Guest wsc425 Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 Text Well, the second question took care of itself in the delay before my reply. The first, to be honest, is that I have only second-person reports, which I consider rumors not worth writing about. I think we'll start getting to the facts next weekend at the winter meetings but I won't be surprised if Williams moves slow to see what can happen in trades or arbitration-eligible guys who don't get offered contracts on Dec. 20. Wish I could tell you more.

Is there any done deal with Frank Thomas? Is he coming back to the South Siders? In your opinion do you think he's coming back? Thanks for the note. One of the guys the Sox will get is a left-handed pitcher named Neal Cotts, who is was a second-round pick from Illinois State in the 2001 draft. He's a legitimate prospect. I'd expect the other will be less highly regarded. Hope this helps a little. Thanks for the note. And for reading the Tribune.

I was interested in knowing what the tribune had heard about those two players to be named in the deal. If any information could be said, I'd appreciate the info. Also, I was wondering if you heard any more on the ChiSox's pitching situation. My friend and I are wondering whats next up KW (Kenny Williams') sleeve.

Guest wsc425 Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 If you guys want me to ask any ?'s to him, I'll be glad to get you some answers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 If you could, will you ask him if the Sox offered Ritchie abitration and if he has any idea of what the Sox plan to have the payroll at for next year. I'm hoping for 55 mill, cause then they'd definately be able to bring in 2 more pitchers without moving anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
