Loaiza21 Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 Saw this at WSI. A rumor says that this is being talked about: White Sox trade Ordonez and Konerko for Nick Johnson and Livan Hernandez. I'd do that. Nick Johnson is a stud. And adding Hernandez as the #4 doesn't hurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CubsSuck1 Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 My opinion, but a terrible move if it happens. Sure we cut payroll, but will it really matter with the talent we lose? Ordonez is not worth a #4 starter and someone that I'd say is far from a stud. If Johnson is a stud, then Ordonez must be God Almighty. But hey, thats how messed up the money situation is...

sox-r-us Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 Why the f*** does everyone hype Nick freaking Johnson so much? Yankees never let anyone good go somewhere else Look at their freaking trades over the years Nick Johnson is freaking mediocre at best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yankees never let anyone good go somewhere else Look at their freaking trades over the years Nick Johnson is freaking mediocre at best I agree 100% Nick Johnson is nothing special thats for sure. Also the expos traded Vasquez for payroll relief and now their gonna take on 22 million LOL give me a break!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yankees never let anyone good go somewhere else Look at their freaking trades over the years Nick Johnson is freaking mediocre at best He hit .280 15 50 or so last year....numbers very similar to that. However, his .900 OPS speaks for itself. His OBP was .422. Johnson is not overhyped, in fact, I'd go as far as to say that he is overlooked. He is going to be a hell of a player someday.

Patrick_Bateman Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 The rumor that seems to be building some steam is the 3 way deal involving the White Sox, Dodgers and Yankees. Yanks get Kevin Brown, Dodgers get Frank Thomas and the Sox get Jeff Weaver. Again, only a rumor I've heard. I don't like it. Trading a guy who's entire career has been with the Sox for a guy who has openly admitted that he hates the Sox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest williestokes Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 This is a trade just to trade. People want something to be done even if its completely moronic. Trade Ordonez for Johnson and a 4th starter? WSI must be worse off than I thought... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KipWellsFan Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 Nick Johnson is far from mediocre. Maybe he's had some injury problems but he's got great patience and power at the plate, and is a good 1st baseman defensively. I think someone that says Johnson is overrated is wrong.

Chisoxfn Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 Waever is a Joint Smoking overpaid Dick SAY NO TO WEAVER That Weaver deal is even worse. I don't want to even think about giving up Konerko for Weaver and this is coming from one of Weaver's bigger supporters out there (Which doesn't necessarily say much).
