justBLAZE Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 "Damon played golf Monday with White Sox catcher A.J. Pierzynski and broadcaster Ken “Hawk” Harrelson, according to major-league sources." Hawk? Ladies and Gents, we're in business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThunderBolt Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 (edited) I'm really excited about this. It's great to know that we're making a legit play here. I can't stress enough how much i love A.J. he goes that extra mile for the team. Edited February 17, 2010 by Thunderbolt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogan873 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Damon may not be the ideal fit for the team, but he sure would plug that gaping hole...and make a lot of us feel better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really, the great characters within the organization are... if the Sox were serious, they'd up their bid by 2.5 million and he'd sign. Obviously, he wants the White Sox, but the money (somehow) is in Detroit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 QUOTE (Sockin @ Feb 16, 2010 -> 08:27 PM) Rosenthal says a deal still could happen and might even be close. Pierzynski has been persuading Damon to sign with the Sox. http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/johnny-...hite-sox-021610 Well lets hope that AJ is more convincing that Borass.

Princess Dye Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 (edited) Boras plays hardball with his prime guys, but isnt there some precedent for him taking his lowered-value guys and having em sign one-year just-OK deals? Hope we dont get sunk by not having an OF spot for him... Edited February 17, 2010 by Princess Dye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He either wants the long term deal, or a one year deal. If he can't get a long term deal, he seems to like to get his guys back to FA ASAP.

flavum Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 I actually feel pretty optimistic about Damon signing with the Sox. I think his wife is a huge factor in this, and she has no interest in spending 6 months in Detroit. Maybe he'll take four million, win a championship, and be a free agent again in nine months. Come on, Johnny. Do it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess Dye Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Damen I think you mean. There's a Thome street, though I think it's tiny. At least I can only remember seeing it one place, around 5800 N Ridge or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 I wonder what source Rosenthal got his initial (the wrong one) report from about the Sox making a second offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
