Soxplosion Posted January 15, 2003 Share Posted January 15, 2003 So maybe hes been an idiot in the past but now that he has done something amazing and cunning we should congratulate him. CONGRATS KENNY! First getting Colon and Nunez, a good high level IF prospect, for a couple of guys who had no real future with us or potential. Then he goes and signs Rios and Gordon, whos physical is pending. This is awesome! KW, the new Billy Beane I suggest we all incorporate that into our sigs...

MurcieOne Posted January 15, 2003 Share Posted January 15, 2003 "The architect of the deal was White Sox general manager Ken Williams, who pursued Montreal GM Omar Minaya once it became clear that the Expos would be trading either Colon or pitcher Javier Vazquez to reduce payroll." I love it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted January 15, 2003 Share Posted January 15, 2003 I'd say that we are just the beneficiary of Steinbrenner's goal to make sure that the Red Sox didn't get Colon. Regardless.....KW still looks good. I'm not happy about getting Colon....OK, maybe I am....but the reason I'm happiest right now is because of the fact that OSUNA IS NOT ON THE WHITE SOX ANYMORE! THROW A f***ING CELEBRATION EVERYONE! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then he signed one guy and is about to sign another to make up for the little that we did give up. This is a great day in White Sox history.

supernuke Posted January 16, 2003 Share Posted January 16, 2003 Well it looks like kw did a good job weather he did it himself or if cashman did it for him. I am still not willing to call him a great GM just yet though, unless he keeps this up all that was proven was that the sun will even shine on a dogs ass some of the time.

Thank god he is gone. kenny williams will get my appreciation when he improves on the team he inherited...that means atleast back to back division titles and advancement in the playoffs...with the team , payroll and minor league system he inherited , it should have been a cake walk to owning this division... as much as i like this trade..if we dont sign colon to a long term deal this is real only a one time shot at a world series and does nothing to improve the team for years to come.... id call this step one on a long road to recovery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cwsox Posted January 17, 2003 Share Posted January 17, 2003 fair enough HSC and chisoxfn, but I think the man is figuring out his job and may stary delivering as we hope he can, it just took him time to learn the ropes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hotsoxchick1 Posted January 17, 2003 Share Posted January 17, 2003 i just hope kw makes good friends with cashman and keeps holding onto his hand during trade talks.....where the hell was cashman and all his wisdom when schu was trying to tutor kw........s*** we could have had kw doing us better last season if we had cashman to mentor him ..... lmao..........
