Are Kip Wells or Josh Fogg available? :fthecubs

That IS interesting! Being that Tellem represents Nomar and Big Hurt, maybe he'll push for Thomas to be traded to LA, so that his clients are together.

So lets keep Nomar, and sign Ponson, and we don't need Perez, we could trade Wright or Rauch for Williamson, and I would be happy with that. :fthecubs

Thats for sure, if we got Nomar he would be buried in the Sports section, behind the Cubs getting Michael Barrett. :fthecubs

Look for the Sox to go after Juan Gonzalez to replace Magglio in RF!

Nomar has made 45 errors over the past 2 seasons!

Ichiro and Nomar more or less equal each other out, if Danny Wright is not enough, then send Valentine or Konerko. :fthecubs

:fthecubs The Seattle trade works for me, but how bout, Danny Wright and Nomar for Ichiro and Garcia?

Its pretty sad that we could of got Everett for $7M U.S. for two years and we wouldn't have had to trade any prospects for him, now that he is in Montreal. Maybe we could get Juan Gonzalez for the same price? :fthecubs

BUT I ALSO AGREE, GARCIAPARRA WOULD BE AN INSTANT FAN FAVORITE, AND WE WOULDN'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT VALENTINES DEFENSE AND LACK OF AVERAGE. BUT IF HE IS NOT GOING TO SIGN AN EXTENSION, THEN EITHER TRADE HIM TO LA, OR JUST DEAL WITH LA ONLY, AND THEN DO THE MINOR TRADE FOR WILLIAMSON, AND TRADE VALENTIN TO SEATTLE WHO NEEDS A SHORTSTOP BECAUSE OMAR FAILED HIS PHYSICAL. AND THEN KOCH TO THE METS FOR ANYONE, MAYBE EVEN TO GET ROYCE RING BACK. :fthecubs

WE SHOULD JUST TRADE RAUCH OR WRIGHT, HOPEFULLY WRIGHT TO GET WILLIAMSON, AND THEN SIGN PONSON, AND THEN WE DON'T HAVE TO f*** WITH EVANS AT ALL. :fthecubs

LETS NOT FORGET THAT KENNY (NOT THE ONE FROM SOUTH PARK) HAS ALSO BEEN TALKING TO THE AGENT FOR JUAN GONZALEZ, WHO COULD ALSO HELP TO REPLACE SOME RUN PRODUCTION IN CASE WE LOSE MAGS. :fthecubs

I agree! I don't have a problem with that, and if you saw my post from yesterday, where I said the Sox should "rebuild", you'd see where I'm coming from. However, I am insulted as a Sox fan when JR and KW imply that it's the Sox fans' fault that they can't be more active in the free agent market. Total BS!

Thanks!

Guys! You act as if these players' salaries are coming out of your pockets...they're NOT! Reinsdorf can afford to sign ANY free agents, he just doesn't want to spend money! Stop playing into this "fiscal responsibilty" bulls***; what about being responsible/accountable to your fans???

Would it be possible for the people who run this (excellant) website to adjust the "clocks", so we knw what times things are being posted? It looks like your clocks are 6 hours fast!

Uribe and Grilli...hmmmm...when do playoff tickets go on sale?

Reggie Sanders signed with the Cardinals!!! See SPORTSCENTER! :fthecubs

Ozzie was a bad, but typical Reinsdorf hire. He has never (with the exception of Scott Skiles) hired a coach/manager with professional coaching/managing experience. Two reasons for this are, 1) He doesn't want to have to pay for experienced "leadership"; and 2) He wants "puppets" running his teams. (That's why he NEVER lets them pick their own coaching staffs!) Cito Gaston would have never stood for JR's bulls***, that's why he's not managing here!

Who cares? We got Grilli!!! Woohoo!!!

Steff...do you (really) know Sidney Ponson?

KW is quite the "wheeler-dealer", huh?

Hey Slick03...if you get the playoff tix, I'll buy all your beers!!!

Right on, DBAHO! Right on!

You're damned right, MaggsMaggs!
