Here are Cowleys Twitters from the last ten minutes.

 

Rumors that Jim Thome was traded have just been shot down by Ozzie Guillen. (5 minutes ago)

 

Hold the phone, Thome might be on the move, or at least thinking about waiving the no-trade clause. He's not commenting right now. (1 minute ago)

Wow. I wonder who is looking at him?

s*** I wonder what he got "or potentially" for him.

My money is on the Texas Rangers.

Seems like a Nolan Ryan type of move.

Cowley's latest...

About 30 minutes for Thome to decide if it's true ... tick, tick, tick ....

My money is on the Texas Rangers.

Seems like a Nolan Ryan type of move.

They have a s***-load of talent their. They're stuggling to find playing time for a lot of people. I'm thinking maybe the Rays.

Not a bad thought Thunder...

I think both teams could use his veteran leadership... even if they get his K's with it.

Thats the first team that popped in my head, though Rangers might make more sense IMO.

This makes sense to me, I'm shocked no NL team took a flyer on JD, I know he's been terrible for awhile, but some of the NL lineups (Giants) are bad

He Gone.

Wow, this makes sense. It still hurts though. I'll miss the hell out of him.

Yeesh, I didn't think it would but this actually hurts.

I'm throwing the Mariners in a Dark Horse.

Damn. I'll miss Thome. Hopefully Kenny laid the groundwork for him to go to a contender, and maybe to come back next year.

he was such a class act and I hope whatever team he goes to wins the WS

Thome was definetly one of my favorites since big Frank..

He is gone... now the question is where... it has to be a place he is confident in the chance to win.

I am still going with the Rangers.

What did the sox get back.. is the million dollar question? Someone should change the title soon too.

my hopes.

1. we sign frank for 1 game or something. that would bring loads of fans and it would be awesome to see his last game in a white sox uniform

2. we sign thome next year.

I am sure it isn't much for a month's worth of baseball.

I bet a low low prospect or 2. less than we gave for griffey for sure.

Is Flowers our new DH?

This sucks cause we obviously will get nothing for him, right?

Just a giveaway.

Thome is the only guy I actually wanted to keep.

 

Now we have no left handed bat again.
