nitetrain8601 Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 White Sox Miguel Tejada Update Alright, I've got the goods on the current state of the White Sox's attempt to acquire Miguel Tejada. Remember the unknown prospect I referred to in the Orioles' proposal? Turns out the pitching prospect the Orioles wanted was either Lance Broadway or Brandon McCarthy. Neither player was on the list agreed upon earlier, and the Sox scoffed at the idea of including Broadway or McCarthy. Despite reports in both the Chicago Tribune and Chicago Sun-Times today, the deal is very much alive at this point. Unfortunately, my source is more involved with the financial approval aspect of the deal (hence the statement that the Sox will take the payroll up to $105MM if necessary). He's been cut off from personnel discussions, so this is probably the end of the line as far as the info goes. So we get no more info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felix Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Lance Broadway or Brandon McCarthy? Wow, they are asking for way too much.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan4life_2007 Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 I'd be all for dealing Broadway if we hadn't already traded Gio and Haigwood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Although I believe Broadway has passed this deadline by now but I will ask anyway. What is the minimum amount of time you have to wait before being able to trade your draft pick? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RME JICO Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Shouldn't it be more like this: My secret double agent informant from Soxtalk.com has stopped posting and until he does I will have no new speculative information to pass along to you.

RockRaines Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Well, first of all, even if it was true, asking for the count, uribe and either BMAC or Broadway is downright insane, and KW would hang up on the O's. People need to realize that BMAC isnt going anywhere, and since we traded haig and Gio Broadway is pretty much untouchable. We DO need at least one pitching prospect worth a damn.
