Butter Parque Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 The LA Daily news reported that the Dodgers are likely to trade Mota before the deadline. I know KW was interested in him in the offseason. He is definitely a guy to go after. You can keep Shingo as the closer and have Mota be the right-handed set-up man.

EvilJester99 Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 That would be great if the Sox could get him but I bet LA will ask for a ton for him..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 I am sure the Dodgers will want instant offense for Mota, which we can't afford to trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wedge Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 I feel like the last piece that will be added will either be a catcher or some more bullpen help. Either way, I'm a happy camper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 It's been reported elsewhere on the site...in the Pavano and Benetiz available thread. And they want an MLB ready bat for him. That, in all likelyhood, will not come from us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowand44 Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 I wouldn't be surprised if the dodgers would want a starting pitcher instead of a bat but either way it's going to be hard for the sox to get him. But could you imagine going to the 7th inning being able to throw out mota, damaso and shingo that would be nasty but now back to reality.

dasox24 Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 We'd probably could give up Maggs, and get Mota and Ed Jackson in return... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoomSlowik Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 We'd probably could give up Maggs, and get Mota and Ed Jackson in return... That sounds smart, trade our #3 hitter when our offense has been struggling. No way we should deal Maggs. I'm not sure they would do it anyways, since Maggs is only signed through this year, the knee is going to be an issue, and he hasn't been hitting that well since he got back. Because of that I'm not sure how much value he has. They'd have to get a monster deal. Consider that they wouldn't give him up for Beltran. No way we would get him for just Borchard and prospects.

SoxFanForever Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 Jackson just went back on the DL with forearm soreness I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulokis Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 Damn if we get him we have Marte, Mota and Shingo and teams wont be able to come back with that bullpen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwerty Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 Damn if we get him we have Marte, Mota and Shingo and teams wont be able to come back with that bullpen. If we had mota the game would seriosly be a six inning game, but it is highly unlikely we get him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beck72 Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 LA would trade Mota for a top SP. The Sox don't have one to trade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalapse Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 Dont forget about how good Politte has been lately so you would have: Politte, Marte, Mota and Shingo ultra deadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWSOX45 Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 Pavano would be a free agent next year, am I right? Same with Benetiz? What does Florida want? As far as I'm concerned they are still very capable of winning that division. CWSOX45 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heads22 Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 Mota is flat out nasty. Why don't we give them Mike Jackson.....ya know....nothing in return.....but just give him to them. They'll probably send us Mota just to keep that from happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Critic Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 They coulda had Paulie and a pitcher ( minor-league variety ) last winter for Mota and Perez, but NOOOOOOOOOO..... I'm glad the Sox didn't make that trade, by the way - I'm happy with PK's year thus far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
