Who would you guys say is the most credible reporter out there regarding trade rumors?

 

Nightengale?...Buster?...Rosenthal?

 

I feel like for the Sox Rosenthal/Morosi and Nightengale are the best to follow. I think they have a line into KW, I've followed them the past couple of deadlines and they always seem to be the national guys who cover the sox the most.

Rosenthal/Morosi, Nightengale, and Heyman are all pretty solid.

 

Yea Nightengale is def way up there on the list of guys I respect regarding the MLB.

Morel's health make it very hard to include him in any deal.

He's saying he is fine now, that his hips were misalined.

Haha I remember him from when I was over on the mlb whitesox boards. He always seemed ahead of anybody regarding Sox info.

I think his one source was probably warned to keep his yapper shut. That guy hasn't broken anything since the Frasor/Teahen thing.

MLB.com is reporting that the Rangers are not high on Josh Johnson at all. So with them not going hard at him & the Angels already with Greinke, maybe the Sox can sneak in?

Teams will line up now to get him. :lolhitting

Not sure if it was mentioned, but Peter gammons mentioned on MLB Network that the League deal will probably happen after the Mariners game.

 

Top 5 in Seattle

Rangers are not high on JJ because of the price I am afraid. I don't think the Marlins have a big issue with keeping him.

Most likely right. Its not a big deal either way.

 

Im still on the Putz & Bloomquist bandwagon!!! haha

Rosenthal seems like he has an inside track on KW or maybe KW trust him a little bit more.

If it's the Giants and Brandon Belt, they haven't removed him from the game.

 

Both the M's and Giants' games are in the 6th.

I think Rosenthal is the best, I think he has the most "inside" information. Gammons is still ok, but I think age is catching up to him and Heyman is also respectable.

Agree on all counts.

 

Rosenthal is plugged in more than anyone.

Watch Kenny get Felix & League for Jones, Castro, Molina, Mitchell and Floyd (BAL or TOR). Maybe even take back Figgins and Humber to pen/spot start.

Id like to jack his cell phone for a day & see just how much he uses it daily around the deadline.

 

Probably has to put it on the charger constantly lol

Seriously, I would be both surprised and not at all.

Bottom of the 7th in Seattle hosting the Royals. Why do they even play these games? MLB should institute a strict coin flip policy in the next CBA.

 

Edit: Brendan Ryan is at bat. Maybe he's our guy.

Edited by The Ultimate Champion

How cool would it be if after the Seattle-KC game each team announced a separate trade with the Sox, with one team sending over a UT player and the other a late inning reliever? Has that even happened before?

KW certainly has been talking to the Mariners an awful lot. From the Ichiro discussions & now this. You have to think Felix has come up in discussions, & didn't Tank hit an absolute bullet dead center for a homer at Safeco last year?....Their GM is probably still in awe over that.
