Dick Allen Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 (edited) BP said Marte and McCarthy is the offer for Huff. They didn't mention Baez. They also claim to have a source that says TB likes Boston's offer for him better, and not to be surprised if TB does nothing. Either LaMar really is out of his mind, or McCarthy's stock is not nearly as high as previously thought.

I'd hate to think they would hold that against a 21 year old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3E8 Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 I wonder how the possible acquisition would affect Konerko. He would quickly realize this is his last year as a White Sox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maggsmaggs Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 I am prepared for dissapointment. I believe the Sox will do nothing major, thus can't be dissapointment if we stand pat. But, if we do something I am happy. I can't lose today, unless of course the sox lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VAfan Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jul 31, 2005 -> 05:18 AM) Definitely not. He is a quality arm with goof stuff but to overpay for him would be bad. Baez and Huff for MBac, Sweeney, and Tracy??? Yes, No? Thank goodness you aren't the GM. I wouldn't give up BMac straight up for Huff and Baez because I don't want "Blown Save" Baez at any price. Huff is a decent player, but he has no position. He's a 5-position backup. Tracey, fine. Not BMac and not Sweeney. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beck72 Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Offman reported on the score that the sox were just interested in Huff, no Baez, and BMac wasn't in the offer. TB is very familiar with the sox farm system. Maybe Josh Fields would play a big part. I can't see them wanting an OFer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way we're getting him without giving up McCarthy (not that I'm complaining). This GM did get Kazmir for Victor Zambrano last season!

You're saying that even though Jermaine Dye and Paul Konerko have better power numbers, and that Scott Podsednik is one of the best lead-off hitters in baseball, you'd still prefer Aubrey Huff to any of em?
