JPN366 Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 Acquiring Rios wouldn't necessarily mean the end of Wise's stay I'd imagine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Sox get Rios then Kotsay is probably on the way out. Wise goes nowhere. And watch Wise start in CF over Rios, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course the Sox aren't mentioned... according to ESPN the only Sox they know are the Red ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both teams would make some sense, San Fran moreso, but if I was reading what you posted earlier correctly, would he have to get past the whole AL before he got to either of them?

J.P. Ricciardi didn't get into specifics with MLB.com's Jordan Bastian and just said it's normal to place players on waivers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPN366 Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 (edited) How about Wise for Rios? Now I'd stand up and applaud that. Edited August 7, 2009 by JPN366 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 7, 2009 -> 04:53 PM) And look what he did with it. Dewayne Wise is 2 for his last 2. One resulted in a home run, the other a game winning RBI single. What's Ozzie waiting for? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wise would have to clear waivers first, and Ozzie would be too worried that someone else would claim him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 It does make some sense from the Sox point of view. The real question would be the money and whether ownership felt they could invest in another cheaper player next year and get similar production.

His ride off of the perfect game catch has nearly ended as it is. Acquiring Rios would be the end of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
