Wow.

I don't know how I feel. It would be amazing but our issue is more offense. Dang he'd bolster our rotation though. Folty-Teheran-Folty is a really good 1-2-3
To paraphrase John Hart, he's the right player at the wrong time.

Yeah, if we are giving up the ridiculous amount of talent it would take to get Sale we better be signing Cespedes and Desmond this offseason, otherwise it would be a pretty bad idea.Originally Posted by UNCBlue012

I just question if Folty can handle that kind of a load.

Won't happen. Braves don't have enough major league talent to acquire him.
The White Sox wouldn't be looking for major league talent.
I do not, however, want us to go after him. And I assume we won't.
I was implying that the Braves only trade away major league players because they can't part ways with the coveted prospects.
Well considering that they are seeking prospects....
All speculation at this point. I think he's going to Baltimore.
He got in a fight with front office personnel tonight and was pulled from the clubhouse. Maybe they told him he was going to the Braves and his response was..."I'm not going to that **** show."
It makes sense because he's controlled through 2019. We could put Inciarte out there to try and get him.
thank you weso1!
Offer them Albies, but they might need to add a prospect.

Exactly the Braves need hitter not give them away. Here's what I'd offer.
Inciarte, Wisler, Blair, Ruiz and Fried for Sale

Can you imagine what they'd gave up for Sale this past off-season? They'd gave up so much that I am not sure Arizona would have any prospects left. Partly joking mind you but you know what I mean. :)
I'd give up mostly pitching but I still expect them to want more hitters. I don't see us making a trade for Sale without losing Swanson and/or Albies. They may even ask for both given what they've already turned down for Sale and are asking from Texas.
Sales great but he'd destroy the rebuild. I'm more interested in the Rays pitchers due to cost.
I couldn't be more opposed to trading for Chris Sale right now. We aren't close to winning anything, and it would hurt us 3-4 years from now.
Stay the course and keep building the farm to an ungodly level.

That would be my concern with trading off Swanson and/or Albies in a big package for Sale.
Trading either would be extremely stupid. This front office is a joke if they think we are going to compete for the playoffs next year unless we spend a boatload of cash this winter.
We are 2 years away at best.
