Sox&Cubs trade rumor

Right now I'd like a healthy middle infielder.

 

The sox at least should get a SS in AAA who could play in the majors, esp for an instance where Uribe could be out for a bit. Ozuna is the UTL guy. And Pedro Lopez in AAA is a bit young to help the sox now.

The Cubs have their starting middle infielders on the DL. I doubt they are shopping middle infielders right at the moment.

beck, they have a guy down there, Freddie Martinez. Thought he played in the Boston system last year. He got a fair amount of playing time the last two weeks of spring training.

Give them Politte...

You should take a look at Cliffy's numbers so far this season before you say that. ;)

Trade the prodigal son and get something of value in return. :ph34r:

Ha, you've been all over politte from the spring, care to watch him pitch this year?? Cause he's been damn good, Cliff's a good pitcher.

Why would the Cubs want Politte? They have enough righties in their bullpen who have two pitches.....a 95 mph fastball and a slider.

Nendry called Kenny. I doubt he's looking at anybody.

Charlotte.

 

He was mentioned as a probable call up if both Uribe and Ozuna can't play tomorrow. But it looks like one or both will be able to go.

I rather not rush them and give them as much time as they need off right now than to risk them being out longer or having trouble during the season. Granted Uribe's problem is worse and he is a lot more important but they should also be careful with Ozuna.

DuBois for Timo? :D

 

I mean, DuBois is going to be trash once summer hits -- 'cause, you know, he's not dark-skinned. And you can never have too many Perez' on your team, right Dusty? :lol:

If Uribe were to be out for a while, how about Cliff Politte and Ozuna for Neifi Perez? Perez won a gold glove at short somewhere.

Are you high? Neifi Perez is going to stop hitting like Babe Ruth in about a week and then he will go on a 0 for 50 streak. He is horrible.

Neifi Perez is still one of the Top 5 worst hitters in baseball. Don't Be fooled by this sudden surge of his.

Not sure why the board is trying to shoehorn a Sox-Cubs trade.

 

Sox like their bullpen and want to see how it performs over a couple of months. Plus, Sox would not be in a subtract mode in terms of bullpen personnel.

 

Also, Sox are not really enamored with helping out the Cubs.

 

If Uribe goes down for a while my guess is Ozuna gets the job for the time being and they bring in another utility guy.

What's with people wanted to get rid of Cliff?? I wouldn't touch this bullpen, it's to fricken good to mess with, imo.
