March 30, 200917 yr It would of taken an arm like Russell, probably packaged with a low-impact guy like Broadway. Which i gladly would of given.
March 30, 200917 yr QUOTE (Kalapse @ Mar 30, 2009 -> 02:59 PM) No, not really. I agree, but if MacD starts off the season well, that may change. I hope KW jumps at any chance to trade him, and we don't assume he's "fixed".

I hope KW jumps at any chance to trade him, and we don't assume he's "fixed". He is with us for at most one season. If he pitches lights out, he might be able to work himself back in to being a type B free agent.

Only 4.156 days of service going into 2009, 16 days short of 5.000 so he won't be able to reach the 6.000 required for free agent eligibility until April of 2010 at the earliest.

It would be miraculous for MacDougal if he wasn't non-tendered at the end of this season.

He's either going to be non-tendered if he pitches even OK this year, or if he pitches like he can, we will trade him. There is zero chance that MacD is a White Sox in 2010.
