  1. HEY KW GO AHEAD AND TRADE MB YOU f***ING MORON!!!!! FLOYD IS THE GREATEST MINOR LEAGUE PITCHER EVER!!!!!!!!!!!
  2. QUOTE(spiderman @ Jul 6, 2007 -> 04:55 PM) Bruce Levine is reporting today that the talks are dead. If true, he only has a few more days/weeks here. Well if this is true and they trade MB, I believe this will go down as one of the dumbest moves ever made by this Org. The guy is giving you a great discount and you refuse to give him a NTC. It's just asinine to me. I have lost alot of respect for JR and KW and this Org. on the way this has all played out in the media and the way the Org. has handled this situation with MB. Whatever happened to loyalty to your players and allegiance to players that have been nothing but the model of consistency on and off the field. They expect the fans to be loyal, yet they aren't loyal to their own players. I could understand if what MB was asking for was unreasonable, but to lose him because he wants a guarantee that he is gonna be here for 4 years is a damn shame. Like I said I have lost alot of respect for the whole Org. and as far as I am concerned if MB is traded I believe I am gonna have to question my loyalty and allegiance to this Orginazation. I know I may catch alot of heat for that statement, but it's just the way I feel. I feel as a fan that JR and KW aren't as committed to winning as they say, allowing the face of your franchise to get away.
  3. I have a bad feeling Gavin is gonna get lit up tonight.
  4. After this debacle I wouldn't be surprised if they announce that tehy have agreed to a contract with MB. Just to appease the fans. I'm just throwing that out there.
  5. HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAAHAHAAHAHHAHAAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!
  6. QUOTE(kwolf68 @ Jul 6, 2007 -> 03:55 PM) In my personal opinion I think Buehrle will be dealt to St.Louis if anywhere. The Cards know they probably could resign him. Trouble is, the Cards don't have a lot in their system and Reyes -while being a fine prospect at one time- is starting to look like trouble. I would take Reyes, but Colby Rasmus has to be one of the other TWO prospects we get back. Don't know the 2nd guy I'd want, but yes....Rasmus and Reyes is a solid starting point. Reyes has been getting absolutely rocked this year. I don't want anything to do with him. But who knows, maybe Coop can fix him.
  7. QUOTE(29thandPoplar @ Jul 6, 2007 -> 03:46 PM) Thanks for posting this, interesting info. It's all speculation anyways but Stark generally has his ear to the ground. None of these people have the true scoop but Stark is one of the better ones. It also said in the article St. Louis is an option for MB with Reyes being the main guy we would get back. Take it for what it's worth. like you said it's all speculation. I also saw this on another site but not sure where it is from: White Sox LHP Buehrle plays games with reporters CHICAGO (TICKER) -- Mark Buehrle was still a Chicago White Sox pitcher on Friday afternoon despite being seen cleaning out his locker prior to the start of a doubleheader against the Minnesota Twins. Buehrle was apparently playing a joke on reporters by packing up his belongings with the White Sox, insisting he was not being traded and is still scheduled to pitch on Saturday.
  8. QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 6, 2007 -> 03:32 PM) Um, no. f*** that. If they want to toss in an extra A prospect in exchange for the Sox taking that contract off their hands then maybe but I don't want Lugo as a major part of any deal. Whatever happens with this situation. The Whitesox could not have handled this any worse. I've lost alot of respect for this ORG. through all this.
  9. And this from Jayson Stark ESPN Insider Jul 6 - According to ESPN.com's Jayson Stark, the White Sox are reportedly marketing Buehrle aggressively, but teams are balking at the price -- three players with two being prime-time prospects. Stark is also hearing that Boston might be getting back in on Buehrle and trying to expand the deal to include Julio Lugo.
  10. Off topic this is from Ken Rosenthal: The stalemate in the White Sox's negotiations with left-hander Mark Buehrle is fueling industry speculation that Sox general manager Ken Williams will soon trade the pitcher. "I get that sense from talking to people and from the (White Sox's) response to us, but it's hard to tell — Kenny loves disinformation," says an executive from an interested club. Another executive flatly predicts a trade, saying White Sox owner Jerry Reinsdorf won't give in to Buehrle's desire for a full no-trade clause — and that Buehrle is just as stubborn.
  11. Garland just didn't have it today. I think all this Mn s*** and trade speculation is getting to these guy a little. MB said last night that he is getting tired of the rumors and everything. I wish KW would just make a decision either way and bring it to an end. This is getting to be a big distraction.
  12. Well considering Ozzie had a closed door meeting today before the game with KW telling him how he think they still have a run in them, and that he still thinks this team can compete and get back in the playoff race, i hope today he realizes that the little run we had was against s*** teams. I hope Ozzie will finally realize that this team ain't go nowhere. It cannot play with superior teams. Today is a perfect example. Our defense is terrible, and having Owens and Uribe 1 and 2 is a joke. Wake up Ozzie this team is DONE!!!!!!!!!! Rebuild it!!!!
  13. The future of this Org. doesn't look good at all.
  14. I have no confidence with our Org drafting players and devloping them.
  15. I am so anxious to see how KW is gonna possibly improve this team next year. What possibly canhe do?? Nobody is gonna give you s*** for JC. Do you trade JV?? JG?? MB?? I mean how the hell are we gonna get some young talent into this Org.?? I just don't see many of our players having any kind of trade value, except for JG, MB, and possibly JV. Dye isn't worth a damn. Thome??
  16. QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 4, 2007 -> 07:56 PM) There's no way you get another team to take on his whole contract right now, and there's no way you'll get anything useful in return. We might have to take on a bad contract if we really feel like he's never going to help us again. I wouldn't expect anything back for him at all. I'm just thinking the Mets might take a chance on him. Well let's say I guess I am hoping the Mets take a chance on him and reuniting him with El Duque This is where the offense won't get another hit the rest of the game. We suck against opposing teams bullpens. I wish we could face our own, I am curious to see how they would fare against our hitters. Probably shut them down!!!
  17. Wow did we let this guy off the hook. Any other lineup and this guy would have never gotten out of the 1st inning. Our offense is pathetic
  18. Does anyone thinkthat JC would at least have a little more success in the NL. I am praying some team takes a chance on him and trades for him. I want to get rid of this contract!!
  19. This from Ken Rosenthal: The Mark Buehrle contract will get done. It has to get done. The difference between Buehrle and the White Sox — a year-and-a-half of no-trade protection — is too small for the deal to collapse. The Sox are offering Buehrle a full no-trade clause for 2008, the first year of his proposed four-year, $56 million contract extension. Buehrle, 28, would become a 10-and-5 player — 10 years of major-league service, five with the same club — in July of 2010, giving him the power to veto any deal. Bridging the gap shouldn't be all that difficult. Just do it with money. The Sox could increase the average annual value of Buehrle's deal. They could include a multi-million dollar bonus if he is traded. They could even give him a fifth guaranteed year, though they already have made a concession by going beyond three. Whichever path they chose, the Sox still would be getting a bargain. Buehrle might command a six-year, $96 million contract as a free agent this off-season — and he's willing to sign for $50 million less. Consider: The Astros signed right-hander Roy Oswalt to a five-year, $73 million contract with full no-trade protection last season when Oswalt was more than a year away from free agency. Buehrle isn't as good as Oswalt, but he's not far off — plus, he's left-handed. The White Sox would be signing him for one fewer year and a lower average salary than Oswalt at a time when the price for starting pitching is skyrocketing. The difficult part is over. The deal will get done. The White Sox still will be sellers if they sign Buehrle, but their chances of making an impact trade would diminish significantly. The team's other potential free agents, outfielder Jermaine Dye and second baseman Tadahito Iguchi, aren't playing well enough to generate quality offers, and few clubs are interested in acquiring right-hander Jose Contreras, who is guaranteed $20 million over the next two seasons and in decline. Still, White Sox general manager Ken Williams is endlessly creative, and he apparently has a number of ideas in play. Williams, for example, has talked with the Devil Rays about his available starting pitchers — Buehrle, Contreras and right-hander Javier Vazquez. In each case, the Devil Rays could either flip the pitcher they acquired or retain him as a veteran anchor, presumably with the White Sox including significant money in the trade. That's just one possibility; Williams probably has had similar conversations with 20 other clubs. In any case, he almost certainly would use the Buehrle signing as a launching point for other moves.
