QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Jul 31, 2005 -> 11:20 AM) Buster Olney was just on ESPNEWS. A couple days ago, he said the Sox would either make a big splash or they wouldn't make a trade at all. He just said now that he believes KW will make a move before the day is done. So, maybe he knows something? Yeah, the Geoff Blum deal. Duh!

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 31, 2005 -> 11:18 AM) :headshake Is it a law that I have to hate Willie and everything about him? I've met him before and he was pretty cool with me. I wish him the best of luck. It's not like I said we should start him at 2B for the next 20 years.

I like Willie.

Now I can get that Geoff Blum Sox jersey I've always wanted. Start printing out those World Series tickets.

How many times has it been posted by this guy that he doesn't want to trade BMac? We know already. You've made several threads on it. As long as KW isn't listening to you, I'm happy. And stop making the same recycled threads. You have to trade something, to get something.

Wow, I never thought I would say I would rather have Mackowiak.

You were wrong about one part. Kenny won't be making any moves.

I don't remember him being a prick with the Twins. They said he could sometimes get on your nerves, but he never really was a problem in Minny. They just got rid of him because they had Mauer. The Giants he was a total prick I guess you could say. Don't matter about then though. All that matters is now and he's been great.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jul 30, 2005 -> 11:42 PM) http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/3840328 No deal. Which is what I just said.

QUOTE(dmbjeff @ Jul 30, 2005 -> 11:40 PM) what the hell would we give the red sox? No, we would be just stealing a major component of the Manny 3 way trade that now is dead.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 30, 2005 -> 11:18 PM) To late. I just emailed em. Look for the deal to be completed by noon tomorrow. Great, so when I could I order my Ken Griffey Jr. Red Sox jersey?

I don't think we make any deals.

I don't see us trading for anyone. Not even Mackowiak. I definately don't see this team doing anything major. Jayson Stark said that we made one last huge push for Schmidt, but the Giants don't want to trade him. Eh well.

Watch it be A-Row.

Is he at least much better than Ozuna at 3B? If he's not, then the move really doesn't make sense.

It's obvious a trade is in the works. That's why Jenks left. Jenks for Ken Griffey Jr. I knew Kenny wouldn't let me down

I love the Spyderman!!!!!

Rob Mackowiak is meh. I don't see him helping us. Yes, I checked his stats. Maybe a decent bench bat, but nothing Gload can't do. I know tons of people will like if this move is made because he's from Chicago and lots of guys are high on Mackowiak around here.

QUOTE(beck72 @ Jul 30, 2005 -> 10:07 AM) The article said Eddie had no trade protection to the Yanks, Red Sox and Orioles. Haha, I read. I guess he doesn't like the AL East or at least the top 3 teams in it.

Ozzie micromanages.

I agree. Past 2 games, he's pitched great. Too bad he didn't get the win against the BoSox, but still. Great the past 2 starts. Maybe it has something to do with him pitching against the AL East. Who knows?

QUOTE(TheBlackSox8 @ Jul 30, 2005 -> 09:40 AM) none fit what we're looking for. Hitter, starting pitcher, relief pitcher?? I'm sure there are several of those players on the market.

QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ Jul 30, 2005 -> 09:30 AM) news flash: the white sox are interested in every MLB player that isn't a white sox. What's the over under and them getting any of these players? I honestly think we get none.

Well then I was watching a re-run of SportsCenter because that's what they were showing with Buster Olney.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Jul 30, 2005 -> 09:04 AM) Anyone think the "roadblock" might be KW offering TB more for Huff? Nope, it's been said the roadblock is the Red Sox simply wanting more when they were ready to complete the deal.
