SSH2005 Posted December 14, 2005 Author Share Posted December 14, 2005 (edited) Wow, did anyone just hear that short clip of an interview with KW regarding Garland on ESPN 1000? Kenny said that Garland and his agent are intent on testing the free agent market after 2006 and that the Sox won't try to offer him any more contracts. Then the interviewer asked KW if the Sox will try to offer Garland a contract when he is officially a free agent and KW said, "I don't know if it will even get that far." Sounds like Garland is a goner. Edited December 14, 2005 by SSH2005 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JimH Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 So I take it Levine didn't have any information regarding possible trades involving Garland, besides for Tejada? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No, you are correct, he didn't. He said the White Sox could offer the most flexible package for Tejada, and said if Baltimore wanted strictly to go young, the Cubs would have a shot with all the prospects they have. Silvy once again tried to steer the conversation to the Cubs, nothing new there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest JimH Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Man are you running for Politics? Dodge and misdirect.. Question is very simple.. Who was the best player in baseball at his position for the 2005 White Sox? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No actually I hate politics, like that running nonsense about KW you were running last year. You still can't construct a logical question. The best player in baseball is a lot different from the best player at his position for the 2005 White Sox. Do you mean, "who was the best position player for the 2005 White Sox?". If so, my answer would be Pierzynski. Uribe 2nd, Crede 3rd, that is if we're talking defensively. I will ask myself a question now. "Who is the best all around SS in baseball?" Tejada is the answer. I will ask myself another question. "Why am I debating baseball with someone who was so obviously and incredibly misguided and wrong before and during the 2005 White Sox season?". The answer is, I have no clue as to why. Please see your signature about Williams. Repeat as necessary. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 I dont know if Garland ever felt that Chicago was his true home, if you think about it. He had to hate it when Manuel was the coach, the guy had no plan for Garland and no faith in him. Then he almost gets traded for Erstad, gets killed by the press for not caring, and doesnt complain about anything. I think he enjoyed his time here, but I wont be surprised when he goes elsewhere, either through a trade or free agency. I never thought he would stick around past his free agency years anyways. I would like to see him put together a "contract-year" type of season, however. I think keeping Garland next year would be very beneficial for the Sox in 2006, but you cant let that kind of talent walk. I dont think his value will be any higher for the Sox to unload him though.

maggsmaggs Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 As much as I love Tejada, I think Kenny should just step down and think to himself we are the world champs. Trade Garland and get some relievers and prospects and call it a day. McCarthy was a Sox fan growing (he loved Frank Thomas) he is guy who would re-up with us. keep him Kenny.

SSH2005 Posted December 14, 2005 Author Share Posted December 14, 2005 (edited) Can you please list the FA pitchers next year? Please explain how Garland would be the best on that list, thanks <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Garland's age and durability would be a huge reason that he'd be at the top of the list. Garland will be a 27 year old pitcher that has never had a history of injury (knock on wood) when he is a free agent. An injury-plagued and older A.J. Burnett got a 5-year, $55 million deal. What do you think Garland is going to get? Edited December 14, 2005 by SSH2005 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steff Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 QUOTE(JimH @ Dec 14, 2005 -> 08:48 AM) This is hilarious, people are saying don't get the very best SS in baseball because we have to give up a SS and a pitcher, and also we have people who are afraid of payroll like it's their own money. Unreal. This is Miguel Tejada, people. What's unreal is that you didn't see this coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uribe is a better value, he is young, he is cheap, he is a leader, he is the field general. I would rather have the team we have now, and Uribe than the team we would have with Tejada, bar none. Hu...?? He can't even hold a conversation with 95% of the team and staff. Good grief..

Why oh why would we want that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
