probably busy talking to agents/other teams

Because as Geddy Lee sings, the more things change, the more they stay the same.

I can understand this, but haven't the GM's of other teams been on there?

Hahn works triage and brings legit deals to the Hahn, JR, Bell, KW quartet for evaluation...as I understand it.

Kenny is giving Rosenthal a ton of s*** right now....good to see

The other GMs have the authority KW has. Hahn does not. I wish they would let him do his job. I agree there is no need for KW to be there. Make Hahn legit and have him do the interviews.

I'm told there is absolutely zero chance of the Diamondbacks trading both Cahill and Skaggs to #Angels in any deal.

What about?

Kenny just said they are working on something that will get the fans excited

No they don't. If so, explain Theo.

Calling us offseason losers and not reporting things correctly

So hang onto your butts guys....Kenny said something is in the works and apparently its going to excite the fans

It was good natured banter. Pretty funny.

Not a lot of substance in that interview, however.

YES! Juan Uribe!

Theo does the interviews. Hoyer doesn't. Hahn is in the same boat.

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Dec 10, 2013 -> 10:49 AM)
Honestly, I thought KW made that comment in jest, just part of the back and forth with Rosenthal. There was emphasis on "and you don't know anything about it."

 

Ken didnt know....but apparently Keith Law did :lol:

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Dec 10, 2013 -> 10:53 AM)
Yea, that's kind of what I've been wondering. I'd think we'd need a solid prospect in that deal as well.

 

He put up nice numbers in the minors, but hasn't done much in the majors. I thought he was speedy guy, but apparently not many steals?

So the Cubs hired Theo Espstein to do interviews, and let Hoyer run and do whatever he wanted? lol.

Are the Sox secretly in on the Matt Kemp trade talks.. Would Kemp excite the fan base??

I seem to remember people talking about him having insane speed when he was in the minors. I could be wrong though. He was also like a .350 hitter across all levels of minor league ball. He's hardly played at the Major League level yet.

#LAAngels are in in on hector santiago, confirmed. @keithlaw said could be part of trumbo-skaggs w/ eaton going to #chisox

Scott Merkin ‏@scottmerkin 23s

 

Heard this morning White Sox were close on something and that could be the three-way deal mentioned by @keithlaw

Scott Merkin ‏@scottmerkin 26s

 

As I said last night, the White Sox are not in on Juan Uribe. Entertaining guy, great teammate. Doesn't fit their plan right now

I was thinking that maybe we're still in on Headley, and we're using Santiago to get us a piece for the Padres which would make it possible to pull that off without including Q.

 

Kemp is VERY KW-like though, but so is Crawford unfortunately. Crawford would have to come with a massive amount of cash and little talent while Kemp might cost a bit & still we wouldn't get a load of cash back.
