July 31, 200520 yr QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 31, 2005 -> 01:16 AM) Yeah, I'd love beaz in our pen don't get me wroug. I just don't think he's worth a Chris Young or Ryan Sweeney. Definitely not. He is a quality arm with goof stuff but to overpay for him would be bad. Baez and Huff for MBac, Sweeney, and Tracy??? Yes, No?

July 31, 200520 yr QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 31, 2005 -> 01:19 AM) I do that in a heartbeat, wouldn't be enough for Lamar though. Lets say he offers us Huff and Baez for BMac, Sweeney, Tracy, and Fields? To me, that is a bit steep.

I dont think its that steep when u consider its for a shot at the World Series...also Huff is signed for one more year i believe, well he's an arbitration guy, so we wouldnt be renting a player

I am not 100% sure on either's contract situation but it would be a risk I would take...
July 31, 200520 yr DANYS BAEZ, 28 AGE: 27. B/T: R/R. HT/WT: 6-3/225. BORN/LIVES: Pinar Del Rio, Cuba/Miami. HOW ACQUIRED: Signed as a free agent in January 2004. CONTRACT STATUS: $3.5-million in second year of two-year, $6.5-million deal; Rays hold $4-million option for 2006 with $1-million buyout. PROJECTED ROLE: Closer. DID YOU KNOW?: Baez converted 30 of 33 save opportunities. His .909 save percentage was fourth in the American League and seventh in the majors. I found this via google. Sox could keep Baez in 2006 for 4 million.
July 31, 200520 yr Well take this with a grain of salt since it's the Ny Daily News, actually that probably means it won't happen: While the Sox chose to sit Ramirez vs. the Twins last night at Fenway for unspecified reasons, Tampa Bay was nearing a deal that would ship Aubrey Huff - one of Boston's primary acquisitions in the Ramirez blockbuster - to the White Sox.

Well, he is a FA after this season and I am sure that getting off a s***ty team like the D-Rays and coming to a good team like the Sox would make him happy and hopefully he would re-sign. I believe Huff has 1 more year on the contract after this season so that should be fine. In this case, I say KW goes for it!

That's good to hear, but just a word of warning to people here. If we do acquire Huff and/or Baez, it's going to cost a lot more than people think it will. Just like the Garcia trade, there will be some player involved in the deal that we never expected. Personally, I think Gio will be the surprise. My prediction for the trade is Huff and Baez for McCarthy, Gio, and Sweeney.
