  1. Haven't we discussed this on like 4 previous threads??? Why a New One? :banghead
  2. I Remember in 1989 when Fans voted for a retired Mike Schmidt. He had retired 3 weeks into that season and had to come out of retirement to play in the all-star game
  3. Armas has a lot of talent, but his injuries kinda scare me off. If he would be signed through next year maybe but I wouldn't give up 2 for him. We really can't count on a pitcher comming from injury in a playoff run cause they're not really sharp yet. Ohka ain't bad. wouldn't be a bad pickup, But if the sox are going after someone let it be a #1 and just slip everyone down a spot

  20. Jimmy Greenfield -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GRAND STANDING Working together to fan trade winds What trade can the White Sox and Cubs make with each other that would help both clubs? It goes against Cubs and White Sox fans' fiber to want to help each other out, which makes what I'm about to ask you to do even more difficult. The month of May isn't over yet, but it's apparent that it won't take a whole lot for either team to go to the playoffs. The Cubs are near the top of the NL Central despite losing Mark Prior, Kerry Wood, Sammy Sosa, Mark Grudzielank, Alex Gonzalez and Mike Remlinger at various times. The Sox are in good shape, too, even though they might have been better off forfeiting every fifth game rather than subjecting their bullpen to dozens of innings of extra work mopping up for Dan Wright, Felix Diaz and Neal Cotts. Plenty has gone right but there's room for improvement, which is why we're going to play my favorite game: Let's Make a Pretend Deal. The only rules: It needs to make sense for both the Cubs and the White Sox, and it can only involve those two teams. No three-way trades allowed. If you want to include prospects, go right ahead. At first, I didn't think I could find a blockbuster to help both teams and was prepared to offer up a minor trade. But then it hit me: The Cubs trade Matt Clement and Corey Patterson to the White Sox for Magglio Ordonez and Kelly Wunsch. It's a scary trade because of the marquee players involved and because Ken Williams and Jim Hendry would have plenty at stake if they actually pulled it off. But here's the reason they should do it: The trade makes sense. The White Sox's biggest need is quite clearly a fifth starter. They also need, in no particular order, a fifth starter, a fifth starter and a fifth starter. Everything else pales in comparison. On the other hand, the Cubs have had decent outings from their No. 5 starter Sergio Mitre, who will go to the minors when Prior comes back early next month. If Clement is dealt, Mitre can step back in and back end a rotation of Prior, Wood, Zambrano and Maddux. So Clement goes to the White Sox and they save millions while filling a huge need. But why deal Ordonez? First of all, because you have to give up talent to get talent. Second of all, the Sox have enough offense in Carlos Lee, Paul Konerko, Frank Thomas and Jose Valentin to get by without Maggs. Third of all, there's not a chance he signs with the White Sox next season. The Sox don't give out long-term deals worth tens of millions of dollars. They just don't. Clement is also a free agent next season, which means the Sox don't have to make a commitment to him. The Cubs get a dependable lefty in Wunsch, who has worn out his welcome with the Sox and put Ordonez in center field to replace Patterson, who gives the Sox the lefty bat they need. Why would the Sox want the free-swinging Patterson? Because he's good defensively, cheap for a few more years and not only has the potential to be great but produces every now and then. Plus, if he works out he's a huge marketing tool for the Sox. If the Sox had a No. 5 starter anywhere in the system, they would have found him by now. The Cubs have the depth to part with Clement, and a consistent superstar like Ordonez will be insurance if Sosa is hurt for a while. More importantly, it'll help prevent such a hit-or-miss offense. That's my bright idea. You got a better one? :puke :puke :puke
