i agree, the thing that keeps coming to my mind is what is jr willing to spend? the thing is and i am glad you address the money thing, b/c several has already mention this before. we are pretty much at or above the salary that jr is willing to accept. so again, what is going to be address, what is the piority of needs. Rex brought up some great points and i wanted to see where is thoughts are in ref to what he said about the pitching. my guess, is are the sox willing to go with what is already in the system with pitching and address other needs? maybe. but kw did say that he will sign a fa starting pitcher. i would like to know what other needs will be address then and how.

oh i know that, i hit the wrong button, but i know or i hope jim know i wasn't flaming him and the only one i was ref to is me................. but just in case, i am sorry for that jim.

let think about it, this season may prove that it is a good time to be a pitcher who is a fa. with a lot of teams looking at improving their rotation, why would any sign with the sox. are we close to being a contender? (randy johnson wish) is kw going to open the jr pocket book to sign one? (only time and wishful thinking) b/c they love the tradition of being on the team?(hahaha) why???

so we trade paulie, so who are you going to put at 1b, big frank? and if you put big frank at first who is going to dh? lets get this straight, the sox will not sign a fa who is a client of boras.

why where is reed?????????? isn't he still with the sox????? oh s***, i was thinking of something witty and funny to redeem myself here, but f*** it. i screwed up and yes i did mention wing. i was wrong b/c i forgot something and i talked thru my arse on this. i feel like an idiot here. damn oh well shoot me. :banghead but i still stand by what i meant on how a prospect is rated. i was making the rating on how and who is going to make it to the majors in that order. i have always had a problem of the prospect ratings, are they rated based on overall talent or are they based on the ascending order of those who is going to make it to the majors.

no b/c kw and the sox will not take the risk of being accuse of tampering. plain and simple.

i have a feeling if they are going to trade for someone, it is going to be for a closer.

i don't know, i am doing this in the order that i see them making the majors. mccarthy anderson fields sweeney either young or wing (imo, there are both close)

i agree

Rex and Jim, finally someone to explain what i been trying to say, without the proper words of expression and meaning. i have been say for several yrs that kw is trading for now and all i been recieving is "when was the last time the sox won a series, lets win this yr". i am not for that if he planned it better, but he didn't. i believe in developing a strong farm where you can bring in a prospect or 2 to fill in a need and have a surplus to make a trade for a player that is needed. kw, imho, gave up tooooo much in some of these trades, way to much. Rex, you mention to give some of the young pitchers a chance, when now or next yr and if it is next yr, who are you suggesting????? as sad i am to see jose go, b/c of his leadership qualities, but we need a change, joe c is going no where as paulie. maybe paulie will be involve in a trade later in the season, depending on his performance and where the sox are heading. i see 2 glaring holes, an of'er position and imo a sp esp a #1. what are your opinions, i would like to know.

Holy s***!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 19 yrs old, damn you life just started.............. wait until you hit your 20's. many best wishes!!!!!!!!!1

welcome

he was my guy, i was and still is rooting for him. i just feel bad that he was never able to get rid of the injury jinx. just like l. barcelo. i still wish the best for him.

this has to be the most stupidest comment i have ever read, explain how it is ape porn????

your opinion only.

i agree with you 100 % and then sox fan something tries to play that it was a hand full of us who got upset, for lack of words. words that can be taken as racist.

Bryan Smith welcome to the board. i hope you like the place. we as die hard fans defends our boys and love to talk baseball. i would love to have been on this from the beginning, beside that, good info on the prospects.

you have so many holes in your theory. randy johnson will need to sign off on the trade, do you think he will? arz still wants a #1 cat in any trade with johnson, are we giving them any? do we have a prospects to give to arz to fill up the incentive for arz to ok the trade, are we giving up too much? trade garland for sariano, i personally don't like the idea of this trade, but then we need to sign 2 pitchers, guess what, how many teams is going to the fa market thinking of signing fa pitchers???? its not like we are the only team wanting players. sexson, why????

we are going to have holes to fill, sariano is going for arb and so is garland. if sariano is going to make some 8 mil, do you think we should spend what ever money is allotted there and not address a problem sign 2 pitchers to help, one of which will be garland???

pintos
