ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 I think I'd rather keep Beckham though. At the very least, he plays very good D at 2B. I prefer my 2B suck than my corner OF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chetkincaid Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 The Diamondbacks are willing to trade prospects. Good trade partners for the White Sox? Maybe they'll send some of their prospects for Danks, Floyd or Thornton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemon_44 Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 I read where the Phillies offered Dominic Brown for Gio but the A's didn't think that was enough. I would think he'd be enough for Danks or in some kind of deal for Qunetin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they'll include Konerko in any trade request. I could see it happening. Why keep him around if the team is rebuilding. Plus it seems like Dunn really needs to play somewhere in the field if there is any hope of salvaging his career with a bounce back year.

fathom Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Sounds like CJ Wilson might pull the trigger for the Marlins soon. I'll be very surprised if the Rangers don't go hard after Danks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be very surprised if the Rangers don't go hard after Danks. Wouldn't that mean that the Rangers would be more likely to give up more talent now than they would have been before Wilson signed with the Marlins? I applaud KW for holding steady and "asking for the moon". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they'll send some of their prospects for Danks, Floyd or Thornton. Floyd and Thornton + $2M for Jarrod Parker, Adam Eaton, and Ryan Wheeler. Danks for Yasmani Grandal and Homer Bailey. Konerko + $8M for Paul Goldschmidt, Clay Zavada, and Keon Broxton Dunn to 1B Quentin to DH Rios to RF De Aza to CF Viciedo to LF Goldschmidt backs up Dunn Flowers and Grandal duke it out for backup C Bailey's our new 3 Zavada maybe helps out in garbage innings. The rest go to the farm, until you get hot for a bit and then we trade you. We can't develop players. Thank god were starting to realize this and trading at peak value, like the Santos trade.

flavum Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Unless Beckham requested to leave, I don't think you do it for another year. I want him to have at least one year with Ventura and Manto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtySox Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 (edited) This has been a fun thread so far. Thanks to all the posters with sources (Rock, Bucket, that guy with a generic Sox name) for giving us an inside look at the process and dealings. Very appreciated.

hi8is Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 “It’s not the worst thing in the world to go into the season with pitching that you like and position players that you like and you just hope a few of them will rebound. If we can do a little bit of both, rebuilding of the minor-league system and compete at the major-league level, that’s not the worst thing in the world. We’ll try to evolve from there.” -Kenny Williams Man Kenny, I liked you a lot more when it was 2006. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He still can't alienate large portions of his fan base by outwardly proclaiming re-building. Even though that's what he's obviously doing. This is classic marketing PR fodder- don't acknowledge you're s***ting on your product, even if you're s***ting on your product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually liked that quote. I've said all along as long as we are saddled with some big contract veterans it's better to tinker and hope the underachievers of last year achieve.
