Frank_Thomas Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Looks like it was just all positioning the past two days, once the smoke clears well see who held out longer us or them: Â Â Danny Knobler of CBSSports.com tweets the White Sox appear to be the most likely destination for Youkilis and, as of yesterday, the two teams were haggling over money. Knobler adds in a separate tweet that Youkilis is not headed to the Dodgers. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxfan49 Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 I'm not sure how anyone could hate this move. Boston will likely pay most of his remaining salary. Stewart is nothing more than a AAAA pitcher. If Youkilis comes here and hits .260, it's a good move. Way to go, KW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donny Lucy's Avocado Farm Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Man, the White Sox clubhouse boy is going to be pissed. Gonna have to get more towels for the sweatiest man in baseball. Â Â Also, I hope we fans can stop b****ing about our GM. He is actually trying to improve the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank_Thomas Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Awesome trust me I think this is a move that is ends up being the difference maker. All this guy needs is a new team and manager and he'll resort back to the .260-.275 Youk and be a great asset to the bottom of our lineup. Nice wok Kenny, no if it isn't to much to ask go and snag us a starter before our Division rivials have a chance to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donny Lucy's Avocado Farm Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 I wonder if Lillibridge has been traded, why the Red Sox would want him. Don't they already have about 6 MLB-level Of'ers with a few more on the DL? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prochisox Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 My guess is it's Stewart and Ozzie Martinez... Doesn't seem like they have room on the 40 man roster and we just took Martinez off ours.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balta1701 Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Well, if we're giving up Lilli too, hopefully we're not paying a cent and there's some deal regarding his option if we pick that up. Even if the team has soured on him again, not thrilled about giving that piece up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daa84 Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Despite being primarily an OFer with the sox, lillibridge was thought of as a + defensive SS throughout his tour in the minors. The guy is actually decently valuable, but certainly expendable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank_Thomas Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 I don't see us parting with Lilli nor Esco. It won't be something off the roster unless it's O-Dog. Once the sox game is over KW will emerge with his smirke bragging about how he made a dollar out of .50 in faith that we the sox fans start showing up. I think Lilli and Esco are safe.
