Chisoxfn Posted July 31, 2003 Share Posted July 31, 2003 The only hold up is that Palmerio has to accept his no trade clause back to the team that he came up with. No idea who is involved. Its supposed to be announced at 1:00 in a press conference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFan1 Posted July 31, 2003 Share Posted July 31, 2003 What? I havent heard anything in the BBTN Special and 1:00 has already passed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danman31 Posted July 31, 2003 Share Posted July 31, 2003 Ha, that's funny. The Cubs are going after their former players. ESPN Insider also said they are interested in Matt Stairs, why I don't know. I remember Cubs management hinting at a trade at this position when they said Hee Sop was going down to AAA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JimH Posted July 31, 2003 Share Posted July 31, 2003 I hope they give up a couple of their good pitching prospects to get him. You've got to wonder how quickly a guy like Palmiero can adjust to NL pitching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've got to wonder how quickly a guy like Palmiero can adjust to NL pitching. I think its a really stupid move if they give up anything. Karros has been playing really good and Choi is still very solid and will become a good player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted July 31, 2003 Share Posted July 31, 2003 And keep in mind just because it becomes 3pm, that doesn't mean that other deals haven't been done, and just not announced yet. It usually takes into the evening to sort out all of the details of the trades that are done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted July 31, 2003 Share Posted July 31, 2003 Damn, I like him. I really hate it when the Flubs hire guys I like. Takes some of the fun out of rooting for them. Palmero "Hi sammy, still using cork? Sammy "No, I need to come up with something else . . ." Palmero "Have you thought of Viagra?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted July 31, 2003 Author Share Posted July 31, 2003 Something must of happened here. Either way he'll clear waivers. I heard on the radio that both sides confirmed the deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
