July 26, 200520 yr I'm still 50-50 on this. If we could do BMac/Marte for Burnett, have him extend, then do Ando/Tracy for Overbay......whooooooooot!

If we could do BMac/Marte for Burnett, have him extend, then do Ando/Tracy for Overbay......whooooooooot! 1) he's not going to extend 2) don't need to overpay for a 3 month starter that's not that much better than any of our guys to begin with.
July 26, 200520 yr Hmm, put me on this as long as it's not a cheap bat. Griffey, Overbay, Soriano I'm down with. I want middle of the order. And someone who's not constantly pulling. I'm alright with Burnett when he decides he's open to signing an extension with whatever team trades for him.

I'm alright with Burnett when he decides he's open to signing an extension with whatever team trades for him. overbay or griffey are the 2 i had on my mind when creating this. We need some fear in the heart of this order, right now we have none.
July 26, 200520 yr If the sox don't get Burnett, I'd like to see them get a bat like Overbay, a UTL IFer [vizquel is the ideal so Uribe can be the UTL guy but that's not happening], and a bullpen arm like Erye or Villone. No way can the sox get Burnett and all these other peices. So, you could count me in
July 26, 200520 yr I'd like a bat or a bullpen arm before a starting pitcher. That being said depending on what we'd be giving up, I'm in no way opposed to dealing for Burnett and as everybody knows I love the idea of Schmidt.
July 26, 200520 yr My dream trade would be Sweeney and Tracey for Overbay. Though I do know that is unlikely I would be beyond happy if we could pull it off.

July 26, 200520 yr QUOTE(AnthraxFan93 @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 06:21 PM) I been on the Overbay bandwagon since this past offseason. . Sign my up sucka! This would be so sweet if it happened 1.) Because he improves our lineup a lot 2.) Because I traded for him in MVP Baseball 3.) Because he improves our lineup a lot
July 26, 200520 yr I would like the following in order if possible: 1) Overbay 2) Griffey 3) Wagner 4) Huff 5) Vizquel 6) Schmidt 7) Burnett

July 26, 200520 yr Allow me to throw a counter-opinion. CWS 05 vs LHers: .291/.820 CWS 05 vs RHers: .251/.717 CWS 04 vs LHers: .261/.789 CWS 04 vs RHers: .270/.790 CWS 04 Aug&Sep: http://baseball.espn.go.com/mlb/teams/batt...Type=2&type=reg Now consider the A's: OAK 05 vs LHers: .282/.777 OAK 05 vs RHers: .258/.724 Here's my point. I think most of us would agree this year's bats in the 2nd half have more potential than last yr's. Do you really believe that the CWS will finish .251/.717 vs RHers before the season is done?
