DBAHO Posted June 15, 2005 Author Share Posted June 15, 2005 QUOTE(Dam8610 @ Jun 15, 2005 -> 02:27 PM) Didn't we give away some prospects to help the Mets get Kris Benson last year, thus keeping him from the Twins? No that was a straight swap b/w Pittsburgh and New York IIRC. You're probably thinking of the 4 team Nomar Garciaparra deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it was a false report as this would have been a form of collusion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was referring to the false rumor at the deadline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texsox Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 They should replace Jay with press releases from JR's office. Then Sox fans could safely read that page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowand44 Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 I give Mariotti 2 more years tops in this city. The sox keep drawing more and more fans in there "inferior complex" and because of that attendance is going to be within reach of 85-90 mill within the next two years and then he won't be able to b**** about how people don't come to the park because it's inferior and that JR is cheap, guess what take that stuff away and he has nothing to write about. It sucks to be you Mariotti. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
