You can pick up to 4 players. Go for it! I'd offer a prize if the forum would let me. I can edit one in if it is allowed ( I have never asked before ).
The deadline is Midnight on the 30th when all projections must be in. I believe the deadline is sometime on the 31st for all trades to be done.
I'll go first but it's total conjecture for me. I am throwing darts on this one. Lester, Gomes, Drew, Doubront.

It might be more than 4 guys. Lester is a goner, unfortunately. Miller will be dealt. Carp will be discarded. Doubront will be traded, too.
But there will probably be others. Gomes is a good candidate to go. Drew is a candidate as well.
At this point, since it's questionable that the Sox will be a serious contender in 2015 without a pitcher the caliber of Jon Lester, they might as well go all the way and deal Koji and trade Lackey, who could have some serious value. If anybody wants Buchholz, they can have him, too.

I would have voted for Badenhop if it weren't for the limit, and for Breslow if he'd been included. Maybe Ross, too.

I voted Lester, Gomes, Miller, Badenhop.
I think Carp and Doubront need to build more value before being traded. I do think Drew will be traded but that might be after the deadline.

I can't see how Breslow is worth trading for. When you're 1:1 BB/K and throwing 87-88, I don't even think he's roster-worthy on our team, let alone on one with playoff-hopes. I don't think it's a case of him getting it together. It's not there.

My picks: Lester Miller Carp Badenhop
I also think Gomes and Doubront have a good chance of being traded.
Predictions on destination and return: Lester and Luiz Diaz to LAD for Seager + Reed + fringe or low-level guy(s) Miller + Carp to PIT for Bell + fringe or low-level guy(s) Badenhop for a C+ prospect
Sleeper pick: Lackey (plus cash) and Gomes to KC for Mondesi and Dozier

I voted: Lester Miller Carp Gomes (Badenhop would've made an appearance if 5 were allowed)
With Drew being moved after July 31st but before the waiver deadline in August.
I hope you're right, Chavopepe. Would love to have an influx of that many assets.

Lester, Miller, Gomes and Badenhop. Lester will be traded tomorrow afternoon to Toronto and start against the Red Sox . Breslow stays because he has no value. Douby gets traded in offseason. Drew gets traded in August.

Talk about the wisdom of crowds ... seven guys were traded, and they were the top seven vote getters.
