  1. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 07:05 PM) Why would they tell anyone if they were? How would it be to their advantage competitively? Reporters would discover this
  2. QUOTE (T R U @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 06:01 PM) Do you think its possible that KW really wanted Dunn and the Nationals wouldn't budge so he acquired their main target out of spite? no
  3. The Sox are not getting money back for Peavy's insurance or from last year's trade!!
  4. QUOTE (AWhiteSoxinNJ @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 05:50 PM) Insurance is paying Peavy's remaining salary this season. We have money to spend. Insurance doesn't pay anything this season.
  5. If Jackson stays with the Sox, I'm totally calling him the EJaxulator.
  6. QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 06:38 PM) This board is full of hypocrites. Everybody (including me) wanted Javy Vazquez decapitated two years ago. Now we get his clone and it's a great move. I always thought Peavy was the white Javy Vazquez.
  7. KW better had assurances that the Nats would make a trade of Jackson and someone else for Dunn. We cannot have another Bulls/WWW situation on our hands.
  8. QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 06:21 PM) I would have to think if the Sox get Dunn, they have to be dealing Jackson to get him.. so who is the 5th starter then? Harrell/Torres
  9. QUOTE (SouthsideDon48 @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 06:20 PM) Honestly, I think Oswalt is overrated and over the hill. I prefer Jackson over Oswalt. In fact: Oswalt I'm THRILLED the Sox got Jackson, he's been one of my favorite MLB pitchers since his days with Tampa. Congrats, you might be the first person to prefer Jackson and/or Hudson over the best pitcher in the NL from the last decade.
  10. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 05:10 PM) The funny thing is that many of the same people who worried about the games that Jenks blew, won't see the immediate value that a Jackson would win more games than Hudson in the short term. Problem is Jackson's not a clear upgrade. If it was Oswalt, then I'd agree with you.
  11. QUOTE (RudyLawRules @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 05:06 PM) Exactly. Have faith in KW...people need to chill. Sorry, but we heard this same thing during offseason relating to DH position. Also, KW's not exactly been on a role the last two years with his trades. Pretty awful if you evaluate all of them (Swisher, Vazquez, Peavy, Pena, Pierre, Teahen)
  12. QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 05:05 PM) But really, it's just flipping a guy who hasn't gotten it done yet in the MLB and a prospect for a guy who has proved he can get it done even though it was last year. I think they're going to keep Jackson. Welcome to the Sox, E-Jax. Same guy who was awful in 2nd half of the season last year. Really, he's like a 3 month wonder.
  13. It's like the AL Central teams are competing for who can make a more awful trade.
  14. QUOTE (daa84 @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 05:57 PM) holmberg and hudson for jackson...wow thats alot wow, that's f***ing awful...throw in someone like Viciedo and Danks, and you could have gotten Haren.
  15. Please flip him!! If not, makes me dread the Peavy injury even more.
  16. Hope you all saw Harrell is starting for Sox tonight.
  17. QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 03:56 PM) If this Jackson-Hudson deal actually goes through, we better still get a bat. I'll be pissed as f***ing hell if Kotsay is still our DH come Sunday. Yep, if it's just Hudson and another prospect for Jackson, and then nothing else happens...that would be just a horrible deal.
  18. QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 03:55 PM) OK, I'm going to rip off a poster from the "catch-all" thread since it might be what stalled the Jackson/Hudson deal... Nightengale is reporting KW is going after Brett Myers, maybe he can get Berkman/Myers without Hudson Um, not a chance in hell he gets both without giving up Hudson. For those two, I'd gladly get rid of Hudson, Danks2, Morel, and someone else.
  19. QUOTE (docsox24 @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 04:38 PM) hes not and at 8.3M he is insanely overpaid I dont think kenny is this dumb doc, hearing anything?
  20. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 04:33 PM) Really, no he can't. I agree, but KW might not.
  21. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 04:31 PM) That might be the first thing written in this thread that makes enough sense to me to part with Hudson. Still leaves us screwed next year though. People are forgetting that Chris Sale is around and easily could be in majors for opening day, 2011.
  22. How about Westbrook and Choo in a mega deal?
  23. I keep hoping to refresh soxtalk's main page and see a different name than Edwin Jackson.
  24. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 03:11 PM) That post was talking about Torres. Ah, I see
  25. QUOTE (kane0730 @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 03:10 PM) No doubt. Makes you wonder why they even pitched him last night. Why wouldn't they have pushed him back? They had to have known Hudson might be moving. They didn't pitch him tonight...see my earlier post about how he warmed up, and then mysteriously sat down.
