June 6, 201411 yr QUOTE (Ozzie Ball @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 09:48 PM) The quote was "$6m plus". Plus is the key.
June 6, 201411 yr QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 09:47 PM) The rumour is that Rodon's demand is $6m. That's only a couple hundred thou over the Sox slot. Mightn't need much savings. Mightn't need any at all if they get him at slot for a promise of a quick promotion. I said it at the time but that tweet should have been an indication he's negotiating with the Sox.
June 6, 201411 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 09:47 PM) Burdi, Reed or Stinnett? Burdi in the mix if they feel they can clean up his control.
June 6, 201411 yr QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 09:50 PM) Just draft a lot of pitching. That's how I'd build my organization. You can sign hitters and trade for them. Cubs believe the opposite for whatever reason. I agree with you.
June 6, 201411 yr QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 09:47 PM) Never enough catcher depth, especially when they develop terribly slowly. The Sox drafted 3 catchers in 2012, none of which have amounted to anything
June 6, 201411 yr QUOTE (BFirebird @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 09:51 PM) Cubs believe the opposite for whatever reason. I agree with you. If Foley is still there at #44 and the Sox can't sway him he's probably a Cub.
June 6, 201411 yr QUOTE (BFirebird @ Jun 6, 2014 -> 02:51 AM) Cubs believe the opposite for whatever reason. I agree with you. A J Reed and Cat Chase Vallot are off the board..... dang...
June 6, 201411 yr QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 10:54 PM) Glad Reed is gone. What's the wish list at this point? Any favorites?
June 6, 201411 yr QUOTE (BFirebird @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 09:51 PM) Cubs believe the opposite for whatever reason. I agree with you. I'm not a know it all baseball guy but following it this would be my philosophy. I can see taking a first round bat. But I'd be a pitching drafting motherf***er. Lol
