[QUOTE="IlliniJim20, post: 1358677, member: 10516"] Not Kopech. And not without signing him. I am not sure what to make of all this tbh. Hahn has done a great job of positioning the team for 2019, 2020 (maybe) and beyond. I don't see how he would jeopardize that future by trading foundational pieces without some guarantee Machado is here long term. My read: 1) he has the agreement to sign. OR 2) he is not giving up any, or more than one, players deemed as foundational. I don't know exactly who they are, but guessing Kopech, Robert, maybe Lucas are untradeable OR 3) He has a deal to flip Machado for players better than he is trading away. I also read Machado wants to return to his natural position of shortstop. Are White Sox willing to do that? Is he better defensively than Anderson? [/QUOTE]
