No offence, but no it isn't. Not gonna happen.

Why would we ever trade for Sweeney? We have a 1st baseman already and we have a DH coming back. Also, Sweeney is a horrible defensive 1st baseman and he has a huge contract. We won't be going after Sweeney, I can almost guarantee you that.

That's pitiful.

:puke :puke :puke

Ahhh, I see. Well, the Giants just love older players so this should come as no surprise.

Upset about a Cubs trade? Why?

LaTroy still has a decent ERA. He just can't close games. I still think he's a headcase though. Vizcaino's ERA is horrendous. Shingo's ERA is getting better. I still think LaTroy has more trade value than both Vicaino and Shingo because he had a history of being consistently good before this season.

I agree with you there. If Maddux hits 400+ IP from last season and this season combined, they will owe him $9 million next season. Maddux is a good pitcher but he isn't worth $9 million at this point in his career.

I guess Williams' father died in Spring Training. Maybe that's the cause of his troubles.

Ouch... Jerome Williams [2005 stats with the Fresno Grizzlies (Giants' AAA)] 6 starts 1-4 record 9.39 ERA 30.2 IP 47 H 32 ER 17 BB 15 SO

"Cubs send Hawkins to SF for Williams Chicago also receives pitcher Aardsma" http://chicago.cubs.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/new...t=.jsp&c_id=mlb

I think this obviously signals that Prior is out for the season. They would't have acquired a starter with MLB experience like Jerome Williams if he wasn't.

Take it easy, Anthrax.

David Aardsma was probably the key guy in the trade. He was lighting it up in the minors. Jerome Williams was sucking it up in the minors.

Agreed, he is a mental case now. I also think he will suck in San Francisco.

LOL. You're right about that.

Yep, just heard. My Flubs buddy will be happy. That is a pretty good trade for them. LaChoke sucks ass.

I'm no fan of Willie but Timo has been absolutely worthless this season. I can't believe he's getting paid a cool million to be Armando Rios Part 2.

Well, I figure Kevin Walker will be dumped for El Duque, although it will suck to lose Walker's awesome 0.00 ERA. I just hope Timo will be the one dumped for Frank. It would make me feel great to see the worst hitter on our team being jettisoned and replaced with the best hitter in Sox history. That would definately be addition by subtraction AND addition.

Someone needs to use fathom's phrase and bring "OMIT TIMO!" signs to the next homestand. Maybe Kenny will get the point and cut his worthless hide once Frank is healthy.

Once we get Gload back, if Ozzie continues to use Timo over Gload I will puke. I'd rather see Gload playing CF than OMIT TIMO.

Preston Wilson = Jermaine Dye with more speed and the ability to play CF.

Timo was getting WAAAY too much playing time as it is. No bat, crappy base-running, and shoddy defense -- he has more than earned his release.

Once Choad is back it's time to play him at 1st base and DH Konerko, at least until Frank is back.
