Levine reporting that the Rangers have serious interest in AJ, but can't take on any salary. Sounds like Fathom may be right, haha.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 10, 2010 -> 12:58 PM) D1 has shown zero signs of offering any discount. If he was willing to give any discount they'd likely have signed him by now. D1 I'm sure is sitting there realizing he'll hit free agency as a 27 year old if he doesn't sign anything. He gets in the right groove one of these next 2 years, and he could be talking about nearly Sabathia type money. Yeah. He'll probably end up being traded. What a downer that would be.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 10, 2010 -> 12:49 PM) He's worth it to a team that can afford it. If your total salary hangs at $95 million, then that's >20% of your salary on 1 player. True that. Gotta hope for some kind of a discount, I would be totally comfortable with moving Buehrle and offering Danks about 70% of the salary that we save on Burls.

QUOTE (WCSox @ Jun 10, 2010 -> 12:46 PM) I'd like to see the Sox run Castro out there and try to deal him next month. When Castro is gone, Lucy and Flowers can split time at C. Flowers could get additional ABs at DH. Not something you read every day.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 9, 2010 -> 08:02 AM) He's a free agent at the end of 2012, he's rejected every offer the Sox have made to sign him long-term so far, and it's entirely possible that he could be up for on the order of a 6-7 year, $15-$20 million a year deal. He is worth it.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 10, 2010 -> 12:39 PM) We're still 9 games back and the Twins are playing the Royals again tonight. We can beat the Tigers as much as we want, they're not the team we have to worry about. I didn't say we had a good chance. But it's not impossible for the Twins to just start f***ing up a little bit and the Sox to pick it up, if they close it to ~5 by the deadline, it'd be conceivable to come back.

Gotta love Danks. Dude needs to sign an extension please.

I personally think he is gone. He is a cool dude, but he hasn't been productive this year and we don't look to be going anywhere anyway, so why the hell not try Flowers out?

We haven't had a drunken optimism thread yet, so I think there is still hope for this team.

I got called stupid when I suggested that the Rangers would be interested in A.J this offseason. .

Did I really just see a post clamoring for the return of Juan Uribe?

Looks like it missed him clearly to me, lol.

Yeahhh. AGon and a better Pierre would be cool.

K 'peace nevermind

They're just building suspense so Rios can hit a 2 out Slam.

Pro AB Carlos.

Alex Rios is a good animal.

Ozzie does the stupidest s*** sometimes. Start Jones over Kostay, good, but bat him in front of Rios and put Rios in left? What the f***? He is your best outfielder. Use him so.

Pierre's head is so f***in tiny lol.

cool pitch, Peavy.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 7, 2010 -> 06:12 PM) Prediction: Peavy will be locked in now with the 3 run lead and retire the next 14 in a row. All on the 3 pitch strike out.

This Konerko guy is pretty good.

Great win. Everything worked. Let's do it again on Wednesday.

Love that versatility.

Just get an RBI.
