harfman77 Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 QUOTE(elrockinMT @ Jul 6, 2007 -> 11:03 AM) Pitching is what wins games and you build your team around. If you have stars like Buerhle and Garland you keep them and add youth around the experienced winners that you have. Vazquez is another real good one, but I think it's a toss up whether he gets traded or not. The guy has so much potential and we are starting to see some real great outings from him. Ifg any pitcher gets traded I think its Contreras to the Mets. Buerhle will sign that extension and stay with the Sox. I like Dye also, but whether the Sox try and keep him is a real question. He is having a down year like so many others on this team and I think he can still hit like he did last year and in 2005. You can't say he is washed up when his numbers are really no worse than Konerko's and Thome's. I agree, but hopefully you can get come young quality arms in return for some of our guys, plus some additional positional prospects that can help you out. If you trade Javy to the Mets and get back Pelfrey, and an OF prospect it gives you an arm you can plug into the rotation now, though Pelfrey needs some tuning, plus a piece you can plug in the OF. You save a lot of money that way that you can reinvest into player development and to add veteran players in the offseason, like Jason Jennings.

Says Ichiro atop the Sox wish list. http://www.suntimes.com/sports/baseball/wh...soxip06.article I'd be very happy if those were part of the plans. Based on that it sounds like it would be Jose and Javier that are dealt. However, I want to be very clear that if the Sox deal Javier they better intend on giving Garland an extension.

BearSox Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 If we do go after Ichiro, I'd assume Iguchi might be staying... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BHAMBARONS Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 QUOTE(BearSox @ Jul 5, 2007 -> 01:21 PM) It said he is unhappy in Arizona... why is that? Because of the way Moorad and Kendrick handle the team. They have completly snubbed him in contract talks. He has said he likes AZ and would like to stay here but KENCO seem to have their minds set on him leaving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
