August 25, 201213 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 25, 2012 -> 01:55 PM) What exactly did he say? That he didn't think the sox were done and if there's a player needed Kenny will make a move, something to that extent
August 25, 201213 yr I can't imagine the Sox have the bullets in their minors to get Upton, and Viciedo wouldn't get through waivers to them.

August 28, 201213 yr Buster Olney @Buster_ESPN One GM said there are basically two pricey and relatively healthy Ps who might be available for little return: Buehrle, Matsuzaka,
August 28, 201213 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 28, 2012 -> 09:40 AM) Buster Olney @Buster_ESPN One GM said there are basically two pricey and relatively healthy Ps who might be available for little return: Buehrle, Matsuzaka, 3 years, $48 million isn't little return for Buehrle.
August 28, 201213 yr QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 28, 2012 -> 10:18 AM) 3 years, $48 million isn't little return for Buehrle. That is "free to a good home" territory.
August 28, 201213 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 28, 2012 -> 10:21 AM) That is "free to a good home" territory. Maybe if Miami picks up that last year of the contract.
August 28, 201213 yr QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Aug 28, 2012 -> 10:48 AM) Maybe if Miami picks up that last year of the contract. Or at least 1/2 of it. Heck, the Dodgers are looking for a SP, they could get Buehrle to waive his no trade by giving him an extension.
August 28, 201213 yr Grabbing Buehrle would probably be the least negative effect a big acquisition could have on the clubhouse. The opposing possibility would be the media circus that would follow Dice-K here.
August 28, 201213 yr QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 28, 2012 -> 10:18 AM) 3 years, $48 million isn't little return for Buehrle. I'm assuming he means in terms of a return of prospects to the Marlins. Saying that, no way do I add a mulit-year deal if I'm Kenny Williams. They are going to have a difficult time determing the best course of action this off-season, they don't need a new large contract on their books making the decisions for them.
August 29, 201213 yr Buehrle's return could be the type of move that gets fan to come back out in bunches and would make the clubhouse excited.
August 29, 201213 yr QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Aug 29, 2012 -> 12:43 AM) Buehrle's return could be the type of move that I see you make those double posts quite often, everything ok? connection problems?
August 29, 201213 yr QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Aug 29, 2012 -> 01:02 AM) I see you make those double posts quite often, everything ok? connection problems? New internet has been acting up lately. I've tried to catch them, but sometimes they slip through the cracks. Like, it will say I haven't posted when I go to check, then I post again and it's a double. DAMN YOU INTERNET.

August 29, 201213 yr Has anyone heard of any players being claimed? It would be interesting if the Sox claimed anyone, but I kind of doubt it.
August 29, 201213 yr QUOTE (Baron @ Aug 29, 2012 -> 11:54 AM) Felix Doubront was claimed off waivers Can't imagine he would get past the Tigers, all the way to us.
August 29, 201213 yr I don't care how fiscally irresponsible it would be, Mark Buehrle coming back to the Sox would make me masturbate and give us a much better chance of winning a World Series title this year. Also, Jake's gone this offseason anyway, so 2013 would look better, too.

August 29, 201213 yr QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 29, 2012 -> 10:55 AM) Mauer is on waivers What's his contract status? I'd be really surprised if the Twins would actually trade him.

Also, Jake's gone this offseason anyway, so 2013 would look better, too. I agree. Buehrle coming back would be good on so many fronts...except the money front. But if the Marlins would eat $10-$15 million...
