QUOTE(Pierzynski 12 @ Nov 23, 2005 -> 02:33 PM) Brian Anderson as good as Rowand.We have to wait and see if he is. Rowand was expendable and with the seemingly high upside that Anderson has, this is a great trade. In the long run BA could very well turn out to be better than Rowand, I don't necessarily buy into this but it certainly makes this trade worth the risk.

QUOTE(Pierzynski 12 @ Nov 23, 2005 -> 02:31 PM) Sorry but if KW trades Rowand then fine go ahead.You better find someone as good as Rowand. Many seem to think that Brian Anderson is better than Rowand. So if that is the case, this is a great trade.

QUOTE(Pierzynski 12 @ Nov 23, 2005 -> 02:30 PM) Injury=Thome He's had one injury plagued year. That's a pathetic arguement.

QUOTE(Pierzynski 12 @ Nov 23, 2005 -> 02:28 PM) Yea when he's going to make a trade like this. At this point I don't like this trade but I wouldn't be saying stupid s*** like that, it makes you look incredibly dumb.

QUOTE(Pierzynski 12 @ Nov 23, 2005 -> 02:26 PM) Way to go KW.If this is happening then f*** you!!!Trading Rowand is bad. That's pretty unnecessary.

QUOTE(knightni @ Nov 23, 2005 -> 02:26 PM) I hope it's a midrange P like Honel or Tracey. I'd even settle for it if it was OF like Owens. Honel has negative value at this point.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Nov 23, 2005 -> 02:25 PM) I wonder who the prospect is. A Chris Young? If it is, then this is one of the worst trades I've ever experienced.

QUOTE(EvilJester99 @ Nov 23, 2005 -> 02:24 PM) I bet Pierre won't be far behind...maybe not but I can't see them totally satisfied with BA in CF for next season... That would suck.

The phils will be eating half of Thome's contract per ESPN 1000

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Nov 23, 2005 -> 02:18 PM) Just because I'm curious, is your primary reason for hating it the presence A-Row had on the team? Or his stats? Or one particular aspect of his game? Just curious what people would most miss. For me, the biggest loss would be his overall presence on the team - he represents hustle, and he was a big part of the heart and soul of this club, it seemed. Very tough to replace that. Bittersweet for me. I like Aaron Rowand the person and the player. I am not sold on BA like the rest of you. But mainly I'm just gonna miss Rowand the person, the Bears fan, the stooge.

ESPN 1000 said that the trade is close to being done.

I'm going to say this now. I hate this f***ing trade.

this f***ing sucks. seriously

f***

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Nov 22, 2005 -> 11:24 PM) You play Socom? Online? My brother -- he's at Loyola now -- actually took my PS2 so he could have it in his apartment. Of course, this was about six months ago, when I didn't even know there was going to be a Socom 3. Needless to say, I ended up purchasing another PS2 just so I could play Socom. I love that game -- probably my favorite online game ever. I was addicted to SOCOM II Online for a few months where I would spend all of my free time doing nothing but playing Desert Glory online for hours on end. I got great with the M87ELR and the M4A1 SD (also the silenced sub-machine gun, forgot the name). Then like most things I just quit cold turkey. My clan was f***ing pissed when one day I just stopped playing altogether but it was for the best. Now with SOCOM III comming out I'm afraid my obsession could come back if they have Desert Glory or Fish Hook on the game, though my current schedule may not allow for such an obsession to take hold.

QUOTE(Jeckle2000 @ Nov 23, 2005 -> 01:21 AM) It's irresponsible to not give Vegas a team... It's obvious the AL west desperately needs a new team... (a 4 team division, what a joke)... and it wouldn't hurt for attendance... If they moved the Marlins to the AL West to give that division 5 teams, wouldn't the NL East then have 4 teams? Then the "joke" as you call it would just switch leagues and coasts.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Nov 23, 2005 -> 10:08 AM) Plus with where the Sox depth is in their system, he might be the most easily "replaceable" The ease of replacing him is what makes him so expendable.

QUOTE(sayitaintso @ Nov 22, 2005 -> 09:58 PM) I'm not saying that i would overpay for him, but if the price was right . . . . . . which it's not . . .

Sean and Christian are gay!!!111

QUOTE(Soxman72 @ Nov 22, 2005 -> 01:00 PM) Florida has a big hole at third base now and I do not believe they would move Cabrera to third. The Marlins are very serious about moving Cabrera to 3B, it's his natural position and was considered a damn good defensive 3B while playing in the minors.

Rowand currently has the most value of any expendable player on the roster. He is most likely on the block.

QUOTE(Irishsox1 @ Nov 22, 2005 -> 12:06 AM) Since ND is good again, does that mean your "hating" is going to pick back up? There could be some medicine that could help you with that. And why is it that anytime ND is mentioned, a bunch of posters have to point out how much they "hate" ND? Yea, yea...you hate ND...got it. You don't need to post it every time. Move on! Also, there is a great Cubs/Bartman refrence in the new Family Guy/Stewie Griffin DVD. Oh, no, did I just start a "I hate Family Guy" thing now? Perhaps you should stick to WSI?

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Nov 22, 2005 -> 12:24 AM) He played 5 games at 2nd last year. 14 games in '04 and 10 in '03.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Nov 21, 2005 -> 11:39 PM) A Bears win or Packers loss makes that impossible now. You sure know how to put a smile on my face.
