Tyson Ross could be a steal for someone that has the money and patience.
Ross and Greg Holland are two value plays for teams with risk tolerance.

Tyson Ross was non-tendered by a team currently rolling with Luis Perdomo, Christian Friedrich, Paul Clemens, Jarred Cosart, and Cesar Vargas. A non-contender will give him a pillow deal and probably DFA him before he pitches in the show.
Seems Chicago might actually be willing to deal Sale this time. Washington front runner, which I think makes sense given their window versus Houston or Boston. Hope it hurts to the tune of Robles/Lopez+
What gives you that impression? Everything I've read says that they won't lower their asking price for Sale (e.g. they want Turner from the Nationals, which obviously ain't happening).
Wow - did not see that coming. Seems like a win/win. Playoff rotation of Price/Sale/Porcello/Wright? Pretty sick.
Except for this:
David Price in the post-season: 9 starts 2-8 5.54 ERA
Rick Porcello in the post-season: 9 games 0-3 5.66 ERA
Wright and Sale have never pitched in the post-season, but Wright is 31 year-old, who resurrected his career as a knuckle-baller, and knuckle-ballers and are very unreliable in the post-season (RA Dickey 0-1 7.11 ERA; Tim Wakefield 5-7 6.75 ERA)
I don't really think that postseason stats have much predictive value for the most part.
