Say what you want about Javy, but I don't like the sound of this.

Cool, great job on the updates everyone.

cubs officially the only player for peavy now huh....im gonna wait to see what we got in return, but im guessing im not going to like it., as i value javy's services more than most on this board and i think more than ozzie did...we have only 3 starters right now for next years rotation

We better get a better deal then f***ing Lillibridge and fatty Jo Jo Reyes.

HE'S BIG BONED! Plus, with Lillibridge we could stop bit%%ing about a leadeoff hitter.

The trade is now up on the Sun-Times website. Might as well change the thread title.

There has to be something else in the works..

 

Could it be Peavy?

Reyes isnt in the deal from what I hear.

 

 

And you may not like the deal straight up, but wait until KW spend the money saved....

If we are planning on having Lillibridge as the leadoff hitter... well, he'd be better then Owens, but he wouldn't be a good one.

Rosenthal saying Reyes is not in the deal...

 

Tommy Hansen?

Reyes isnt in the deal from what I hear.

You got any idea of what we're looking at?

I assume we will be taking on a contract from the Braves as they aren't the ones to usually take on a lot of extra cash without dumping some elsewhere.

 

And I hope dearly that you are correct and fatty Reyes isn't a part of the deal.

good point....ever since 2005 i always wait to see what KW does with the money...we'll see...could be saving up to spend in 2009/2010 offseason too

I want Mike Gonzalez. That's all I know.

 

Thread title updated.

Tommy Hansen?

Not likley. If we get Hansen for Javy, when the Braves wouldn't give him for Peavy then KW is the best GM ever.

You got any idea of what we're looking at?

A pretty good idea. Let's put it this way: We arent unloading money just for the hell of it at this point, we are making space for a purchase.

Gonzalez and some prospects sounds good. Better be pretty good prospects though.

If we got Mike Gonzalez, or even Rafael Soriano, as part of the deal, I'd be a happy man. I'd prefer Gonzalez, but he's a bigger injury risk. Also, if we got Gonzalez, that could/would make Jenks more expandable.

Rock, stop being so cryptic!

 

By purchase, do you mean a FA acquisition, or a trade acquisition?

a guy on WSI said espn is saying boone logan is in the deal as well

Right-handed pitcher Javier Vazquez has been told he's headed from the Chicago White Sox to the Atlanta Braves in a deal which is likely to be finalized on Wednesday.

 

Vazquez is flying to Atlanta on Wednesday morning for a physical.

 

A baseball source told ESPN's Peter Gammons that the deal will include four other players, including reliever Boone Logan, who would also go from the White Sox to the Braves.

 

Among the players expected to go from Atlanta to the Chicago organization are Jo-Jo Reyes, Brett Lillibridge and another top prospect.

 

Vazquez, 32, was 12-16 last season for the White Sox with a 4.67 ERA in 33 starts. He struck out 200 batters in 208 1/3 innings.

 

Logan, a left-handed reliever, was 4-4 with a 5.70 ERA out of the White Sox bullpen last year. He had a 2-3 record in 55 appearances.

 

Reyes was 3-11 with a 5.81 ERA last season for the Braves. He started 22 games.

 

Lillibridge appeared in 90 games at Triple-A Richmond in the Braves organization. He hit .220 with four home runs and 39 RBIs.

that could/would make Jenks more expandable.

 

Pretty sure Jenks is unable to expand anymore.

I'm listening to 1000, and watching ESPN, and all i've heard is that Javy's been informed of a trade.

Interesting. Rosenthal claiming Reyes in NOT in the deal. Gammons is saying he is.

Boone is in the deal as well according to ESPN.
