Jody Gerut is a good player.  I like that deal for the Pirates.  Give him every day playing time and I think the Pirates will be quite pleased.  He hasn't been as good this year as he was last year, but he's a good player.

 

Jesus Christ, I was about to type the same thing. Stop involving common sense! I get to post less! :P

 

But really, Gerut allows the Pirates to get younger at the same position. Production wise Gerut is probably going to put up similar numbers to Lawton (sans OBP) and provide better defense.

 

But sure, if we're all going to be b****y about not getting anyone today what better way to whine than to think Matt Lawton is Roberto Clemente reincarnated. :lol:

i heard on the SC update the guy saying that Chad Tracy was traded to the White Sox(I think it was white) for PTBNL

Get the hell outta here. That is BS. For a PTBNL??? Come on....

*perks ears*

 

If the Sox get Tracy I'll be so freaking happy. The guy is a hell of a player and is only going to get better.

 

I like him as much as Overbay and the nice thing is he could also slide to 3rd if Crede went down.

 

My guess is the Dbacks would want bullpen help.

No, there isn't.  If other teams aren't willing to make a deal you can't get pissed at Kenny.  Afterall, this team has the best record in baseball and while they aren't playin as good as they have as of late, they are still a very very good ball club.

 

If you can get into the post-season anything can happen.  I got faith in my Sox  :drink

 

You can't be mad at not overpaying. And I'm going to hold out criticism until I see where this team ends up, but they base their philosophy on picking up pieces at the deadline. If the prices for these players is unreasonable, this philosophy must change. If the White Sox don't win the WS, I don't want KW to tell us the annual,"you know I'm not afraid to be agressive" line for mid-season acquisitions. A 13.5 game lead does a lot to calm the nerves.

Gerut's not exactly a young player anymore. His bat speed is awful now, and he's a step slower than he was before the injury. I'll be shocked if he's ever an average MLB hitter again.

Actually, I think today was a pretty good day for the Sox. The Red Sox, Yankees, Angels, Athletics and Twins did almost nothing to improve themselves. I would have liked a move if it was out there, but since it wasn't, its nice that the other World Series contenders didn't make major improvements either.

I'll give Josh the benefit of the doubt here. But were you listening on the radio or what?

 

Someone else would of heard it plus it wouldn't be for a PTBNL. Chad Tracy is someone that would cost some decent prospects and maybe even a major league reliever.
