even if there is a article on chisox.com that says otherwise, its all politics with those things.... someone leaked the KW was talking to ATL about maggs so KW said, write up an article about maggs wanting to stay, cut and past comments he has made over the year, and get this under raps again.

i think that KW pulls the trigger sometime monday through sunday.... maggs/rauch for jones/ortiz

u think that JR would add 10 - 15 mil extra to the payrol if he could get that kind of product on the field for the next 3 years and be WS contenders each year? im goin out on a limb and saying, I DO

i think that, seeing maggs go wouldnt be too tough, knowing that he probably isnt going to sign here any how... even if there is a article on chisox.com that says otherwise, its all politics with those things.... someone leaked the KW was talking to ATL about maggs so KW said, write up an article about maggs wanting to stay, cut and past comments he has made over the year, and get this under raps again. this deal with ATL would be great for us now, and later. A) we get jones for 3 years and if ATL is goin to eat some of his cash, even better B) we have one of the best, if not the best PITCHING staff and BULLPEN IN THE MLB! garcia, burly, e lo, ortiz, and garland showe, marte, shingto, cruz, cotts, adkins C) we could sign all of the players above to multi year contracts and have a team that could be a WS contender for years to come... as we all know, pitching wins WS garcia-10 mil e lo-6 mil ortiz-6 mil burly-6 mil garland-3 mil starting pitching staff salary- 31 mil (half of JR's 62 mil budget, which he might up if we win big this year) releaf salary- about 5 mil so that would leave KW about 28 mil to work with for thomas, kong, jones, lee, etc.... which wont work.... hahah f*** so, bottom line... if JR wants to win this year and for 3 years to come.... GIVE US A f***ING 75 - 80 MIL. PAYROL!!!!

looks like it mmmmmmmmmmm there isnt gonna be a replacement for big mo... but im happy that we got an ace.

im gonna miss big mo... hes got a cannon and was really starting to develop... watch out for him.... s*** but, a pitcher like garcia, is more important in my mind... expecially if we can resign him. im gonna miss big mo but you gotta bend if you wanna win

i say yes, the peices are in place, it makes sence for us and KW is in dire need of a pitcher. the braves have been looking to get rid of jones contract for some time now and this gives them a chance to.

more then a really good young pitcher with a carrer record of 95-47 and a 6 time gold glove outfielder that hits pretty damn good... more then that, for a rent-a-player... thats askin a lot!

true, why trade a reliever for another reliever when your guy is working fine?

funny, wgn just showed loiza strike out jones =D

this is funny, found it on a braves message board: "What do you guys think about this one.... White Sox get: Andruw, Ortiz, and Furcal Braves get: Maggs, and Konerko" hahaha go to hell and back and that deal still wont happen, buddy! =D

damn, look at Ortiz's last start: Ortiz (W, 7-6) 7.0 7 0 0 2 4 0 3.87 2 walks! brought his era back down to below 4 pull the freakin trigger KW.... get a nice CF, good SP, and some bullpen help all in one swoop! DOOO IT

funny chisoxfan... we basicly said the same thing at the same time, great minds think a like

me too, if im KW, i say go to the braves and tell them that you want Jones, Ortiz, Cruz, and cash and you will give them Maggs, Diaz or Rauch, and Stewart... if they say no, replace stewart with cotts

IMO: KW is lieing because he dosent want people to know about maggs being on the block. i can see why he would trade maggs to get a proven CF GG player in JOnes, and a proven starter with a carrer win-loss record of something like 100-50 it makes since to trade maggs to get 3 years of Jones and Ortiz.... but KW doesnt want the magglio fans, magglio himself, and other teams to know about his talks with the braves. this is why he likes to trade "under the radar"... he likes to have the cards in his hands... the ball in his court.

asshole? nawww

jeckles right man

i HATE those pinstriped assholes! SPANKMES BURN IN HELL

i wouldnt mind getting Ortiz... only if KW doesnt consider this our big time SP pick up... if we could get Ortiz, Garcia/another good SP, and 2 people for bullpen help... then i would start to think that all of hell froze over and jesus is comming back! if something like this was to happen, KW and JR would score some HUGE points with chicago and its fans

he pitched really well today, and his last outting was also great... the only thing that killed us today was the errors, if it wasnt for those errors, we would have won

that is kinda odd that it is writen about on the white sox homepage

"fine, then merge it someone" damn man, people are all pissed of and asshole like lately, or maybe im just reading into things wrong a lot

according to them,Levine said no deal goin down
