i thought the deal went through but it didnt right?

QUOTE (bkmoney @ Dec 10, 2008 -> 11:52 PM) Putz's agent : "He's one of the top five or 10 closers in the game," Landis said. "No, he would not want to be a set-up man." this should be interesting. This trade is really hard to figure out just because there are so many players in it he wont be a setup man? well they have krod....so how does it make sense for the mets?

QUOTE (bschmaranz @ Dec 4, 2008 -> 11:19 AM) Uh oh, we're in trouble! lol their pitching problems have been solved!

QUOTE (Lemon_44 @ Dec 3, 2008 -> 08:00 PM) Here's what i can see happening. I think Broadway gets dealt for Tavares. I wouldn't be surprised if that hasn't already been agreed on. I think Dye gets moved to the Reds. If money is the issue in this trade maybe we send Dye,either BA or Owens,and maybe Lillibridge to the Reds for Bailey and either Arroyo or Harang.That would even the money out a little bit. Then the Sox sign Dunn in free agency. That would give us a team looking like: SP-Buehrle, Floyd,Danks, Harang, and Bailey/Poreda/Marquez/Richard bullpen:Thornton,Linebrink,loser of the 5th spot,Russel,Dotel, Jenks Lineup: CF-Tavares 2b-Getz RF-Quentin LF-Dunn DH-Thome 1B-Konerko SS-Alexei C-AJ 3B-Fields bench players: Betemit, Nix,backup C, Owens/BA, Wise yuck, i hope that wont be our team, mediocore at best

good, im glad it wasnt morneau, he had a great year but he wasnt the mvp. quentin would have won for sure too bad

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Nov 13, 2008 -> 05:55 PM) AS of now, next year is looking like C AJ 1b Konerko 2B Getz/NIX 3B Fields/Betemit SS Missle Rf Dye Cf Anderson Lf Q DH Thome thank god for that . i would love to be able to get freddy and dejesus

no. hes guna want years and probly around 10mil

QUOTE (fathom @ Nov 13, 2008 -> 04:30 PM) Disagree, they should use every resource possible to acquire Roberts. Dunn would kill that team defensively. yup and they say its really hard to play rf in wrigley. i remembered him looking horrible in lf against the cubs. thatd be funny lol

and he missed a month, what could have been....lol

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Nov 13, 2008 -> 03:43 PM) It definitely gives us some options. we just have to wait and see what happens. i think this is just the begining of a lot of moves to come.

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Nov 13, 2008 -> 03:30 PM) I'm not sure what to think. Swisher was bad but he looked like PK's replacement at 1B. However, they still may trade PK, stick Viciedo at 3B if they get him, then put Betemit at 1B. However, what do we do in CF now? I figured we'd be getting Melky in return when I heard we dealt Nick to New York. How is Wilson's defense? his natural position is ss so he cant be that bad

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Nov 13, 2008 -> 03:13 PM) Very interesting. that it says 1b? i was at cbssportsline and they had him as a 1b with the yankees. so it just says that bcuz thats what he was under the yankees not bcuz thats what he'll be with us

QUOTE (DukeNukeEm @ Nov 13, 2008 -> 03:09 PM) Marquez will never pitch for the White Sox, but that doesnt mattter. This deal is about freeing up money for something bigger and we picked up a pretty decent bench player in the process who might do really well at US Cellular. If we sign Viciedo or acquire Beltran with this money were saving this Swisher deal looks pretty damn good. beltran? why would the mets trade him?

Ken Rosenthal says the Yankees also get pitcher Kanekoa Texeira from Chicago

QUOTE (DBAHO @ Nov 13, 2008 -> 02:48 PM) There'll be more to this surely. You don't give up on a guy for just 1 minor league player. And I don't really want Melky, he's regressed offensively. My guess is there's more young pitching to be included in the deal. no way thats all we get for swish

QUOTE (G&T @ Nov 13, 2008 -> 02:47 PM) The link is in the top right corner now. i couldnt find it, thank you

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Nov 13, 2008 -> 02:44 PM) There must be more moves in the works. You don't just give away a guy like Swisher without other stuff in the works. yea. bcuz thats what we did, gave him away. dumped salary i guess lol

cant listen live to the score through their website anymore?

QUOTE (RudyLawRules @ Nov 13, 2008 -> 02:38 PM) http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=3700869 wow. im really happy hes gone but what exactly did we get?lol

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Nov 13, 2008 -> 01:30 AM) Whoa, Whoa, Whoa, so you're saying the Cubs aren't going to get Peavy for Marshall, Pie, and Cedeno? WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT????? my thoughts eaxclty lol what a bunch of garbage. they want peavy for that? i dont think i would even take that for dye lol

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Nov 13, 2008 -> 10:59 AM) I, too, would be a huge fan of bringing Sweaty Freddy back. That final game against the Sox was quite impressive, and I think he could definitely be an above average 5th starter. Plus, I could dust off the Garcia jersey shirt! Though his #34 belongs to Floyd now. as we saw, freddy does have something left. im sure that if he is healthy and can be good, we'll resign him. ozzie would know how healthy he is. bartolo? i dont think so QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Nov 13, 2008 -> 09:56 AM) Don't the Tigers have control of Garcia for next year? I could swear the contract he signed with them last year was for two years. minor league contract http://www.mlive.com/tigers/index.ssf/2008...he_can_con.html

i would take freddy in a second, im surprised it said 7 mil though.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Nov 11, 2008 -> 07:13 PM) Because they would ask for more than Fields...probably Fields AND Poreda, in order for this deal to go down. no ,way would i trade poreda for him. plus thered be no chance of resigning him/. boras is his agent i think. and i think the sox are going to get outbit for viciendo

QUOTE (Kenny Hates Prospects @ Nov 11, 2008 -> 09:50 AM) D'oh My post was three later. I guess that's what happens when you don't read the whole thread. Now let's see if it goes down. I feel a trade happens probably by Thursday, Saturday at the latest. it was mentioned how the rockies got street bcuz theyre going to lose fuentes. so wouldnt they need yet again another pitcher to fill in the void left by them?
