Shedding Rios' salary is not areason to trade Thornton for someone we probably can't use. I think Rios can be dealt by himself. Anything is possible. I was told sometime earlier no one would take Teahan either

If someone was willing to take Rios' or Dunn's entire contract, the deal would be done. KW wouldn't waste his time negotiating and giving the other club or clubs any time to change their minds.

And rightfully so...

My sources tell me that several teams are interested in Alex Rios right now and are willing to send the Sox two lesser prospects with the Sox absorbing 110 % of Rios' contract.

 

:lolhitting

 

I love this guy. I still can't believe he predicted the Adam Dunn suckfest.

I still don't think its smart to write off adam dunn.

 

If he hit 25 homers the rest of the season we'd probably win it all.

But it seems like the best we can hope for him is an occasional single off the wall.

So did my brother.

 

But he also said Hudson would be nothing because he had a rough start, there is no "overpay" when prospects are involved, and E-Jax was an outstanding pickup.

 

Also, he believes Ozzie is an amazing manager.

 

So, what Balta said.

110%? Ok that makes alot of sense. We are so desperate to give a player away we will PAY YOU

Did anyone hear that the Astros also sent $1 million to the Phillies as part of that Pence deal?

 

Weird.

I believe it was $2M to keep the Phillies under the luxury tax threshold.
