A Deeper Look: What Should Kenny Do?

Jason, your proposed trade with the Giants hit a snag within just two days (trading Bart and Flash for young pitchers).  Two of your selected targets (Ainsworth and Foppert) just cooled off the red hot Rockies with lights out performances.  I don't think those guys are available.

Ya, but they weren't the key pieces. I kind of doubt that they would move Ainsworht. I also doubt they would move Foppert, but the other guy would be a very solid pickup to go with the other two starters.

 

I'd love to get Foppert or Ainsworth. The thing I like about the Giants is that they don't overhype their prospects. Their guys are the real deal.

Here's some alternative possibilities.

 

The Giants could acquire Koch and Loaiza instead of Colon. I couldn't see them adding two guys with high salaries. The Giants would definately be willing to give up 2 of their top prospects and one of their guys in the majors or two of their top prospects in the minors and two of their top position prospects.

 

As someone else mentioned; Colon and Koch could go to Philly although I wouldn't do it unless Myers was a part of that deal and Marlyn Byrd or something like that.

 

As Cerb mentioned the Angels could definately use Koch; A Koch and Loaiza deal could be of value here. They could also use Flash, Wunsch or even Glover.

 

Red Sox could be interested in Buehrle or one of the pitchers or even Koch. They don't have much to offer other then Freddy Sanchez.

 

Dodgers could have some interest in Carlos Lee or Frank Thomas if he keeps hitting. They have a few guys in AA/A ball that are really pretty good.

Jason and I were throwing around some names, and in some of our trade possibilities, they'd give him up. Also, we decided that when KW is fired/resigns, we're going to apply for s***s and giggles.

That'd be funny and cool as hell if JR hired you guys as a dual GM....it'd be cheap for him, and you guys would be smoking some fine Cubans.

 

And then you'd get to run the White Sox.

 

Everyone would be happy....JR would not have to pay a lot....you guys would be getting a ton....and we'd actually have some people with a f***ing clue running the team.

Lol, it would be so great. First order of business; Soxfans appreciation day. One day where all Sox fans could go to the game for free.

 

Seriously, if I bought a team that is the first thing I'd do. Give thanks for all the loyal fans that suffered through all the years of utter crap play.

 

Mike and I would be so stoked. I won't give you any of the can't spend .50 cents if we have one dollar. It would be more of the, donate a 50 cent cd to me so we can sign a player :D
