The_Godfather Posted July 24, 2004 Share Posted July 24, 2004 I know we have willie and Uribe playing 2nd right now but with mags and thomas seeming to be gone for the season Why not Grab Boone for next to nothing. We could lock him in at second move willie over to CF and Rowand over to RF. Boone has hit 330 5hr 19 rbi's since june 17. He would provide power and great D at 2nd base to make up for the loss of power from Maggs going down. Just a thought, I know he had a bad 1st half and all but he was playing through injuries and family problems during that time. I think he would be a great pick up and would cost us nothing in return maybe a second tier minor leaguer thats it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightni Posted July 24, 2004 Share Posted July 24, 2004 If a good portion of Boone's salary was taken by Seattle, I wouldn't mind him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Man Posted July 24, 2004 Share Posted July 24, 2004 If a good portion of Boone's salary was taken by Seattle, I wouldn't mind him. Agreed. He is making 8 million this year, and with that kind of money for a rent a player just won't cut it. They should look into Raul Ibanez. He has decent contact, and decent power and can play LF while Carlos DH's. He is half the salary Boone is and has been having a way better year.

AngelasDaddy0427 Posted July 24, 2004 Share Posted July 24, 2004 Willie Harris is NOT A CF... HE IS BETTER AT SECOND BASE... WE DON'T NEED BOONE... END OF STORY... When they release Ichiro then let us know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qwerty Posted July 24, 2004 Share Posted July 24, 2004 Puhleeze Jeckle.. Harris is a bench player compared to Boone. Maybe in the last three years or so but not this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted July 24, 2004 Share Posted July 24, 2004 This isn't a bad idea. Harris can move to CF with Rowand moving to right field. Boone is a FA at the end of the year and if the Sox get healthy you can decide which of Boone/Harris to play everyday. If the Mariners would do it for a mid level type prospect, assuming the Sox are willing to pay maybe 2 mill of the remaining portion of the contract.

qwerty Posted July 24, 2004 Share Posted July 24, 2004 I am nearly positive that he goes to the yankees, it only makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
