December 8, 200322 yr Jeff Nelson and our man Osuna What do you guys think? Kenny might go after Osuna...
December 8, 200322 yr Another good right handed reliever available is Todd Worrell, and there are many more.
December 8, 200322 yr other decent options Mike Jackson Darren Holmes Dave Veres Gary Glover Brandon Puffer Armando Benitez Mike DeJean Mike Williams Jose Jimenez Rodrigo Rosario courtesy of http://home.earthlink.net/~pdave/id5.html Julian Tavarez Corey Thurman (wouldnt mind signing him to a cheap minor league deal) Ugueth Urbina Is a 6 year free agent the same as any unrestricted free agent?
December 8, 200322 yr TM PITCHER G W L SV ERA IP H BB K CWS Diaz,F. 4 1 0 0 1.21 22.1 14 3 14 CWS Munoz,A. 5 2 0 2 0.00 8.1 4 5 11 The reason we might not need some relievers and didn't offer Sullivan arbitration is because these guys: Felix Diaz and Analdo Munoz are light out in the Dominican League. Diaz is a righty and Munoz is a lefty, they might be in the pen in 2004. Courtesy of Baseball America's prospect report.
December 9, 200322 yr Another good right handed reliever available is Todd Worrell, and there are many more. Heard the Braves are very high on Tim Worrell on Sportscenter for Tim Kurkjian. He thinks a deal will prob get done soon. I wouldn't mind seeing Osuna back though.

There's a slight difference between the Dominican League and AAA minor leagues, let alone the Big Leagues. I do see your point however.
December 9, 200322 yr Also, here r some otha relievers NOT offered arbitration. Chad Fox Mike Myers Rick Helling Mike Williams Mike DeJean Jeff Fassero

December 9, 200322 yr All I know is the Sox better do something because it looks more and more likely to have Rodriguez in a Cubs Uniform.
December 9, 200322 yr I really like the idea of Chad Fox in a White Sox uniform. I think Ozzie will tell KW to go afta him afta what he did in the World Series for Florida.

December 9, 200322 yr better check out my earlier post DBAHO Oh yeah I didn't see that. Oops. Oh well I added Fox to ur great list anyways.
December 9, 200322 yr Benitez and Jimenez are two guys I'd be interested in. I think the Sox should get as many guys with closer experience that are good that you possibly can. Guardado, Arthur Rhodes (I may of missed it, maybe the Mariners have signed him cause I haven't been around much today) and then Benitez and Jimenez. Get two of them to go with Marte and use Koch to get another reliever and I think your set with Wright and one of the rookies as your other reliever.

Yeah Todd Worrell is gonna make a come back at 42 lol
December 9, 200322 yr Jimenez Sucks.... Benitez Well..... Yeah Todd Worrell is gonna make a come back at 42 lol Other Worrell, closer for Giants last year, I think it's Tim.
December 9, 200322 yr Jimenez Sucks.... Benitez Well..... Yeah Todd Worrell is gonna make a come back at 42 lol My bad Tim Worrell, not the former closer of the Dodgers...Todd. I don't think Benitez sucks. He isn't the best but he has a hell of a fastball and has been a sucessful closer for a while. He's not going to be get big bucks and could easily come in and do a job very similar to Gordon and I think he has a lot better odds of making it through the season healthy. And Jimenez has pitched very very well in Coors of all places. Once again great stuff and closer experience and could come cheap.

December 9, 200322 yr other decent options Mike Jackson Darren Holmes Dave Veres Gary Glover Brandon Puffer Armando Benitez Mike DeJean Mike Williams Jose Jimenez Rodrigo Rosario courtesy of http://home.earthlink.net/~pdave/id5.html Julian Tavarez Corey Thurman (wouldnt mind signing him to a cheap minor league deal) Ugueth Urbina Is a 6 year free agent the same as any unrestricted free agent? Rosario is a young guy who only has 8IP (CAREER) i don't know how he is a FA... Benitez--- made alot of money last year... Should be about the same as we suposedly offered EDDIE... He'd be a better option than Eddie. Good against both lefties and righties DeJean --- a cheaper option-- a decent pitcher to fill the pen. could be had at under $2 MIL Urbina --- Same as Benitez --- I would have been talking to Urbina and Benitez before EDDIE Jimenez -- Jason seems to like him--- he had his worst K/BB ratio of his career last year -- He made 3.5 MIL ...I'd pass.. But if he was able to get back to 2002 form...4:1 K/BB ratio I'll take that. The rest I either don't know anything about --- or I would hate to see on this team. well maybe not glover... at least we know what we'd be getting, and cheap

I don't know maybe a change of sceanery would help. Benitez.. is got a good arm. the thing i like is that you have to kill this dude on the mound he's gonna come after ya. Tim Worrell could help as a long man
December 9, 200322 yr s***, Nelson and Rhodes alone with fill the needs of our bullpen. Just estimating, but I would guess both salaries combined would cost the sox 8 million. Of course Colon was a higher priority.....but now that hes gone and money is up considerations should be made for these two.

KW said as much Colon was plan A and plan B didn't include the money that was being thrown at Colon.
