Heads22 Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 How about Garland, Cotts and a prospect? Depends on the prospect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Zito is definitely more proven, I understand how people would want zito more, but Pavano has been the guy I've wanted for a while, everytime I watch the guy pitch he impresses me more and more, I just think Pavano is an absolute stud, but you can't go wrong either way. Zito is younger, already has a 20 win season and a Cy Young under his belt, and is a lefty we can use to compliment Buehrle in the rotation. I'd take a 25 yr old Zito who is pitching in the AL over a 28 yr old Pavano who is pitching in the NL in a heartbeat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was talking to qwerty, I wasn't talking to you. :headshake Anyways, I said I understand where you guys are coming from, just to me pavano is a better pitcher, it's jmo.

santo=dorf Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Depends on the prospect. Well, I'll be the first to tell you that I don't follow he minors as most of you do, so I don't know who's has a lot of value and is expendable. Maybe that McCarthy Dude, or that guy related to Mike Sweeney, or that OF we have who also pitches for the Royals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Depends on the prospect. I'm still wondering if Billy Beane would take back his former pitching prospect.. I wouldn't mind giving them Munoz/Diaz etc.. though as far as pitching. Don't know what they'd want to have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knightni Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Pavano has the potential to fall into mediocrity. But Zito ALREADY fell into mediocrity. Frankly, I would take either though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDsDirtySox Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 I think we can forget about getting Pavano. I have heard he wants to stay in Florida, and Florida wants him to stay. The Marlins traded Brad Penny, with the idea that Pavano will be resigned. While I'd love to have him on the Sox, I am sure he will be staying in Florida.

qwerty Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 And if he doesn't he WILL end up with the Sox.... The Red Sox I actually think he will go to the red sox before he stays with the marlins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santo=dorf Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 The Red Sox Why do you say that? They have a ton of holes to fill. Does anyone think Pedro would sign with the Yanks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was traded for Pedro once... I see him replacing him again... Pedro is going to get a dose of the 15-year-old-who-just-got-dumped-by-the-hot-girl-and-now-has-to-make-it-look-like-he-doesn;t-really-want-her-anyway-Boston-Media, just like Nomar and others have recieved.

JDsDirtySox Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 After looking at this article, I Guarantee Pavano doesn't come here. He wants a pitcher friendly park and a good defensive team. That is not our identity. I still say he stays in Florida. http://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/basebal...-sports-marlins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CWSGuy406 Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Here's my team (aquisions in bold): C-Davis/Burke 1B-Konerko 2B-Hairston/Harris Platoon (Hairston aquired in a trade.) 3B-Bill Mueller SS-Juan Uribe LF-Lee CF-Rowand RF-Drew/Catalanatto (Not both - just one.) DH-Thomas (Everett, Gload, Perez, among others, lining the bench.) Rotation: Garcia Buehrle Clement Contreras Garland (Rotation is - meh, I dunno. I'd rather have a lefty in it, but the only even slightly good lefty on the market is Odalis Perez. If this team has real balls, go after Pedro. Obvious.) Bullpen: Adkins/Diaz Cotts Politte Marte Shingo Kline Mota (If available for a trade. Mota to Shingo would be almost as good as Mota to Gagne. Hell - a healthy Marte to Mota to Shingo is - nasty, to say the least.) Thoughts? I know it's a long thread, but I'm interested in anyone's input on this.
