Hickory should be thrilled to hear that.

Wow.. wonder how much money is being exchanged here. Dodgers still need to move another outfielder too.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 10, 2014 -> 04:35 PM) Getting a potential starting catcher for 50k in a rebuilding year is never a mistake. Especially one with his tools.

Rodon is the only prospect we have that is close to/as good as Bryant or Russell so.. yea probably not happening.

I love Sanchez so I hope he impresses. I'm a Micah fan too though, but I've like Sanchez since I watched him in the futures game couple years back.

Wasn't it bucket who said the sox were eying Ackley and Butler at one point?

Hopefully. I got the car already warmed up to drive Dayan to the airport. Eminor3rd has shotgun. (yea we never liked him as a player)

Peavy is obviously next in their rotation right?

That's a good get for the Cubs sadly.

Haha I so called Ravelo too. Awesome deal.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Dec 9, 2014 -> 10:13 AM) Cooper was on the SCORE and he was pretty amped up. He got word at 3 AM. He's always been a fan of Samardzija. I think he was quoted as saying his stuff "always moves." He is going to enjoy working with him me thinks.

Also, I wonder if Shark is gonna tell LaRoche about that "ego" story at Wrigley.

Trayce Thompson is still bring floated around as third piece. Won't know till a few hours though.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Dec 9, 2014 -> 12:40 AM) Jones isn't supposed to be back until August And he won't be nearly the same yet after comming back. 2016 is when he'll probably be Nate again.

Alright Jerry. You feel like opening up your wallet? I dare you to open up to sign Scherzer now.

QUOTE (dasox24 @ Dec 9, 2014 -> 12:21 AM) This has been an awesome day for the baseball fan in me. It started out with me and Ken Griffey Jr (my favorite player, other than Frank Thomas, as a kid) having a short conversation on an airplane this morning. And ends with the Sox picking up major needs in Robertson and (likely) Samardzija. Awesome. I've said it many times here. Frank was the reason I became a sox fan. Griffey Jr. was the reason I played baseball (CF, left handed, etc.) I'm super jealous of you right now.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Dec 9, 2014 -> 12:16 AM) We traded you. We get to keep the wife and kids. Nah he can keep the kids. We will keep the wife though.

Danish was not involved just as I said!! I actually meant to post Trayce's name was rumored for 10 minutes prior.

I'm assuming we had to outbid the Yankees for his services.

46 million? Ew.. but it's a need.

I must admit I haven't even processed the 10 million annually he's going to get. I just saw his name and became happy.

Danish is awesome.

We now have our closer boys and girls!

Just got the link on my phone as well. 4 year deal.
