Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death


Who likes the Sox farm system? Billy Beane.

The White Sox have had a poor decade when it comes to developing hitters, but that does not faze Billy Beane.  The A's just traded Dan Haren to the Diamondbacks for six prospects.  Among them are two guys Kenny traded to Arizona over the past few months, Aaron Cunningham and Chris Carter.  

Maybe Beane sees something in these two.  If they both pan out, Kenny will have developed more hitting talent for Oakland than his own team.  Then again, had Josh Byrnes kept Cunningham and Carter to go with Chris Young, we could say the same of Arizona.

Interesting...
2 minor league soldiers
2 crappy relievers
2 good prospects

And Oakland only had to pay for the two good prospects. The others were free.

I'm not crying in my soup over any of these guys, I do like Richar and Quentin better than Carter and Cunningham, especially right now.
