Previously: "Dye trades are 'dead' for now"
by Jon Heyman
LAS VEGAS — A person familiar with the White Sox’s thinking said late Monday night, "The Jermaine Dye trades are dead … for tonight, anyway.’’
The Rays, Braves and Reds are among 10 teams to express interest in Dye. The White Sox already have traded Javier Vazquez and Nick Swisher, and are letting shortstop Orlando Cabrera leave as a free agent.
They’d consider dealing Dye, but surely not for fallen Reds pitching prospect Homer Bailey. They’d need a lot more than that for a middle-of-the-order hitter like Dye.
The White Sox are always one of the most aggressive, creative teams, so it will be interesting to see whether they will utilize all their new-found spending money.

The greatest trick the White Sox ever pulled was convincing their fan base that "Ozzieball" ever existed.
kenny's blueprint?
One National League general manager sensed that White Sox general manager Ken Williams is following a blueprint somewhat similar to what he did before the 2005 season.
When Williams traded outfielder Carlos Lee to Milwaukee, it enabled the Sox to not only acquire Scott Podsednik and Luis Vizcaino but also sign free agents Tadahito Iguchi and A.J. Pierzynski. The GM added that Williams could “bottom-feed” from the pool of free agent still available in January, especially with money freed up from any trade involving Jermaine Dye.

with the market sluggish, there could definitely be a glut of leftovers

more dye
The White Sox have been relatively low key at the Bellagio. The market for Jermaine Dye may not be fully realized until some of the free-agent options (Manny Ramirez, Adam Dunn, Bobby Abreu and Raul Ibanez) start signing deals but look for Dye to eventually be moved

Indians Close to Deal with Wood
According to MLB.com’s Anthony Castrovince, the Indians appear closer to a two-year deal with Kerry Wood. The deal may contain a third-year option.
Thank you,
these bumblefucks think the Sox are going to trade Dye. I said I would cancel my membership on here in martyrdom of Dye being traded.
that's kind of surprising.
nothing gets ‘em wetter than infrequent postings on the city’s second favorite team
why exactly?
are they not planning on contending next year? i thought the indians would be a popular pick to win a week al central next year. Getting wood to help a poor at best bullpen would probably enhance their chances.
brndnprkns: I'm pretty sure the "badass" value of your life is closer to Gigli than The Dark Knight
Its surprising in that the Indians
signed a somewhat pricey free agent
Thank you,

in terms of dollars/win
i doubt there’s a bargain to be had in a high profile reliever and shapiro doesn’t have a big payroll.
nothing gets ‘em wetter than infrequent postings on the city’s second favorite team
true, but if they see this as a piece to getting into the playoffs
and therefore having home playoff games and more revenue… the extra cost for wood would be made up by that extra money coming in. while i don’t know or have a number, i would imagine making the playoffs + hosting even one playoff game is quite a bit of extra money for the franchise
brndnprkns: I'm pretty sure the "badass" value of your life is closer to Gigli than The Dark Knight
this would have to be the precursor to more spending, in other words?
unless the Tigers, Twins and Sox are also done for the season, the Indians are not a 90 win team now.
nothing gets ‘em wetter than infrequent postings on the city’s second favorite team
if Wood manages a 3.5 FIP for 60 IP, average for a reliever is 4.25 and his leverage is 1.75
that’s about 1 WAA.
nothing gets ‘em wetter than infrequent postings on the city’s second favorite team
but if he strikes out 20 guys in one game
he will be AWESOME
i think it's a good signing for cleveland
takes some real stones for the one certifiable cocksucker on here to jump into this convo.-mm
I realize you are using Marcel for Wood's FIP, but
to me that is really high. His FIP was 2.32 this year. I think the bigger issue is predicting 60 IP, but I will bet anyone his FIP is well below 3.5 . . . and I think Shapiro thinks so as well. Plus, look at the upgrade from last year’s stack of shit they had at the end of games.
i was trying to get an approximate median between
his IP expected and FIP expected, which realistically are going to be in very high variance (optimally, i’d be expressing these as probability tables). it’s a solid signing and all…but i just don’t like the idea of spending a lot of money on a closer. i haven’t even seen the money yet, so yeah. i don’t have a solid opinion on this yet.

Nope
I could see him being an asshole and trying to still pick the successor…
The recent state park closing/human services cuts were in direct response to him feeling he got snubbed in Denver during the DNC. He was in Denver a little less then 24 hours (flew in on Wednesday, left early Thursday)… He was upset he didn’t get invited to any of the events… according to some note I found on the street
any idea how long to impeach him?

Braves prospects
I wonder if Dye would bring back one of the Braves’ three potential CFers Brandon Jones, Jordan Schafer, or Gorkys Hernandez. Jones is already in the majors and Hernandez looks like a slap-hitting speedster, but Schafer looks like the best of the bunch to me.
I WANT A REAL CFer.
Can they field?
"I am not going out like SSH. "
by WTGTD, 12/3/08
Shafer and Hernandez can
I don’t know about Jones… He shouldn’t be in the discussion anyway.
Shafer’s the best, at least right now, as he’s both good and closer to the majors. But he also got busted for PED usage, had to sit out 50 games, then had a really slow start to AA. Hernandez has ridiculous upside, Kenny Lofton type upside. He has the opportunity to grow into someone with all 5 tools (though I don’t know about his arm).

He can always run the ball to home plate like JO

Josh Kalk: The engima that is Javier Vazquez
Javier Vazquez has some of the nastiest stuff in the big leagues yet hasn’t really ever emerged as a consistent front line starter. With two years and $23 million dollars left on his contract the White Sox traded him to the Braves last week. Was this a keen pilfer by Braves GM Frank Wren or will he be getting the same headcase that Ozzie Guillen has been complaining about for years? Why can’t Vazquez translate that immense talent into results?

Did you know about his (Werth's) lineage?
Werth comes from an athletic family. He is the son of Jeffrey J. Gowan (who led all Division I wide receivers in receptions while playing football for Illinois State University in 1976, and played in the St. Louis Cardinals minor league affiliate, the Johnson City Cardinals in 1978) and Kim Schofield Werth, who competed in the U.S. Olympic Trials in the long jump and 100 meters. He is also the grandson of Ducky Schofield and nephew of Dick Schofield, both Major League Baseball infielders, and stepson of Dennis Werth, who played in parts of four seasons with the Kansas City Royals and New York Yankees from 1979-1982.

Robothal: A's show interest in Cabrera
The A’s, who last week withdrew their four-year offer to Rafael Furcal, met late Monday night with the agents for another leading free-agent shortstop — Orlando Cabrera. The team’s interest in Cabrera, however, is “very limited,” according to one source, “mild at best.”
If the A’s do not sign a shortstop, they will simply use Bobby Crosby as their starter again next season.

THE drunkest I’ve ever been, hands down, was that night – I remember about 1/2 of it (drank gin for the first and last time). I do remember throwing up as we were driving down the Dan Ryan at 4:30 AM (out the window – I had some class, after all). Sober, I was appalled at the women. Drunk I was told I danced with them all.

BREAKING NEWS FROM JOE COWLEY
One day after winning “PR Guy of the Year,” the Sox’ Scott Reifert couldn’t even get into the media room because he forgot his pass.
Thank you,
these bumblefucks think the Sox are going to trade Dye. I said I would cancel my membership on here in martyrdom of Dye being traded.
larry
I forgot today is Tuesday and larry is usually taking one for the team and doing eightballs at the strip club in support of the Sox.
he probably isn’t getting any reception in the club.
"Jenks, who was never afraid to say "no" to a hamburger..."
isnt it a bit late for larry to be at the strip club...?

Not really, HSA.
Much respect, but he was a stopgap measure last year and we got lucky in that a few of his hits were timely (the GS was nice). He’ll be able to sell a lot of financial services products as a result, and probably won’t have to buy his own drinks in bars.

Then, as most of you forsee...
adding an outfielder and another spare part a few weeks down the line.
also Oliver Perez
could be an option but with Boras being his agent and wanting an Ace type deal for him i doubt that happens. Plus the Sox seem to think too many leftys in the rotation is some kind of problem….

Baldelli is another option
There have been rumors about him in the past and if he can stay healthy he could be a huge impact player for us in center or left field.

I like this strategy.
As far as having a surplus of AAA starters, i think it’s an excellent bullpen insurance. Richard did a decent job last year, and even guys like Ben Price should be utilized there if they can help the club.

I like that rotation
but for some reason the Sox dont have the best faith in Richard. I forsee KW pushing Ozzie to notch Marquez in that 5th spot.
I like Richard a lot because I went to Purdue and he is from Lafayette. He is probably the most deserving, but the Sox might have him come out of the bullpen in the long reliever role.
Spring Training will likely decide the 5th spot
but im still hoping it doesn’t decide both the 4th and 5th spots…

Taveras going to Nats?
9:23 p.m. — Nats discussing deal for Taveras
The Nationals are discussing a trade in which they would acquire center fielder Willy Taveras from the Rockies for right-hander Tim Redding, according to major-league sources.
The addition of Taveras likely would lead to another trade by the Nats, who have four other right-handed hitting outfielders — Josh Willingham, Lastings Milledge, Austin Kearns and Elijah Dukes.
The Nats have been trying to acquire a leadoff hitter who can play center field, a move that would enable Milledge to possibly move to an outfield corner.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What will we talk about?
i guess if you think a guy who is missing both testicles is healthy,
sure.
I like milledge
I think he is the most complete package out of all of those players. Maybe some more plate discipline and he could become a good leadoff hitter. He mostly plays CF anyways.
FUCK FUCK FUCK
REDDING WAS WASTING AWAY IN CHARLOTTE LIKE 2 YEARS AGO AND NOW HES BEING TRADED FOR ONE OF THE GREATEST LEADOFF MEN OF ALL TIME
larry has that system down to a science. Especially with the way the economy is….big wigs like larry coming in dressed in their mink coats and 24k gold cigarrete holders with pockets lined with coke make for a large draw during shift changes.

Right now do you realize we have a4 and 5 of Richard and Marquez, a centerfielder named ANDOWENWISE and a secondbaseman of nixgetzlilli? I know…it’s only December 9.

You're a regular Gleason
What do you see in a 14 ppg with no jumper that makes one think he will be better than a 26ppg\ 12rpg guy? Is there some kind of magic formula that tells you 14 > 26??

Kenny on BA
On the average side, you guys know I’m less concerned with average than on-base percentage.

Kenny: no talks with Atlanta since the Vazquez deal
A rumor linking the Braves to having serious interest in Dye on Tuesday doesn’t stand up presently, with the White Sox not having talked to Atlanta since the Vazquez deal. That trade brought the White Sox four prospects, two in Brent Lillibridge and Tyler Flowers, who could help the 2009 squad. Sending Nick Swisher to the Yankees also yielded right-handed hurler Jeff Marquez, who will contend for one of the rotation’s final two starting slots.
Comments from Williams on filling the fourth and fifth starter from within just might have presented a sign of things to come. As the free-agent market settles, the White Sox could move in and add a veteran arm or outfielder who remains available. With the White Sox bumping up against their payroll limit now, even with the subtraction of almost $17 million in salary through Swisher and Vazquez, Dye might have to go or the White Sox will have to get more creative.
The greatest trick the White Sox ever pulled was convincing their fan base that "Ozzieball" ever existed.

A deal for free agent Rafael Furcal has an outside shot at being completed before the general managers start fleeing Las Vegas on Thursday morning.
Kansas City is working to come up with the money, and the A’s are back in, as are the Dodgers and Toronto. The Royals also have been talking to Orlando Cabrera. The most likely Furcal timeline is Friday to Monday, but then, as one GM said Tuesday night, “If we weren’t here, a lot more could get done.”
