August 3, 200520 yr QUOTE(Steff @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 11:38 AM) A debate is useless.. i like konerko, it's just a running joke started by mike. i have bad influences
August 3, 200520 yr QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 11:39 AM) Weird thing is that the article says the Sox plan to get Sean Burroughs this week, too. More Padres guys that can play 3B!
August 3, 200520 yr QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 04:39 PM) I'm confused by the wording. Who 'agreed' to it? Who vetoed it? Sox agreed, Grif would have agreed, Cincy vetoed is what I got from the article.
August 3, 200520 yr QUOTE(GBlum27 @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 11:38 AM) People that ripped KW for no impact moves should seriously STFU There is no way in hell KW was sitting on his hands at the dealine. Anybody that believes has a picture next to the word idiot in the dictionary.
August 3, 200520 yr QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 10:40 AM) Welcome to trading deadline, part deuce. NOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
August 3, 200520 yr Author QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 10:39 AM) I'm confused by the wording. Who 'agreed' to it? Who vetoed it? KW and the Reds GM agreed to the trade, but b/c it involved money, he had to get permission from ownership, who vetoed it.

August 3, 200520 yr And we kind of went blind over a couple tidbits in that first post.... Another nugget from Nightengale is that Padres plan to trade Sean Burroughs to the Sox this week for Borchard. End of the Timo era? One Final nugget is that Nightengale says the White Sox believe Thomas' new ankle injury is career ending.

August 3, 200520 yr QUOTE(ChWRoCk2 @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 10:38 AM) aw man, i hope we can still get griffey, we could still really use a bat He will definitely clear waivers. Any team claiming him would have to assume his entire contract. Maybe this trade can be revisited in a couple of weeks if Junior can stay healthy. It would make a lot of sense for both teams. The White Sox could really use his bat and his presence in the line-up.
August 3, 200520 yr QUOTE(YASNY @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 11:42 AM) Problem? Yea.. I think that was ignorant. JMO though.. don't mind me.

That really pisses me off. Anyways, if nothing big happens through waivers for us, think of all the $$ we have for the offseason. However, that is subject for this winter. GO SOX OF 2005

Maybe this trade can be revisited in a couple of weeks if Junior can stay healthy. It would make a lot of sense for both teams. The White Sox could really use his bat and his presence in the line-up. Well I think this attempted move pretty much sums up Thomas's future with this team, career ending or not.
August 3, 200520 yr QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 11:39 AM) I'm confused by the wording. Who 'agreed' to it? Who vetoed it? From the sounds of it the baseball people agreed to it (GM, VP of Op etc) and the actual ownership vetoed it.

August 3, 200520 yr QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 11:36 AM) rowand called this? if you've ever seen him in gamethreads, he can't even call the fact that konerko sucks And ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww Konerko SUCKS. Even the Reds ownership knows that. Why do you think they traded him in the first place?
August 3, 200520 yr QUOTE(tonyho7476 @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 11:44 AM) Lets get it on! Don't get your hopes up. This is nothing more than a minor disagreement. I'm done. I respect Steff too much to get into a knock down drag out with her.
