Sale will have a serious injury sooner or later. Great player, but its coming. I would be more inclined to get Quintana. Wouldnt cost as much and I feel safer with him. He is what 25? This is just all non sense cause I doubt we try for either. Just talking.
Cubs are in a good position. Lets hope they make the right moves to make next season exciting.
Quintana is too inconsistent for me. Though I think Bosio could make him a better pitcher.
We'll all love the games he throws a 3 hit, 9 strikeout shutout. But he mixes a start he cant get out of the second inning right after.
White Sox will definitely be selling on Danks. I don't like his shoulder situation.
I only brought up Sale because if the cubs were serious about making a push, that would be a guy you go for. Now I'm not a fool, he won't come cheap. Nor do I care to wonder what the White Sox board is like.
If the Sox are listening/taking offers because they elected to go the route of rebuilding, it would be stupid not to talk to them/see what they want, must have, and not want in a potential deal.
I'll certainly take a Chris Sale with a major injury coming over a Cole Hamels. Plus how do you know he has a major injury coming? Because of his mechanics? His 3/4 arm slot throw?
You know what that throwing style reminds me of?

Johnson's had a quite successful career relatively free of injuries.
