dasox24 Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 Menke.......(however you spell it), Restovich and Cuddyer according to Harold Reynolds predictions. I f***in hope that's the deal that's gonna happen b/c like DBAH0 said, that's way overpaying for Benson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 Trade a stud defensive 1Bman, probably a 20-30 homer guy in Cuddyer who has all kinds of versatility(can play 1B, 2B, 3B, LF, and RF), and a potential 20-30 homer guy in Restovich for a rent-a-player. Great plan...seriously, go for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aboz56 Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 KRIS, not Chris, Benson, will get OWNED in the AL. Bring him on. He's got a hot wife though. Don't believe me? Anna Benson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YASNY Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 Do they not realize he is gonna do pretty damn bad in the A.L., he is not exactly cy young in the national league. I really hope you are right. But I don't think so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 Holy s***, I hope they give away that much for a rent a pitcher... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBAHO Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 From the Pittsburgh Post Gazette, "The Twins remain the front-runner in the Benson trade talks, but they have not signed off yet on the player the Pirates want -- outfielder Jason Kubel, a Class AAA center fielder who is hitting .351 with 21 doubles, 7 home runs and 41 RBIs in 58 games at Rochester and is considered ready to play at the major-league level. If the Twins agree, the trade likely would be completed quickly." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wedge Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 So by comparison, did we still overpay for Garcia? And consider that Benson will probably get around $10 mil/year as a FA... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is what MN pays for Benson, hell no. They will have given up way more, for less of the season, without a contract extension, for a guy who isn't nearly as good.

Rowand44 Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 And consider that Benson will probably get around $10 mil/year as a FA... I highly doubt that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nokona Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 I propose a trade. Mike Jackson for Anna Benson. She'll be the visiting team's bat boy and we'll go undefeated for the rest of the year. Although, i think we need to up the offer a bit =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
