June 15, 200520 yr QUOTE(sox-r-us @ Jun 15, 2005 -> 01:46 PM) If Neifi continues to do well, the Cubs might trade Nomar since they rather improve elsewhere and Nomar is signed only through end of this year anyways. I am suggesting I rather help the Cubs and get a stud SS back (who when healthy would be awesome for this lineup) than help another AL contender by getting their one year fluke 3B Who would take him, he's hurt.
June 15, 200520 yr Author I bring this out sparingly, but its definitly deserving: Dear sox-r-us, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul. signed, redandwhite

He had an exceptional 2003 season, but that shouldnt hinder the fact that he has been a good ballplayer for years.

Ya, I was actually just going to correct myself, I just recall he's been real good these last 3 years then I looked at his career stats and he's been a very good hitter his whole career. .291 career hitter with a .375 career obp.
June 15, 200520 yr Kenny might be willing to part with Damaso Marte based on the fact that he values Cotts as high if not higher than Damaso. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Fact? Sounds more like an opinion.
June 15, 200520 yr QUOTE(JimH @ Jun 15, 2005 -> 03:05 PM) Fact? Sounds more like an opinion. As of today, it is probably fact. three weeks ago it was probably opinion.

I dont think that KW doesnt like Marte. I was saying that he probably does have Cotts rated higher than Marte right now. Cotts has been spectacular lately, and Marte just the opposite. Last night I think Marte got pissed because Uribe booted that ball. He then had a horrible night. Cotts has been unflappable, for lack of a better Hawkism.
June 15, 200520 yr QUOTE(sox-r-us @ Jun 15, 2005 -> 07:36 PM) The deal does not make sense at all for the White Sox. Why should they help a team who coudl easily beat them in the post season by giving them something that is most difficult to get (pitching)?????? The Sox can get 3B upgrades elsewhere (Randa for sure and maybe even Castilla if the Nats do fall out of it). Hell they should get a SS like Nomar and move Uribe to 3B before tradign Marte away for Bill-I-had-one-great-year-Mueller This coming from a guy who started a trade for A-Rod, and a trade for Omar Vizquel thread? On the basis of, his opinion? And now Nomar? Unbelievable... Mueller has only had one good year? News to me. Since '96, his lowest OBP has been .333, while over his career he has averaged a .374 OBP. He's posted OPS+ of 140, 124, 120, 110, 109, and 106 -- only twice dipping below league average. Please... think a little before you type.

June 15, 200520 yr BTW -- Castilla is down to a .754 OPS, compared to Crede's .720. You're telling me that we should give up a guy like Sean Tracey for .034 percentage points of offense? Really? I'm not seeing it...

June 15, 200520 yr I'd throwup if Tracey was traded for Castilla. Tracey is a good solid prospect and could be the center piece of a deal to get a very good player imo.

I'm not really in love with Tracey, though it seems I might be -- but like you said, I think he can be a somewhat important piece to a bigger/better deal.
