Wylie had some stuff pre-surgery a few years ago, but right now he isn't much of a prospect. Ginter has much better stuff and I still believe Ginter becomes a sucessful reliever at some point, the question is with the Sox or with another team. As far as Rauch he's got a great curve and the question is whether he can get his slider to the point it was before the surgery, if he can do that and mix in his improving changeup and fastball, which would then be sneaky quick, then he will be sucessful. If he can't, then he'll be a mediocre player but still a big leaguer, most likely with another organization. This is definately his last year in the minors with the Sox. The Sox can't call him up unless they think he's gonna stick cause if I recall he's out of options.

If its a deal that could make this team better then I have no problem trading Maggs. For example Soriano and Johnson would be unbelievable (Not saying it will happen). But a deal like that is not only smart financially, but to me smart talent wise. Soriano and Maggs are similar players production wise and I think Soriano has a higher ceiling but he does have his flaws too and well I love Nick Johnson.

Cameron would be an excellent pickup. Cruz would be fine too at the right price, but i'd really like to get Cameron back. He's one of the very best in centerfield. I think in a smaller stadium like the Cell (Well smaller then Safeco) you'd see him make quite a few "Hunteresque" catches.

Now Escobar is a guy I'd really like to get. Considering what Ponson wants, I like Escobar in a similar fashion and he really came into a zone when he became a full time starter last season. Would be a great pickup, depending on what he's asking. I think the Sox are gonna add two quality starters and will be moving payroll by moving Koch, Konerko and either Lee or Ordonez.

Schilling wanted a 3 yr deal if he were to accept the trade or thats what Gammons reported about two days ago...but he will accept a deal if thats the case.

Haven't heard anything about Piazza. Sox are interested in Odalis Perez, Freddy Garcia and there may be some interest in Soriano/Johnson but most of that has been speculation. Also Koch has been rumored to be going to the Mets for Roger Cedeno. Haven't heard anything abuot something going down immediately, but if it does, my guess is Koch is the first to go.

Hey Alex...if you can I don't know how you added the submit type stuff in the fast reply, but we no longer need it there because that issue was fixed with the newer upgrade I just ran. Also, somehow we have to remove the last click hack cause its now on the board as is...that or its just a bug, haven't figured that out yet. So now it comes up double in those areas as well (If that makes any sense). Gracious
-
Also the board should really speed up once each individual poster is around for a few minutes cause there are some new images that have to cache, but once that happens it will really be flying. It just kicked in for me and its great

Thats tight begood

Its back up
-
Happy Birthday The board made its way back up just for you
-
Don't worry...I think everything has been fixed and should be in good shape. During xmas break I will have a backup board established on another server and the board will be moving, most likely during Thanksgiving break to a new server. Hopefully sometime soon I can find a real programmer to help out
