Milkman delivers Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 06:46 PM) Unless AJ breaks his neck... NOT A CHANCE. He was asking what team would trade for Kendall. He wasn't sayin the Sox would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now, assuming Oakland doesn't want him in the division (Texas)...about the only contender I can see right now that could use an upgrade at catcher would probably be Arizona. That is barring a major injury to someone like Posada, Varitek, or Mauer. Almost everyone at the top of their division has a firm catcher who's either entrenched or hitting pretty well. Yankees - Posada BoSox - Varitek Orioles - Lopez (on DL) Braves - Estrada Marlins - LoDuca Twins - Mauer Angels - Molinas Us - A.J. Cardinals - Yadier Molina San Diego (I don't know the guy, but he's hitting .299 with 6 home runs) Texas - Rod Barajas and Sandy Alomar Jr. Arizona - A rookie named Snyder who's hitting about .220. I could also see the Dodgers making a shot at him, if they want to stay in the race in the NL West. Edited June 3, 2005 by Balta1701 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitetrain8601 Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 Question is for this year(which KW is going for) is Crede & B-Mac better than Chavez. It's questionable. Who comes up to pitch for El Duque on his next breaks?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramon Hernandez is the Padres' catcher (he used to be on the A's, they either traded for him or picked him up via free agency). The D-Backs also have Kelly Stinnett as their veteran catcher, I think. And I doubt they even have money to spend after what they did in the offseason. I don't think Kendall is going anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The D-Backs do have that Stinnett guy, but he's got all of 1 at bat this season. Yeah, I agree Kendall not going anywhere unless someone gets hurt. Especially given how much he's been struggling to start the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBAHO Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jun 3, 2005 -> 07:57 AM) In a second, I would actually deal Anderson and Sweeney for Chavez. We still have OF prospects behind them as well. But they're not on the level of Anderson or Sweeney. I would deal Anderson instead of B-Mac (I'd still prefer to keep Sweeney over Anderson even though he's showing no power whatsoever down at B-Ham) and give up Crede, but no way do I give BOTH Anderson AND Sweeney.

Caller this is Onstar how can we help you Someone said that Neal Cotts was going to start a game, he is pitching better. I have shortness of breathe, and think I just vomitted in my mouth. I may have shat myself also. Dont worry take a step back Neal Cotts cannot start a game. That experiment is over. Thank you. Onstar is always here for you. Even when crazy Cotts starting thoughts appear. omgwtflol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sox-r-us Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 No way in hell should Kenny trade BMac for overpaid Chavez Too much risk with Chavez's recent #s, and with no pitching depth, we are screwed come any injury to our pitchers (2 of whom are known for it) Finally, we have 5 solid pitchers + 1 decent back up, and people want to go back to the Diaz, Munoz etc etc days????? Pitching is ALWAYS a premium. Never give it up easily. And never for someone with huge question marks like Chavez (0.218 = no roids?????) I am a huge Kenny fan but I hope common sense prevails and he simply looks elsewhere if Beane wants BMac for Chavez. Kenny can pretty much give up anyone else from our prospect list but not a solid pitcher close to playing in the majors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Side Fireworks Man Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 How about Crede and Fields for Chavez? The A's get rid of an underperforming, big contract 3rd baseman for a serviceable stop gap third baseman plus a third baseman of the future. They free up money for other young players. The Sox get a guy they hope returns to Gold Glove, .280 30HR form, which he has consistently done in the past. If the A's insist on pitching, how about Crede and Sean Tracey? No way do I give them BMac in this deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
