December 17, 200322 yr Sun-Times is full of s***. Most likely it is... but I just wanted to get the article out there...
December 17, 200322 yr Take it FWIW but the ST now saids the Nomar to Chicago deal probably won't happen... http://www.suntimes.com/output/baseball/cst-spt-arod17.html That is an old report. Gammons now has confirmed that the deal is in place. Probably confirms the Sun-Times report.
December 17, 200322 yr Sun-Times is full of s***. Mike Royko's immortal words: "No self-respecting fish would be caught wraped in a Sun Times."
December 17, 200322 yr Most likely it is... but I just wanted to get the article out there... I don't think Kym is coming, but this Nomar thing is real.
December 17, 200322 yr ESPNews just said that Maggs will go to Boston.. Nomar will go to LA... and the Dodgers would send us Odalis Perez, Mota, and ONE prospect.. that Pitcher... Im pretty sure we arent getting Nomar, but the LA package which I think is a rip unless we get 2 top prospects
December 17, 200322 yr I think ESPNnews is just going on all the other rumors out there. I think Nomar will stay now.
December 17, 200322 yr Sun Times is just speculating. Here is what we know or are pretty certain of: 1) Red Sox want Maggs 2) La wants Maggs or Nomar 3) White Sox have Maggs. From most websites the major rumor is, right now the Sox are seeing what deals they can get for their players before they get Nomar. Included in rumors: 1) Valentine to Texas, so that Red Sox do not have to pay as much compensation. 2) Valentine to Mariners, for Guillen and cuts salary. 3) Konerko to LA. Etc, etc. To say the Sox do not have the salary is blind to the fact the Sox may make the trade and see what happens. Would Seattle accept Nomar for Garcia and Soriano? Maybe, and thats what we wanted for Maggs, so why not take Nomar, at worst case scenario we are still in the same position we were with Maggs, and we can still trade at the deadline. But instead of having an OF, we have a power hitting SS. At deadline more teams will want Nomar for the playoffs then Maggs, as he plays a skill position. SB
December 17, 200322 yr Take it FWIW but the ST now saids the Nomar to Chicago deal probably won't happen... http://www.suntimes.com/output/baseball/cst-spt-arod17.html The Sun-Times, especially Doug Padilla are so full of s***, they are completly clueless.
December 17, 200322 yr 1) Valentine to Texas, so that Red Sox do not have to pay as much compensation. 2) Valentine to Mariners, for Guillen and cuts salary. Who is this "Valentine" person...??
December 17, 200322 yr Has anything OFFICIAL been announced at all? No because it all depends on A-Rod to Boston.
December 17, 200322 yr I forgot most people only recognize him as Jo5e. Anyways, I expect him to be moved regardless of whether or not we are keeping Nomar, or even getting him. SB
December 17, 200322 yr No but things should happen in the next few days and I am just praying that we dont end up getting the short end of any thing that happens... dont get your hopes up for Nomar, that way if we do get him it will feel better and if we dont we can say we knew it wasnt gonna happen anyway.. just an easier way to think of it
December 17, 200322 yr I forgot most people only recognize him as Jo5e. Anyways, I expect him to be moved regardless of whether or not we are keeping Nomar, or even getting him. SB They probably also recognize him as Jose Valentin....
December 17, 200322 yr ESPNews just said that Maggs will go to Boston.. Nomar will go to LA... and the Dodgers would send us Odalis Perez, Mota, and ONE prospect.. that Pitcher... Im pretty sure we arent getting Nomar, but the LA package which I think is a rip unless we get 2 top prospects Peter Gammons has confirmed Nomar to Sox, pending ARod deal: http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=1688365
December 17, 200322 yr I am on the keep Nomar boat. The problem last season was lack of "O" Thank you. I'm trying to get through all these posts, and there it finally is. I'm on that boat as well for that exact reason!
