QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 11:22 AM) But you havent seen him play. The guy had success at AA and AAA previously. We dont know what he's working on down there. All we know is he is ranked highly, higher than any prospect in our system right now. And we got 10 million, and got rid of Teahen, AND got a really good affordable late inning reliever. Thats not bad. And Rios got benched

Oz seems to be on a different page than Kenny

Also KW says the Payroll is now such that we could do some creative things

KW says Stewart will be on this team soon

KW says the best players will play. Trying to send a message to the team he isnt playin around. Viciedo is still healing. Isnt reading to come up just yet.

KW says Rios has been benched!

The prospect is Zach Stewart a RHP

Nice guy and a good players. Good luck wherever you end up Edwin

QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 10:43 AM) Hes not just winging it, he uses an outside hitting coach, like a former White Sox great used to. and he is clearly thriving.....

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 10:40 AM) I would also like to thank Edwin for contributing to my alcohol abuse with his painful to sit through 120 pitch clusterf***s that forced me to drink even more to compensate for excessive boredom. Good riddance. Lol that to

QUOTE (kapzk @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 10:38 AM) That be a good thing in Chicago cuz we have Walker and Ozzie as coaches Yeah thats great but they actually do some good believe it or not. Having a playing that just wings it because he doesnt give a damn is not what we need right now.

One thing Id like to do is thank Edwin Jackson for playing his butt off. Nice guy and a good player just to bad he was paid so much.

Didnt TLR come out yesterday and say Rasmus refuses to listen to coaches? Why on Earth would you want a player like that on your team? We already have something similar to that playing in CF.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 10:27 AM) Would y'all have done Jackson + Viciedo + Reed for Rasmus? That answer should be a resounding HELL NO!

Jays were a better fit for Rasmus. They have prospects the Cards want. We do not. Its rather simple

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 10:22 AM) Hey. I've been consistent in my love and praise of his tool set and future studness. Yeah I wasnt directing that at you just a few others in here

Wow so now everyone is in love with Rasmus? I remember a bunch of people saying his was Rios 2.0. Now were screaming at Kenny because he may not want him?

QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 10:13 AM) Was there a roster spot already open for DeAza? Or has something else gone down ahead of the potential trade? Nope it has to be this trade

Joelsherman1 Joel Sherman Hear #Whitesox Edwin Jackson to #Bluejays close, but not complete yet because $$ not yet approved and Tor trying to spin him to another team from twitter

I just saw a tweet saying the deal isnt done because the money isnt finalized yet and the Jays are trying to flip him

Sounds like they needed this trade to go through for a roster spot

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 09:48 AM) This could maybe indicate there is a 3-way deal, or a conditional 2 trades, in the works. He just reported on his twitter that the Jackson Blue Jays trade is in the works. Seems he is still trying to get up to speed here.

If Danks goes we better be getting some damn good prospects

QUOTE (Anderson Cooper's Quivering @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 09:32 AM) Rosenthal usually is pretty reliable and won't post or write about something unless he was able to substantiate it. I would "assume" that the fix is in on this trade going down. We should check Teahen's twitter. *shrug* Its not just Rosenthal either its Morosi as well. Both Fox reporters.

Danks should garner a ton of interest. Yankees come to mind.
