The Beast Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 If this is true, I'm looking for the White Sox to win 85+ games next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggsmaggs Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 All this seems like to much of a coincidence to be false. We have known that the Marlins were trying to get rid of Castillo and add a big-time hitter. We also know Kenny has a knack for trading our top prospects, so all this adds up to something reasonable.

AddisonStSox Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 Gosh, I'm putting my self through Jim Rome on the radio, just to see if they report anything. Isn't Jim Rome taped much earlier in the day. I thought this "supposed" report was recent. No need to listen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngelasDaddy0427 Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 But why give the Brewers our top prospect for someone who is completely useless to us. NO on ANDERSON! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickman Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 I DID NOT SEE IT ON ESPN ... Just had a buddy email it to me, he's out of town and I can't reach him. Was asking if anyone else saw it ... or heard it?? I did see the Jaret Wright bit from before (Gammons said they were close to a deal), but that's all I personally saw. Asking if anyone else saw this? Just got home, heard its not true Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rex Hudler Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 It wouldn't be a coincidence at all if Jim's friend saw rashid's post, rather than actually hearing it on ESPN News. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nokona Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 No doubt i'd do it. At least this deal gives up some youth. I can live with losing BA, it'll hurt but i cna survive, if we get someone young with expeirnece like Posednik. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chisox2334 Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 Free agent Jaret Wright and the White Sox may be close to a three-year deal, ESPN's Peter Gammons reports. White Sox GM Ken Williams isn't afraid to roll the dice. Wright doesn't figure to be quite so effective away from Braves pitching coach Leo Mazzone, but he could at least be a solid third starter for the next few years. Nov. 30 - 5:27 pm et thats from rotoworld and thats it about whitesox no team make that many moves at once Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 Well when the White Sox acquired Bartolo Colon they also quickly jumped in and signed Tom Gordon and another pitcher, I think it was the bouncer Rick White, but not positive on that. It was all on the same day cause I remember writing stories on FS in regards to them. On a sidenote, the more I think about it, the more this isn't happening. On paper it betters the team, even if they are giving up a little much for Lee. Anyway, I would love to see that Wright and Dye part come true cause I think both would be great additions. Plus with them two on board, the Sox now have all the flexibility they need to work out another deal invovling either Garland or Konerko/Lee. Just add Dustin Hermanson to this cause I think he'd be a nice pickup out of the pen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
