Kempers Posted January 15, 2003 Share Posted January 15, 2003 I have not really believed this s*** would happen, but this is the first somewhat credible rumor I have seen. http://www.nytimes.com/2003/01/15/sports/b...&partner=GOOGLE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted January 15, 2003 Share Posted January 15, 2003 Tribune Chicago Tribune is also reporting the 3 way deal between Yankees, Expos, and White Sox. It also says it hinges on the White Sox getting Hernandez, and then trading him to the Expos with Liefer for Colon. An executive with another major-league club said Tuesday that the Sox and Montreal Expos are close to agreeing on a deal for Colon. Another major-league source said it could hinge on general manager Ken Williams obtaining excess starter Orlando Hernandez from the Yankees and sending him to the Expos, with New York paying most of his salary. Seems multiple GM sources are reporting that this trade is definitely in the works, if we can get Colon at the price of Leifer and a few prospects to the Yankees, or even possibly a reliever, it would be quite an addition.

YASNY Posted January 15, 2003 Share Posted January 15, 2003 The comment in Roger's column about picking up Flash Gordon is interetsting. One, he's a pretty good pitcher. Two, he is probably going to free up someone in our bullpen to send to the Yankees. My guess is that it will Marte, though I hope not.

Molto Posted January 15, 2003 Share Posted January 15, 2003 I think Osuna will be the guy to go to the Yanks. Yanks Get: Osuna, 1-2 minor leaguers (from us) Expos Get: Hernandez, Liefer, Cash (from the yanks) White Sox Get: Colon good deal I think.

cwsox Posted January 15, 2003 Share Posted January 15, 2003 If that is the deal (and the minor leaguers from us are no one that I want to lose) then that looks like a good deal indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kempers Posted January 15, 2003 Author Share Posted January 15, 2003 I'd still much rather have Vasquez, but nothing has even happened with this deal yet so I guess we'll have to see. Depending on the minor leaguers, it could be a decent or very s***ty deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hold2dibber Posted January 15, 2003 Share Posted January 15, 2003 I'd still much rather have Vasquez, but nothing has even happened with this deal yet so I guess we'll have to see. Depending on the minor leaguers, it could be a decent or very s***ty deal. As long as the minor leaguers don't include Honel or Rauch, I'd say it would be a damn good trade.

If we even get him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
