White Sox trade Scott Linebrink to Braves

Featured Replies

Cofield was one of six players in the Braves organization who played in the AFL. Apparently he has a good body type and nice velocity. Cox has liked him dating back to 2007/2008.

 

This isn't a bad deal, especially if there is no salary involved. I wonder what he did in the AFL.

Dude, give it up.

 

I was joking.

I imagine Kyle Coefield could have a Jon Link/Jeff Marquez- like impact on this team. And i love it.

I am walking around the office with my pants off.

He pitched one inning in the AFL.

No and that's his point.

So no impact?

Neither of those two did. They're Coefield-esque filler for two other salary dumps.

Sox must have sent at least a couple million, right?

So how is that different from any other day at work?

I'll be curious as to what our bullpen situation looks like this year. Right now, we have:

Closer - Thornton

Set-Up - ??

MR - ??

MR - ??

MR- ??

LR - ??

 

D.J. Carrasco was non-tendered yesterday. Bring him back?

Link wasn't that bad, he had a great season in 2008.

Exactly. :D Coefield could kick me in the nuts this spring and i'll still be happy that we freed up Linebrink's money.

I'm sure we're sending at least some $$$, but it still helps.

Santos is in there somewhere.

Santos for sure and I'd say there's about a 95 percent shot that Sale is going to be in there as well.

In the minors...

Good point.

I wonder what kind of effect this could have on Gavin. I remember hearing that they were close to the point where Gavin looked to Linebrink as almost a spiritual mentor.

Yeah major brain fart on Santos. I intentionally excluded Sale.

Thus the name, "BigSqwert."

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Dec 3, 2010 -> 12:25 PM)
I actually think Teahen could have a Mark Derosa-esque effect off the bench for this team.

Unfortunately, two of the guys he would back up, Dunn and Quentin, both hit righties better than lefties, so his value would be minimal there. Also, with Vizquel on the bench, there is absolutely no need for Teahen to ever play 3B. So that really only leaves 1B as a decent bench option and you have Dunn available for those few occasions. The way this team is currently constructed, there's little reason to keep Teahen around.

I know, but he contributed successfully. Marquez has just been bad.
