QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Sep 9, 2006 -> 06:01 AM) The Rangers arent going to trade Michael Young thats ridiculous... yes they are high on Arias but they would sooner trade Blalock and put him at 3B than trade Young who is kind of their captain. I suppose that isn't scoffing, but he felt it would be "ridiculous" for the rangers to deal Young. QUOTE(Felix @ Sep 9, 2006 -> 10:25 AM) Unless you're playing MVP Baseball 2005, your trade makes literally no sense, and shouldn't be considering quasi realistic. The Rangers won't trade Young, a 29 year old shortstop who is making hardly anything, along with prospects for a 40+ year old pitcher who isn't as good as Sox fans think - and is on contract for another 3 years, making about $30 million - and a poor offensive shortstop (albiet the best defensive SS in the league) making MORE money per year than Young. That being said, it's better than the "john fields and another prospect for crawford" (or even better "javy and pods for crawford"), however that isn't saying much. EDIT: No wait, thats scoffing

Funny, i mentioned Young, and a few posters here scoffed at that idea, even though on the rangers own website they've been hyping up Joaquin Arias, and as we all know pitching has always been there problem, i highly doubt Garcia + Uribe would be enough, but maybe someone like Broadway/Phillips who should be ready by mid '07 would, i think giving up Broadway would be way too much on our end, Phillips not so much. Pitching > all. The rangers have alot of players leaving via FA this offseason, Lee, Matthews, Padilla, i think Eaton and Wells and a few others if im not mistaken. There is a weak FA class this offseason, thats why i believe someone like Jose could bring us alot back.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Sep 14, 2006 -> 10:48 PM) Because he's a very bad pitcher and his record is incredibly misleading much like a lot of starting pitcher's W/L record. Freddy Garcia is BAD, BAD, BAD, BAD, BAD, BAD . . . and so on. agreed garcia is "teh sux"

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Sep 14, 2006 -> 07:51 AM) So my question is, with his offense decreasing, can you afford to keep Juan Uribe and pay him over $4M next season? Are the Sox wise to make a move for a guy like Rollins who offers more speed, has a +.100 OPS than Uribe and a GPA of .258, despite the fact his contract is not very friendly? Yes, i think the sox would be very wise to pursue Rollins or Lugo, or anyone who can make the routine plays and back it up with a decent stick to above average stick. Juan has a slick glove but between him, anderson and podsednik strugling it didn't cripple the team the first half but it was maddning to watch. In this second half between Juan and Pods it just isn't cutting it. we need a new SS and a new LFer for the '07 season, i'd like to see our LFer come from with in our system (fields/sweeney).

*obligatory flash* Q: where is our liriano post? A: Not on the DL i kid, i like flashes insight amongst others on sox talk.

Hats off to Garcia today, thank you for raising your trade value, and hopefully we can get on a roll

What Does everyone think of Small Brown Bike? and Strike Anywhere?
