Rowand44 Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Aug 29, 2005 -> 11:09 AM) I would think if they are discussing the team and possible personel moves, it would mean a lot that he wasn't mentioned. People shouldn't waste their time listening to Bruce Levine. He is the ONLY person who has this deal anything but dead. Ken Rosenthal was on the Fox pre-game Saturday and he said there was no chance Griffey was going anywhere. His track record has been far better than Levine's. I agree about Bruce and Rosenthal, I'm not listening to Levine about anything, I also don't think anything is going to happen. However just cause Ozzie said publically that him and Kenny didn't talk about Griffey doesn't actually mean they didn't talk about him.

Another bat for Cleveland although if Levine said it, he probably is going anywhere but Cleveland. Do you know that any one of the first 6 hitters in Cleveland's line-up would be leading the White Sox in hitting?

RDriesen Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Aug 29, 2005 -> 11:59 AM) I see RDriesen lurking... Whats the story on the Cincinatti side? Are you hearing anything that we arent hearing? Whats your feel on whats gonna happen(if anything) my feeling is, he isnt going anywhere. i dont think he wants to. people dont seem to understand it, but he loves playing in cincy and loves his teamates. thats important to griffey, hes not your typical superstar. does he want to win a WS, OF COURSE. but i just dont see him leaving cincy for the sox. the only way he ever leaves is if its to a team thats almost guaranteed to win it all or at least be in the series. i know, that no one is a guarantee, but i think you know what i mean its not even being talked about really. its talked about by callers on radio but only based on what they hear from chicago media.

Â Â Good pitching can beat good hitting, but our offense still needs to score runs. If we fail in the offseason its not going to be because of our pitching and defense, it will be because some pitcher shut this offense down. Kenny hopefully realizes this and gets a bat.

Kalapse Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 Can someone show me proof of any kind that Raul Ibanez has cleared waivers? I have not seen his name on any list of players that have cleared, if he has not cleared waivers by now it would be impossible for him to go through the 3 day waiver process and clear by the 31st. Â People keep bringing up his name yet there's no evidence that he would even be eligible to be traded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
