I'm telling you, KW just needs to hang up the phone with Washington. It's not worth going after Dunn, especially if he's going to be unhappy.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 04:06 PM) The price tag was apparently Quentin, Beckham +prospect. haha, is Strasburg included?

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 03:19 PM) Clemens, Pettite, Oswalt was supposed to take us down at one point. BACKE!

QUOTE (DBAHO @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 04:20 PM) How are Dumars and Kahn idiots? Granted Dumars hasn't had a couple of good seasons, but he built Detroit into a NBA Championship team. In a couple of seasons, Kahn's loaded up the Wolves with quite a few good young assets to say the least. What else could he have done to make Minny any better? Not drafted two points guard

Using any form of statistics to judge how good the Heat could be is silly, as there's no way to know how James/Wade playing together will impact their performance.

J4L, the mere fact we can even worry about this stuff right now is good enough for me. If we get to the playoffs, then great! Who knows, maybe the Tank will be our secret weapon against LHP.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 03:12 PM) I'd agree with a healthy Peavy. too bad we can't see Peavy vs Vazquez in the postseason...a battle of the worst postseason reputations.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 04:06 PM) I was looking towards the playoffs. Hughes and Javy won't sniff the playoff rotation with those first 4 in place. Hughes>>>>>Burnett

Javy's going to get traded for someone soon

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 02:44 PM) Just woke up 15 minutes ago and realized what happened last night. It really is true that certain events don't hit you at first. A little time has to go by. I can't believe the Heat are about to 6-peat. There's not a chance in hell that happens.

QUOTE (docsox24 @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 03:44 PM) Wow I would have expected the price to be higher. I have a friend who is a big yankee fan and he keeps telling me how hard it is to be a yankee fan because they have such high expectations. I always want to punch him. It's Montero and a few more players. Montero's struggled this year, but he's still a top-notch prospect. Mariners were desperate to acquire a young catcher...so that's why it's great the Yankees got involved cause Lee would have been going to Minnesota instead.

From all accounts, no chance Dunn signs an extension if he's going to end up being a DH. If you sign him, it's probably goodbye to Paul Konerko, which means you have to keep Viciedo. We just don't have the bullets to acquire a top guy right now.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 06:53 AM) Ok, but if you sign him and give him significant minutes, don't complain about the lack of defense. Everyone wants to point out flaws on all the available names, but everyone seems to gush about Morrow as if he is a complete player. You also have to realize that he played for a team that absolutely doesn't stress defense. He played his role to perfection. I'm not saying he'd be a defensive stopper by any means.

QUOTE (IamtheHBOMB @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 06:48 AM) Ever since fathom mentioned Morrow, I've been intrigued by him. He seems like he would be a good fit with Rose. Rose penetrates, kicks it out to Morrow for a three. Morrow would be the best pure shooter the Bulls have had in two decades (besides Steve Kerr, but Morrow is way more of a complete offensive player)

Miller signs with Heat

So the reason the ad in the Miami Herald was pulled was cause it was going to just be Bosh and Wade, but they pulled it to include James, and it will be in the paper on Saturday.

I hope to have an update on Grimes tomorrow from my GT person

You know which GM would love to have 9 open roster spots to fill with old guys who he could offer the minimum to? Our very own KW!

What sucks for Cleveland is that they're probably a little happier now due to the Gilbert letter, but once they wake up tomorrow, they're going to have to face the LeBracalypse that just happened to their city. Don't worry Cleveland, you can have "Kerry Wood simulation inning towel" giveaways

I wonder if the US Magazine story was true about the cabanas? Maybe Dan Gilbert will crash that party.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 04:09 AM) I like Bosh... he's done NOTHING wrong. Bosh is a total piece of s***. I've said a few times how hated he is by people at Ga Tech who dealt with him. He's always been so worried about his perception.

Rick Fox was on Larry King Live talking about LeBron. Shouldn't we be asking Rick Fox about dating Eliza Dushku?

QUOTE (RME JICO @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 04:08 AM) I hope he has his house for sale before they burn that down too. Holy crap are Cleveland fans going off. Extra police already at his house (and they are not looking for Delonte). Tonight, we're all Cleveland fans

Man, Rafael Furcal is some kind of hot right now...and I don't mean that in the Ricky Martin way.

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 04:03 AM) I agree, it was a real fun thread with a lot of great back and forth I've loved that I could go to another site, and when I refresh, there's 10 new posts.
