March 26, 200520 yr Just wanted to say that there is a trade in the works right now! The Sox and a few other teams are talking on a possible trade! Although this may not happen.. but its looking like it will, especially if Borchard doesn't make this team.. But my sources say that the A's, Brewer's, and a few mystery teams, are interested in Borchard, Harris, or Crede! but the sox ARE looking to trade Contrerus. They are trying to get rid of his high salary. if this trade happnes most likely it will happen before opening day. But expect Crede to be in the rumors especially in june or July if nothing happens soon.

Without naming names, if you're uncomfortable doing so, do you know scouts, media people, baseball personnel ... ? Not doubting you, just want to know how close the connect is. Thanks.
March 26, 200520 yr Crede = No way he'll get traded now. Borch and Harris I could possibly believe. A guy like Wilson Betemint? from the Braves might not make the 25 man roster, and could be waived IIRC, and I know the Nats were very interested in him.
March 26, 200520 yr Author My buddy Tom works with the Tribune, and he knows a few officials in some organizations

March 26, 200520 yr If the Sox want to bring up BMac, I don't think we should get rid of Contreras. Say Contreras is moved, if any of the top five go down, we're in the same boat we've been in the past few years.
March 26, 200520 yr Author No.. He works behind the scenes, he did take a few pictures for a few column though
March 26, 200520 yr No.. He works behind the scenes, he did take a few pictures for a few column though <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Sounds like he's a research guy. Does he have frequent contact with decision makers in baseball organizations, or is he getting this info from media contacts in other cities? Thanks again.
March 26, 200520 yr I've got $100 bucks that says this guy is ChiSoxTony from another Sox board. He goes around posting rumors that never actually happen. He said that Matt Clement to the Sox was a done deal right before he signed with Boston. :rolly
March 26, 200520 yr Author ... I know for a fact that he has a good relationship with the Brewers G.M. they played Golf a few times. He has a good friend named Larry that works with the red sox. I know he gets some of his information from him to!
March 26, 200520 yr QUOTE(SoxDaFox005 @ Mar 25, 2005 -> 08:53 PM) No.. He works behind the scenes, he did take a few pictures for a few column though Just a piece of advice. I have zero tolerance for trolls who post BS, so if you want to continue posting here, you had better not be full of it. That is all.
March 26, 200520 yr Author First of all. My name is not Tony. It's Steve! and second of all I am a huge Sox fan. and i hate it when people lie about them!
March 26, 200520 yr Author And Im not saying that the trade will happen.. Im just saying that they're exploring options. but it is looking decent for Borchard and Harris to be traded and Crede and Jose Might Be added!!
March 26, 200520 yr First of all. My name is not Tony. It's Steve! and second of all I am a huge Sox fan. and i hate it when people lie about them! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> There are a lot of people who like to spread rumors without any basis, and this group has no tolerance for that ... and rightly so. Stepping out on a limb here, you write as if you're awfully young, perhaps too young to have these connections. None of my business, and again I am trying to be nice here, but we are a skeptical group when it comes to these sorts of things. What does Tom do for the Trib? "Taking a few pictures" doesn't really describe it if you know what I'm sayin'.
March 26, 200520 yr Author Hey you don't have to believe me but then if it happens.. I'd like to say I told u so!!!
March 26, 200520 yr And Im not saying that the trade will happen..

This ridiculous thread should be tossed in the garbage where it belongs. Edited March 26, 200520 yr by Jabroni
March 26, 200520 yr Hey you don't have to believe me but then if it happens.. I'd like to say I told u so!!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> What did you exactly tell us? That half the team could possibly be traded? :headshake It's ChiSoxTony. Edited March 26, 200520 yr by Jabroni
