BearSox Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 QUOTE (JPN366 @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 10:26 PM) What do you guys think KW could get from Cleveland for him? We won't trade him to Cleveland unless for some unknown reason they give up something worth while for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilmot825 Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 The question isn't what can KW get for Gobble?, it should be Why do the Indians want Gobble? It makes sense to why Cleveland is in last. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackBetsy Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 We should just make sure he's in the division so that Konerko can hit off of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

witesoxfan Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 you trade Gobble to Cleveland instantly. It's not like he's good. If anything, trading him to Cleveland probably helps the Sox win a couple more games this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Nobody with a brain would want Gobble. He is one of the worst pitchers to ever take the mound in Chicago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Just what we need, Josh Barfield or Andy Marte! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogan873 Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 They can trade him to the Indians for the guarantee that he will pitch in every game the Sox play against the Indians. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoSox05 Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 You know your bullpen is in trouble when you might think about trading for Jim Gobble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elrockinMT Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 The Indians would want Gobble for the same reason the Sox did. Lefties are in demand. He can pitch in the bullpen and still has some value. What is a fair return is a question I can't answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can pitch in the bullpen and still has some value. What is a fair return is a question I can't answer. His leftiness has to be a major factor. Heck, the Sox have a handful of relievers in AAA that I'd think they would rather have, and could be had for near-nothing, but they pitch righthanded.

Pick a random player from the lower levels of the Indians system who is totally unheralded and probably has a 5% chance of ever making the big leagues and a 0.1% chance of ever being really good. That's fair value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's fair value. Exactly. At this point, we were ready to cut him loose for nothing. If a team actually WANTS to give us anything for him, you do it.
