Chisoxfn Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 The more I think about it. Lee for Pos and Hardy or whoever. Don't know if they could get them, but get the prospects necessary (maybe the A's be interested in Spivey). Whatever it takes get the prospects necessary to pull a deal with the A's and then the Sox include Anderson or whomever else to make it work out. That would give Oakland a very good prospect (probably near top) from Mil, a top prospect from the Sox (Anderson) and then Beane's pick at one of the pitchers not named Bmac (or whatever the hell else he wants and yes if begged enough I'd deal Bmac too). Sox net Huddy and Pos and pretty much complete their offseason. On an unrelated sidenote, if the Sox deal Konerko and if they really are interested in Koskie, you could almost see them deal Everett for Koskie and I bet Toronto does that cause they get away from a long term deal.

Guest JimH Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 If it's the Milwaukee thing, I'd like to see a minor league arm come the White Sox's way in addition to Podsednik and Ginter. IF this stuff is true, it goes to show how valuable leadoff guys are, not to mention a guy who can steal 70 bases. Those guys are just not readily available. Ginter is a good scrappy ballplayer, I can see why the Sox would want him. There is still the question of SS though. Who backs up Uribe? Ginter has next to no experience at SS. I am getting ahead of myself here though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steff Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 I'm going to just hope its a huge deal for Ben Sheets. Please, PLEASE, PLEASE Oh hell.. not this again.. :rolly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 107 people are currently viewing Soxtalk right now, with about 50 in this thread... Do you think people are excited about the Sox right now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am getting ahead of myself here though. What types of arms does Mil have close to being ready? Obviously Cappelan but he ain't going anywhere. I just know they have some really good middle infield prospects and of course Prince Fielder. Don't know if Lee could net one of those really good infield prospects but if they could I could see Beane really liking the idea of a deal with the Sox. I think the Sox will keep Pos and move whoever else they get elsewhere. Call it a straight hunch. Still if the Sox got Ginter, Pos and a good prospect, plus went out and signed someone It could work out. But I like the idea of a bigger trade myself If they want Pos...just deal Crede for Pos and then swing an Everett for Hinske trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

santo=dorf Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 I'm going to just hope its a huge deal for Ben Sheets. Please, PLEASE, PLEASE That could explain why he would be so happy to announce something. From today's Sun-Times: The winter meetings will close this morning with the Rule 5 draft. It was during last year's Rule 5 proceedings that the Sox selected pitcher Jason Grilli, who now is in the mix for the No. 5 starting spot. But with the 40-man roster full, Williams said it isn't likely the Sox will participate in the major-league portion of the draft. ''Not unless a trade happens,'' he said with a wink. Last summer, the infamous Otis kept saying that the Sox were trying REALLY hard to get the real "Big Ben." Make me s*** my pants Kenny.

Chisoxfn Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 I can tell you one thing, if the Sox pick up Huddy or Sheets or someone else really good this board is gonna have 200 plus people on it for the first time ever Now all of us together....lets think Sheets or Huddy If were gonna wish, wish big Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy lucked out and to this day I believe he was completely full of crap. Yeah he came up with some really f***ed up three way deals involving the Sox, Red Sox and Rangers or Angels. It really didn't make sense how his "Boston source" knew whom the White Sox would give up to get some one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosMediasBlancas Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 Sheets isn't going anywhere. I agree, but that's the only scenario that I would even consider listening to the Brewers....especially if they want Lee. C'mon Kenny, don't do it.
