T R U Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 Can someone fill me in on this Trade rumor? I saw someone post something like this having to d owith Boston DLing Brad Thomas... Just wanna know what it is, thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSteve Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 Um, I think it is ARod for Manny Ramirez and cash...then Nomar for Mags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLAK Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 The talk show rumor is Kelly was going to be in a late spring training deal, but the deal was quashed when somebody (read Kelly himself), said he was injured. The Sox brass got PO'd and now Kelly is out there for the highest taker. He's only pitching in AAA to show he's not hurt. Unfortunately in one complete inning at Charlotte, he's given up 1 earned on 2 hits with a walk and a wild pitch. So I imagine any takers are still skeptical.

SuperSteve Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 BTW, who is Kelley? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSteve Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 I have heard BellHorn's name come up. That is who I have heard too...wouldnt happen till Nomar is back if he was the one...did hit a HR lefty yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CWSGuy406 Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 I have heard BellHorn's name come up. Bellhorn is a switch hitter, he's especially good from one side of the plate (I forgot which one it is, left side or right side). He also has a good eye at the plate and is able to post a .350+ OBP. Plus, he can play three or more positions including Third, Short, and Second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wise Master Buehrle Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 So basically Kelly nixed this himself. Yikes, I'm worried that something bad could come from this... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkokieSox Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 What do you mean?? Because he supposedly said he was injured to screw the Sox over and inhibit his value. I like Wunsch, but that's pretty s***ty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a talk show rumor, so it could also just be a big load of crap. I fell for the Frank Thomas hates Ozzie rumor so now I take anything like this with a big grain of salt.

WillieHarris2 Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 i read something in the paper the other day about ozzie not wanting to call up kelly because they have enough guys in there bullpen who can get the job done or something. it sounds like there just trying to screw him over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd much rather have a healthy Wunch than let's say Shingo or Koch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillieHarris2 Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 Yeah, that's the way i look at it. I'd much rather have a healthy Wunch than let's say Shingo or Koch. ya im much more comfortable with wunsch then i am with shingo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSox_Sonix Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 ya but do we need THREE lefties in the pen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishmookie Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 the way ozzie uses the bullpen i think wunsch could contribute. i've always thought he was a solid reliever and im not too excited about what's going on with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
