aboz56 Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 do you know who their pitching prospect are? I don't care who they are, I'm not in favor of trading Buehrle for anyone. Yes, I'm familiar with some of them like Tankersly, Phillips, Howard, Nicolas, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I'm familiar with some of them like Tankersly, Phillips, Howard, Nicolas, etc. phillips, peavy and perez can help and pitch now. let alone several other younger pitchers they have up and coming. in a rotation of young pitching in the minors. sd has 2 or the top starting 3 pitcher with another one makeing the top 5.

I wouldn't consider Peavy or Perez prospects anymore, they've been in the majors part of last season and some of this season now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 I'm glad you aren't running the team then. Buehrle is untouchable, imo. He is underpaid, extremely young, and talented. Best young lefty in the majors, maybe. Zito, Mulder, Buehrle hands down. Now I'd love to get Mulder back to Chicago and team him up with Buehrle.

Chisoxfn Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 Jason, I don't disagree with anything you said in the above post, but I gotta say that it blows my mind when we discuss trading Everett before the Rangers have even made their Christmas selection yet. Does this mean that you think we overpaid for him? That we were taken to the proverbial cleaners? I thought I was the only one here who felt that way. I've heard of "flipping" a piece of real estate before closing, so I guess we could do it with Ev also. I can't say whether the Sox got hosed in the Everett deal or not, not until I see who exactly goes. I really dont' mind losing Webster, Yan or Diaz. The guys I don't want to lose are Pacheco and Rupe. Also, the big reason I'm proponing this trade is cause the Sox would really be ready next year and with Jerry Manuel managing I don't have any faith that the Sox can do it this year. I know the team, on paper, is damn good, but thats it. They've been good on paper all season, even before Alomar and Everett joined, and what has that meant on the field, nothing. Sox should play this thing up if they aren't over .500 and playing ver good by July 27th or 28th. Thats my deadline for things. I wanted Manuel gone at the break and a new manager given 10 or so games to show whether he could get this team playing at the level it is capable of. If they don't, then see ya later Colon, Alomar, Everett, Carlos, Frank (If someone takes him). I'd hold Konerko unless there was an offer from a team willing to pay his entire salary. I'd also deal Koch and Gordon cause they won't be back next year. I'd completely overhaul this team. If I didn't get a good offer, I'd just let the player walk for draft pick compensation. The taem would still have damn good pitching with Buehrle, Elo, and Garland aboard. It would also have a ton of money to spend on guys (Like getting a good shortstop; Matsui or Tejada). Pitching is what wins and this team has a lot of those pieces. Blow up a lot of the offense and rebuild guys around it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Fainter Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 I don't think there is a GM in baseball who would take on Everett as a centerfielder (other than KW). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDF Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 Buehrle is untouchable, imo. He is underpaid, extremely young, and talented. Best young lefty in the majors, maybe. Zito, Mulder, Buehrle hands down. Now I'd love to get Mulder back to Chicago and team him up with Buehrle. first he a very good pitcher, that is one of the reason why he will bring in talent. next is the fact that he wants to play in stl. i am tried of hearing this bs about stl and all that. if he doesn't want to play in chi (by his talk of stl and all that) let get more from him at this time instead of waiting for him to walk. next who is going to say that mulder, zito would want to pitch in chi, a peavy, phillips, perez will be 3 aces. but this is all my wish and not a rumor or anything.
