Frank_Thomas Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 QUOTE (Wanne @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 01:40 PM) If we got Owings and Davidson I'd be giddy! Ditto, personally as long as Owings was a part of the deal I'd be giddy, dude could be nasty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulstar Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 (edited) QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 01:35 PM) I would also take Ian Kennedy back if I had to I agree. Plus, Kubel and Kennedy are both guys who have shown success in the past, so its not of the question that they both remember how to play good baseball again next year either. I actually really love the idea of Kubel and Kennedy coming back to the Sox as throw ins to balance out cash in the deal (Overall, I think the D-Backs would have to add 4-5 million to their payroll which is certainly doable for them regardless of what they say). Could turn out to be moves that really help the team next year, and if they suck, it's only one year of Kubel and you can dump Kennedy.

GreenSox Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Yea, Kubel could help even out the money and that might work if we dump Rios. The Sox certainly have been willing to add overpaid veterans in the past. But Phil acts like he's a centerpiece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulstar Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 This might be a bad suggestion, but would it make any sense to package De Aza in a package with Peavy to ARI if it got Adam Eaton back as one of the prospects? Something like: Peavy and De Aza for Kubel, Kennedy, Eaton, Owings, and Holmberg I don't know, probably unrealistic and I am just coming up with random ideas because I've fallen in love with Eaton as a prospect.

He does have some major league ready pieces with not place to play them. Owings and Davidson should be up but are blocked by Hill, Gregorious and Prado for the forseeable future.

In a sense I think we are, the years of KW "rebuilding on the fly" left this club (at least IMO) feeling like there was no direction. It was watching the ChiSox dwindle in mediocrity and without no hitters and perfect games and deadline deals they were actually really disappointing to watch for repeating the same mistakes in player choice. At least now there is a direction of finding guys that are talented and close to the majors and attempting to ACTUALLY rebuild. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cabiness42 Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 I have a browser window opened up to https://twitter.com/search/realtime?q=%23Wh...ox&src=hash and literally one minute apart there were tweets saying that Arizona is the front-runner for Peavy and that Arizona is no longer interested in Peavy.
