NorthSideSox72 Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 02:50 PM) He's not, he's just like Tyler when it comes to that. Really? I must be thinking of someone else, I thought NYY had a defensive guy at C they were high on, I assumed it was Montero. Clearly I'm not up on some of the prospects in other systems.

NorthSideSox72 Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 QUOTE (docsox24 @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 02:51 PM) Montero is considered a poor defender and will likely move off C. CJ is not a prospect at all CJ is not a prospect worth anything in trade, but that doesn't mean he's entirely not a prospect. I still think he's got a shot to be a utility IF on this team in a year or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kev211 Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 01:52 PM) How is this not GREAT news? It went from Twins leading for him to him going to the Yankees. Please don't tell me you thought the Sox would contend for his services? The Yankees will be unbeatable in the playoffs with Lee so that is what I am more worried about. I hate super teams.

NorthSideSox72 Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Sherman latest: 2:44pm: The Mariners are backing off, according to Sherman. The Yankees believe they are no longer in the Lee sweepstakes, as the M's have gone in another direction (all Twitter links). Sherman says 'the Yankees aren't getting Cliff Lee,' since another team has entered discussions aggressively. Heyman latest: 2:57pm: The Mariners didn't accept the Yankees' offer of Montero, Adams and a third prospect, so the Yankees may walk away from the discussions, according to Jon Heyman of SI.com (via Twitter). I pulled this from MLBTR consolidation. MIN? CHW? Who might the other team be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthSideSox72 Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Just curious... any bats on the Mariners that we could use? I don't see any, other than Ichiro who obviously is not happening. Just in case we try for Lee, wondering if its part of a bigger deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 God I hope the team that "has entered discussions aggressively." is not the Twins or Tigers, and a little nervous as to what we would give up if it's Kenny throwing down offers.

bighurt574 Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 QUOTE (pktmotion @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 01:23 PM) Wow so it looks like Jesus Montero-David Adams-Zach McAllister for Cliff Lee. We could have gotten Lee for Flowers-Retherford-Torres. Unbelievable. I don't get surprised when the Yankees sign top guys in FA, but when they dupe teams into these trades; it's pretty evident how good their front office is. You're a fool if you really think that a Flowers/Retherford/Torres package would even get the M's attention. Montero is a top 5 prospect in all of baseball. We don't even have anyone like that in our system, unless you want to talk about Beckham. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For us, we would have to trade something like Hudson, Flowers, Danks2, and someone else I would believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
