September 21, 200421 yr We really don't need to take chances. We could probably do a lot better with Maggs salary gone and any budget increases. Huh? Don't take any chances? Teams have to take chances every year. Look at the Cardinals with Jeff Suppan. How about us last year with Loaiza. So many teams take chances, sometimes they work, sometimes they don't.
September 21, 200421 yr Although I am not a fan of trading Konerko whatsoever, if he does happened to be traded, Gibbons is a definite upgrade over Gload at first base. Youre kidding right.

What I mean is, instead of getting a guy like Gibbons to replace Magglio, get an already estabvlished palyer to replace him, and if we get Gibbons, have it be in a backup or 4th/5th OF role. The division will not be won with us signing Gibbons and 'taking the chance' that he will adequately step in where Maggs left off.

No way I'd want him as our everyday OF.
