July 22, 200421 yr I'd like KW to find some right-handed bullpen relief. We need to replace Mike Jackson in the bullpen. Another starter wouldn't hurt either. I hope we're not done dealing, but the Sox don't seem to be mentioned as much as other teams.
July 22, 200421 yr Kenny Williams has always been pretty good about flying under the radar with his deals. I think he'll make a move or two, I don't think it'll be anything blockbuster but just some additions to bolster the pitching staff.
July 22, 200421 yr Mike Jackson, Jon Adkins, Politte or Schoenweiss don't impress me at all. I would like to see any or all of them "replaced".
July 22, 200421 yr The Sox have gotten their big deal out of the way early. I think they will make a move for another reliever, but a catcher might be harder to find, and therefore go unfilled. But don't forget it is typical KW form to fly under the radar and make his move.
July 22, 200421 yr I'm not as worried about the catcher situation. As long as every starter likes who they are throwing to, I think it will work. Offense is a nice bonus, but probably not a necessity on this team. You can never have too many arms. It's not like last year when something really had to be done. I like this team, just wish we were a little healthier.
July 22, 200421 yr Mike Jackson, Jon Adkins, Politte or Schoenweiss don't impress me at all. I would like to see any or all of them "replaced". Good luck. Politte is fine in my book. Schoe's last start was good, hope he can build on it.
July 22, 200421 yr Well except for the Sox this whole season has been quiet trade wise, it's really beginning to look like any flurry of activity is going to wait til next Thursday-Saturday.
July 22, 200421 yr Mike Jackson, Jon Adkins, Politte or Schoenweiss don't impress me at all. I would like to see any or all of them "replaced". Why don't you like politte he's one of our best pitchers?
July 22, 200421 yr One option for catcher is Dan Wilson. The Twins are the only team in talks with the M's right now so getting him could kill 2 birds with one stone. Other than that, I wouldnt like to see much else, other than a couple arms in the pen.
July 22, 200421 yr Kenny has something else up his sleeve. He always flies under the radar and I don't think he'll make another blockbuster trade but add pitching depth. To me it speaks how good KW really is because he's already made 2 trades and most of us expect him to make atleast one more and some contenders might not even make one deal.
July 22, 200421 yr Look for him to pick up a reliever and possibly a catcher. However if the club is firing on all cylinders, you may see him go relatively quiet, minus another reliever.
