular zeal, so there’s that risk too.

Do u think redsox are having Abreu playing much games because to get his value up . They'll use him a trade bait to bring in pitcher

I'd probably be happy with the trade you proposed but as weird as it feels to say this... I don't wanna see Hammy go. I've really started liking the guy

I'm all for getting a left handed starter however I think the asking price is going to be very high and I'm all for bringing in another shortstop. If they could get these guys without having to part with important prospects. My guess is Craig won't do it but I would be ok if he did.

I really liked Cedanne at SS. Duran can play center. Just need to get Abreau back. Crochet is fine if you don't mind giving up 3 or 4 top prospects.

Yeah I go after Paul dejong

Redsox should Make a Trade for Cal Quantrill and would be great fit in Boston

You can't platoon Dejong and Hamy if you trade Hamy. Rethink your logic.

I think ownership would want a pitcher with potential, but can sign cheaper and save money. I mean, golf balls aren’t cheap.

Trying to figure out when we became the Tampa Bay rays of building a baseball team correct me if I’m wrong I don’t think Tampa has has ever won a world series competive yes playoffs yes world series championships 0

Don't need the short stop.. If you're gonna trade with the White Sox, I'd get the starter and get Michael Kopeck back..

If this past winter was “Full Throttle” the trade deadline will be marginal at best. Let’s see how the next 3 weeks go?

No no no. At this point stick to the strategy. No rentals. No short terms. Extend players you have developed and continue developing that core. Maaaaybe next year bring in the compliments. Hold for now and dump a couple of pieces.

Not weissert or Hamilton I guess id be okay with weissert but def not hammy honestly he’s young and he has started putting it all together

They do NOT need a shortstop. They have Hamilton. They have Rafaela. No need whatsoever.

Don’t see a rebuilding team trading a 24 year old pitcher. DeJong would fit great in lineup

I'll take the SS for sure.... that's sounds too good...above average defensive having his best year at the plate...get him... going to be some weak prospect that gets Garritt too..watch

Giving up Abreu & Hamilton? No way!

Id love the sox to go after him

If we somehow revert to the Sox of old World Series or bust manny Ramirez Pedro Martinez Juan Soto with our talent with young players and veterans and pitching we would be World Series contenders for the next 5 years it won’t happen but it did happen not to long ago

Nope not trading Abreu I came in this season saying he was the best prospect we have and he’s been killing it prob a top 3 favorite for ROTY so far so no I’ll take my chances with this team than trading Abreu away

Like Hamilton at SS

I think Garrett crochet would be a great fit or you could go for Jezus luzardo

Redsox are very dangerous!!!! Celtics are champs and the Sox are playing great

Soto only 25 so even 10 years he will still only be 35 when his contract is up this is not like the angels signing puljos you still get at 7 years of Soto in his prime

Here we go with the comments of not trading prospects cause they are so great, overvaluing prospects instead of getting very good mlb players

Why would the White Sox trade a young pitcher under control for 3 more years?

I’m extending Duran because he’s the face of this franchise I believe at this point and I’d 100% want him to retire a Red Sox. They’re just nothing you can’t like about him. Houck is the guy I’m 100 million percent signing to an extension. He is our ace and he can thrive under Baileys system. I just don’t even want to make any trades. I only care about resigning

Screw this trade.

This could be uglier than ‘full throttle “ Red Sox playing really well and they are sellers anyway..the argument is it would be a mistake to not acquire young controllable talent from sought after players that offer no value to your organization beyond 2024…Pivetta ,Oniel , Kenley , Martin are all going to extremely valuable trade pieces that could bring in prospects that could help get you a Crochet …the 2024 Red Sox might be sacrificed on the alter for the benefit of the future.

Not his first MLB season dude

We're Not Ready Yet....Stay The Course................I'll Take Mayer @ SS

The only guy I’d prob want to trade for is Reese Olson. This guy is actually disgusting and I think the Tigers gonna dump him giving their situation

W Abreu !!!!!!!!!!!!!!’

He’s on pace for 200 Ks

Hay que conseguir a crochet

Let's go C'S

Give them O Neil.

I’m really curious to see what we’d be able to get for kenley, I feel like that trade is pretty set in stone to happen. Despite him performing well so far

If we play a one and done playoff game I consider it a above season we have some young players who are playing all year we have talent we aren’t winning anything this year however next year if everyone stays healthy and we make a good move or two with Whitlock coming back and maybe gilito returning to form with houck and bello getting his ass together we have the makings of a very competitive team next year and doing some damage
