Cerbaho-WG Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 ESPN says that Thomas is looking into signing with the Orioles. Uh oh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 Well if Thomas leaves, then it means Lee will move to DH and the Sox will definately have to pick up another outfielder and then just sign a free agent pitcher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it doesn't. They can put Liefer there, don't get me wrong, Liefer blows, but that is an option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Showtime Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 Thomas can be interested all he wants but it takes 2 to tango. Always wanted to use that line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry all If we all read the samething, it was list of players the O's have targeted. They won't get any of them, so they may go after Thomas.

Guest hotsoxchick1 Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 if schu goes to balt you can bet frank will be shortyl behind him....wonder how cal will take this news when he becomes part owner....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ventura23fan Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 I also agree that if either Thomas or Schu go to Baltimore, the other will follow. I also was a part of the "other" board. I havent posted for awhile, but I religiously read the posts everyday! As far as KW.....f*** HIM! I am tired of getting pissed off about how he is f***ing up our team! DAMN IT DAMN IT DAMN IT!!! :**** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 Great point Michelle and Ventura. I forget that Schu wants to interview for the Orioles job and he will definately bring Frank in. Of course I like the guy they had playing first last season(A rookie, his name isn't coming to me right now) but he also can play outfield. Frank would be a good fit for the O's, who actually had a pretty solid season last year. I don't know how they did it, but they managed to.

greg775 Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 Me thinks thomas is a bad fit with Balt. Just another Conine. He need to go to Fenway or stay with us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doubleM23 Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 Here's the story from The Baltimore Sun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 From what I can see, it looks like Thomas would like to go their, but the Orioles aren't too interested. Does anyone get the idea that Tellum and Thomas are trying to act like he has value so they have some leverage in negotiating a deal with the Sox?

Guest hotsoxchick1 Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 not at all.. i do believe that they do have some interest in thomas... they are in need of a decient bat.... and who better to fill that spot...i hope he does in fact get a deal there....with the latest rumor i have heard it would serve kenny right............maggs to new york?? could be possible next...........according to the latest rumor mill anyhow........we soon shall see..........

Chisoxfn Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 What, the Mets or Yanks are looking at Maggs? Well I'll make the trade if they want to give us Bernie Williams and Derek Jeter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hotsoxchick1 Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 yanks supposedly.......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 This Maggs thing to the Yanks pisses me off. Torre loves Maggs. And why wouldn't he? The guy is one of the best in the game. If the Yanks get Maggs from us, that's it for me. That is when I will stop following baseball. We all have our breaking points and mine is if we trade Maggs to Yanks, Mets or anywhere. I don't care who we get ... 11 prospects. It will be a joke. Maggs goes I'm out forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hotsoxchick1 Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 if maggs goes i guess i have to pack up the house, put it on the market, and move to new york... good gosh i do hope this is a huge rumor because i HATE new york..........lol........maggs goes so do i........

Molto Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 ordonez isn't going anywhere. that is a rumor and nothing else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 This better as hell be a rumor, because it's a bad one at that. We are "trying" to improve right now, so the logical thing to do is bring in players that are good and will help the team do well....not trade away your best goddamn player. Maggs is just now entering the prime of his career....this is a guy that could be a triple crown threat, and I mean that with all seriousness. I wouldn't even take Williams and Jeter for Ordonez....it would take something along the lines of $50 million, Andy Pettitte and Mo Rivera.....I believe Maggs is worth that much to. You don't trade a franchise player....you just don't do that kind of s***. It's against common sense. If you were to trade the franchise player, would that not make you the dumbest piece of s*** in the world? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hotsoxchick1 Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 rumor or not its a scarry thought isnt it.. espically when we have mad kenny at the wheels here............. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
