I can't see any reason why the Sox wouldn't call up Bogaerts in the very near future. For f***'s sake they've got two nobodies manning the hot corner right now. How can Bogaerts be any worse? He's our SS of the future for sure, but right now he needs to be here to add his bat into the mix.
-
f*** yes... what a huge win. Back in first where we belong.
-
For my money... yes. This is a steal of a trade as it sits now. Obviously that could change down the road, but on paper, we made out like bandits.
-
Replaceable... not worried at all there.
-
So Iggy and three guys almost no one has heard of... that's the definition of a steal in my book
-
The difference between the prospects it would have took to get Lee and what we sent to get Peavy is like night and day too. Not to mention the amount of money involved in Lee's contract, vs. what we've committed to Peavy for rest of this year and next.
-
I don't think he needs to outperform Buch, Lester, or Lackey. He's not needed to be an ace. He's a solid #3 that goes after hitters and is a leader in the clubhouse. You put him in with our current top three and then have Doubront/Dempster as a #5, and we're good to go for the playoffs.
-
He also K'd 10.9 per 9 in 2012, so there's that. He's got a live arm but has control issues. Throw in for now, but could be more, if he gets some control. Not saying he will, but I like it. I've seen worse throw ins than him...
-
Can't just look at this year... last season he was pretty decent. Right now, he's just a throw in, but he obviously has talent. http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/v/villabr02.shtml

Here's the latest from Speier...
-
Cafardo says it looks like Tigers are sending Brayan Villarreal back to Boston. Not bad. 26 yo RH BP arm. Horrid this year but was solid last year. 54.2 IP, 66/28 K/BB ratio. Something decent at least, if he can regain his form.
-
Isn't he injured? I'd think he'd have to be a PTBNL if so.
-
Per Sean McAdam, we're getting a prospect back in return with Peavy. Doubt it will be much, but can't complain to get an extra arm (or bat) to fill out the farm.
-
Looks pretty solid if this is how it shakes out.
-
You're forgetting the ChiSox are getting Garcia from the Tigers. A 20 HR, 80 RBI guy in the outfield that's been rated as one of the Tigers best prospects for a bit now. Combine that with a mid level prospect from the Sox, and maybe they send a low level guy back to Detroit, and it's a pretty decent deal all around.
-
Still time to go... Iggy wasn't bringing a bat back. Now it's time to look at Young or someone else.
-
They can absolutely afford his weak bat in that lineup. His defense will be a MASSIVE improvement over Peralta. Sucks he's going to a WS contender but it is what it is.
-
Hearing Iggy is going to Detroit. Tigers pulled top prospect Avasail Garcia tonight as well. Maybe he's headed to Chicago? Tigers need backup for when Peralta gets nailed for PEDs
-
s*** is getting real...
-
Yes. I highly doubt JBJ would be involved in anything less than a deal for Lee. He's too valuable. Iggy on the other hand is expendable, especially if we bring up Bogaerts. Love his defense at short (not really so much at third) and his bat is just meh... the early season pop has predictably disappeared. Okay if he goes to get something good back in return.
-
Rosentwat just tweeted that Callaspo was pulled by the Halos... perhaps to the Yanks?
-
Looks like we're out on Lee...
-
Hmm... Not sure on Peavy. Depends on what we give up
-
Add this into the mix...
-
Confused? I know I am
