Duke, LaRoche, Samardjia, Robertson brought in so far.
Nasty rotation and a pretty good offense... Didn't see them making this many moves. LaRoche was a solid add to pair with Abreu

The price for Samardzija seems pretty low. Semien, Bassitt and one more. One more data point about the buyer's market for pitching this off-season.
If confirmed, the A's will have their SS and Bassitt looks like a decent prospect. Curious to see who the third player will be.

How years of control does Samarjalakjdasd; have again? Thats why the price was low.

That's true. But it was a relevant one to the discussion, and it seems to me--and I've tried to avoid the bulk of it lately--that the people being negative about the people being negative about Heyward are "louder" and more numerous than the other side. *shrug* It doesn't bother me either way, as I see this stuff as completely natural after such a short time following a big change. Takes people time to adjust (on both sides).

I've read a lot of writers comment that the sentiment around MLB is the Cards overpaid for Heyward.
So...suck it everyone.
I think this is a decent trade for both teams. Fair. If the Sox sign Jeff, I say the edge goes to Oakland. If the Sox don't sign him and get a draft pick when he signs elsewhere, I say the edge goes to them.
White Sox are heading in the right direction. That division is very winnable too. Another sneaky team is Minnesota if they can get some starting pitching.
