If it wasn't there, it wasn't there. Kenny didn't give Jermaine away. For some f***ed reason, prospects > proven major League talent this year. The pendulum will swing the other way, and I'm sure Kenny would have taken a deal (and pursued many) had they been there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never liked KW, but like many, after 05 I backed off and gave him the benefit of the doubt. But since that he has reminded me of why I really don't like him as a GM.

BearSox Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 I decided to cancel my club as this goes much deeper then KW. It is pretty much the whole ownership, organization, coaching, and scouting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be interested in how other GM's view him-he just doesnt seem to connect with the majority of them-never gets serious offers on possible trades.

witesoxfan Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jul 31, 2007 -> 04:34 PM) well, players that are playing for the sox for a discount. Konerko, Javy, buehrle, Garland.....who else? Only Konerko and Buehrle gave the Sox a discount. Javy signed for market value on a shorter term basis - perhaps you can consider that a hometown discount, but I take discount as less money and not fewer years - and Garland signed his contract with 4.5 years of service time. The contract he signed took out his first year of free agency. You'll be very hard-pressed to find guys who signed contracts after 4.5 years of service time that had bigger contracts and money attached than Garland, who is basically a good starting pitcher with weak peripherals. That's also part of the reason I really doubt you'd see Garland give the Sox a hometown discount following next season. I think he is going to want a market value contract, and that could be 5/$65-75, or, seeing as how he's never (don't quote me) been on the DL, 6 years at the same yearly price. That's an absolute f***ton of money. Perhaps he wasn't in high demand -though I highly doubt that - and if a year and a half of Teix can get Salty, Andrus, Harrison, Jones, and Feliz, what could Garland have gotten? Surely a very good package, even if Thornton had to have been included. Then again, there really wasn't a starting pitcher dealt, so perhaps not. I know the fans really only respond to winning, but the Sox really aren't going to win much the rest of the way anyways; if the Sox had been able to get a huge package like that, they would have taken a huge and very good first step towards rebuilding the franchise. As is, we may be stuck with a similar product next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
