QUOTE(korntownballa @ Jul 29, 2006 -> 11:57 PM) I heard rumor about the Red Sox geting Jake Peavy and Scott Linebrink for only Willi Mo Pena Juilan Tavarez and Cash in a 3 team deal. So I was wondering why not we offer the Padres B-McC and Fields for those 2? I think that is a LOT better htan what the Red Sox offeredt them. Thoughts? mccarthy aint moving no where

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 29, 2006 -> 11:33 PM) It's believed to be Mark Buehrle, now. Indeed, buster just said on bbtn that the red sox offered crisp for buehrle and sox said HECK NO... well ok they said no, i added the rest

QUOTE(dyenamite23 @ Jul 26, 2006 -> 10:43 PM) i was just reading si and saw something about the sox maybe getting rowand back 4 vazquez this works we can get bmac into the rotation say wha??? yer nutz

.... so if KDub told Stark that he listens to anything, then how could he say without a doubt that he is not trading any body at the major league level????

QUOTE(ChiSox9 @ Jul 26, 2006 -> 10:46 AM) He was a third baseman in minor league ball. Played 5 games for the Sox at 1st in 1999 and was a normal outfielder ever since. He has 6 years of OF service under his belt whereas Soriano was just moved to LF this season. I think if a team is looking to get a solid LF with proven experience then CLee would be the way to go. Not saying that I want the Sox to get him, but be it that he is the solid OF, in turn i believe he would decrease SOriano's trade value. not picking on you, specifically, but there is not ONE chance that CLee plays another game in a sox uni, until ozzie is no longer manager.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Jul 26, 2006 -> 09:21 AM) I suggested that because maybe you could get the Dodgers pay a bit of his deal, like they did with Odalis Perez. And with Podsednik probably leaving next season (even though he is arbitration eligible IIRC), we'll need a leadoff hitter to replace him. Upgrading from Uribe, seems like the best choice for me, if you can't get a guy like Carl Crawford. Plus if you trade Garcia, you save the $10M you'll have to pay him next season as well. You might as well put that money towards something right? one word... CREDE

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Jul 25, 2006 -> 11:30 PM) Why aren't we winning? Because bench improvements are marginal improvements and make only small differences, if any, in the standings. WRONG we arent winning because our pitching aint pitching, and our hitting aint hitting has nothing to do with aquiring bench players or not

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jul 25, 2006 -> 08:40 PM) Can we get a break? Please! we got our break with the tag/out at the plate last night

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jul 25, 2006 -> 08:14 PM) WHy do the umps hate this team. It has continued on this year. Even after we won the series. dont forget... we now have questech installed at USCF

haha... take that you sandy haters hahaha the lojack thing has been around all season, or at least mentioned each time

QUOTE(sircaffey @ Jul 25, 2006 -> 06:43 PM) If there are 3 deals, you got believe they are Soriano in, Vazquez out, and a minor trade for a backup OF. I see nothing else Kenny could do logically, unless there's a bigger trade none of us can even draw up. scotty, uribe, and freddy for a-rod, cabrera and cash ... scotty can play lf/center, freddy can help with pitching, and uribe can do ss/2b to assist with cano being on DL or if you want to throw washington in the mix too, wash gets yankees stud pitch 'spect, along with liotta/sweeney, yanks get broadway, soriano, sox get a-rod, church and cash

QUOTE(bmags @ Jul 25, 2006 -> 04:57 PM) if we resign Soriano, does that mean crede gone. imho, the only way crede is gone is if he lets boras outprice his services... which joe said would not happen

QUOTE(iamshack @ Jul 25, 2006 -> 04:37 PM) How does that get KW some extra cash? Those players make nothing right now. meaning nats give some cash to go with soriano i doubt they get enough extra to make a difference in a LT contract

QUOTE(GreatScott82 @ Jul 25, 2006 -> 04:23 PM) If this trade does eventually happen, I can see it being Pods, Broadway and a lower level prospect for Soriano. He'll then be a rent-a-player for the rest of 2006 and then for 2007 I can see Josh Fields as our starting LFer. Thoughts? kdub hates expensive rent a players i still cant see us hanging on to soriano... rather trading him off again besides... soriano doesnt like the outfield, tho is semi comfortable there now. do we really want to have a guy on the team that thinks this way?

QUOTE(JimH @ Jul 25, 2006 -> 04:02 PM) 4 pm update on ESPN1000, the update guy quoted Bruce Levine as saying the White Sox and Nationals are talking, and the White Sox are putting together a package of prospects, possibly to include Lance Broadway. if indeed it is just prospects, you can bet that it would not be the only deal to go down... they still would have to do something with pods/soriano/ whoever. i know KDub has said 'not trading my starters' before and then done just that, but this time i am thinking that he meant it. perhaps maybe pods, but i doubt it--at least to the nats. If the sox know they wont be able to afford soriano after this season (approx 5/65 is being talked about) unless the sox want the 2 prospects after the season, i'd bet that soriano wont stay in chicago, but be shipped elsewhere. im pipe dreamin, but i still would like to see us get soriano for 'spects (hopefully not including fields) then ship soriano/uribe (possibly with fields) to NY for arod, but arod has no-trade and would look bad if he asked out of ny. weather or not someone replaces pods, eh dunno. could happen, but he is cheap, and while the sox are struggling right now, he's still part of the chemistry makeup.

espn's national radio updates still say close to soriano deal, but note that the sox do not want to include mccarthy....

...no crede in the deal give them fields over crede i mean, yeah crede could end up walking sooner, but i'll kee crede anyway, thank you

QUOTE(spiderman @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 12:10 AM) Please, stop the ARod to the White Sox talk - IT ISN'T GOING TO HAPPEN. and people said we wouldnt bring back everett again last time

a-rod wouldnt be that expensive, i do not believe, cost wise... tex is paying 10mil/year, get yankees to pay some of the remaining 15, say 3 and dooo eeeet

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 23, 2006 -> 11:37 PM) Phil Rogers is making his case for why the Cubs should trade ARam and J. Jones for ARod. We don't have the pieces to trade the Yanks to get ARod, as we don't have a 3rd baseman to give back (we'd be trading ARod to play SS). Personally, I think Tejada would be so much of a better "blockbuster" guy to try and trade for. cairo could play 3rd. or give them fields

QUOTE(Felix @ Jul 23, 2006 -> 11:31 PM) That is by far the funniest thing I have read in some time. hey a guy can dream... send haeger, send broadway, heck, send garcia, or give them vasquez back

.... a-rod on the south side... that would be a big deal send uribe... send pods... bring up sweeny, or somethin... git-er-dun!

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 12:19 PM) I think when Ozzie said he slid into second like his wife was playing SS, that pretty much ended any chance of Carlos playing for Ozzie/Kenny. yep! carlos wouldnt protect his teamates, ozzie didnt appreciate it.... he's gone for good

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Jun 16, 2006 -> 09:39 PM) Dustan Mohr got designated for assignment; Still interested in picking up an OF to replace Gload if you can tell. you can't replace gload with someone that cannot play 1B.... ozzie has repeatedly said thome will not see regular time at 1st... besides, ross is a good stick off the bench

if that were to happen (chavez) someone should be shot
