Steve9347 Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 (edited) What the hell, predict what you got. You don't have to say who's going the other way, but you have to call what players are coming in... Wite and I collectively agree on the following: Erik Bedard + Adrian Beltre in one deal Edited December 4, 2008 by Steve9347 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RockRaines Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 4, 2008 -> 04:57 PM) My guess on who that would be: Ben Sheets I would say plan B is a FA bat worth about 2 years 18-22 million with an option for a 3rd.

Cowch Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Thome to the Rays for Crawford Thought of it on the spot haha. My guess is KW is going to try to sign one of CC, Manny, Furcal, or Teixera. But to get Tex he would have to trade either PK or Thome. So I'm saying in the end Crawford and Tex. If only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 One thing to keep in mind about Sheets: prior to the Sox trading for Garcia about 5 years ago, KW's main target was said to be Sheets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 Trade for Taveras. Sign Juan Rivera for LF. Dye traded for a young MLB-ready starting pitcher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 (edited) I think they will sign either Lowe, Sheets or Abreu if they trade Dye. Maybe 2 of them. They have all been known to interest the Sox in the past and KW usually always gets his guy, even when its a few seasons too late. I will also shock the world and even though I really don't think it will happen say KW will trade AJP and sign a toasted Ivan Rodriquez to catch for a couple years while waiting for Flowers. Abreu and Rodriquez are Ozzie's buddies. Edited December 5, 2008 by Dick Allen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2nd_city_saint787 Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 im hoping for a dye, Jenks, and prospects to the mets for Pelfry, Jesus Fernando Martinez, Daniel Murphy then the sox sign Adam Dunn and Chad Cordero Giving us.... 1. Lexi SS (why hasnt he been talked about as a lead off hitter for this team, he can be our Soriano, when he was good) 2. Daniel Murphey 2b 3. Jim Thome DH 4. TCQ RF (having him bat 4th so he can break up the big lefties) 5. Adam Dunn LF 6. PK 1b 7. AJP C 8. Fields/Betemit platoon 3b 9. Jesus CF 1. Buehrle 2. Floyd 3. Danks 4. Pelfrey 5. whoever wins the 5th starter spot in spring training Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 I just don't see the logic in swapping out Dye and essentially replacing him with Abreu. Sheets and Lowe are definitely off the list, there's no way we can give them $14-16 million per season (on a shorter deal). AJP isn't going anywhere yet.
