southsider2k5 Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2011/06/yank..._medium=twitter The Yankees claimed pitcher Jeff Marquez off waivers from the White Sox, MLBTR has learned. The 26-year-old righty had been designated for assignment by Chicago on Sunday. Marquez was drafted 41st overall by the Yankees in 2004 and was later traded to the White Sox as part of the Nick Swisher deal in November of 2008.

Milkman delivers Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 I'm much more of a backer of Williams than Guillen (I think they both should go at this point), but those Swisher deals were just the worst. I mean, they were just terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPN366 Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 The Knights pitching staff will be severely short handed now, with Harrell up and Marquez gone. That's two of their five starters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looked pretty good in ST and almost made the team. I was hoping we might actually see some of that talent people used to rave about. Figures.

At least as of now, if you count the fact that we got 4 years of Jim Thome as well...Gavin Floyd + Jim Thome has almost certainly massively outtotaled the people we gave up in WAR. And really...the only guy who is going to change that calculus is Gio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see Jimbo is on the DL or at least working through some medical problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
