December 9, 201411 yr Interesting. I am curious to see who goes with Semien but presuming Semien is the centerpiece and the other name is lesser, you can sign me up all day as being thrilled. Next step sign him to an extension and sign us a closer. I prefer K-Rod to Robertson. Presume we can get K-Rod on a shorter term deal.
December 9, 201411 yr QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 08:15 PM) What Dempster just described is not an ace, it's whatever superlative is used to a player who has a season 2-3x that of what Clayton Kershaw and his measly 7 WAR produced last season. I realize he doesn't know he just suggested that, but saying a single player will add "xxx" amount of wins to your team is just asking for WAR to be used to evaluate your assertion. I doubt he gives a s***

An outfielder is just as important if not more than a closer/setup man IMO.

December 9, 201411 yr QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 10:13 PM) What do we think Billy is having for dinner? Sharkfin soup? That's all I got. Hopefully not a Danish.

If you're basing that on the one tweet from one random dude Rick Slattery @rickslat123 Multiple Sources: Jeff #Samardzija to White #Sox for Marcus Semien, Tyler Danish and Trey Michalczewski. #wintermeetings #Athletics #shark I don't know if I'd take that as gospel

December 9, 201411 yr QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Dec 9, 2014 -> 04:18 AM) Wait, then why would Danish tweet that? Maybe he didn't know yet?
December 9, 201411 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 10:18 PM) Maybe he didn't know yet? But it was 5 minutes ago...
December 9, 201411 yr If those are the 3 going for Samardzija, hopefully they know they can extend him.
December 9, 201411 yr I have no clue who Rick Slattery is. Just telling you what I was told. I am pleased the Sox got Samardzija, and I think they will lock him up too.
December 9, 201411 yr QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 10:18 PM) Danish AND Semien? Sounds steep. If that deal is correct, I can see why bucket said some might not like it.

December 9, 201411 yr QUOTE (SoxAce @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 08:20 PM) If that deal is correct, I can see why bucket said some might not like it. Sign the Shark to an extension! Do it!
December 9, 201411 yr Let's not overvalue our prospects. A legit #2 for Danish/Semien is a relative small price to pay. See Russell, Addison. Edited December 9, 201411 yr by staxx
