Andrew Miller- Yankees- 4/36

Matt Heidenreich returns to the Sox system.

QUOTE (flavum @ Nov 9, 2014 -> 10:41 PM) Figure out a trade where the Sox get Kemp, AJ Ellis, and Arruebarrena and the Dodgers get Alexei and John Danks. Gregorius to Yankees in a 3-team trade. I still like this trade idea four weeks later.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Dec 4, 2014 -> 02:44 PM) I had the same reaction as you guys, but if you think about it. Kid's value has never been higher - you could command ANYTHING for him. And we all know there's a distinct possibility his arm falls off in the near future. Maybe it won't. Maybe he's a freak of nature. But we all know what happened to the other "Freak" (Lincecum). Just saying, maybe...... maybe it's not as completely bat-s*** crazy as it sounds. If Abreu tanked, Eaton sucked, and Quintana fell off the map, we may be talking about trading Sale right now. It should be a non-thought at this point.

Dave Martinez, new Cubs bench coach.

Ibanez pulled out of the Rays managerial hunt. Down to Kevin Cash or Don Wakamatsu.

When you consider the team-friendly deals the Sox have with Abreu, Quintana, and Sale, it's almost like free money to play with. Sign Scherzer and trade for Kemp, the Sox would have a nice 5-year window to win.

QUOTE (Dunt @ Dec 3, 2014 -> 09:52 PM) Sooo slow for Sox news right now, monday can't come soon enough I want Monday to be Minoso's day, but after that, I want all hell to break loose.

Markakis 4/44 from the Braves.

JA Happ to Seattle for Michael Saunders. Toronto getting back another Canadian.

It's Medlen.

Zach Phillips, LHP. Pitched a little in Japan this year. https://twitter.com/MCAagency/status/540171899213324290 http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/p/phillza01.shtml

Non-tendered players... http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2014/12/list...rs-2014-15.html 6.5 years ago, I thought the Sox were getting Beckham or Smoak in the draft. Oh how the mighty have fallen.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Dec 2, 2014 -> 10:06 PM) His death was really scary as he actually didn't get hit in the head. He got hit at the top of his neck near the base of the skull. however it hit at just the right angle and pressure that it split his vertabral artery which stopped the blood supply to his brain. We are taught a way to test the intergrity of the vertebral artery before doing cervical manipulations and I cannot see how he got hit just rightr to have this happen. This is truly the definition of an awful situation with just horrible luck. RIP. I was going to change that since I read more about it. Sounds a lot like what killed Mike Coolbaugh.

Torii Hunter back to Minnesota for 1 year.

Fans of 29 teams are all saying the same thing.

Didn't expect Snodgress, but man he was terrible. Viciedo--I'll be surprised if he's with the Sox on March 1st.

Angels not expected to tender Gordon Beckham a contract. http://aldengonzalez.mlblogs.com/2014/12/0...e-non-tendered/ I wonder if this move impacts the Sox compensation in any way. Seems like a ridiculous amount of time to complete the trade.

It would be nice to see Viciedo gone one way or the other in the next 36 hours.

QUOTE (SoCalSox @ Nov 30, 2014 -> 06:54 PM) Welp, sure seems like Jim Benson was full of s*** or jumped the gun on his original tweet Friday night... Hate getting myself overly excited for absolutely nothing to happen. Ultimately, it seems to be better if the Sox don't trade valuable pieces for a 1 year rental when they could get something similar for simply money on the FA market. I don't think this guy was trying to get attention or made something up out of nothing. Like it was mentioned, they usually don't announce stuff on Sunday's during the football season, so maybe it will happen in the next few days. The Winter Meetings are in a week, and I think it's likely Samardzija is on a different team before they start.

QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Nov 30, 2014 -> 04:47 PM) So much for Sox getting him this weekend. Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

I like how Roenthal was finally fixed, but Samardzija is still wrong. BTW, when did Shark start with this guy? I can't call a grown man that I don't know Shark.
