Thome seems much more likely than Paulie...

QUOTE(CanOfCorn @ Jun 25, 2007 -> 03:48 PM) I like it, but... Me: "Hey look, Flight of the Conchords is on." Wife: "Nope." Me: "But...." Wife: "Nope." Me: "I'll let you watch Legally Blonde or The Sweetest Thing next time it's on." Wife: "Nope." Gotta start DVR'ing it. That's EXACTLY how it happened when talking to my wife about it... I've got the first 2 episodes DVR'd. It's funny how i'll watch 90210 reruns with her, but she won't try "Flight of the Concords" lol.

If he wasn't a nutjob I still wouldn't be outwardly impressed with that offer...

I don't really think Omar should have been banned... there's nothing wrong with argument and I dont believe he got out of line at all...

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 24, 2007 -> 08:11 PM) Or I can post whatever I want and tell you to shut your face. I know you've never been a dick about anything on here. How exactly do you go about deciding what constitutes an overrated player and what constitutes an underrated one? Who is underrating these players and how are they doing it? The general populace? And what, MWAH, a dickhead? or to go the T2 route... "Excuse me, did you just call MWAH a dips***?" god i love that movie... almost as much as you, Kal.

I'm sure they were scouting him for the upcoming series... he's not going to Tampa... not that i dont want half the kids in that organization... brignac longoria crawford upton baldelli (sort of) young dukes (talent wise, though stay away) hell, even gomes guzman then you have kazmir shields mcgee price niemann they are loaded with interesting and cute options, but it just won't happen.

All very sexy points.

You know, in every story I read about KW trading Mark Buehrle, it reports that KW won't allow teams to negotiate a contract extension with Mark as part of a deal. Perhaps this is out of respect to Buehrle, but I think KW is severely handcuffing teams who would be willing to part with much more talent if they could negotiate a contract... that's less of a PR disaster if this 3-month renter does not result in a World Series win. So what's up with this, why won't KW let teams negotiate? If its for Buehrle, I don't see how having open ears hurts him, and if its for KW's ego bc he doesn't want Buehrle to be extended if he can't be extended with the Sox, well, that's just plain silly.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jun 26, 2007 -> 02:24 AM) Trade CL Bobby Jenks & OF Brian Anderson to the Braves For C Jarrod Saltalamacchia MLB & RP Joey Devine AA & SS Elvis Andrus A+ That is about as impossible of a trade as you'll ever see. um, you missed this one might be a tad more impossible.

Yeah, no thanks on the Anthony Reyes... we already have 1 project next superstar ace turned failure in Gavin Floyd. Greener pastures reside in New York, Boston, and Atlanta.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 25, 2007 -> 04:57 PM) Hughes, Gallardo and Homer Bailey are the three untouchable pitching prospects in baseball. Joba and Kennedy are much more realistic. I'd take Melky and Kennedy for Buehrle. Tim Lincecum hates you for the slap in the face... considering he's the best of them...

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jun 25, 2007 -> 04:24 PM) I don't think he will either. But if things get rough for the Yanks and Buehrle is willing to negotiate and sign an extension (ie the team gets a window to negotiate) than I do think it could become a possibility (albeit a rare one). I just don't see why you'd deal a guy like Hughes who's due back sometime soon in order to get Buehrle... Hughes is capable of pitching well now, and he's only 20 years old... you could come up with the worst possible scenario for the yankees, and it wouldnt be as bad as trading hughes for buehrle... i think we could give them thome, buehrle, sweeney, and gio gonzalez and they'd still gladly spit in our faces. maybe im crazy, but they CANNOT trade hughes... not with the hype around him and the fact that he's ready right now, albeit injured.

QUOTE(mu mu @ Jun 25, 2007 -> 01:20 PM) We get to play a team that might be as bad as we are. Someone hasn't been paying much attention to the ol' D-Rays this year... they are actually fun to watch. if only bj were healthy! QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 25, 2007 -> 03:44 PM) If he struggles today, I could see him moving to the bullpen and Floyd getting called up. they wont move danks to the bullpen in a season like this. he'll be in the mlb rotation for the season.

Just say NoNo to Coco.

QUOTE(striker62704 @ Jun 25, 2007 -> 03:35 PM) Are you being serious or making fun of me? Just curious. um. i was dead serious... Let me go out on a limb right now and say bringing up Phil Hughes' name in any talk is just utterly insane. He will not be traded by the Yankees...

Not to mention he's the best mid-season pitcher that's been available in a very long time.

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Jun 25, 2007 -> 02:55 PM) Good control. Striking out guys. Not allowing runs. Hot June. Velocity consistently at 92-94 (according to BHAM). Going deep into games. Getting big hammer over. Wow, he might be back, seeing that velocity hitting 94 is huge... eh? I'd love to get him up to the bigs and see if some of the big time potential can be realized.

QUOTE(striker62704 @ Jun 25, 2007 -> 02:54 PM) If you look at the teams interested in Sox players, it appears as though KW is putting them up against eachother. Boston & NYY ATL & NYM LAA & SEA SD & LAD & AZ I think KW is running up the price. I think LAD and AZ have the best prospects. http://scout.scout.com/a.z?s=381&p=9&a...p;rc=4&ai=a This is a GREAT post.

Sorry, just want those more educated in what he's been doing to give me the lowdown... I hear good things.

You know what? For as much as people like to bash Kenny lately, I have nothing but complete confidence that he'll get a very acceptable package for Buehrle...

QUOTE(Soxbadger @ Jun 25, 2007 -> 02:37 PM) All of these threads are a joke. It's called 05 hangover. They'll be gone soon enough.
