RME JICO Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 (edited) QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 01:38 PM) Good morning and welcome to the "Manny to the Dodgers" thread! That is what you get for multiple tabs open at the same time. I almost did it twice, posting about the Pirates in the Griffey thread.

Soxbadger Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Hmm so could it have been the Sox were going to send some one to the Dodgers, but then they got Manny instead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxbrian Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Wow. All these years- when I think of the Sawx, I think of Manny. B****ed in an attempt to get out of Boston before 2004, it never happened. After he won that title and another last year, I thought he'd be a Sawck for life. Good luck to Manny in LA. D-Backs- THEY GONE! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balta1701 Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 QUOTE (YASNY @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 12:38 PM) So the Pirates traded Nady, Marte and Bay for a slew of minor leaguers. And they'll trade these guys in 3 years for more more kids. Typical of the Pirates. Well, they at least got a decent haul to build from. If they were to also draft well as well as developing these guys, then they could easily put themselves in a Rays like position in 3 years or so. But those are all big "If"s. Pittsburgh's drafts always seem to completely implode, don't they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. 1999 - Took Bobby Bradley 8th, and Zito went 9th, Sheets went 10th 2000 - Sean Burnett, injuries killed his buzz 2001 - Vanbenshotten, and these names where still around after he was selected Youkilis, Bonderman, Wright, Crosby, Ryan Howard. 2002 - #1 pick was Bullington, ahead of Upton, Fielder, Francis, Swisher, Blanton, Kazmir, Francoeur, Hamels, Cain 2003 - Maholm screw the rest, they suck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockRaines Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 QUOTE (RME JICO @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 03:37 PM) I thought the Pirates would get more. They clearly won this deal, what else could they have gotten? Meanwhile the Dodgers continue to draw huhs? from the baseball community.

Woulda made more sense to go straight prospects to Pitt for Bay IMO. Manny is lazy f***. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBAHO Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Pittsburgh sure got a lot of prospects over the past few days. It's good to see Huntington actually making some moves though, unlike the previous GM Dave Littlefield, who just well, did nothing at all.

Harry Chappas Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 The Red Sox paying his whole salary and the Dodgers giving nothign up is huge for them. The Dodgers have sixty million doller defenseless outfield in Manny, Pierre and Jones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metz Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 The Dodgers will be getting draft picks next season for Manny 4:05pm: Peter Abraham says Manny's team options were removed and he has agreed to decline arbitration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't imagine Kemp won't be seeing regular time still even after this, for both defense and the fact that he's hitting better than either of the money guys.
