Cubs Suck23 Posted January 9, 2005 Author Share Posted January 9, 2005 HI8 I also think Borchard for Rollins and Wolf is a fair deal maybe we can give them adkins as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 And it was not sarcastic that Borchard for Rollins would be a big win for the Sox. Â I mean if the Phillies wanted to do that deal, who here would deny them? I think most Sox fans pretty much want to get any value they can for Borchard at this point.

AngelasDaddy0427 Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 This is just a pipe dream but it is fun to talk about. IMO there is no reason to trade Borchard. He's worth nothing and there's always the possibility he'll wake up. It would be stupid to trade him while he's value is in the toliet.

The thread title made me think it had gone through already, because the original name of the thread was "Jimmy Rollins to the Sox". It has since been changed.

Chisoxfn Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 I doubt Rollins would go for cheap. However, maybe the Phils feel Polanco can play ss for them and they can then move Rollins and get something of value. Â I have no idea of their needs, but I bet they'd be interested in Cotts or Marte. I don't know if I'd deal Marte or not though, because I like the pen being a strenght. However even if Marte is dealt I still think the pen is better this year than last year. Â But I'd say Cotts could be a possibility and you'd figure maybe Willie Harris. Minor leaguers would probably exclude Bmac, Anderson, and Sweeney however you could see Tracey as a guy. The question is would the Phils want major league players or minor league guys. Â If its a payroll dump maybe its more minor league guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gene Honda Civic Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 Jas, it's mainly a salary dump -- They have to move either Polanco or Rollins. Rollins may have more upside, Polanco is probably the safer bet to put up solid numbers, but Polanco caries a heftier price tag $$$. Rolins would probably take more to get, in terms of players.

CubsSuck1 Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 IF we got Rollins, I'd prefer Uribe at 3B, Rollins at SS, and Willie at 2B over Willie sitting on the bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JUGGERNAUT Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 Does someone have a track record on how often these Phillie related rumors turn out to be something? Â Who are the Phillies happy with? All we ever hear is how they aren't happy with productive players. Why? Is it money? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â You could say the same about Harris. Either way, we could sign a 3B, SS, or 2B, becasue of Uribe's versatility. I'd just prefer Harris starting, because he's shown more promise. If there needs to be a ST battle to figure out who starts, so be it. Competition can only be good for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
