Thanks, where you hear that one from, and how does the whole trading of picks work, I thought picks couldnt be traded. If they can, it just never happens.

Marlins get: Manny Ramirez, cash, prospect from Red Sox Red Sox get: Jason Bay, John Grabow Pirates get: Ryan Tucker, Jeremy Hermida, one prospect from Red Sox that clears it up a bit more, for me atleast. Thats the latest news i see about it. Pirates do alright if they get Lowrie from the Red Sox, but it doesnt look like it and I dont what the Marlins could get from the Sox minors

QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Jul 30, 2008 -> 10:17 PM) No, he said "the A's and Sox are talking about Street.......and the Sox have offered OC out there blah blah Dogers interested" oh alright, thanks .. thats what half listening will do

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 30, 2008 -> 10:06 PM) Thats a retarded deal for the Marlins. I think its worse for the Pirates

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jul 30, 2008 -> 10:01 PM) First off- I didn't hear him say it was offered. Secondly- The Manny trade isn't official yet, settle down. hmm ... didnt know i was all up in arms over it .. thanks though

Buster Olney just said the Sox offered Orlando Cabrera to the A's for Street. I dont know who else has posted that but interesting. For the Manny trade, the Pirates got raped, unless that prospect they got from the Red Sox is SS Jed Lowrie, and I dont know who they would get from the Marlins.

That guy on the mound, will not be dealt case closed

Honestly, Fields is just the worst fielder i have ever seen .. Oh nice play Josh!

Ramirez was safe. That was bad by Punto, but the ball got there so quickly you had to call him out

We aren't trading that guy on the mound ... end of story

Jesus, CQ is all business coming out of that batting box. Nothing new, but that guy is a beast

Paulie could really take advantage of this situation ... Come on Paulie come through

CQ! we'll see one of those from Fields tonight too

So Wilbon on PTI just said that Ben Gordon has been thinking about going across sea, I never really thought about that but he could very well do it and the Bulls get nothing out of it, I think. Anyways thoughts from that.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jul 30, 2008 -> 03:50 PM) Offer Fields and Poreda for Tracy and Owings. Done. Owings is on his way down to AAA, Tracy has the injury problems and he only has playing time cuz Byrnes is out I believe. We would have to ask for much more, I would ask for Tony Pena and something else atleast

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 30, 2008 -> 03:17 PM) I wouldn't trade Floyd for anything less than a star player (or another young player whose already proven himself). That doesn't mean Floyd straight up, but I'm talking about Floyd in a package for an ace starter or premiere baseball player (none of which can be rentals). You would only had Floyd in a Garza-for-DYoung deal, and I agree with that if thats what i understand from your statement.

Interesting move by Detroit. Inge now becomes the full time catcher, which should work out better for them.

Screw it ... Lets just go get Jason Bay

QUOTE (AWhiteSoxinNJ @ Jul 30, 2008 -> 02:04 PM) Crede has a better health record then Tracy. I'll pass. Crede also has the greater chance of not being on his '08 team in '09

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jul 29, 2008 -> 11:57 PM) I wonder if we could deal Gordon and Hinrich to NY for David Lee... Have David Lee and Aaron Gray on the court together ... that would be a f'ing sight to see

QUOTE (rangercal @ Jul 29, 2008 -> 10:43 PM) Nope. They will sign him. Kirk needs to go. They are so far away though, I see no more then a 1 year deal, in which he then ends up packing his bags .. Kirk can go with him

QUOTE (rangercal @ Jul 29, 2008 -> 10:40 PM) Good. Ben next and trade Kirk. by "Ben next" i hope it means now sign and trade Ben ... hah

Thats the easier "Big Question" on CSN "Can you name the two Divison I Quarterbacks on the Sox Roster?" Fields and Richard!

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 29, 2008 -> 10:32 PM) I swear, every time I stick something in the catch-all thread... ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh well

yeah apparently the only way to compete in the league now is getting 3 big pieces to put on the court KG-Allen-Pierce Yao-Artest-McGrady Noah-Deng-Rose ..... eh eh?
