LDF

he does have a chance to go back to texas after a certain time. i think in ref in able to negoiate with your own team. what i love is the irony of this. here tx offered him 2 yrs at 10 mil or something like that. on the advice of boras, he turns it down. now he might have to go back with his tail between his legs and plead for a contract that will be a lot less then the one they offered. i love it.

i would like to say welcome and you have a great post. i am glad another inform fan is posting. so what are you saying ldf.. the rest of us are not informed?????? everyone except you!

its been said that kw has pulled the offer and walked away. know kw temper that is over and done with and i will not and don't blame him for this. jeez i am actually defending kw.

we are talking incentive laiden contract, what is he soooo afraid off if he is the pitcher that he thinks he is? we are talking about bonus beside that in a contract for playing in the playoff, how much money does that come too? maybe not that much but its a little more than he would let say if he plays for let say tpa. we are talking about the biggest prize of all, the possibliity of going to the series and then some. how many times has he done that? what a freaking idiot.

I love it when you knock Evans - you may be the only person in the world besides me who thinks little of his GM abilities - keep it up and I will write you into my will! If that's the case....EVANS SUCKS, EVANS SUCKS....HE'S AN IDIOT, AN EVEN BIGGER ONE THAN KW....I WANT TO GET INTO CWSOX'S WILL....EVANS SUCKS, EVANS SUCKS Anyways....I think KW is actually understanding how to GM....and he's doing a good job of it(aside from Buehrle's situation)....he's just gotta quite favoring players and making them 'his boys.' Valentin, Lee, etc.....if a great trade came up, say two top prospects for CLee, I don't know what would happen....but I hope he'd accept it. he has done somewhat good at getting the sox better, does that mean he has turn the corner of being clueless? i thought evans was good enuf to be the gm but listening and watching his moves, i am not too sure now. but i still think kw f***s up hasn't gotten off the hook quite yet. imho. i want to see more of the same things he did this past months to think differently. for what it is worth, i still don't believe he was the one in charge of the colon trade, but for lack of better evidence beside conflicting reports i have read, i will give in the that thought. he was the mastermine of this trade.

boras is a freaking idiot and rogers is a bigger one for believing that he is worth it.

i agree he was a very good prospect and too bad for his injuries

yeah, what that little f***er said....lol. who loves ya roman???.. ... not only can i beat on him nightly but i can kick ldf's butt too..lol.. gotta love it here.......where else can ya dish out all this abuse and still be loved so greatly......lmao............. of course JAS AND MARIO and everyone else do a fantastic job keeping us in line and always talking up a storm... they keep us informed and they dont make us use the soap or send us to the corner when we swear.....lol......keep up the good work guys you make it a fun place to be..............

boras is really gonna screw KR over....be funny if kenny ended up in japan. another typical screwing of the sox by boras. i am seeing boras as toying with kw and the sox on this one, i wonder if rogers was every interested in signing with the sox? kw did all that he can and iwill give him credit for this. now lets not go after any player who has boras as an agent.

here is ba reading of jared. he is rank #7 in the overall prospect ranking of both prep and college players. 7. Jared Hughes, rhp, Santa Margarita HS, Laguna Niguel, Calif. Six-foot-5, 220-pound righthander surged to forefront among prep pitchers by showcasing 96 mph fastball in fall. however should the sox go after a cat in which they really need. 17. Landon Powell, c, South Carolina Strong and durable at 6-foot-4 and 225 pounds, Powell has plus power and excels in all phases of catching. what gets me is that the sox could have drafted him in the later rounds last yr but didn't or how bout brownlie 9. Bobby Brownlie, rhp, Edison, N.J. Brownlie didn’t show his best stuff last spring—a 95-96 mph fastball and hammer curve—and remains unsigned. Remains under control to Cubs.

1. Devil Rays 2. Brewers 3. Tigers 4. Padres 5. Royals 6. Cubs 7. Orioles 8. Pirates 9. Rangers 10. Rockies 11. Indians 12. Mets 13. Blue Jays 14. Reds 15. White Sox 16. Marlins 17. Red Sox 18. Phillies 19. Mariners 20. Expos 21. Twins 22. Astros 23. Angels 24. Dodgers 25. Athletics 26. Giants 27. Yankees 28. Cardinals 29. Diamondbacks 30. Braves Mock First Round No team in baseball is as deep in outfield prospects as the Devil Rays, who will have the No. 1 overall pick in the draft next year. If it’s another young outfielder they desire, they’ll have a rich crop to pick from. The draft Class of 2003 is loaded in outfield talent, with six of the projected top seven prospects playing that position. The top four high school prospects are outfielders, as is the top college prospect–though Southern’s Rickie Weeks, the NCAA’s leading hitter, has some experience at second base. If he picks up the position, that may give him the inside edge in going No. 1 overall–especially if the Devil Rays are looking for a double-play partner for shortstop B.J. Upton, the No. 2 overall pick this year. Here’s an early look at how the 2003 draft may unfold: 1. Rickie Weeks, 2b/of, Southern U. 2. Lastings Milledge, of, Lakewood Ranch HS, Sarasota, Fla. 3. Delmon Young, of, Camarillo (Calif.) HS 4. Kyle Sleeth, rhp, Wake Forest U. 5. Michael Aubrey, 1b/of, Tulane U. 6. Ryan Harvey, of, Dunedin HS, Palm Harbor, Fla. 7. Chris Lubanski, of, Kennedy-Kenrick Catholic HS, Schwenksville, Pa. 8. Jeff Allison, rhp, Veterans Memorial HS, Peabody, Mass. 9. Kyle Bakker, lhp, Georgia Tech 10. Tim Stauffer, rhp, U. of Richmond 11. Brad Sullivan, rhp, U. of Houston 12. Matt Murton, of, Georgia Tech 13. Jeff Manship, rhp, Ronald Reagan HS, San Antonio 14. Chad Billingsley, rhp, Defiance (Ohio) HS 15. Jared Hughes, rhp, Santa Margarita HS, Laguna Niguel, Calif. 16. David Aardsma, rhp, Rice U. 17. Andrew Miller, lhp, Buchholz HS, Gainesville, Fla. 18. James Houser, lhp, Sarasota (Fla.) HS 19. Robert Lane, ss/rhp, Neville HS, Monroe, La.; 20. Matt Brown, rhp, U. of California 21. Landon Powell, c, U. of South Carolina 22. Ryan Sweeney, lhp/of, Xavier HS, Cedar Rapids, Iowa 23. Carlos Quentin, of, Stanford U. 24. Tony Richie, c, Florida State U. 25. Paul Maholm, lhp, Mississippi State U. 26. Aaron Hill, ss-3b, Louisiana State U. 27. Craig Whitaker, rhp, Lufkin (Texas) HS 28. Jonathan Fulton, ss, George Washington HS, Danville, Va. 29. Conor Jackson, 1b/3b, U. of California 30. Wes Littleton, rhp, Cal State Fullerton

i would like to say welcome and you have a great post. i am glad another inform fan is posting.

i would be really piss off if boras uses this as a tool to get another team to sign him to a better contract.

like we have any chance at all in getting either one of the players mention. btw, for your info (sp) mean as far as i know misspelled. you have in several times in the past came at me with my spelling. so what gives? do you have a prob with me?

can i at least have a smoke for the screwing i got? be my guest with ur cigarette, but you can't smoke it in my house. ummmm where was i, oh yeah there is going to be over 90 pitchers who can throw over 90 mph. oak had 6 draft choices before the 2 round was over and no they are going to have 2 more in the first round, one with the thanks of kw. man we could have sign a hof with that pick.

yeah, what that little f***er said....lol. who loves ya roman???.. ... not only can i beat on him nightly but i can kick ldf's butt too..lol.. gotta love it here.......where else can ya dish out all this abuse and still be loved so greatly......lmao............. of course JAS AND MARIO and everyone else do a fantastic job keeping us in line and always talking up a storm... they keep us informed and they dont make us use the soap or send us to the corner when we swear.....lol......keep up the good work guys you make it a fun place to be.............. Hey!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You never win! Im always the board war champ! Not you!

can i at least have a smoke for the screwing i got?

if he is available, how much do you think it would cost to get him.......................... but it might be worth it. ummm but i still would like to get tejas(sp) from oak.

where is your sense of humor, we got screwed big time. we should enjoy the long lingering feeling for as long as we can. beside there are still some who still thnk that we didn't get screwed.

ok, i will go for that, but i am still not too sure.

i hate to agree with you, i know he is trying to put forth info and i am just as guilty, but i wish if the sox are involve or anything, he should say so if not, don't. something like should the sox pursue vlad?

WHEN DOES THE SEASON START!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thank you, thank you. i accept all the acknowledgement that i soooo richly deserves.

So why can't people understand this about Carlos, the stupidass? great point.

kill-joy
