it has already been firmly established that we will not be acquiring furcal. if anyone, the flubs may, for a rediculous amount. for some reason, i think the cubs have already, or someone correct me if im wrong.

Mueller as a backup for Crede, sure, although I don't think that's likely. But dealing Crede for Furcal, no thanks.

That looks horrible, plus there is an entire forum dedicated for these suggestions: http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?showforum=40

Nothing like trading a category the Sox lack depth in(with that little depth the Sox do have being a playoff hero and arguably a Chicago legend) for a category the Sox have the most depth in.

 

If anything, the Sox would trade Marte and a prospect or two for Pierre...but at this point, I'm not exactly sure what the Sox are looking at doing in centerfield.

We have no need to spend that kind of money on the need for speed. We have speedy OF options in our own system - at least one of Anderson, Owens and Young will likely be better than Pierre in the near future. And Owens, and possibly Anderson or Young, could hit in the 2-hole.

No the Cubs have not already acquired him...and there are sources saying their $100 million offer to him never happened.

$100 to Furcal would be the stupidest move ever, and would easily be much worse then the BJ Ryan signing.

I will say it again, given all circumstances, I would rather have Uribe playing SS over Furcal.

Maybe if you factor in contracts. If the money doesn't matter, give me Furcal.

I Like it.

 

Crede needs to be traded if he doesn't fire Boras. I like sending Crede and marte to FLA for Pierre.

 

I dont like it however, if Furcals Price tag is indeed 100M ( which I won't believe until I see it.)

 

But, If we can sign Mueller and Trade for Pierre, I would do that.

Factor in EVERYTHING, attitude, contracts everything. uribe is FAR more valuable to the sox than furcal would be.

I agree with you then.

It looks nice (two of the best arms in th league make up your left IF), but Furcal is going to be way overpaid. Uribe is a great SS and doesn't need to be moved. It would be nice to find some room for a speedy player on this team, but Furcal is not the answer.

Crede needs to be traded if he doesn't fire Boras. I like sending Crede and marte to FLA for Pierre.

 

one, generally (not just you rangercal), why is there such a hatred of crede's agent? what will boras do that other agents wouldnt?

 

two, i have to strongly disagree with you on the crede AND marte for pierre. for lack of a better analogy, we would be greasing up and bending over on that one.

The White Sox won't deal with Scott Boras, that's all you need to know.

All I need to know is who would play 3rd base. That's a ridiculous trade proposal.

Given up on Bobby Abreu already have we?

I wasn't even looking at the trade proposal that was made, I was just answering his question.

Smart move.
