June 24, 201213 yr QUOTE (Baron @ Jun 23, 2012 -> 08:54 PM) I believe that was Bucket actually who was hearing that. That seems to be the amount people are going to give up. I dont think Matt will be involved in the trade. You're absolutely right, my bad.
June 24, 201213 yr QUOTE (Frank_Thomas35 @ Jun 23, 2012 -> 09:17 PM) You're absolutely right, my bad. No worries...Ill let anyone know if something changes in this situation. Im betting something happens soon(tonight).
June 24, 201213 yr Baron, you sure they're not going to send down/DL another player on their roster in order to activate Cook?

Expect Youkilis trade to be done by then to make room. https://twitter.com/TradeDeadliner Thats where I got it from. I was thinking of that earlier but I have no idea who else they would send down. Aaron Cook is for sure coming up though. He was suppose to start today in Pawtucket.

June 24, 201213 yr QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 23, 2012 -> 09:28 PM) If he started today then why do they need to bring him up tomorrow? He missed his schedule start because he is being called up. As for why I have no idea.He is being brought up though. Edited June 24, 201213 yr by Baron
June 24, 201213 yr QUOTE (Brian26 @ Jun 23, 2012 -> 09:01 PM) The best part of this, if you look at the Twitter feed, is dumbass Chris Singleton responding "legit" because he misunderstood the tweet too. Or maybe he also likes the restaurant, I mean he did play in Chicago.
June 24, 201213 yr With Middlebrooks going 3-3 with a HR tonight, one would think Youkilis is gone by tonight.
June 24, 201213 yr Author Well, with Cook being brought up that pretty much confirms that the Red Sox aren't asking for Major League players in return.

Maybe we'll send them Hudson in a mano for mano deal. Nyuk nyuk. We better not send them a name prospect! They want to get rid of the guy. You wait, we'll offer them DanksII or somebody good.

June 24, 201213 yr Jon Morosi @jonmorosi #Pirates still interested in Kevin Youkilis, but team was not confident in its chances of landing him as of Saturday night, sources say. https://twitter.com/jonmorosi
June 24, 201213 yr Pete Abraham @PeteAbe Youkilis update: Indians, White Sox and Dodgers appear to be the three primary teams. #RedSox https://twitter.com/PeteAbe

It's dragged on for basically two days with people reporting us being very interested. When KW makes a move he pounces before any really has a chance to break it. I have a feeling we are being used as leverage in the media and in reality we may not be all that interested.

We'll find out shortly if one actually wants Youkillis.
June 24, 201213 yr Ken Rosenthal @Ken_Rosenthal Sources: #Indians “longshot” for Youkilis. #Dodgers minimal contact with #RedSox today. Signs point to #WhiteSox, #Pirates or another club. ----- This reeks of the Red Sox putting out false information to get us to pay more.

If the offers are close (or if the Dodgers are really serious) he'll wake up a Dodger. For all we know, every other team could be a bluff. Stare em' down, KW.

June 24, 201213 yr I'd pass on him right now. This never works out well when it becomes a bidding war for a guy past his prime. Sox will offer too much and we'll be screaming about losing Mitchell/Danks, whomever, in a couple years. I swear I can picture Kenny overpaying again for this guy. Just say no, Kenny, unless they'll take Crain or Hudson off our hands. Or Lilly or somebody like that. Don't give them somebody like Flowers or Mitchell!!!!! Please no. Make it Crain for Youk straight up. Edited June 24, 201213 yr by greg775

June 24, 201213 yr He's batting .174 this month. I'd rather stay away from him, but in Kenny we trust amirite?
