Brian Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 I voted "No" cuz Rowand is one of our only .300 hitters. I would trade Borchard in some package in a second. I'm borderline on Garland for a year and a half of Randy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T R U Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 HELL NO... Rowand and Garland are NOT prospects, they are solid everyday players... There is no way you give away two YOUNG everyday players and some prospects for someone who will be here 1 maybe 2 years... That is the dumbest thing ive seen, if we trade them Garland and Rowand and some prospects... We dont need RJ that bad... I am fine with seeing Buehrle, Garcia, and Garland in the playoffs... We dont need RJ, we need another bat now... Ide trade prospects to get a bat... I like our pitching... and I really dont want to get rid of Garland and Rowand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aboz56 Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 Just say no to trading Garland. A Row is iffy, but if he continues playing this way, I wanna keep him. And a big NO to trading Anderson or Sweeney as a part of any deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 I do think it is hilarious how all of that 1917 talk disappeared once real players got talked about. This isn't a surprise folks. You don't trade the big Unit for spare change and used gum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aboz56 Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 I think the Yankees will increase their offer to Bubba Crosby, Gabe White and 30 million and land the Unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuskyCaucasian Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 Let me get this right.... Trade an everyday outfielder who will hit you around .280 if not better Trade an average pitcher who would be a good #4, potential to be #2 Trade a prospect or 2 for an aging pitcher who will only be around for another year hmmmmm............................. NO!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuskyCaucasian Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 I think the Yankees will increase their offer to Bubba Crosby, Gabe White and 30 million and land the Unit. Bubba Crosby and Gabe white + cash for Johnson and they want Rowand and Garland from us? That is highway robbery. Bubba Crosby = Timo Perez Gabe White (PS: he is on the Reds) = Mike Jackson Cash = 2 prospects. Perez, Jackson, and 2 prospects for Johnson, i'd do that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalapse Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 I think the Yankees will increase their offer to Bubba Crosby, Gabe White and 30 million and land the Unit. Ya, it's kinda hard for the Yankees to trade Gabe White to Arizona when he's not even on the team, he's in Cincy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHarris1 Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 Potential #2... Prospects... I am tired of hearing about the damn future. With RJ we have RJ-FG-MG-EL-SS which is far better than FG-MB-EL-JG-SS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, you are correct, but it was a JOKE, as annointed by the 30 million dollar comment, which would be disallowed by MLB because it would be too large of a cash transaction.

We dont need the Unit that bad, we need a bat more than we need a pitcher I really don't think we need a bat that badly... Ordonez...Check. Lee...Check. Konerko...Check. I'd put that 3-4-5 right with anyone, especially with the year Paul is having. That is enough power and RBI capabilities right there. And if we do get a bat, it needs to be a "grinder" who can get on base and take a walk. If we can get runners on, those guys will give us enough production (paging Uribe and Harris to get on base) We are just in panic cause we don't play well out West. Once we get back to the Cell, things will start rolling again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHarris1 Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 (paging Harris) (Sorry Willie cannot come to the phone right now he is busy not starting.) Is it just me or was Willie hitting well and all of the sudden got benched and sucked since then? Without regular playing time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once we get back to the Cell, things will start rolling again. We still got a few games out west though, we have 11 more games on the west coast left on the schedule, with most of the games being played in texas. 2 vs Oakland 6 vs Texas 3 vs Anaheim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YASNY Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 We desperately need a GOOD lefty RBI producer. Aboz's $30 million comment was so out there that green wasn't needed. The sarcasm was freaking obvious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
