I'm not backing it or complaining about it yet, I'm waiting to see what kenny does with the money. If he doesn't get another starter then this deal does suck, I will however say that if Pods returns back to his 03 form then yes the sox are better off with Pods and Vizcaino over caballo.
I think what you saw from carlos is what he is. He's a damn good player, however I'm not sure if he's going to be a superstar as you suggest, jmo but I definitely understand where you're coming from.
I love Ross and I think he can start but it looks like he'll be coming off the bench. We're going to have some good depth on the bench and ross can and probably will provide the solid left handed bat off the bench.
Maybe, but we have the money to overpay for him now. All we need is a starting pitcher and the offseason is a complete success, imo. Overpay for him if you have to but we have to land a starter no matter what.
That lineup doesn't lack power at all. It's definitely not going to be as powerful as in years past but thank god for that, I'm tired of living and dying by the long ball. I sure as hell hope we sign either Clement or Perez. That plus adding a middle infielder that could platoon with willie(which could be ginter if he's the ptbnl) I'd be very happy with this trade and absolutely thrilled with this offseason. It's very important that a team that can't compete with the big boys salary wise put together a solid bullpen. Right now our bullpen is absolutely awesome, add either Clement or Perez and our pitching staff would be absolutely stacked, with more speed in the lineup and more balance. I think and I hope there will be a starting pitcher coming the sox way very soon.
No, get a starting pitcher. This is how I see it Lee>>>>>>>>>Pods and Ginter however Perez, pods, and ginter >>>>> Lee, jmo. Kenny has to have something else going on, I sure f***in hope so.
f***!!!!!!!!!!! As of right now this is such a dumb f***in trade, however kenny has to have something else up his sleeve to add another pitcher, if not this trade f***in blows.
Someone want to fill me in here?? What's going on, is this supposed trade dead now?? and what is this supposed trade?? Sorry, I really don't have time to read though all 17 pages right now, gotta get to work soon.
:puke This would be a flat out awful trade and I'm in the minority here and actually like Pods. The only way the sox should be talking with the brewers about carlos is if sheet is available. Most likely Ben won't be availabe so kenny should just move on to a different team.
