fathom Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 1, 2011 -> 08:52 PM) Pierzynski, Dunn, maybe Konerko, some of the bullpen guys. Why would anyone take AJP and his 6 mil contract next year? I also don't think teams would take the Dunn/Konerko contracts off our hands that easily.

Soxfest Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 QUOTE (Real @ May 1, 2011 -> 03:53 PM) Buehrle? Really? Research that option he has if we trade him, then reassess your opinion about Buehrle being traded. Nobody will pay MB that money and he has 10-5 no trade clause.

If they really wanted him, the Yanks would have pursued him instead of Posada. Yeah. The Yankees made a mistake last offseason when they signed Posada to a 4 year deal in 2007 rather than Dunn after 2010. They should have predicted that in 3 years they'd want to move Posada to DH and only signed him for 3 years and then not had him walk away.

elrockinMT Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Too bad we have a good starting pitcher putting us in the hole by giving up 6 runs. Kind of ruins the ole Harkeroo saying how we have great starting pitching. We scored 4 runs today, which really seems like we are living high on the hog, but there is always some part of the game that doesn't work for us. Maybe seeing Beckham get a couple hits and Dunn with a homer might mean something good is going to happen for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
