July 31, 200817 yr Only player I could think it would be is Nick Swisher. Doesn't make sense to sell low on him though really, when he's got a manageable contract.
July 31, 200817 yr The only guy on the Sox who I would describe as a "OF/DH type" is Dye, and there is no way they are trading him for pitching help.

July 31, 200817 yr Dye is going nowhere...he's one of the few guys in the lineup who has brought it every day of every game. He is not replaceable...Thome, PK, Swisher...deal them if you get the offer. Dye? Hell no.
July 31, 200817 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 02:50 PM) They're referring to Brian Anderson Why would BA be consider and OH/DH type?
July 31, 200817 yr QUOTE (kwolf68 @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 07:51 PM) Why would BA be consider and OH/DH type? My brother heard the Sox are talking to the Marlins, who are interested in Brian Anderson

July 31, 200817 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 02:52 PM) My brother heard the Sox are talking to the Marlins, who are interested in Brian Anderson The Marlins have always liked BA and he'd be a great defensive fit for the chasm that is their center field
July 31, 200817 yr Author QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 02:52 PM) My brother heard the Sox are talking to the Marlins, who are interested in Brian Anderson Blair mentioned the Marlins as part of the discussions as well...
July 31, 200817 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 02:52 PM) My brother heard the Sox are talking to the Marlins, who are interested in Brian Anderson That really makes sense, because the Marlins were in on him last year I think. I could see Tankersley being of interest to the Sox...he is a nasty lefty who hasn't really settled in with Florida yet. He's probably a future closer. Don't know that I'd go BA for him straight up though, because he hasn't really excelled consistently at the major league level yet and I don't know that you could really count on him for this year, which is what any trade Kenny makes would be subject to.
July 31, 200817 yr QUOTE (winninguglyin83 @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 03:11 PM) That's it. nothing but a fossil to play CF???? The paperwork has to be filed by 3pm CST. The deals leak out over the next hour or so as they get processed. there will be more deals announced, probably not whitesox related.
