I decided to start my new club now... look at the sig for info.

Braves trade Ledezma for Royce Ring...

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Jul 31, 2007 -> 02:55 PM) Steve Phillips has reminded everyone why he got fired--saying Gooch will slide over to 3B. When Utly returns, Gooch will likely slide over and play some third for the phillies.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 31, 2007 -> 01:52 PM) Were people seriously expecting us to get a good prospect for Mackowiak? better then John Link. We had no use for trading Mackowiak. Well, now come to think of it, the only benefit we have from trading Mack is freeing up that couple million he would cost us. Right now, it looks like we have a long 3-5 years ahead of us.

I would start the Rick Hahn for GM club right now, but I will give Williams to benefit of the doubt and wait until a couple hours past the deadline.

From Damaso Marte to Jon Link... wow.

KW better surprise the s*** out of us with a big trade because he has now officially pretty much given away 2 players for two A ball pitchers with issues. I think I will get a Rick Hahn for GM club going tonight.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Jul 31, 2007 -> 01:42 PM) If it's another "project" single A pitcher, then screw you, KW. same here... my hopes and dreams are getting shattered by KW every day it seems like.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 31, 2007 -> 01:36 PM) Murton's not exactly young. he 25 going on 26. Not exactly young, but not past his prime.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 31, 2007 -> 01:15 PM) I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's for Nick Hundley, KW actually pulls off a deal that nets us a semi-talented player. that'd be a pretty good trade and explain why Stavo went bye bye.

QUOTE(robinventura23 @ Jul 31, 2007 -> 01:12 PM) Why must we keep getting these no-name minor leaguers in return? Why does KW continue to give players away for free? This is f*in ridiculous. Mack was good. we don't know who the minor leaguer is yet... lets wait and see before we bang down KW's door hold torches and pitch forkes.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Jul 31, 2007 -> 01:04 PM) If its those three, Dye is in RF and Owens in LF. Owens has played a lot of LF, Dye has a stronger arm, Owens has more speed. I know... in retrospect, it was a bad idea to go from 9-8-7 instead of 7-8-9.

lol... I know, but one can hope.

Hopefully the minor leaguer is Matt Antonelli.

Hopefully it is Matt Antonelli.

any news for what we might be getting in return?

QUOTE(frankie5angels @ Jul 31, 2007 -> 01:03 PM) Mack to the Padres for what? source?

Dye - Rowand - Owens.

even if Dye isn't traded, I'd still be happy if news of Pods getting DFA'd came in.

Red Sox are trading Daniel Murphy and Kason Gabbard for Gagne, pending on if he waives his NTC... I don't think we are getting Murphy then,.

I just can't take it anymore... I'm gonna leave for 2 hours and hopefully when I come back, I will be pleasantly surprised. I'm not gonna hold my breathe though.

I have a feeling a whole lotta nothing is gonna happen today and White Sox fans around the world will be very disappointed and a lot will call for KW's head as it would be obvious he will not be able to rebuild this team with him as GM.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 31, 2007 -> 11:12 AM) Well, this kind of sucks. Apparently the Yankees have agreed in principle to send Proctor to the Dodgers for Wilson Betemit. He's going to be a pretty damn good player, it's a shame it will have to happen in New York. where would Betemit play in New York? 1B?... I'm saddened by this. There goes my dreams of a Garland for Kershaw, Hu, and Betemit trade. Betemit, Fields, and Hu would have been a pretty good left side of the infield if you ask me.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 28, 2007 -> 02:42 PM) Loved Gwynn. I was never a real big Ripken fan though, he played in a s*** load of games, congrats. same here... none the less, it is a very good class.

great work!
