southsider2k5 Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Anyone know the status of Danny Kolb from Milwaukee? He keeps putting up decent #s IIRC. Is he a possiblity? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wise Master Buehrle Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Steve Finley would be great but apparently he has a no-trade clause... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFan1 Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Doesnt Kolb have a bunch of saves???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsoxs1 Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 I know how much Peter Games is full of it but this an exert from his chat happening now. With Freddy Garcia in White Sox uniform, and the possibility of resign him. What do you think should be the next move of the White Sox with Magglio Ordoñez? Peter Gammons: (2:43 PM ET ) There are rumors that Ordonez may be traded this week to Atlanta for Andruw Jones. That would get the Braves out from underneath the last three years of Jones' contract which runs through 2007. Ordonez is still a great player and will be one of the most important players on the market this winter. Whether or not he gets traded remains to be seen, but Ken Williams did say last night that he's working on another major trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wong & Owens Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 I dont think I like the Atlanta deal, neither Jones nor Ortiz sit well with me--more of a hunch than anything. Well, Jones' contract for one.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxFan1 Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Basically, we let them rent Maggs for 1/2 a year, give them Rauch while getting a veteran pitcher who throws a lot of innings, has won 21 games, been to a World Series, and gives your team a chance to win everytime he takes the bump PLUS the best CF in the MLB for 3 more years who will give you 25/100 and a Gold Glove or 2.

We won't give Mags $12 mil, but we'll pay Jones $15 mil? Something doesn't make sense there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YASNY Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 We won't give Mags $12 mil, but we'll pay Jones $15 mil? Something doesn't make sense there. You got your numbers reversed. Plus, Maggs wants 5 years and Jones is signed for only 3 more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrandoFan Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 SP Randy Johnson CF Andruw Jones (as long as it's for Konerko and prospects, not Maggs) C Brandon Inge (not a big priority) Sox take on at least 5-6 mill of Unit's money (not counting deferred here) Jones makes 4 Mill more than Konerko Inge is cheap That's at least another 10 Mill that JR would have to add to 65+ Mill payroll. 75 Mill is more than than anyone ever expected he would spend. And most likely he won't unless we literally sell-out the stadium in every game in July and he wisely decides to capitalize on the momentum. Of course.....even if JR is willing to add so much salary........Unit might not wanna go anywhere, Atlanta might laugh at Konerko and Detroit might not want to deal with us.

SuperSteve Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 LOCO buddy! Hey, it says wish list, and how many people wish about Brandon Inge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrandoFan Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Hey, it says wish list, and how many people wish about Brandon Inge? He's having a semi- break-through offensive season (away from Comerica especially) and has very good defensive tools. Makes about 350 K, give or take a few pennies. As a converted SS, he has deceptive athleticism and average speed - faster than most catchers. He is stuck behind Pudge, JR on the Detroid depth chart.

beck72 Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 C Gregg Zaun [33] is hitting .307 with an .399 OBP for Tor. He's a switch hitter and could platoon nicely with Sandy. He's also thrown out 45% of would be basestealers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homerball Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 before we go over-paying for a catcher i say we wait a bit and see just how sandy/davis/burke workout, for all we know davis might only need a change of teams. Also should KW focus on signing maggs for something long-term before he tries to pull off another trade? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Joe Mauer. The Twins are out of the race and this guy is really nothing more than a bust.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JimH Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Just for reference, the last time the Sox traded with anyone in the AL Central was ages ago. They simply don't trade with one another. I know it's been since '87 or '88 with KC, and I think 12 years with the Tigers. I'll have to look it up, but they very seldom deal with one another.

Flash Tizzle Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Also should KW focus on signing maggs for something long-term before he tries to pull off another trade? Signing Maggs to a long term deal has likely reached its final stages. Either Maggs excepts a contract extension (on our 'deferred payment' terms ), or KW will ship him to Atlanta. Does anyone invision Maggs finishing this year, in a White Sox uniform, without an extended contract? Beyond the All-Star break, will KW continue to regurgitate his comments about "Contract negotiations are on-going with Magglio?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Magglio has a career 2nd half (say, 1110 OPS and 75 RBI) with the Sox and helps Frank lead this team deep into postseason, that would be awesome. Get Andruw Jones with Konerko and prospects if possible. Atlanta used to love them some Ryan Klesko - and Paulie is a 'stache away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
