Would You Trade Anyone? Or Do You Have Untouchables?

Who cares?!?!

When we become good we can address it then with really anybody. See 2005 White Sox

The bullpen is running outta quality arms so lets trade a 24 yr old guy like Addy.

Brilliant.

Sale is a good prospect. Trade away a sure thing for a mid level prospect or 2? No thanks. I'll keep him.

Who cares if it runs out of arms. Raise your hand if you think there is even a 3% chance of us finishing .500 this year? There's no need for them. I am not saying you actively ship Reed out for any junk, but you do ship him out for a good prospect on the ofensive side or potential Starting Pitcher 1-3.

Please just look at how easy it is to get closers. They are like kickers in the NFL

Closers that have more than 3 or 4 good seasons don't come around often. In fact, Rivera might be the only closer to have a whole career full of success in the last 10-20 years.

Closers come and go so easily. Why not trade Reed when his price is high and worry about finding a guy to close games out later when the Sox don't suck?
