July 27, 201114 yr QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 10:38 PM) This would be a good move. Frasor will help lessen Crain's load. The bullpen should be nails. I don't know what people reastically think the Sox could get for 2 months of Jackson, and they get rid of Teahen's contract. Beautiful if its true. And who replaces him in the rotation?

I don't know what people reastically think the Sox could get for 2 months of Jackson, and they get rid of Teahen's contract. Beautiful if its true. I don't believe this trade would be made on Tuesday if that were true. Kenny would hold out til Sunday if he was going to make a move like this.
July 27, 201114 yr QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 03:38 AM) That trade is sickeningly bad. For Toronto, yeah. That's the only reason it doesn't make sense.
July 27, 201114 yr QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 10:39 PM) And who replaces him in the rotation? Fellow named Humber.
July 27, 201114 yr It better be a great prospect? I can't believe what I'm hearing. Dude, it's 2 months of Edwin Jackson and Mark Teahen. Who cares who the prospect is? Frasor is a damn good relieve
July 27, 201114 yr QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 10:39 PM) For Toronto, yeah. That's the only reason it doesn't make sense. Unless this allows them to take on salary there is no way this move helps this team
July 27, 201114 yr QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 10:34 PM) Nonsense. WTF does TORONTO want with Jackson? WTF do we want with Frasor? My goodness, Jackson (and his draft pick) for an aging middle reliever. The prospect better be elite.
July 27, 201114 yr Rumor had it earlier in the day that Toronto is interested in Ubaldo. Does this possibly help them get him?

July 27, 201114 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 10:42 PM) You mean 2 months of Frasor? This is nonsense. If it's true, I am ready for this regime to be through. But I'd bet about $5000 it's bs.
July 27, 201114 yr If this is true, and the prospect is not a good one, KW needs to be fired NOW. This team is going nowhere. Why would you trade starting pitching for relief pitching unless you are getting Drabek back as the prospect. Edited July 27, 201114 yr by Elgin Slim
July 27, 201114 yr Trading a solid starter for a 6th inning reliever when you do not use relievers in the 6th inning is stupid
July 27, 201114 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 10:42 PM) You mean 2 months of Frasor? No, I mean 2 months of Edwin Jackson.
July 27, 201114 yr Author QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 10:36 PM) I don't believe this for one f***ing second. There is too much of a market out there for EJax right now. So don't believe it.
July 27, 201114 yr So they're using one of their better trade chips in order to....dump salary, and really not improve this team at all? Cool. I have to think Jackson has more value going to a contender.... no? This trade is a salary dump, nothing more. If it isn't BS, that is. Edited July 27, 201114 yr by Paulie4Pres

July 27, 201114 yr QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 10:44 PM) FWIW, Frasor is from Oak Forest, IL. Who f***ing cares? We don't need a reliever.. if the prospect is solid, whatever ill take that and a comp pick for Frasor.. but so far this looks like s***
July 27, 201114 yr He coulnt rip it down in 2007, what makes you think he would rip it down this year. He only knows how to push all in. I await a change in manager and GM so we can stop with short sided trades every f***ing year.
July 27, 201114 yr QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 09:45 PM) I'll take that bet. If I had a clue who you were I would do it in a heartbeat.
July 27, 201114 yr QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 10:45 PM) Well, this is a soxtalk exclusive if true. To say the least. Could very well be, considering one of the guys getting moved is from around here... Wouldn't doubt it if he told one of his buddies back home he's coming here.
July 27, 201114 yr QUOTE (T R U @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 10:46 PM) Who f***ing cares? We don't need a reliever.. if the prospect is solid, whatever ill take that and a comp pick for Frasor.. but so far this looks like s*** God forbid telling ST he's from the Chicagoland area. I send my deepest and most sincere apologies, boss.
