soxpride77 Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Offmann just said Carlos Lee was also a possibility on the last 670 scoreboard report. Said there was a better chance of Soriano though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Very interesting. I don't see where Lee would work since Pods really isn't an option in CF. I have to think there is something going on or in KW's mind that none of us are thinking about or know of. Whether he has another move in mind (Paulie or Thome being moved for some major piece that frees up a DH spot for one of these bats) or we are going to acquire a new leadoff hitter. Maybe we get Soriano and than deal him and uribe for Furcal, cash, Broxton, and a boatload of prospects? Just throwing something out there cause Soriano could make some sense since he leads off, but Lee none. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxpride77 Posted July 24, 2006 Author Share Posted July 24, 2006 I don't really understand why we would want Lee, unless it was to ship him elsewhere. I can understand trading for Soriano and keeping hime, but not Lee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 This just has to be KW trying to drive up the price of people to move talent out of the AL Central. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosMediasBlancas Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Carlos Lee is NOT coming here, Ozzie doesn't like him, period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balance Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Lee? I don't see that happening. Remember how he was moved out of here because he didn't fit the "Ozzie Ball" mold? He's not the kind of guy who will slide hard into second base to break up a double play.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LVSoxFan Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Carlos Lee is soooooo 2004 and everything that was wrong with it. The idea of bringing him back is absurd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodAsGould Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 well the one good thing about Clee is Marte is gone who seemed to have the biggest problem with him... but yeah I dont see Carlos coming back either even though he was one of my favorites.

bjm676 Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 The only way and reason Carlos Lee gets traded here is so that KW can flip him to another team. He WILL NOT stay here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanger Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 Interesting thought here, how about acquiring C. Lee just to flip him for Soriano. The Brewers have all but said they don't think they can afford to resign him....Interesting... Probably far from happening, but a 3 teamer including Sox, Nats, Brewers, could make for some very interesting rosters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thus, he'd have no interest in Carlos Lee, because he's a free agent after this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee? I think arguements could be made for both, but your probably right, why trade Soriano, just to have to fight C. Lee for a contract, unless somehow it could be done as a sign/trade.

Kenny obviously DOESNT want the Tigers/Twinks to get stronger, for that will be the last you hear of the SOX this season. However, I also think there will be a 3 team deal happening with us being shocked at one of our players being moved to acquire someone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
