July 30, 201015 yr QUOTE (JPN366 @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 05:34 PM) A world shocker that hasn't been mentioned doesn't come to mind. If it's a lefty power bat, I'm at a loss for whom it may be. it could also be a RHB with decent splits, Kotsay is terrible, like 74 ops+ terrible, so if the guy is right handed but good, it's an upgrade
July 30, 201015 yr Has Cowley confirmed Kenny still working on this 'big' deal? I can't imagine this deal being Dunn (done?) lol.
July 30, 201015 yr QUOTE (scenario @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 05:33 PM) Love to listen to him talk about football. Very knowledgeable. Hate to listen to him talk about baseball. Completely clueless but acts like he knows what he's talking about. He's been like this since he first started. He might be the most arrogant person I have ever listened to on the radio. As for the "wow" player, I have to agree with IceCreamPants (aka SHIPPS) suggestion the other day in Ichiro. That one actually seems possible and WOW! to me....
July 30, 201015 yr Bernstein is an arrogant dick.. if you don't agree with him you're an idiot.. and Boers all he does is joke about gays.
July 30, 201015 yr The Dodgers reportedly had issues with Kemp's attitude earlier in the year. I see the Dodgers moving him before Ethier.

I can't imagine this deal being Dunn (done?) lol. people were saying he was on the Score about 1/2 hour ago saying yes, he's still working on it and his twitter said don't confuse silence with inactivity

July 30, 201015 yr QUOTE (JPN366 @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 05:37 PM) Who's a power hitter with a shaky future contract situation that nobody has brought up in trade talks? Manny, not saying I think it would be a great move, but RH and would cause a media stir Edited July 30, 201015 yr by SoxFan562004
July 30, 201015 yr QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 05:38 PM) Yeah I think Kemp could be a possibility. Kemp would definitely be shocking. I would be the happiest boy in Las Vegas if Kenny pulled that deal off...
July 30, 201015 yr The lefthanded bat we are about to acquire is Scot Podsednik!! I didn't know how to make this in green, but bring back Scotty Pods. Or Dunn.

July 30, 201015 yr QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 05:38 PM) Yeah I think Kemp could be a possibility. I don't think he fits the "shocker" and "immediately considerably better" tags though though he's been better lately.
July 30, 201015 yr QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 05:39 PM) It'd shock the s*** outta me. Shocking, but not on the level that was stated.
July 30, 201015 yr QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 05:40 PM) I'd bleep myself if we got Kemp. How is he doing this year? Was one of the most disappointing players in the 1st half.
July 30, 201015 yr QUOTE (JPN366 @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 05:38 PM) I don't think Kemp would really shock anybody. I'd be all for Ian Stewart though. It might not shock people, but it would make you say WOW....I don't know how you wouldn't say WOW if suddenly Matt Kemp was our starting RF...
July 30, 201015 yr QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 05:40 PM) I'd bleep myself if we got Kemp. How is he doing this year? Not great. He's doing better as of late, but his owner questioned his desire which is never good.
July 30, 201015 yr I'll finally give you guys the low down. The trade which will potentially shock the world IS.... Drum roll please..... scroll down. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Actually not a trade at all. They are hoping to sign Free Agent, Trevor Caesar. ---- That would be me. Kenny has been blowing up my phone pleading for me to come on board for 10 Million over the rest of this year... but I don't know... seems like they can offer more. I have a career batting average over .500
July 30, 201015 yr QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 05:40 PM) I'd bleep myself if we got Kemp. How is he doing this year? http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/k/kempma01.shtml OK, would be better than Kotsay, but again that's not saying much.
July 30, 201015 yr QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 05:40 PM) I'd bleep myself if we got Kemp. How is he doing this year? He's having a down year. Especially in the field (which where the criticisms of his lack of effort stems from). But he's 26 and a legitimate 5-tool talent.
