I'm in pacific time and just sat down at my computer. That's a general "WTF" for all of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpringfieldFan Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 A coworker of mine who broke this trade to me first is now also saying something about dealing Swisher back to the A's for Street. I don't know where he got that information, but is there any plausibility to that, even if it is pure speculation? SFF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like Griffey, 1/2 of his contract for this season ($2 million) and the cost of his $4 million buyout at the end of the season ($6 million total) for Nick Masset and Danny Richar.

I'm wondering if they'll begin working Dye in at 1B slowly. They don't want Griffey in CF for the long-term. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sircaffey Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 11:17 AM) Please don't question my fandom. Its an argument you will lose. I'm saying Griffey isn't very good anymore. If he's playing CF think Carl Everett in 2003 and Rob Mackowiak in 2006, maybe slightly better. Oh please. Griffey may not have the range anymore, but he'll get good reads and breaks on balls. Crazy Carl and Mack were just clueless out there. Griffey's played a little CF before.

Chisoxfn Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 07:56 AM) I think I've got this figured out... Swisher's headed back to Oakland in a deal involving Duchscherer, whom KW has been after for a couple of weeks. I could see a deal centered around Swisher involving Duch and Street (obviously the Sox would give up more than just Swisher). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
