Dunt Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Starting to get a bad feeling that nothing of consequence is going to happen here and Hahn has been overplaying his hand. Atleast they are a game away from being the second overall pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hi8is Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 You're getting tired of waiting - we're all getting tired of waiting. More importantly... I hope that Texas, St. Louis, Oakland, Arizona, etc are getting tired of waiting as well. Hopefully it's just driving up the return we get. Boring as nails but hell, it's fine... We can be a little more bored together until Wednesday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 (edited) Right now I'd settle for trading Rios for whatever Hahn can get (I'm sure I'll be pissed if Sox have to pay a lot of his salary while he's doing the Rios thing for another team), Lindstrom and Crain (if it's possible to deal a guy on the DL) for whatever Hahn can get and a trade of Dunn again for whatever Hahn can get. For the life of me, I can't see getting a very productive return on any of those guys. Hopefully I'm mistaken. I wonder if we'll all be surprised and Paulie would approve a trade to a contender and will be dealt to an NL team. I don't want to see him on a Central Division team or something like that. I always liked Peavy and if we keep him, maybe our front office will try harder to get some offense via free agency this offseason, figuring our starting pitching is robust.

Could be waiting a while Generally,selling teams cave on their demands or before the 31st because something is better than nothing.. But we won't because we don't have to trade any of these guys except for Lindstrom, and he won't bring anything anyway. And I think teams know that and one will cave on the 31st...at least I hope so. IN particular, St Louis has to cave for Alexei...they have to do something to upgrade that position.

GreatScott82 Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 I am starting to wonder about Hahn. Whats the hold up? I understand wanting to wait for the best possible deal for guys like Peavy and Rios until Wednesday. However, we should have shipped off guys like Alexei, Lindstrom and Keppinger by now. So far the "Hahn sitting on his hands theory" is looking more and more true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iWiN4PreP Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 I haven't logged on here for a while. To be honest, the current crop of players bore the hell out of me. I am looking at this trade deadline and seeing all the rumors of Peavy, Rios, Lindstrom, Ramirez, etc. and the more trades that do happen, the happier I will be. This has a potential to spike my interest in the team again. I sincerely do hope something occurs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hope they don't get to November and December and really regret something about late July. But will we ever know what they could have done? Probably not, and they'll lie about it anyway.

I'll probably be concerned if the Sox send a lot of money with those guys because I believe that will affect our future payroll. I would not be mad if this happened. ... Rios- Traded for 2 prospects of any kind (good prospects, bad prospects dnt matter) and sending NO MONEY with him. Dunn - See Rios trade. Peavy - Trade him for one good prospect, one prospect of any kind and send NO MONEY. So I am not asking for much. If we trade Sale or Reed I'd like 2-3 STUDS in return please.
